Warned To Look Out For Fax. Money

Warnings have been sent out to bank
ing institutions by the government
officials calling attention to the fact
that the counterfeit artist is at work
in the northwest and that bogus cur
rency of the apparent face value of
81, O00.0 600 or so, has been scattered
broadcast. Strenuous efforts are being
made to run down leaders of the biggest
swindle ut its kind ever launched
against the government. Reports
from the northwest cities are to the
effect that already the fake currency
has turned up and there is every DOS
sibility that it will be passed in Elko
upon the unsuspecting
The information with reference to
the counterfeit bills as received by the
authorities is to the effect that Chief
Flynn, head of the secret service New
York. is responsible for the discovery
OF the gigantic plot. His attention was
called to it two months ago by reports
from his agents that 90 bills of a shady
character were being placed in circula-
ton. The bills failed to appear in
higher denominations and it then be-
came the theory of the police that for
eigners were back of the deal and used
the smaller denominations in order to
circulate the counterfeit money among
the poorer classes. A force of detect
ives was detailed to watch the foreign
settlements and 40 arrests were made
but tho head of the department wished
to locate the plant used to manufacture
the currency.
A dragnet was set for all the we'll
known counterfeiters in this country and
the canvass proved that the plot was
not in the United States, but that the
bad money was shipped to this country
from abroad in wholesale lots. The
operators sold the fake bill to their
agents at the rate of 20 cents on the
dollar and as it was easy to float
currency in the small denominations,
their profits were very large Since
that time the bills have circulated west
and are expected to show up in this part
of Nevada ut any time.
The bad money is said to be very
difficult to detect except by experienced
handlers or by employees in banking
houses who are familiar with the gen.
uine currency and can easily pick out
the bogus paper. .r. ..-

PROTECT CASH REGISTERS

In the Aldrich-Paync bill is a pro
vision placing duty of 30 per cent.
upon cash registers. There is but one
concern in this country that manufact-
nres these machines in any quantity
worth talking about. That is located
in Ohio. 1t has secured a monopoly of
the business by the easy but sometimes
expensive way of buying up all the
patents that are valuable and by forcing
20 the wall, by underselling, all other
competitors who wouldn't sell or were
not worth buying out. The monopoly
character of this company has been
shown conclusively, having once been
sued successfully by Elihu Root, now
senator from New York, for violation
of the antitrust law. A half million
of cash registers have been sold in this
country. for about $75,OOO,OOO. They
nave become business necessity The
prices asked are very high. There is
another reason for this other than the
fact that il has only few small
competitors.
IL
enjoyed tariff of 40 per cent. which is
high enough to keep out of the Ameri-
en- market all foreign makes. While
tho government is guaranteeing to this
Company full control of the home
market it is also enabling it to make
such III cxtortionatc profit upon its

RAILROAD OFFICIAL TALKS OF MIAMI
 EXTENSION
CONSTRUCTION WORK PROGRESS ING RAPIDLY AND TRACK LAY
 ING SOON TO BEGIN.

J. NJ. Mcclure, engineer of mainten- ance of way of the Randolph system, inspected the construction work on the Miami extension of the Gila Valley rail road yesterday and is highly pleased with the progress that is being made.
 The construction work has extended almost as far north as the mouth of Bloody Tanks wash. Not, all of the roadbed is complete, as there is some rock work to be done just beyond the old line to the Buffalo shelter, but aside from this, the dirt work is prac- tically complete as far as the work has progressed.
 No track has been laid as yet, but it is expected that the gang to take up this work will be here in a short time.
 The rock work has progressed rather slowly, as the task is a heavy one and only small gang of men is at work. Mir. Mcclure stated yesterday that a larger gang would probably arrive here from Courtland within a short time to facilitate the construction of the road bed through the rocky wall along the creek just below town.

Peabody Fund Will
 Be Wound Up Today

provided the capital for. the venture. The next year the business was re. moved to Baltimore, and branch houses were established in Philadelphia and New York.
 Endowed with habits of thrift, George Peabody prospered. A modest fortune was amassed in few years. In 1887 he went to London, and there estab. lished himself as merchant and money broker. The last half of his life was spent in England, with occasional per iods of residence in his native land.
 His first benefaction of note was to his native town, in 1852, when Danvers celebrated its bi.centennial. He then gave it funds with which to establish library, lyceum and Peabody insti. ute.
 In 1862 Mir. Peabody entered on the plan for his first great benefaction, the establishment of fund for housing the poor of London. By 1866 this fund reached $2,500,O00, entirely from his gifts. The fund now amounts to about $6, 100000, and many thousand families have benefited from the wisdom of the great founder. For these benefac- tions Queen Victoria wished to make Mir. Peabody baronet, but he declined the honor. He died in London Novem. ber 4, 1869, and his remains were brought to this country for burial.

CANANEA, Mexico, May 14.-Ac- cording to assayers and others of a mathematical turn of mind, the atmos. phere in the building used here Mon day night as theater, was worth near ly ten thousand dollars. A travelling Italian Opera, company was billed for performance, and an old ore house, the largest building in town, was fitted up for the show. Before the perform ance was over the stamping of feet by the people in the audience had set the gold dust flying from the cracks and creviees of the old ore house. Tho gold-laden dust was so thick that it made people sneeze. Assayers esti- mate that people attending the perform ance could have washed enough gold from their clothes after the dust had settled to pay the cost of their tickets.

CLOSE SHAVE FROM KNIFE IN HANDS

wENDENDALE MAN RECEIVES IN JURIEs OF SERIOUS NATURE
 IN DRUNKEN BRAWL

wENDENDALE, May l4.--Last Saturday morning Jesus Pindo, Mexi. can, stabbed Frank Langer, an Ameri- can, one gash across the ribs on the right side and the other across the throat. The former cut is apparently superficial though pr. Cartmell was out of town when the stabbing occurred, and by the time he reached the patient clot had farmed in the rib wound, which is also superficial except where the knife was plunged into the tisues. Luckily none of the principal arteries or veins were severed or the traehea cut. No motive is known for the crime, but the perpetrator, Pindo, had been drinking heavily and was heard to remark during the evening that he "would get man before morning.. Langer attempted to take the Mexican
 home but Pindo heard the musicians who had returned from playing at & dance, and were out serenading Mir. and Mrs. George Klotzbaeh, and was deter mined to go and join them, when Lan- ger tried to dissuade Pindo, he drew
 his knife and stabbed him. A warrant was at once issued for the Mexican s arrest but he was spirited away by his friends and was not located until Sun day morning.

PATENT CASE TRIED
OF TUNGSTEN FILA MENTs MUST EXPLAIN DEs-
 TRUCTIoN OF RECORD

WASHINGTON, D. C., May l4.-- What promises to become celebrated case in patent law was aired in the District supreme court today, when Commissioner of Patents Moore was cit. ed to appear and show cause why he should not be enjoined from striking from the patent office files Tungsten filiaments for use in incandescent light ing.
 The complainant in the case is John c. Heany, an inventor of York, Pa, who was acquitted here last fall on a charge of conspiracy to defraud the government by alterations and destruc. ton of patent office records.
 Heany claims to have invented the Tungsten filiaments and says invalida- tion of his patents by Commissioner Moore would cost him large amount of money. The commissioner had direct ed Heany, the Heany company and the Heany Lamp company to show cause why their application should not be stricken from the files. Heany claims that his acquittal in the criminal court showed that he had no connection with the alterations or Notifications in volved. He contends that the commis- sioner of patents is without authority to entertain the charges, as some of them form the basis of indictments under which he was tried and acquitted.
