Government Unable to Find Man
Who Caused Downfall of Six.
The coming trial in Milwaukee of
George Howard, alias Coyne, on the
charge of passing counterfeit silver, has
brought to light the story of the long
search that the secret service officials
have been making for the king of the
cOunterfeiterS," I. G.. Williams, alias the
Gypsy" Howard is the sixth man
whose downfall may be traced to 'Gyp-
sy,' said Captain A. II. Gallagher Of
the secret service, ''yet the government has
never been able to locate Williams. Will
liams has given the government more
trouble than any other man and his work
is so perfect and his trail covered SO well
that he has never been apprehended The
department has not a single photograph
of him." Williams is said to have sew
eral plants in Wisconsin, Michigan and
Indiana, where he regularly disposes of
money to those who desire his goods and
where he teaches the art of making the
counterfeits.
