Washington, January S. I The alarm of trea'sory officials over the discovery of 100 counterfeit silver certificates has been increased by later developments. One of these counterfeits ap peared in a package of bills re-1 ceived from the Chicago sub treasury, another was found in the St. Louis branch and a third in the Philadelphia xe- mittauce. Another was brought to light io the cash of the Na tional Bank of Washington, one of the oldest institutions here. Department officials believe that a gang went to worlf sim lultaneonsly to distribute 1 these bills in all of the big CltlSS. and that tU8 COUnterJeltS uaVQ bee0 jR circulation for sev- :' eral weeks. Mr. Cramer, assorting cleric of the Philadelphia sublreas ury, who first brought the coun terfeits to the attention of the department, said that he saw a note sis w?k3 ago which be believed was one of the spuri ous issue Of the 18,000,000 in the Chicago subtreasury $1, 1 500,000 is in $100 silver certifi cates. The eubtreaeury at St. Louis has 1,750,000. The officials here are await ing anxiously the shipments from St. Louis and Chicago, believing that an examination nf fhpsrt nankap-ps will lnrlinsift , e . tion. It is expected that the Chicago and St. Louis ship ments will be received on Thursday. Comparatively small amounts of the silver certificates are held in Washington, and those at the snbtreasuries of Boston, Cincinnati and Philadelphia range from $100,000 to $200,- 000. Nw Orleans and San Francisco have a limitbd num ber, and it is estimated that $ev York holds only about .. nnn No trace of the counterfsit ers has been discovered. Chief Ilazen of the secret service bureau is in Philadelphia, and . 4 been assigned to the case. The ! unpleasant discovery was made !at the department today that the counterfeits were printed from engraved plates, and not ! from PlateS raade bv a Photo mechanical process. - Alters are few persons known to the department SGUiCieiltij' 2Dert tO have engraved SUOb ,,lates.

Tampa, Fla., Jan. 9. After spending several weeks mak ing a personal investigation of "1C "" -u " L": nu :.. 4- T-i rifiihn - l 11U0 I rn ig'u xvi.ig ui uwu aiiiv- ed here this week. His tour covered four provinces and was thorough. Speaking of his trip he said: "I made it to learn just what the conditions were, and I found that no one has half depicted the horrors of the re concentrados. Those people, naked and emaciated, are still dying like sheep in the streets of the 'towns where they are still huddled. T6 realize just what this means one must see for himself. I found that the Spanish people have evidently very little faith in the new au tonornical government, for they are strongly in favor of annexation and want it at once. General Bianco has succeeded in his efforts to al- tleviate the sufferinofs, for he has not had financial means to carry it out. I have interview ed insurgent leaders, Spanish officers and Americans, and have some definite idea of what is going on in that terri bly devastated island. I know positively that General Lee is not Sfoincr out with General Blanco to see Gereral Go mez. As Mr. King saw General Lee yesterday, he evidently speaks with authority. Prof. Herman Shoenfeid of Colutnbian university came on the same boat. He has been making investigations for the purpose of writing magazine articles for Germany and Aus tria. . He corroborated in the main Mr. King's views, but thinks the war will continue a long time. v DURRANT'S BODY. Neither Crematories Nor Cemeteries Will Receive It for Interment. Chicago. January 9. There seems to be no place for the body of Theodore Durrant. Both crematories here have absolutely refused to handle I the remains and no cemeter lias vet consented to receive I them. They are still at the Durrant house, and it looks as though they would stay there for some time. The elder Dur rant said today "my efforts to carry out tne last wishes of the dead; boy have been unavailing. The i crematories ref use to take the and the cemeteries are vise reluctant. .

St. Louis, Jan 9. A special to the Republic from Musko gee, I. T., says: An alarming state of roit prevails in the Seminole Nation and unless immediate steps are taken by the United States authorities a bloody Indian uprising may re suit. This is on account of the burning of two Indians by whites tor the murder and out rage of Mrs. Laird last Thurs day night. Agent Wisdom received a J telegram tonight for assistance toquelfthe riot that prevails j in the Nation. He confirmed the news of the stake burnings and gave the names of the sufferers, Lincoln McGeisey and Balmer Sampson, two young Seminoles. Both the Indians came from respectable Seminole tamilies and their fear full death has aroused their friends and re latives to frenzy. Dr. Linn has just arrived from the scene of the burning and states that both bodies were burned and mutilated in a most horrible manner and are unrecognizable. All the authorities here re cognize that the situation is I nearer bordering upon a dan gerous Indian uprising than in recent years and are taking prominent measures to quell it. TO WALK ACROSS THE ATLANTIC. Captain William C. Oldrieve of Boston has planned to walk across the Atlantic ocean next July. He will begin his jour ney July 4, and will be accom panied by Captain William A. Andrews, famous by reason of his voyages across the Atlan tic in a small boat. The seagoing shoes of Mr. Oldrieve are the most wonder ful part pf the whole affair. They are really a pair of cedar L boxes five feet Ions with fins on the bottom and sides. "I hey are very light and capable of sustaining 140 pounds, but as Oldrieve v. eijhs only 1 30 they are as trood to him as a steam er's deck. Into each of these r wooden shoes the water alk er s feet are thrust down and a rubber garterlike affair is fastened to his leg, thus effect ually keepmg out the water. Rubber boots reaching to the thigh are also worn. When thus equipped Oldrieve is able to walk many miles and to travel over chappy seas, and even tha heavy s ell of the Irocean.

In this way she says ft really requires less exertion to walk on water f)ir out at sea than it does in a sheltered bay. The hardest work of all, hesays, is to go in chappy water as he did in the East river: He thinks he will be able to walk from 500 to 1000 miles" of tbe way across the Atlan tic in a period of forty to ninety days. As the course taken will be in- path of steam ships, he ,expects to speak many passing vessels and send back letters written while walk ing in midocean to his iriends in Boston. HOW EDISON PROPOSED! The idea oi the great elec trician Edison marryng was first suesrested bv an intimate friend, of whom Edison timidly inquired whom he shoufd marry. The friend somewhat testily replied "anyone." But Edison was not without sentimentf when the time came. One day as he stood behind the chair of a ?liss Still well, a telegraph operator in his em ploy, he was not a little sur prised when she suddenly turned round and said: "Mr. Edison, I can always tell when you are behind me or near me." Edison fronted the young lady; and, looking at her fixedly, said. 'Tve been thinking consider, rably about you of late, and if you are willing te marry me I would like to mafcry yon' The young lady said she would talk the matter over with her mother. The result was their marriage, and a very happy one it proved to be.
