The Secret Service division at Wash- ington has discovered a counterfeit of the new issue of the $2 silver certifi- cates, series 1886, check letter B— 2235, W. S. Rosecrans register, James W. Hyatt treasurer. The most marked difference between this note and the genuine, and a difference which will result in the detection of the counter- feit at a glance, is that the upper loop of the J in the signature James Hyatt points directly between the D. C. after Washington in the genuine, while in the counterfeit it is about one- eighth of an inch to the left or imme- diately under the letter D. Still Unidentified. Coroner Doten went to Westport yes- terday to inquire further into the cir- cumstances surrounding the death of the man found beside the Consolidated tracks in that village with various wounds upon his head and face. While there were some suspicious circum- stances taken in the whole the proba~ bility that the man was accidentally struck b a passing train gains ere- dence. ' here is a possibility that the man was trying to ride on the trucks when he met his death. The body has not yet-been identified. The coroner had a photograph made of it that will serve purposes of identification. The railroad officials have been written to for the purpose of. ascertaining if the man was put off a train. . Died on the Train. Frederick Lockwood, the oldest con- ductor on the Consolidated road, was stricken with apoplexy on'his train Sat- urda morning near Stamford. He died efore reaching his home in New Rochelle. _ Mr. Lockwood had been in the em- ploy of the New Haven road for nearly 40 years. his first service having been as a brakeman on the New .York and Portchester special in 1855. Four years later he became conductor of. the New York and Norwalk special, which .he ran for a number of years. In addition to his duties asconduetor, when at the New York end of hisroute, he assisted ' Station Master Jacob Mendell.

Mrs. Harrison, wife of President Harrison,died:at 1 :45 Tuesday morning. The end came peacefully and she passed away Without a struggle. Her breathing was scarcely preceptible to those around her bedside and her life went out before they had fairly real- ized it. When the fatal moment arrived sur- rounding the bedside were the presi- dent, the other members of the family, Dr. Gardner and the nurses. All night long they had remained by the bedside, expecting her death at any moment. Late Monday afternoon it was thought she had passed away and the fact was telegraphed broadcast. How- ever, she revivcd and made a feeble fight for life, but s e was too weak to conquer. The family had no hope af- ter D_r. Gardner’s announcement in the morning that the distinguished patient was beyond recvery. The scene in the bedchamber when the Grim Reaper’s presence was an- nounced was pathetic. The president who had worn himself out through constant watching at the bedside, was assisted to his room. The other mem- bers were led away weeping. The history of rs. Harrison’s fatal illness is best told in the language of her physician, Dr. Frank A. Gardner, as follows: . Mrs. Harrison’s illness was the out- come of an attack of grip during the. winter of 1890-1891, which left her with a cough lasting for several weeks. While at Cape May Point in the sum- mer of 1891 she contracted a cold which caused a return of the cough and it lasted during the entire summer. In the following March she had a se- vere attack of the grip, followed by catarrhal pneumonia lasting about nine days. The coughing spells then in- creased in severity, until at last they .were accompanied by bloody expecte- rations, and about the first of May she suffered from a hemorrhage of the lungs, which although not very severe, caused great prostration. FrOm this time until J 1111!: 6, the date of her removal to Loon ‘ake, N. Y.. there ‘was a rise of temperature of ‘ about three degrees each night. At the time of Mrs. Harrison’s removal to Washington, Sept. 20, her right lung was entirely consolidated. The dis- ease progressed steadily, resisting treatment with every known remedy until eventually the left lung became involved and then the condition of the patient was hopeless. _ ___.__-__._‘...
