, THE COUNTERFEITER.
TALK WITH BROCKWAY, THE FA-
MOUS MAKER OF “QUEER.”
Successful Imitation of the Famous ’Bl~
Bonds—Copying the Elaborate Lathe
Work on the Greenback—Counterfeiting
Foreign Moneys—Bank Notes.
Among the men who have been classed as
great criminals no one has had wider fame
than William E. Brockway. He has been a
very rich man, he is a very clever one, his
years approach 70, he is just ending a short
sentence in Sing Sing. Is he a great crook?
I do not know. I have been accustomed to
meet him in a journalistic way at intervals
reaching over ten years, and once I asked
him if he was a great rascal. He said no.
I am not bound to believe him, nor are you;
' but I never knew’ him to lie in anything, and
I am bound to believe that he does not re-
gard himself as a bad man.
Brockway is credited with the counterfeit-
ing of the famous ’81 bonds. It was not his
biggest job by any means, but it was success-
ful. They were bonds issued by the govern-
ment early in 1861, and the treasury depart~
meat redeemed no end of the bogus ones be-
fore accident betrayed them. These bonds
were not registered, and the plates from
which they were taken were never found.
Indeed, the supposition almost takes the
power of positive statement that the original
plates were used with the guilty knowledge of
a then official who lives now ill great splendor
in London and is a frequent guest in Marlboro
house and at Sandringham. HoWever that
may be, the fact remains that the United
States treasury did buy bogus bonds under
the administration of Salmon P. Chase, and
these bonds, if not counterfeit, were illegal.
won’r ram. rr ALL.
It is something more than can reasonably
be expected that Brockway will tell all he
knows, and even if he did he would, as is
customary with his guild, hint at so much un-
rovealed that 'his interviewer could never
.know when he had pumped him dry. For
example, he says that the white line which
encircles the seal of scroll work. called the
counter, on the national currency is named as
one of the actual protections against counter-
feiting—as a matter of fact the skillful coun-
terfeiter has nofiiliiculty in printing that line
white. I asked him how they did it, but he
said there were enough who didn’t know how
to make the knowledge too valuable for news-
paper columns. I asked him for his opinion
as an expert of the security of the paper our-
rency. ‘ ‘
“There are no experts,” he said; “there are
good judges of paper money. I used to be a
fair judge, but no expert can tell the differ—
ence between two lines made by a ruling ma-
chine. The geometrical lathe work which is
the great security Oll bank work is mechanic-
ally cut with a lathe that costs from $3,000 to
88,000. Witnesses, called as experts, have
sworn that this work can’t be imitated, but
there are a dozen men in New York who can
make so perfect acopy of it that he who made
the original can’t tell it, and the ilnitator
need not be an artist either. But that is not
a great danger to paper money. The differ-
ent styles of chemical engraving are now
almost familiar knowledge, and it is well
known that by such processes the elaborate
lathe work on the greenka can be copied as
accurately as manuscript canbe copied photo-
graphically, and when printed in carbon or
colored inks are about equal to the original.
mrra’rmo scaom. WORK.
“The fact is a man cannot make that which
a less able man cannot counterfeit. although
he could not create the original. For exam-
ple, if you will examine the scroll cut by the
geometrical lathe you will see in the seal that
some eight parts are all duplicates of the
other, that ill these divisions there is simply a
repetition of the same forms and intersec-
tions. The imitator in cutting his plate
would certainly never 0 to the trouble of
cutting a complete circ He would make
one of the divisions and then repeat it in the
chemical printing. The most difficult thing
to make in counterfeiting are the likenemes.
The infinite variety of human expression,
which can be created by a line, the faintest
shadow, the merest deviation in the angle of
a curve of the lip, the set of the nostrils, are
so far from arbitrary that one can only be
copied with infinite pains.”
