BIC COUNT FEITING
PLANT IS CAPTURED


NEW YORK u. 28.-After eight
months of constant shadowing by
secret service agents under Chief Will
liam J. Flynn, one of the largest
counterfeiting plants ever unearthed
in this city was raided last night at
No. 1896 West Broadway.
Six arrests were made and more
than $4,000 in spurious new ten-dol-
lar notes of the Federal Reserve Bank
issue were seized together with all
plates used in the work.
For week past these men had been
working day and night in the plant,
but when the raid was made only
Gildolauria was on the premises. The
Others were arrested at their different
homes shortly afterward. They had
been seen entering the plant from time
Il time and had been followed con-
stantly. None of the notes turned
out had been put in circulation.
say, a scheme to sell $1,000,000 worth
of the counterfeit notes to Italian
agents in every city and town through
out the United States. They were to
t. be sold at S. each, and others were
to be passed by the counterfeiters
themselves at apparent face value.
Capt John Henry with several of
his men made the roundup. He said
Gildolauria and the others arrested
told him they had agents throughout
the country and expected to make a
big clean-up in very short time 1t
was due to the carful watching of
Capt Henry and his men that none
of the notes had been circulated in
other cities. Some were mailed but
these had been seized about week
ago before they left this city
A printing press weighing 2,40O
pounds was used in turning out the
spurious banknotes. This will be re-
moved today to the Custom House.
D'Allessio was arrested in the base
nent of his home where he conducts
the Commercial Printing Company A
fine grade of paper used for the manu-
facture of the counterfeit notes was
also seized there.
At the West Broadway plant acids
were also seized, which were used to
soak the notes in to give them the
appearance of having been in circula-
ton for sometime. There were over
a dozen plates used in the work, and
the notes were printed in sets Of two
both on the face and back. A half
dozen could be turned out at the same
: time, as the press could hold several
plates.

COAL SHORTAGE TAKES
JOBS FROM THOUSANDS

COLUMBUS, o., Dec 2S.-Thous-
ands of Ohio men were out of en-
ployment temporarily today because
OF the coal shortage in this state
Gov Cox again today pleaded with
federal authorities for priority or
der, which would permit quick coal
shipments.
In spite of the efforts being made
tc alleviate the suffering, demands for
immediate shipments of coal reached
the state and federal authorities here
today fro every section of the state.
In Cleveland 100000 men were re-
ported to be out of work because the
Cleveland Electric Illuminating Com
pany was out of coal and had to close
down, thereby closing many manufac-
turing plants, many of which are
working on war munitions. Schools
hospitals and Their public institutions
are reported about to close
Announcement was made in Gin
cinnati that the street car company
will have to partly suspend tomorrow
noon unless it obtains a supply of
coal in the meantime. Scores of other
businesses were affected and schools
and churches all over the state have
been forced to close their doors be
cause of the lack of heat.
Gov. Cox announced to day that he
has accepted the invitation of Sena-
tor Red of Missouri to appear before
tie Senate Manufacturers Commit
tee to tell of the Ohio coal shortage.
The committee hearing is said to be
the first step in federal investigation
OF the Ohio coal situation.
In Columbus, the Ohio State Uni
versity is still closed down. There
have been no classes this week and
there has been some talk of keeping
the university closed for some time
yet because of the states inability
to obtain coal Even some of the
state Offices have had to suspend
work or move to other quarters be-
cause the employees have been unable
to keep warm.

SHIP CAPTAINS MUST
OBEY CONVOY GUNNERS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28 - Com
plants that American merchant ship
captains have not co-operated with
commanders of conveys and with
naval gun crew commanders caused
the Department of Commerce to is
sue instructions today to merchant
officers to follow the directions of
their naval associates in every in
stance where they are prompted by
military necessity Disobedience OF
the instructions will cause the with
drawal of merchant officers licenses
The instructions made clear, how
ever, that in matters relating solely
to navigation and to the discipline OF
crews, the authority of merchant cap
tains will be upheld
The navy's recent insistence on man
ming all merchant ships with naval
reserves grew out of an alleged lack
or cooperation by merchant captains
Seamen, the navy contended, were per
mitted to come aboard in foreign
ports drunk.
An arrangement now has been
reache between the navy and the ship
ping board providing for manning by
the navy of all transports, all ships
carrying supplies for the army and
the navy and all vessels carrying
whole cargoes of munitions.

HIS FATE MUST BE DETERMINED
BY THE VOTERS OF HIS OWN
STATE SPECIAL ELECTION Is
ADVOCATED.

MILWAUKEE, Dec. 25.-The I'M
preston is general in Wisconsin that
the United States Senate will permit
the citizens If the state to settle the
fate of Senator Robert M. La Toilette
| Advices upon which the belief IS
based are in effect that the Senate
cmmittee which is to test the loyal
ty of the Wisconsin Senator VIII
abandon the inquiry into his st. Paul
speech before the Producers and Con-
sumers' Conference" under the au-
suices of the National Non-Partisan
League. The reason advanced is that
he did not violate any rule of the Sen
ate
Leading citizens of the state who
are determined that their Senator
shall purge himself of the charge OF
disloyalty are reconciled to the I'M
official information that the Senate
itself will not expel Mr.. La Toilette.
They are confident that the citizens
Ci the state are capable of dealing
with the matter if the governor can
b: induced to call special election
The leaders of the Republican and
Democratic state organizations, with
few exceptions, have indicated their
readiness to abandon party lines and
.,,-,c-t o, HAu,or;cono candidate tn
fill the vacancy caused by the death OF
tie patriotic Paul Husting.
The Socialist element, which because
Of local deals has the balance of power
i'll Milwaukee and the larger centres
in the Lake region, is of course OPP
posed to the war programme of the
government. The gage of battle
thrown down by the Socialists has
been taken up by the two regular par
ties and independents and will be
fought to finish. There is no doubt
that the Socialists and the citizens
who's sympathies are with the Teu-
tonic smpires will follow Senator La
toilette if he elects to accept the
challenge of the loyal citizens.
Recent development, notably Mr..
La Toilette failure to vote for the
resolution declaring a state OF war
with Austria, having caused uneasi-
ness among his followers. The Sena-
tor has also ignored the offers of sup
cert made to him by the men who are
trying to influence the governor to
stand against special Senate cleo
ton.

theory that the Senator is going to
"stand pat" They have been in
sidiously active in those counties
