GANG CAUGHT At LAST.
Eight Italian Counterfeiters Ar
rested by United States De-
tectives at New York.
DIES, PRESSES AND COINS CAPTURED.
AlI-silver CounterfeIts Were Being
Turned Out and Made the Work
of Detection Much More Difficult
SLENDER Clew That Reaulted in
the Final Arrest.

Washington, Jan. THE officials of
the secret service Of the treasury de-
partment, under the direction of Chief
Wilkie, madera number of highly inn
portant arrests in New York Friday
night and Saturday morning. For at
least two months the secret service
people have been at work to discover
the makers Of large number of all
silver counterfeit coins, mostly quar-
ters and halves, which were being free
~ circulated in New York city. The
result has been that Pho Paris and
seven companions, all Italians, were
arrested and are now in Jail awaiting
the action of the United States commits
sioner. The fact that large numbers
of these all-silver counterfeits were
being freely circulated in New York
dnrino AZ. l--t-t-,v-. yoafs mas gwen
Chief Wilkie great deal Of trouble.
The coins being of almost pure silver,
300 fine, and fairly we'll made, they
readily passed wherever presented, and
rendered extremely difficult the task
OF locating the makers and passers.
The arrests came about in this way:
Some time ago two Italians called on
Messrs. Plat & Co., of Gold street,
New York, large dealers in sheet sill
yer and gold, and purchased 1000
ounces of sheet silver. One of the men
was observed at the time Of the pur-
chase to compare one of the sheets
with coin which he took from his
pocket, probably with view of deter
mining whether the sheet was of the
same thickness as the coin he had in
his possession. This circumstance was
made known to the secret service Off
Gals by Messrs. Plat & Co., and a
force was Immediately set to work
upon this new lead. From the fact
that the men took away with them
only small part Of the purchase it
was assumed that they you'd shortly
return for the rest. After time, the
two men again appeared and took
away another small quantity to Ill
Mangin street, on the East side of
New York. From there they were
Swallowed to 95 Watt street, on the
West side.
Well-Equipped Plant.
The Mangin street house, as we'll as
the house on Watt street, was fully
equipped with modern machinery for
rolling silver, punching blanks, etc. In
one of the places new screw press,
weighing five tons, was in operation.
About hundred ounces of silver and
quite a Large basket full of steel dies
were secured. Many of the dies, how.
ever. had been so mutilated as to be be-
yond use. 1t seemed that as soon as
the policemen had given the alarm,
the counterfeiters began to file away
the faces of their dies to prevent them
from being used as evidence. Two of
the men lived at 112 Mulberry street.
New York, and others were scattered
about the neighborhood.
Chief Wilkie said Saturday that the
gang probably was responsible for at
least so per cent. of all the silver coun-
terfeits which have been put in cir
culation in New York during the last
two years.

March, 1882, nine months before his
tranquil competitor, President Van
Buren, and ten years after William
III. Crawford, who struck Calhoun down
with his one unparalyzcd arm.

Calhoun and his wife led out as So

tine he lived in the large Linthlcum
mansion on Georgetown Heights. and
his wife was quoted as woman of
decision. If Webster, with his great
fees, and Clay, with the manufactur-
ers behind him, had to borrow money,
why was Calhoun, who had no practice
and was not very intimate with any
body, above the thought of money ?
