Required to Defeat 1t
By EDWARD c. LONG

There are number of problems be-
fore the counterfeiter." said my friend
Roberts, the detective, but the most
important Of all is distributing the bills
after they are made. There's more
room for ingenuity in this part of the
work than any other. and more coun-
terfeiters are tracked from this clew
than any other. All sorts of devices
are resorted to to get the stuff in cir
eulation. Persons are roped in by be-
ing offered an enormous price for some
thing they own. and when they get
their pay find that the money they
have received is counterfeit. In such
cases the transaction is usually large,
and when it is completed the rascals
disappear without leaving any trace.

into circulation in small way and con-

best example 1 ever met with.

reported some five dollar bill counter
feits on his banks circulation. Every
now and again a lot of these bills
would appear. be absorbed and after
awhile another lot would find their
way into the hands principally of
shopkeepers. The only clew that any

day went into drug store and. after
