OBITUARY. Cornelius Newton BI; New York, Oc “ornelius New- on Bliss, for years one of the promi- ent figures in national republican pol- itics and otherwise well known' as a { merchant and a_member of the dry- goods firm of Bli Fdbyan & co Lany. died at his home here tonight of heart disease. The end was not wholly unexpected, for Mr. Bliss had been ill for a year, and his family and friends had noted for some time that he was fast failing. He did not take to his bed, however. until a few days ago. While his death jo attributed to heart failure, there has been a general breakdown due to| 0ld age. ~Mr. Bliss was 78 vears old, 1833. Mrs. Bliss, M and Mrs, Bliss, Jr., and Miss L. P. Gaughter, were at the bedside. rangements for the funeral had been made at a late hour tonight. They will be announced tomorrow. The death of Mr. Bliss removes an- other of the coteric who have been in the forefront of the republican party's management for a generation or more. He was treasurer of the republican na- tionai committee from 1902 to 1908 and previously was chairman of the New York state republican.committee, With the late Senator Platt, Senator Depew. and cx-Governor Levi P, Morton, he represented New York state at repub- lican state and national conventions. He frequently refused the nomination % governor of New York. After the election of President McKinley he ac- cepted the position of secretary of the interior. He held this post two years and then resignefl because of stress of private business. Freeman G. Smith. York, Oct. 9.-Freeman G.

Washington, Oct, 9.—After a search across the continent and up into Brit- ish Columbia, the secret service oper- atives today captured Albert Leon, a Russian political refugee, as he was | about to leave New York for Dutch Guiana, Leon is alleged to be at the head of an extensive —counterfeiting gang. which has flooded ths Pacific coast with spurious ten-dollar bank- notes during the-last year. The secret service was advised to- day Leon was alleged to have per- fected a process by which he photo- graphed the fact of a note that looked so much like surface printing (hat many experts declared it to have been printed from etched plate. Two of Leon’s alleged confederates, Rudolph Swanson and Fred Marneck, were ar- rested in Chicago two weeks ago. These two men are charged with pass- ing some of the counterfeit money. Teon arrived in this country about three yyears ago. FHe took up a sec- tion of land, near Beaumont, near Los Angeles, Cal., where it is belleved the first spurious notes were made. In December, 1910, he went to Nootka island in British Columbia and it was charged that most of his counterfeit worlk came out of his plant there. HAD' ONLY REAL MONEY. Search of Leon Fails to Disclose Any of the Counterfeit. New York, Oct. 9.—When Leon was placed under arrest the secret service men found on his person $200 in real money and an express money order for $600. No spurious currency was found in his pockets and a search of his room revealed nothing which would kconnect him with counterfeiting opera- tions. He had a camera which he said he had purchased in_Chicago. At the time of his arrest he was about to purchase a ticket to Deme- rara, Dutch Guiana. He will be ar- raigned tomorrow before United States Commissioner Shields. PURIFICATION, OF ATLANTIC CITY Political Leaders and Liguor Dealers Being Prosecuted: Mays Landing, N.
