ALIEN ARRESTED
ALLEGED TO BE
COUNTERFEITER
RUSSIAN LAVISHLY SPENDS
BOGUS COINS
SUSPICIOUS MATERIAL FOUND IN
MECHANIC'S ROOM
Man Pays for Many Rounds of Food
and Drinks with Poorly
Made Half-Dollar
Pieces
PATROLMEN WALLS and Glenn
made last night what is believed
to be an important capture in the
arrest of R Russian mechanic on the
charge of having counterfeit money in
his possession and the using of the
Mine.
The prisoner gave his name as .1.
Noyokoff and stated that he was a
niolder and employed in a foundry at
Twenty-first and Alaineda streets. The
officers are of the opinion that his
molding is confined to patterns of
United States coins, and the foundry
which commands his services is the
one where the counterfeits are made.
Noyokoff, who lives at 600 Turner
street, last night visited a Russian re
sort run by Nodo, Kokenoff & Bril
abon at 226 Hewitt street, where on
Sunday nights tea and sweet cakes and
a kind of Russian wine are sold to all
who come. He knew by sight or name
all of those present, and he proceeded
to make himself agreeable by buying
refreshments for all. This alone at
tracted considerable attention to him,
for Noyokoff was not known as a man
of means, and only one of independent
income could afford to squander silver
and gold the way he threw it around.
Pays in Half Dollars
Order after order of sweet cakes, tea,
wine, and fruit were brought at his
command, and when settling time came
he paid his score In nice new half
dollars and a $S gold piece, which in
the dim light of the room looked all
right to the little Russian maid who
took them. Bui when she turned the
money over to the head of the house
it was noticed that the half-dollars did
not look just like other half-dollars
and the $5 gold piece was considerably
off color.
By this time Noyokoff had left the
place, taking with him a considerable
amount of change in real money. The
Russians run out after him. He was
caught a block away and held while
the policeman on the beat, Officer
Walls, was called. Walls held the man
until a telephone call could be sent to
the station for Patrolman Glenn, who
was investigating a number of com
plaints of bogus money passed in that
section of the elty.
The officers searched the prisoner's
room on Turner street and there found
a quantity of lead and white Babbitt
metals, from which it Is believed the
counterfeit coin's were made, but -with
in the limited time had last night the
search failed to reveal the molds from
which the Impressions were taken.
Half Eagle Plated
The coins captured on the fellow and
passed by him were of the date 1908,
and were made from a half-dollar
minted at the San Francisco mint.
The impression of the obverse and re
verse of the coins is very good, but
the milling is poor and the coins are
under weight and of a dull grayish
appearance. The one counterfeit $5
piece passed by Noyokoff was made
of the same material and had evident
ly been plated, but the plating had
worn off until it resembled a boguct
5-cent piece.
Noyokoff was booked at central sta
tion on suspicion and will be turned
over to the United States authorities
today. Asked about liis possession of
the money, he stated that it had been
given him by a friend, but who the
friend was he refused to Bay. He added,
however, that as soon as he saw this
friend again there would be a fight,
and probably ho would kill him for
getting him into such a scrape.
