to George Hazen, chief OF the western d.
vision of the secret service. Mr.. Hazen
procured field glass and Wednesday went
up on the postoffice building with the work
man. With the field glass he watched tho
operations of the two men.
His observations made him certain that
the men were at work on counterfeit coins
and Thursday he went to the house with n
search warrant. On being refused admis-
sion ne broke In the doors and found the
men doing what Is known as filing coin;
that Is, finishing them for circulation In
