Superintendent United State Secret

Established at a time when the country
was'overrun with spurious coins and coun
terfeits of all kinds of Government obliga

Impossible for a. crime to be lqnr -without
detection; - -
' Representatives of this department, all
working under John E. tVllkle at TVaab
Ingtony D. C the chief of the service, are
located In every city -where there, is a Sub
treasury and In many other large towns.
They-'oonsUtue the bureaus of the depart
ment ond tinder them are numberless spe
cial officer who are assigned to reguiar
In romn'lalnts nra thoroughly investigated
and If the evidence "warrants, arrests are.
made ond the accused vigorously prosecuted
In tho United States District Court. As
suming? the role of detectives we shadow
the supposed counterfeiters until conditions
are such that we feel conviction sure, then
arrest and prosecution follows. ,
Since 0293 I have been chief of the. local
bureau and during that time Missouri has
ranked among the States having the high
est number of convictions each year of
counterfeiters. The average number con
victed a year is about sixty and the number
who are acqltted Is hardly worth mention
ing. Motto of the Department.
The motto of tho department la: "Be
pure Sod then go ahead." It Is considered
cf much more Importance to arrest an en
tire gang at once, even taking the chance
of one or more of them escaping, than to
arrest them singly on different days, and
meantime permit the other members of the
sang' to escure and destroy -all evidence of
their' orifne. for this reason the officers of
the department, with tireless energy, may
watch suspects for months at a time, and
then suddenly swoop down upon the ren
desvduz and, surprising the inmates, ar-
(reet them In the "very act of breaking the
, 2aw. Under those conditions conviction Is
absolutely sure.
In the time that I have been connected
-with the service It has been my fortune to
be connected with some of the most Im
portant cases that have come before the
attention of tho department. Dally accus
tomed to hearing reports of counterfeiting
and called upon to examine spurious coins
and fraudulent representations of Govern
ment paper of all kinds, we soon become
experts In this line of investigation, and
can teU at a glance almost good from bad
moneys
There are many ways of detecting coun
terfeit money, and In the history of the
department there has not been a counterfeit
In circulation for a considerable length of
tiraeTefore It was detected by the officers
of the Government. It may bo that the of
fenders were not arrested until some time
later, but that Was due to caution on our
part, for it was desired to arrest the en
tire gang and not a few members uf it.
To stamp It out entirely and not merely
cneck operations lor tne urae Deing.
Never, yet has a perfect counterfeit coin
l'been made, some aa.tr tnat Drougnt
about detection always has been found.
This is because the majority of coins are
molded, and cot stamped, and in doing this
the counterfeiters leave some trace of tho
melding. For Instance, when a coin is mold
ed there is a small portion of edge that
remains smooth after what Is' called the
tall ls'fllcd off. The tail Is caused by the

arrested, while, on the othsr hand, if we
had been informed in regard to tho matter
we would not rest till the entire company

In many cases the police notify us when
counterfeit coins have been found in cir
culation In some particular section of the
city, and those who know of the bureau
bring us Information. If many counterfeit
coins have been papyed In one section of the

Th Adam Hafley Case.

commonly known as the Manning clad
Associated with him in this eountertllt
ing were two brothers named Wilson, living
at Plggott, Ark. They were wealthy lum
bermen, and what Induced them to enter
this business I can't see. Another mun
was F. D. Hubbard, a druggist near Ash

manufactured them and circulated theui.
They appeared often at his ahed, but mem
bers of his family, the only persons tBat
saw the visitors, thought he was -howjng
them his patents, and when the entire gang
was arrested they were greatly surprised.
As they did not work together it was im
possible to catch tbem all together, and
the first arrests were made at Jonesboro,

Before entering the Secret Service De

was raid to be one of the best posted men In
that lino of business In the country. Hs
hod a wide knowledge of police characters
nnd could remember faces that he had not

no was tne Hrst police officer to introduce
the scheme which has since grown com

For Instance In IMS, when the G. A. R, En

sion at Columbus, he brought detectivej
from nearly all largo cities there. Among
others Tom McOrutn. now a member of
Chief of Detectives Desmond's staff went
from St. Louis to assist in watching for
pickpockets and confidence men.
With the aid of these outsldo detectives
Mr. Murphy was able to arrost three hun

seventy-live of these photographed nnd
their pictures sent throughout the country.
His Idea was that every large city had its
police characters which form a moving pop

n. chance to plrk up a few dollirs without
danger of arrest.
inese men are known to the police of
their respective cities, but not to the police

RETUBLJC SrECIAL.
Bluefleld. W. Va,. May 3L A huge black
bear was brought to this city and sold to
local butchers. Its weight was 13i pounds
and In capturing it a young man sustained
possibly fatal injuries.
For some time past the farmers living in
the "Wilderness" In Bland County, Vir
ginia, have missed their sheep. RccenUy
the partly devoured carcass of a fine ewe
was found. A party was organized to hunt
down tho carnivorous animal. The country
was scoured for hounds, ana a nne pac&
was gotten together. .... ., ...
The hounds soon struck the beast's trail,
ond in a short while one of the hunters,
Charles Burton, got a shot at the animal.
The bullet took effect, but did not check
the bear's flight.
However, others of the party fired with
equally effective aim. and the bear, after
carrying ten rifle balls around with hlra
for over an hour, was finally brought to
bay by the hounds.
In his eagnerness to be one of the Dis
patchers of the brute. John (Burton, aged
22 years, got too close to the bear, and be
fore he could get a shot, was bowled over
by the bear's heavy paws. His face was
badly lacerated by the blow, and after he
had fallen to the ground he received an
other blow which broke bis left arm.
The bear then bit nearly through Burtons
left leg and was gnawing at his stomach
when tho party came up. A shot, fired by
a man named Ramsey, ended Bruin's earth
ly career. .
The young man was removed to the noma
of his father on Klroberland Creek, where
he lies In a critical condition.
