A keen stiletto gleamed in the hand of Ple- tro, who headed the gang. Kennedy dodged the blow which was aimed at him, but in so doing another Black Hander wrenched his pistol away, and for an instant he was defenseless, A crash, and a shower of broken jass fell on us as the skylight ovei ead gave way. Literally from the sky three of our men dropped into the midst of the fray, ‘That turned the tide, We now outnumbered the counterfelters by one man, “Shoot!” yelled Pietro, fighting viciously. “We are surrounded, Shoot them, and break through.” A volley of shots followed, filling the room with stifling smoke, Our men and the gangsters had fired simultaneously. One of our mon dropped groaning to the floor, and the Black Handers closed up around one of their own number, whose right arm had been splintered. They were now massed together for ® final rush, a sort of flying wedge, with Pietro at the apex.

As they met our three men coming up from the back yard they bowled them over on the stairs like tenpins, We Pressed forward, for if they passed our last line they might still escape. A loud oath in Italian came from below, and we heard Ptetro's yolc “They have barred the door again. Beat it down!” Our men had succeeded in gaining entrance from the back, had locked that door, and had the forethought to barricade the door which we had burst in from the street. It furnished just the instant of delay we needed Instantly we were upon them. They were now outnumbered two to one, Stull they fought desperately, The last to be captured was Pietro himself, and it took Baird and two of his best men to hold him while the “nippers” were slipped on him, They had all fought like tigers, and would have won had we not overwhelmed them by sheer numbers, Panting, perapiring in the toy night alr, and streaming with blood from many gashes, we all stood glaring at each other, the four counterfeiters, Pietro, Balvatore, Francesco, and Do- minico, now safely handcuffed and disarmed, “Come, Walter, atrike a light while I let this one up,” called Kennedy, from above, We had forgotten him in the melee. 1 took the stairs two at a time, fol- lowed by the rest, Baird never taking his eyes off hie prize, Pietro, whom he drove before him as it he were a Caesar triumphantly leading the most feroctous barbarian in chains. I struck @ match and held it up, only to drop it In astonishment. The man that Ci holding was not Moore, aa I had half expected. it was Miller, As we paused for an instant to col lect our prisoners and the evidence, we looked about the back room of the photograph gallery in amazement. Here was an engraving plant in !t- self, neat and compact, In Bundies lay some very handsome specimens of ten and one-hundred-dollar bills.

It had been bought, an we learned later, and sent to an- other address, where it wis disas- sembled by Ptetro, the master me- chanican of the who could tear apart and rebulid anything with cogs and levers. Then it had been smuggled in here, piece by piece, and assembled again, Pietro it was, too, who made the original photographs, while Dominico and he made the plates.
