Biographical Calendar.

Thomas Collier Platt. who had the
unenyiablc reputation of being the
most popular man in the Unted
States senate until his retirement on
March last. is today celebrating
his seventy.siXth birthday. Separated
from his WIFE shorn of all polit-
cal power and facing suits which
question his conduct of the United
States express company, of which he
is president, the aged eX.senator's
anniversary will hardly be II very
happy one
Plat is native of Owcgo y Y.
where he was born July 10. 1898. lie
entered Yale in 1888, but was com
PEELED to abandon his college course,
on account OF IN health. Later. when
at the height of his fame, Yale con
ferTcd upon him the degree of VI. \.
Entering mercantile life soon after
leaving school Plat acquired the
business training which served him
in good stead as the head of a great
express company. He was elected to
his first political office, that of coun.
~ clerk of Tioga county. IN 1859. He
occupied seat in the house during
the Forty.third and Forty-fourth
congresses, and attained his greatest
ambition in 1881, when he was elect
ed TO the United States senate from
New York Angry at rebuffs from
President Garfield, Platt and his New
York senatorial colleague. Roscoe
lConklng. resigned from office.
Platt's connection with the United
States express company dates from
1879 when he was chosen secretary
and director In the following year
he was elected president of the com
pany, position which he has since
held. Under his direction and careful
fostering, the express company wax
ed prosperous, and is now among
the world. Charges have often been
made that of late years Platt's man
agement has been inefficient. and the
matter VIII probably be threshed out
in the courts.
His first wife having died in 1903
Platt married Mrs. Lillian T. Jane
way, of Washington, in the autumn
of 1903. Charges that Mrs. Plat was
too friendly with one Hedges, a
coaChman. and the Mae Wood sean
dal in which Plat was involved, led
to separation and the couple are
now living apart.

MILLION IN BAD COIN
SECRET SERVICE MEN NIP 4
PLOT OF FOREIGN CROOKS
POORER CLASSES VICTIMS.

New York, July 1I.-Counterfeit
money of the apparent face value
OF one million dollars or so has
been scattered broadcast over the
country The government is trying
10 run down the leaders in the big
gest swindle OF its kind ever launch
ed.
Chief Flynn, head of the secret
service in New York, is known as
the counterfeiters greatest foe, and
discovery OF the present plot is
credited TO him. His attention was
first attracted two months ago by
reports from his agents that spu.
rious s. bills were being circulat-
ed on the East Side. The number
of bills of larger denominations were
comparatively small, and, because
of this, Chief Flynn deduced that
the counterfeitcrs were foreigners
who planned TO circulate their
goods" among the poorer classes
which seldom use big bills.
Secret service agents were put
on watch on the East Side, in Har-
lens Little Italy, in tne rrowns-
vile section OF Brooklyn and in
near by New Jersey towns.
Although the facts hitherto have
been kept secret, forty arrests have
been made in less than two months.
This successful and wholesale raid
ing drove the more active of the
cOunterfcitcrs out OF New York and
vicinity but It was Chief Flynn s
ambition TO discover the plant
whore the money was manufactured
Il am satisfied now that the gang
has It's factory in Italy" Chef Flynn
said today Perhaps never before
has a counterfeitlng scheme on such
a big scale been directed against
the United States"
The showers" as the crooks who
place countcrfeits in circulation are
/ known, purchased the currency from
dealers at the rate of thirty-five
/ cents ON the face value OF a dollar
