CERTIFICATES COUNTERFEITED
How It Was Planned to Use En-
craving Establishments.

An interesting case is reported to the
secret service from st. Paul by Agent
Thomas r. McManus. Earnest r. Work
man of Winnipeg, Canada. recently ar
rived in ST Paul and distributed among
the engraving establishments of that city
small and apparently uninportant orders
for work. The line United States Treas
ury'' was given to one establishment and
a portrait of President Garfield to an
other. AS the etyle Of type and the por-
trait were identical with parts of the face
of a $50 gold certificate. the matter was
brought to the attention OF Agent Nc
Manus, and Workman, who was known
to the engraving esta bl!shments as ]. K.
Matthews, was placed under surveillance
Some days ago all of the engravings that
had been executed for him were returned
to him. and last night Agent McManus
paid him an official call. as a result Of
which he captured $50, 900 in $50 gold GER
tifcates, the plates from which they were
printed and the usual supply Of mate
rails.
The counterfeit, which was not very
good one, would have been sufficiently
deceptive to pass in the Canadian prov
inCes, and it is believed that Workman in
tended to make that disposition OF his
notes.

FELICITOUs SPEECHES.
Those Made by the Turkish Minister
and the President

When the Turkish minister was pre-
sented to the President yesterday he spoke
as follows:
"Mr. President: I have the honor to
place in your excellency's hands the letter
which accredts me to the government OF
the United States of America as envoy
extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary
of his imperial majesty the sultan. my
august master. who has deigned to charge
me with the duty of exercising particular
care toward maintaining and developing
the relations of friendship and harmony
which so happily exist between the i'm
perial government and the government Of
the American republic.
For my part. Mr. President, l consider
1t my good fortune to represent a SIN
cerely friendly nation in the midst Of this
great American people, whose marvellous
progress accomplished within a period
comparatively SO short, 1t has been given
me to admire, even though from afer.
This suffices to assure your eXcellency
that IN the discharge Of my duties / will
scrupuldusly and faithfully voice the SEN
timents and intentions of my august
sovereign and of his imperial government.
Il only cherish the hope that on your
part, your excellency and the American
government will kindly extend to me their
benevolent assistance in the efforts l shall
increasingly exert to promote the good
understanding and enhance the friendly
relations existing between the imperial
government and the government Of the
United States"
The President replied in the following
words:
Mr. Minister: l have received with
graut cation the letter by which his i'm
perial majesty, the sultan. has been
pleased to accredit you as his envoy ex-
to the government of the United States OF
America, and / shall always be glad to
extend to you by every means at my COM
mand my active assistance in maintain
ing and perfecting the friendly relations
which SO happily exist between the gov
ernment OF the United States and that OF
your august sovereign
Il have observed with pleasure the in
creasingly benevolent DISPOSITION toward
American citizens and institutions which
the enlightened and wise policy OF his
imperial majesty has made manifest and
cherish the conviction that In charging
you WIN hlsh functions with which he
has been pleased to honor won hin I'm,
periai majesty has taken a step well de-
signed TO render stronger and closer the
bonds of sincere friendship which en,st
between the United States and his own
government. 1t is with the most eRre.-
able impressions that receive Won ms TIM
worthy representative OF your aurust
sovereign, and express my earnest wishes
Ior the happiness and prosperity OF his
majesty and his people
For yourself, it is my hope that Won

AMERICANS IN GERMANY.
Protest in Berlin Over Recent
Registration Regulations.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
BERLIN November "a committee is
being formed in Berlin to protest against
the recent registration regulations r.
garding naturalized Americans living
abroad Naturalzed Americans in Ger
many are mostly, OF course, Of German
origin. They complain that the consular
authorities refuse to register them uni SIS
they can bring convincing evidence that
it is their intention to return permanently
to America.
This evidence, 1t is objected, Is i'm
possible to produce in cases where those
most affected are not in trade represent
ing American houses or attending college
or In any of the ways accepted in tn
regulations. The position of such people
is clearly anomalous. for they lose their
American citizenship through non-regis-
tration and are not regarded by the Ger
man authorities as German subjects
they have practically no nationality at
all.
Their situation, espe cially where there
Is a family, can thus easily become en-
barrassng. Suppose, for example, man
had a son of seventeen. at which age
liability for military service in Ger
many begins. The question arises, is he
liable to military service in Germany
when his father has ceased to b. an
American citizen? There are other hard
propositions of a similar nature possible
which the committee desires to have
solved.

DOWNPOUR IN SPAIN.
Forty-Three Days of Rain Ruins
the Crops.
peclal Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
MADRID, November 9.-Advlces from
Villagarcia on the Galician coast say 1t
has been raining there for forty three
days without intermission. The vintage
has been ruined and the maize crop is
hardly worth harvesting. Moreover. thou
sands of fishermen, who compose the bluk
of the population, are reduced to beggary,
owing to the scarcity Of fish, and are in
vading the towns and imploring public
charity.
Emigration to America Is assuming
alarming proportions. The rate war be-
tween the rival steamship companies and
the momentary cheapness of transatlantic
passage are inducing the poor to try their
luck over the sea.
The authorities are much concerned over
the wholesale depopulation of the prov
ince, the Galician fishermen being the
most sober and ns1st hard working of
their class.