“What is an approximate figure represent~
ing the amount of foreign moneys counter-
feited here?" '
“It is enormous. I have the authority of
the Brazilian minister for the statement that
$200,000,000 of counterfeit money is circu-
lated in Brazil. Money for the South Amer-
ican countries has all been liberally counter-
feited, and even Bank of'England notes. But
it is a curious fact that the counterfeited
money of foreign countries emanating from
here is nearly exclusively of those who have
come here to have their money made.
“Bank note counterfeiting was most preva-
lent during the reign of the state banks, but
the boys had to hurry up or the bank would
fail before they could get their stuff out. I
was caught twice in that way and had no re-
dress, as the banks had no assets. The coun-
terfeits then were generally poor and there
was seldom an attempt at imitation. When
all imitation was attempted by an amateur,
who had picked up engraving, he would so-
lect his note, Oil it to make it transparent.

needle (using a microscope) he would prick
through the lines on the note and then follow
the dots with a Egraver, which would repro-

ing of the landscape, the beautiful lines of
the portraits and the delicate ruling were lost,

AN ENGLISH SPECIAL ARTIST.
Ills Experiences in Following Up [’0-
litical Agitation.
Great golitical excitement, there is no
doubt, turns men’s heads. Once I recollect
finding a most dignified provincial politician
In this state, and necessity compelled me to
turn him into a sketching stool. Mr. Glad-
stone was speaking at Bingley hall. Birming-
ham. I could not, being only five feet two,
see over the heads of others when all stood to
cheer. I mentioned this fact to my neighbor.
“Oh, you must not miss'this scene!" he said,
and quickly, without ceremony, he had me
on his back, his bald head serving as an easel.
It has struck me since that had this old gentle-
mull, a big man in his native town and still
bigger ill his own estimation, seen himself as
others saw him at that moment, the proba-
bility is that he would not have felt anything
like so kindly to me as I did to him.

my surprise the artist of a rival paper sat be-
side nle. He did not frighten me away, but
candidly confessed that ho had seen a private
telegram of mine saying I was starting and
his editor packed him oil‘ by the same train.
Ha! I mustbe equal to him! I sat up all
night and drew off a page on wood, ready for
engraving, and sent it off by the first train in
the morning. It was in the press before my
' rival's rough notes left Liverpool. One would
hardly think, to see candles stuck in my
boots, that the hotel was the Old Adelphi. I

SOCIALISTS DEFEATED.
HENRY GEORGE SAYS THEY WOULD
KILL THE LABOR PARTY.
The Credential Committee So Organized
That the Socialists Will Have No-Show.
Dr. MoOlynn Declares They Will Not
Tolerate Any [In-American Ideas.
SYRACUSE, Aug. 18.-Almost 800 delegates
and alternates filed their credentials with
Secretary Augustus A. Davey, of the United
Labor party convention committee, at the
headquarters, soon after the arrival of the
early morning trains yesterday. Henry
George and Dr. McGlynn came in on the
train from New York in time for breakfast
Editor S. E. Shevitch, of The Leader, came
up on the same train with George, and they
had an hour’s conference in the sleeping car,
in which Mr. Shevitch vainly tried to induce
Mr. George to consent to terms of peace
with the Socialists.
After dinner the convention assembled in
the Alhambra rink. The rink is 210 feet
long by 80 feet wide. It holds 3,000 people.
American flags draped the shiny rafters.
Nota foreign flag waste be seen. At the
end was the coat of arms of the United
States.
As chairman of the executive committee,
Jeremiah Murphy called the convention to
order. Aug. A. Levey, secretary of the com-
mittee on arrangements, acted as secretary,
and read the call under which the conven-
tion was assembled. The roll of delegates
was then called. Dr. McGlynn’s name was
first on the roll, as he was the first man from
the First assembly district of New York.
Frank Fermi], the colored delegate from the
Eleventh, was applauded, and when it came
down to George’s name there was moi-esp-
plause. During the call of the roll delegates
rose with protests against allowing certain
names. This was the opening of the Social-
istic light. The chair ruled-that protests and
notices of contests should be made in 'writing
and filed with the committee on credentials.
