NOT COUNTERFEIT.
Bill Found at Murray Were on Bank
At Savannah.

After thorough inspection 81 The
bogus bills found on Edward cook and
Frank Rowley, who were arrested at
Murray on Tuesday night while pass
ing the currency, II was decided ,hlt
the bills are not counterfeits Of United
states currency, but are free bank bills
used by the Merchants and Planters
bank Ct Savannah, Ga, before the Civil
war, and hence a charge Of passing
counterfeit money could not BE- brought
against the men. but they have been
charged with obtaining money under
false pretenses.
The bills were examined yesterday by
Assistant United States Attorney PEN
mel Cherringt0n and Deputy United
States Marshal l.. b. Smyth. The bills
were soaked In water and were found
10 be composed Of two bills pasted TO-
gethcr. There was printed matter only
on me side Of each BIN. II was the
common custom OF banks % issue such
bills before the Ciyil war, but after the
crisis came they became valueless Cx-
cept as souvenirs. The bills were IS
sued In 1856.

a number Of bogus bills were passed \

that after the men are handled here
