THEIR ARREST BY THE TREASURY RES SER VICE MEN. ‘The secret service agents report the arrest tn New Jersey of two of the leading counterfeit ers in the United States. Tuey are Chas. Ul- rich and Henry C. Cole, better known as Harr Cole, Ulrich was arrested recently at his hom in Fanwood, N. J., while engaged in engraving the plates for a counterfeit lezal tender note of the denomination of $10¢. Upon his arrest he frankly disclosed to Chief Brooks, who with his assistants, made the arrest, the names of the the plates. Ile gave such information as to the future intentions of his employer—to tarnish the press, paper and other material to be used in the printing of the notes when the plate completed—as induced the chief hold him tn e confinement in his own house to await the arrival of his employer. Yesterday afternoon Henry Cole, the employer, put in an appear- ane He had in hls po ssion some of th expected articles, and was at once arres Both men will have a hearing to-d: ‘8. Commissioner Keasbey, in New: A COUNTERFEITER'S LIFE. Ulrich is by birth a Prussian, of fine presence and genial manners. He is about 43 years old and has been in the United States about 20 years, He has served two terms of tmnprison- ment, one at Sing Sing and the other in the Co- lumbus, Ohio, penitenuary; both for counte felting. In the latter place he was sentenced tor 12 years in June, 1s6s. He was pardoned in In¥6, having served eight years of the tme for which he was sentenced. " Among tne finely en- graved counterfeits e: to his conviction in 156s were $100 counterfelt on Ay; $10 counterielt on tke First National Bank, of Boston; $100 counterfeit on the Ohio National Bank, Cincinnati, Ohio. When arrested in Cin- cinnall tn 1s6v he was engaged upon and had heariy completed the back plate for a $500 U. 8. note. ‘Tere were also found in his possession unfinished plates for a $5 counterteit not Since his release in 1876 he has been unusually active In his nefarious business asa counter- feiter. He has engraved plates and printed counterfeit issues, as follows: Fifty dollar coun- terfeit on the Central National Bank, city of New York; $0 on Third National Bank, Buffalo; #5 on First National Bank, Tamaqua, Pa ; $5 on the First National Bank, Hanover, Pa.; $50 on Nattonal Broadway Bank, New York; and $0 on Tradesmen’s National Bank, New York, THE GERMAN EMIGRANT SWINDLE. It will be remembered that the counterfeit issues on the two latter banks found their way Hamburg and other European ports, and were passed upon migrants leaving those ports lor the United States. The work of Issuing counterfeit notes of the same denomination on different banks is greatly facilitated by what is Known to the counterfeiter as skeleton or transfer plates, by means of which he can, by Senied the title and location of the bank, together with the signatures of the president and cashier (the work of a week), produce a full set of Tg by which the issues of any } tonal bank in the same state can be counte felted. COLE'S CAREER. The guiding spirit under whose direction all the mischief wrought by Charles Ulrich was accomplished, was Henry Cole. He is an old ccunterfetter and an ex-convict, about 64 years of age. He has a large family, lives in good style in Philadelphia, drives his horses, and has @ Valuable farm a few miles out from that eit He served a term in the Clinton (N. Y.) pen tentiary, and waspardoned by Governor Hoff- man early in 18i1. In October, of the same year, he was again arrested in New Yorx, having a few moments previously sold $5,000 1n coun- terfeit ten and twenty dollar bank notes. He Was adinitted to bail in $10,000, and subse- quently giving information in relation to th operations of an alleged counterfeiter name t liner, a nolle pros was entered in his case, Im mediately after the release of Ulrich from the Columbus, Ohio, penitentiary, Harry Cole pall him a visit to induce him to aan take up coun- terfelting. The result of his step is above stated. Cole, being a man of some means, has controlled Uirieh’s operations from 1sy6 up to the time of his arrest. ‘The relations between them were that of employerandemployee.

Dr. J. F. May sald the trouble seemed to him to be that while three-fifths of the propert owners in the District paid their taxes promy jy there were two-fifths who would not pay and who never intended to pay. Tie thougiit the Springer bill, which allowed the revision ot | assessments to be appealed to the courts, meant only delay. Congress at tts list session had di- rected the matter of the revididn of assessments be referred to the District Commissioners, and they had entered upon that duty. The oaly question was, he thought, shall this tmportant work be allowed to go on? Is Congress to d cide how its laws shall be carried out, ort Commissione! Dr. May said that he had been formed by the tax clerk of the District that “ague, the agent of property-holders, had on between 109 and 15 f them. He is the representative Y ClasS Who refuse to pay.

Se. M Said that he thotlght it was but just fo explain the position of the committee with reference to its action on the assessment, bill which passed last session. The idea was to refund to LWo-Titths of the citizens of the Dis- trict who bad not paid their taxes whatever, upon a revision of the assessments, should be shown to be erroneously assessed. The Dill looked like a fair one to the committee. It de- sired that those who had not paid their taxes should be compelled to. When the bill was be- ing considered there were no outsiders before the committee to influence their action except a Jawyer, who represented the delinquent tax- payers. After he had made some objections we asked him bluntly what kind ofa bill would suit these delinquents, when he answered: “No bill at all.”, The truth, It struck the committee, Was that the delinquents wanted to get out of paying their taxes. Mr. Bouck said, with refer- ence to the assessment decision made by the Supreme Court, that he did think, from a casual reading of it, that the court held the assess- ments of the late board of public Works to be illegal. The trouble with the Springer bill is that it repeals too many laws. Mr. Wm. Dickson thought that the main trou- ble was the pernicious assessments of the board of public works, and the fact that while the Commissioners were carrying out the act of June 19th last, aecording to'the letter of the law, they were not set ge 8 it out in the spirit yee Lou ti oe = ples with e law. nou; . that the taxpayer Who had pald his taxes should have refunted to himvany charge which he had paid under an erroneous assessment. While the act of June 19th last was a benefit te delinquents, it did not confer any privilege on the prompt tax- payer. Mr. Bouck said he thought the Commissioners meant to do justice to all, and do it honestly. Mr. Clagget spoke at some length on the Wrongs of the poor taxpayer. He attacked the late board of public works, and said their acts and memory were a stench in the nostrils of the citizens of the District. Before concluding his remarks, Mr. Bouck adjourned the hearing untti Saturday next at 10 o'clock. ne. pa coe Resa! Coad ion grounds, Sold at auc- tion February 8.