- There were three districts with contests—
the Eighth, Tenth and Fourteenth, of New
York: In the Eighth, Hugo Vogt, Frederick
Bergmann and J. G. Stein were the Socialist
delegates, and John N. Bogart, W. P. Auteu-
reth and J. F. Clancy, contestants. In the
Tenth the Socialists were Max Booth, E. S.
Shevitch and Lawrence Grenhut, and the
contestants Aug. W. Meyer, Thomas Bear
and John Brannig. Only two members of
the Fourteenth were contested, F. G. Schai-
der hole on both, tickets. The others were
George it Black and Walter Vroolnan,
' Socialists, and William McGuire and Dennis
J. Quirk contestants The names of both
delegates and contestants were placed on the
roll and both were allowed seats in the con-
vention. The only other contest was on
young Dr. Gottheil’s substitution for A. R.
Hamilton in the Twenty-first. A delegate
in his shirt sleeves jumped up and protested
against the substitution, but as he had no
reason to give for his objection Dr. Gott-
heil’s name was placed on the roll. Henry
George, Jr., appeared as a delegate from
Portchoster, and Louis F. Post, John J.
Bealin, James P. Archibald and other New
Yorkers represented country districts.
To prevent a Socialistic break at the start,
Chairman Murphyread the decision of the
convention committee on the contested seats.
It decided that cards should be issued to all
contestants, but that would not admit that
they had any rights. The contestants had
only the privilege of appearing on the floor.
All questions were to be referred to the com-
mittee on credentials when appointed, and
until then neither the delegates nor contest- '
ants were to be allowed to speak or vote.
This meant that the Socialists were to be
kept chained up until .the committee on
credentials could report in favor of 'boun-
cing them. The Socialists at once triedto
break loose. 'Mr. Shevitch rose to speak. Mr.
Groasdale objected that under the report of
the committee no delegate whose seat was
contested could speak. Mr. Burke made the
point of order that the convention had not
yet organized, and that it (had no right to
proceed until it is. The point was overruled.
George G. Block and Hugo Vogt, two other
Socialists, tried to get the floor and were
ruled out because their seats were contested.
John McMackin moved that a delegate be
allowed to speak if his seat was contested
The motion was put and the Socialists had
their first defeat.
Louis F. Post and Frank Ferrall, the col-
ored delegate from New York,",;were nomi-
nated for temporary chairmah,.-the former
being Victorians by a vote of 91 to 69.
On taking the chair, Mr. Post made a
brief address, which was well received.
When he spoke of Americans and American
institutions there were cheers from the anti-
Socialists.
Post’s election was the second defeat for
the Socialists. Post was defeated by Lucian
Daniel, a Socialist, for delegate to the cono
vention from the Twenqy-fourth district, in
which he lives. He was elected from Albany,
and partly as a rebuke to the Socialists was
chosen temporary chairman.
Resolutions were passed to have the report
of the committee 'on credentials first, and to
request it to hurry up. After a motion to
limit speeches to five minutes and that no
man should Speak twice had been passed at
the demand of Socialists, who said that
otherwise they would not have a chance to
say anything, the convention adopted the
resolution to hurry up the credential com-
mittee and have it report at 7 o‘clock, if pos-
sible, by a vote of 108 to 44, the Socialists
voting in the negative. A recess was then
taken till 7 o’clock.
The committee on credentials organized by
electing W. T. Croasdale chairman and John
J. Bealin secretary. Both are anti-Socialists,
and favor the seating of every contestant of
a Socialist’s seat. The Socialists proposed to
enter into a discussion of the credentials of
all the delegates, but by a vote of 19 to B It
was decided to hear the contested seats only.
The Socialists voted with the minority.
By this time it was 7 o’clock, and the con-
vention reassembled. The committee had
another session, and after many'speeches de-
cided in favor of the contestants of the seats
of the Socialists The names mentioned for
permanent chairman were Louis F. Post and
John McMackin, of New York, and John B.
