er, Claims He First Made Bad
Coins AS Pastime.

San Francisco-George Wilson, the
most skillful counterfeiter of gold
coins ever captured in San Francisco,
was arrested by secret service opera
tives and has made a complete con-
fession. At his home. a $4,000
house in a fashionable street of the
Richmond district, the secret service
men found complete outfit for max
ing counterfeit IS coins. When Will
son was searched Is coins of his own
make were in his possession. He is
reputed to be moderately wealthy.
The perfection of the molds and the
startlingly fine workmanship of the
counterfeits drew from the officers
the statement that the coins are the
most nearly perfect ever seen. Will
son formerly was an expert metal
worker.
For some time the secret service
men worked quietly in tracing the
authorship of the almost perfect 81
counterfeit coins. When arrested Will
son at once confessed and led the
secret service men to the hiding plac'
of his molds and counterfeiting tools
These were kept in desk drawer il
the living room of the Wilson home.
Mrs. Wilson, a nervous woman, whC

not been content with the plaster Of
paris molds used by the unskilled coun
terfeiter, but constructed his of cop
per, cast with wonderful skill, and il
both the old and new designs of the
five-dollar coins.
In his confession Wilson implicated
his wife, but said that she did no
pass any of the illegal coins and haC
no part in their production. She wa:
not arrested.
Wilson bore good reputation. He
was well-known in the Richmond dis
trict, where he had lived for som'
time. His handsome home is sur
rounded by residences of many of Sar

WRECK GIVES UP BONES,
Engineers Find Relics of Maine Vic
Tins on Every Hand.

Havana-With the gas-blast appar-
atus installed by the engineers, the
tangled barnacled mass that was once
the United States battleship Maine is
being dislodged from the muck of the
harbor, where it was sunk by a mys-
FERROUS explosion in 1898.
Within the past week almost every
step taken by the engineers in the ex-
ploration of the wreck has revealed
the bones of Inflated memo -warsmen
who went down with her.
Of the remains found this week,
only one set of bones has been identi-
fed, and in this instance it is possible
that the engineers are mistaken. The
Identification was that of the bones
of Assistant Engineer Merritt, pos
sible from the fact that the upper
jaw contains two gold teeth, and from
a peculiar mark on the skull.
The bones supposed to Lbe those OF
Merritt were discovered at the precise
spot where Midshipman Boyd testified
that he and Merritt had been separ-
ated by the thrush of water while
struggling to make their way from
the junior officers wardroom to the
main deck.
Bones of two other men were found
near the warrant officers quarters on
the port side of the berth deck, but
Identification is impossible. The total
number of bodies recovered is FL.
