RECEIVER HAS TO
FIGHT FOR STORE
Attorney Lowry Meets opposi,
ton of Representatives of
Local Wholesale House.

After a stormy session yesterday
Mortimer Lowry finally succeeded IN
taking possession of Morris Weiss
bord's grocery store at s16 New Jer-
sey Railroad avenue.
A petition in bankruptcy was filed
against Weissbord, and Attorney
Judge Rellstab, of the United States
District Court. William Greenfield
filed the petition.
When the receiver attempted to
take possession of the store he found
two men there attempting to fore
close on the place. They were from
Wilkinson, Gaddis & Co. wholesalers.
The men refused to get out when
Lowy ordered them TO do 30. They
insisted on taking an inventory.
Finally Lowry learned that the VIII,
l1inson- Gaddis Company held chat
tel mortgage for 81, 465 against Weiss
bord The mortgage was secured only
on Monday.
Attorney Lowry became Impatient
and turned the lights off. leaving the
men in the darkness. They turned
them on again. After numerous
threats the attorney finally closed up
the store, with the men on the out,
side, but it was not until he had gone
out in search of q policeman.
Weissbord, 1t is claimed, owes
about $4,000 His only assets are the
stock and fixtures in his store. They
are valued at $1,000. The six-story
frame building in which the store is
located is in his name, but 1t is de-
clared the property is encountered
for more than it is worth. There are
three mortgages on It, besides the
chattel mortgage held by the local
wholesale company.
The petitioning creditors, represent
ed by Attorney Greenfield, are Henry
Koch, as H. Koch & Co.; Donaer,
Denholtz Company, Inc, and George
E. Bremen. holding an assigned claim
from the Seller Brothers. Selick j.
Mindes represents the bankrupt.

COUNTERFEIT S.
BILLS ON MARKET
Banks Detect Almost Perfect
limitations and Issue
Warning.

Local merchants are closely scru-
tinizing all five-dollar bills that are
received by their cashiers. watching
for counterfeits. For the past week
a very accurate counterfeit So bill has
been In circulation throughout North
ern New Jersey and is gradually
spreading in Newark. Several bills
have been brought to the attention OF
the off1cils of the Federal Trust Com
pany. Some of them were counter
feits.
TWO of the bad bills were also dis
covered by the National Newark
Banking Company clerks. The other
banks also report having detected
and refused numerous flve-dollar bills
of a questionable nature. These are
thought to be of the same issue.
The counterfeit bill is an unusually
good one and can seldom be detected
by even the experienced bank tellers.
They were first discovered by John
c. Taylor, of Philadelphia. He sent
out circulars giving their description.
The bills are made by a very clever
process. One dollars are bleached IN
some manner, it is claimed, until they
have become practically colorless. An
accurate photo-engraVing of the nVe
Dill IS lllcI SidlAipGN va Viz
bieached one-dollar bill paper in cor
rect color. When finished the bill is
almost perfect. 1t can be detected
better by the sense of touch than by
any other means, it is declared. 1t
is difficult, however, to distinguish
between the feel of the washed bills
and the counterfeit issue. The bad
bills have the same appearance as
the washed ones.
The bad bills have the Indian
head and are marked with &C" for
check letter" They are of the
series of 1899 on plate No. 1,5O9. They
bear the signatures of J. c. Napier,
register of the treasury, and Lee Nc
Chung, treasurer of the United States.
1t is only by closely scrutinizing the
five-dollar bills and examining all
paper of the above issue that the spu-
rious bills have been detected.