O’Donnell, of Brooklyn. The Socialists
offered to compromise on the nineteenth
plank of the Knights of Labor, and said that
if the convention would take it they would
be satisfied. This plank reads:
“We favor the establishing of co-operative
institutions, such as will tend to supersede
the wage question by the introduction of a.
cooperative industries system.”
Several anti-Socialist planks were pro
posed. One of the strongest reads: .
“We condemn European socialism We
believe the solution of the wage question is
to leave each men free to employ himself.
We believe in the free spirit of competition,"
There was a mass meeting at the rink in
the evening. The Rev. Hugh 0. Pentecost,
Louis F. Pest, Dr. McGlynn, Henry George
and John McMackin spoke to 11 large audi-
ence. In his speech Dr. Hcfllyuu denounced
socialism, and wanted .0 have it understood
that the Labor party was opposed in social
ism and socialistic ideas. They had no plans
in the Labor party. The speech was heartily
applauded _

TABOR’S THREE MINES.
FROM PLODDING STOREKEEPER TO
SUCCESSFUL SPECULATOR.
The lioumnces of Little Pittsbnrg, Chrys-
olite and Matchless—The Luck'IVhieh
Lay in a {‘Grli'b Stuke"—Not Broken in
Fortune.
At leng.h came the realization of the car-
bonate wealth hidden in these Iliils. \thre
Oro had been established ill 1800 Leadville
was laid out in 1878. Even in this period of
new excitement Taber’s head was not turned
from his routine of storekeep‘ing. His trade
boomed naturally with the growth of the
camp, which added to its population as many
as 500 a day during the big rush. Lawyers,
gamblers, everybody flocked to the hills and
laid out claims, and strained their bucks at
the pick and Windlass. Tabor was not so
carried away. He stood behind the counter
and weighed out the bacon and the meal.
“He was a steady going—you might say
plodding—storekeeper,” is the description
given by the pioneers. “That was all there
was to him. Nobody ever thought of him as
a mining man.”
Occasionally the impecunious prospector
came to Tabor with a proposition for a “grub
stake.” The storekeeper usually fell in with
the suggestion, and weighed the supplies.
The minor shouldered the pack and went over
the hill. .Aud Tabor entered up so many
pounds of bacon and so many pounds 0 our
to profit and loss. How many minors abor
has “grub staked” ill his time Leadville does
not pretend to say. Probably the number is
well along ill the hundreds. If anything
came of this “grub staking” for nearly twenty
years no record has been kept' of the fact.
But Tabor accumulated a few thousands and
n good name during this plodding period of
his life. No ill word is spoken of him use.
Storekeeper.
One day a miner named Rische made the
usual credit arrangement with Tabor for
“grub," walked up the hill as so lnuny others
had done before him, nlld went to work. He
came down town of evenings, and got a tailor
interested with him in the prospect. The
tailor was George Hook, who, after listening
to Riscllc's speculations about the claim,
chucked his goose under the table, followed
the‘luincr up the hill, and wont to work at the
shaft. For some time Tabor would have re-
signod that “grub stake” claim for fifty cents
on the dollar, ulld George Hook secretly ro-
grettcd the day he left the bench to become a
mining lunn.
.. But the time came when two of the part-
ners sold out their thirds for $100,000 apiece,
while Tabor, true to his character for hang-
ing (in, stayed in and saw that claim yield
$8,000 a day, half of which he put in his pocket
as the interest on‘his “grub stake” principal.
This is the romance of Little Plttsburg.
Tabor, the plodding Storekeeper, became an-
other mau rutircly. He and Jerome B.
Chalfco held on to Little Pittsburguutil it
yielded $8,000 a day. Then they stocked it.
One day when they had just received returns
from the latest shipment to the smelter and
Were sitting in the back room of the bank,
Tabor said to Chalice: “We'll stock this mine
for 810,000,000. ”
“Oh. no,” protested Chalice, “that's too
much. Make it $2,000,000, or something rea-
sonable like that.”
“Come to think of it, though,” said Tabor,
paying no attention to the interruption, “I
believe we’ll make It $20,000,000.”
