BAD FOR COUNTRRPEITERS.
Secret Service is Hard Pushing

Criminals.
Detectives Kept on Alert to Cope With
Clever and Brainy Schemes for

Passing Illegal Money-The King
of Counterfeiters.
This has been a bad year for crimi
nails. This statement is based on data
brought out at the convention of the
Police Chiefs Association Of New York
State, an address delivered by the
president of the International Associa-
ton of Police Chiefs and by
the operations of the var ious police
bureaus of the United States govern.
ment. The secret service division OF
the Treasury alone caused the arrest of
532 persons charged with serious
crimes. Of those taken into custody
forty-one were arrested for counter
feiting the currency, fifty-two for max
ing alterations in the currency, 344 for
counterfeiting coin and the remainder
for various violations of the United
States statutes. Of the 532 alleged Of
tenders, 1872 were native Americans,
forty-two were Italians (some of whom
were naturalized) and thirteen were
Austrians. The largest number of ar
rests were made in Pennsylvania where
those apprehended numbered ninety
four. New York followed with seventy
seven arrests, Ohio with thirty-fiye,
California with Twenty-Five, Missouri
with twenty-three and in the remaining
Instances every state and territory with
the exception of Alaska was represent
ed
AS compared with last year there
was decrease In the amount of count
erfeit currency seized by government
officers and an increase in the amount
Of counterfeit coin confiscated. The
total face value of the notes seized was
$36,834, against S44,350 the preceding
year, and Of the spurious coin, $24, ITO
as against $16,419 the year before. The
number of plates for printing counter
felt bills captured by the government
was 165 and the number of dies and
molds for casting and stamping count
erfeit coins was asa. Nearly all this
stuff was seized by the Government
before it had been placed in circula-
ton. Nine classes of counterfeit notes
were placed in circulation and of these,
In the opinion of the Treasury Of
1cers only four were cleverly enough
executed to be called dangerous.
RAISING SMALL BILLS.
The feature of the work of makers
Of false money this year was in raising
the denomination of bills. There was
rather a remarkable increase in this
Illicit industry and the raisers we're
particularly busy in circulating these
altered obligations in Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois and other states of the middle
west. 1t is believed by the officers Of
the secret service that the leading Of
tenders in this division of criminal
work were captured, though there is no
doubt that many altered bills are still
passing from hand to hand in the chan
nels of trade. Counterfeiters in the
United States do not restrict their
operations to the manufacture Of Amer
lean money, and one of the skillful
pieces Of work done by the secret SER
vice men was the apprehension Of
three groups Of counterfeiters who
were issuing fraudulent obligations Of
the Austro-Hungarian government.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1906-05-25

Because of the comparative isolation
of Hawaii, its large foreign population
and the amount of silver in circula
ton, it seems that the coming in
dustry has been active there. Chief
Wilkie of the Secret Service has an
nounced that arrangements have been
made for the establishm ent of a branch
Of the service at Honolulu, where in.
dications have pointed to the develop
ment of coming enterprises and it is
hoped that the contemplated measures
Of suppression may be effective"
Another reason why the past year
has been a difficult one with criminals
is that there has been an increase Of
cooperation between the police depart
ment of the various cities, and gen.
eral improvement in criminal identi
fication and police work. AS Richard

POPE TALKS TO GYMNASTS
DELEGATION of French Athletes at the
Vatican Processing Loyalty
to the Pontiff.

Rome, Sept. 9.-Pope Plus this morning
received 600 French gymnasts who are
here to give an exhibition. Their presi-
dent read an address of loyalty to the
pope who, in replying, encouraged the
gymnasts to continue in athletics. which,
he said, strengthened the body. Strength
and courage" said his holiness, are nee
eSsary to maintain faith when many are
losing it: TO remain attached TO the church
when many abandon it; TO practice the
word of God when many Danish it. He
urged them to follow the words or the
Heroic Matatia, who said:
Even if all the cowardly submit to err
ror, 1, my brothers, will obey the religion
OF our fathers"
This passage was commented upon as
probably emphasizing the attitude Of the
pope toward the French government
On leaving the vatican the gymnasts
met and greeted Father WernZ, the new
general of the Society of Jesus.
This afternoon the gymnasts gave an ex-
hibition in the court of st. Damaso In the
presence of Pope Plus and the papal court
and many guests, including the Rev.
Henry Moeller and the Rev. Joseph Grin
