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.

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. i’he llid.i. at *’.»rl lioynl, Columbia, ;L C., Oct. 18.—Informa tion bus been received .here that the battleship Maine, which it was an nounced a few days ago had been or dered to Port- Royal to be docked, naa been at Port Royal, in the lower bay, since Monday.