And they did. The 200,000 shares at 8100
par value were issued, and climbed until
they reached 885, representing a capital of
87,000,000. And then Tabor showed that be-
sides pOssessing a capacity for holding on, he
know when to let go. Telling people plainly
that while Little Pittsllurg was a great mine,
he didn’t luxlievo it was a fair equivalent for
that valuation, he let go of his stock. There
were plonly ol' takers, for the reports made
by cripcrfv could not have been more glowing

lust dividend is ominous-«J‘March, 1850,"
in fdnr mouths Tabor made out of Little
Pittsburg $1,300,000. But his luck didn’t
stop them. There used to be a character in
Leadvillo known as Chicken Bill. His
mother knew him as William Lovell.
Chicken Bill took up a claim on Fryer hill
and worked it industriously for some weeks.
But after the shaft got down to such a depth
that it was quite tiresome to haul the dirt up
in a bucket, he became disgusted. In the
language of Leadville, “he hadn’t a smell of
ore." Bill left his shaft one night and walked
down the hill. As he came to George Frycr’s
New Discovery mine his eyes fell on some
very good ore, which had just bten taken
out. Bill looked around. That was be-
fore the days of watchmen at the
dump: und when all Leadville was sup-
posell'to be honest. Bill gathered up a lot of
ore. what he could carry comfortably, walked
back to his shaft, and threw the chunks in.
Then he went down town in a. very good
Iunnor. The next morning bright and early
he was down his shaft pounding away among
the rocks. About noon he went down town
and told Tabor and others that. he had “struck
it.” at lust. Tabor, flushed with his Little
Pittsburg experience, was then on the lookout
for anything and everything, and he sent a
mall upto see what Chicken Bill had got.
The investigator came back and l’epmwll
“several inches of nice looking ore in sight,"
Tabor asked bill what he wanted for his find,
and Bill said he owed 8100 for “grub,” which
mustbe wiped out. and on top of that be 7
wanted $50 for spending money. Tabor paid
$150 and took possession. He sank that suited
shill: five feet from where Bill had stopped and .
struck ore that yielded over $1,000,000.
This is the romance of the discovery of
Cllrysolite. Chicken Bill couldn’t. stand it.
Prosperity by proxy was too much for him.
He told the whole story on himself. Chicken
Bill’s claim and those f the Chrysolite Mill-
ing cmnpnuy consolidated with it have
yielded £1,550,000. but no dividends have been
paid slur-- December. 1884.
The Matchless was another illustration 9!
Taber's wonderful luck. Tim Foley and his
partners, Wilgus and the others, worked this
claim until they had discovered some are and
sold out to Tabor for $112,000. They Went
around Lcadvillo shaking hands and recclw

out of sight the small boy would throw away
the blackberries which he had collected, but
did not care to eat, and knowing by long ex.
perienoe where the big speckled fellows loved
to lurk, he would dart to a deep still spot,
well shaded, and where the bank overhung
the water. Then, crawling to the edge, he
would look cautiously over. If u trout was
basking near the surface the dirty little hand,
making no perceptible ripple ill the stream,
so carefully was it put in, was soon under it.
The fingers were then raised until, with al-
most incredible gentleness, their points
touched the trout's stomach, when a slight
oscillation was commenced. This was the
‘tickling’ part of the maneuver. The boys
thought the trout enjoyed it, but perhaps
they supposed that it was only M 31094.5
softly brushing them. Anyhow, it rarely dis.-
turbed them, and the hand gradually nmumed
a surer position, until, with a dexterous
movement, swift as the lightning flash, the
fish was cast outof the water, generally on
the opposite bnnk. The probability is that

Mrs. Hamilton Fisll's Thoughtfulnc».
