San Francisco, Oct. ia From ad
vices received, A. 0. Wright of Seattle
tends etrohgly to the belief that Harry
T. Newman and William J.-Swartz of
San Francisco, together with four com
panions, whose names are not known,
have peri-hed on the Taku river, while
ou the way to the Klondike.
The plainest inference that can be
deducted from the meagre iuformation
at hand is tnat the entire par y was
massacred by Indians. This or else they
were drowned in the swift current of
the Ala-kan -tream. Nothing more is
known here regarding their fate than
they were alive and well on Sept. 15 at
a point 80 miles up the river from Taku
inlet.
Harry T. Newman is about 42 years
old and has a wife and child living in
Los Angeies. Swartz was about 37
years old. He came from Philadelphia
origiua lv and has no relatives on the
coast. He followed the' trade of car
penter, but had some mining experience
in Fresno county.

ville, imposing a license or tax on these
stores. He intimated the taxing ordi
nance was void, but said the liquors in
original package stores were confiscated
to the state and these men had no in
terest in liquors which could have state

CONVICTS MAKE BAD COIN,
Humber of Prisoner* In the lllvereide Pen
• Imrired Illi Counterfeiting
Pittsburg. Oct. 18—Warden E S.
Wright of the Riverside pettiteut-iary
has discovered that a number ot the
convicts confined in the institution have
beeu manufacturing counterfeit 50-cent
pieces. He has unearthed the meral
from whieh the ’•queer” money wa* l
made, the mouis in which it was cast
aud the names of several of the convicts
who were connected with the mutter,
but us yet he has been unable t.> find
the man who originated aud curried out
the scheme. ,
The counterfeits are magnificent spec
imens of the coiner’s art. The die from
which they are made is almost perfect,
and the milling of the coins, which is
the government’s chief protection of
metal money from those who would im
itate it, is as near perfect as it is possi
ble for human ingenuity to make it,
and that such coins could be made
within the walls of the Riverside peni
tentiary with the crude implements to
be obtained by the prisoners is the start
ling feature of the case The counter
feiters had already secured a connection
with outside parties and some of the
money is m>w in circulation.
Warden Wright has a list of nearly a
•cor .’ of con vims and persons sunno-ed
to be connected with the counter.sit
ing, and when tile full story of the
crime comes ..nt it. is said there will be
some seusatioual developments.