Harry O’Connor wasnot only a bright
young journalist, but he carried with him a
degree of personal dignity seldom attained
by the newspaper fraternity. He had done
some service ,in Washington and had made
the acquaintance of Charley Godfrey’s wine
room, which was then located on Pennsyl-
vania avenue, near Fourteenth street, and '
which stood so high in‘ the esteem of connois—
seurs that even gentlelllen like Hamilton Fish
not infrequently purchased their braudies and
Madeiras at that mart. O’Connor was one day
dispatched by his newspaper to interview the
secretary at Garrison’s Landing, where he
was spendingp vacation.
, The secretary being out when the inter-
viewer called, thc servant took the card to
Mrs. Fish, who received the visitOr with dis—
tinguished consideration. At the close of a
pleasant conversation, ill which O’Connor
tried hard to,bo just as dignified and elegant
as the estimable lady herself, Mrs. Fish, with
that combination of tact and grace that
neVer failed her, begged to return the gentle-
man’s card. “You may possibly find further
use for this card.” she said. It just happened
that O’Conllongs card case was pretty low at
the time, and, taking back the card in
the spirit in which it was offered, be
thanked her for her thoughtful kindness.
Plate cards at-that time would probably cost
about five cents each. Without looking at
‘ the card'O’Connor put it back into his case.
Some time afterward he was relating the
incident'for the edification of a number of
friends that they might admire the thought-
fulncs of Mrs. Fish. “I’d like to have that
card,"01ie of the friends remarked. “You
can have it if you will promise to take good
care of it,” said O’Connor, and he opened his
card ccsonudhanded the card over. Then,
for the first time, it was noticed that on, the
back of the card was this memorandum:
“Don’t forgetto pay Godfrey on Saturday
32.75 for whisky.” Then it occurred to O’Con-
nor tbnt it was on account of this memoran-
dum, and not‘fbr mere economy, that Mrs.
Fish had returned it. Godfrey’s name was
familiar to her, and she did not want the
honest debtor to forget to pay the score.-
‘ Washington Post.
Lassoing a Sea Lion.
“The best sea lion contract I ever made was
with P. T. Barnum, in 1871,” said Capt. Cyrus
Eastman to a reporter. “His agent entered
into ,a contract with me to deliver a pair
alive to llilll in New York city, and paid me
$1,000 upon my signing the papers. and the
final output was something like $10,000. I
took' two lnen and went to Santa Barbara,
jwhere I chartered a schooner and took on
board six of the best lassoers (vaquews) that
I could get. '
“San Miguel Islands at that time was alive
with sea lions. There was no trouble in 1115-.
soing a sea lion, but the difficulty was to
make the lasso hold, as a sea lion's neck is
larger than his-head. It was all right as long
as he was headed from you, but as soon as he
turned the riata would slip of! and you lost
him. -
“My only cupture on the first trip was
three small ones, but as they did not come up
to the required weight for Barnum I sold
them to John Robinson, at Omaha, where
they were an immense attraction.
“On my second trip I added to my force
and took a hunting crew of eight men, and
profiting by my former experience I had my
rlatas fixed with fishhooks, and also well
plastered with reslnnbut I could not hold the
beasts, and so -I shot one, and throwing the
lasso over ll flipper I found' that it would
hold. All that a seal has to do is to give me
his flipper and I have got him.
“My men were all indians. i took one of
them and showed him the trick, and the next
morning we went into the sea lions’ rookcry
and caught four. I went to San Francisco
immediately and placed my captives in a salt
water tank and kept them there until the de-
parture of the next steamer for Panama. I
got them safely over the isthmus and landed
them alive and well in New York and got
my pay.”—-Sau Francisco Examiner.
Bountiful Barkecpcrs.
“The handsomest , men in New York,“ said
a well known physician the othordny‘, “are
the bartenders. The modern bartender of a
flcst class burl-min is required to. be nbstcmli.
, our. in his habits, Saloon keepers, us ll. rule,
do not want a luau around them who drinks.
The result is that bartcudels have good song,-
plcxions and clear eyes. They have plenty of
time to pay attention to their personal up
penruuce, and as a class make up better than
any other set of men in New York. You
‘llligllt put a hundred of them in a bull room
and they would outshiuo the pick and flower
of New York aristocracy."——New York
