COUNTERFEITERS CAPTURED A Raid by the Police Last Night Upon a Den in Full Operation. Ywo of tkfi Counterfeiters Arrested, and Their Molds, with Sonic of the Spurious Coin, Captured by the Officers. For ten days past, probably a longer time, the police authorities have had information of the manufacture of counterfeit money at No. 165 East South street Isaac Reynolds rented four cr five rooms oi: the house from a man named Robinson. A proper time was waited for before * raid on the place was organized. While the police were thus watching thoir opportunity shady nickels, in considerable quantity, made their appearance in the lines of small trade. Reynolds's rooms are alonside a narrow alley, rnpn?'-~ from the south sid*> of South st% c j, Into this alley, and from the rear Poo ms he occupied, a door led. T/Ast night Captain Campbell, Sergeant Quigley and Patrolmen Clarke and Schwab were ready fer operations against the den, and about half past S o’clock, with details of location fathered by Schwab and Clarke fully fixed, started for the place. At the opening of the alley two officers waited until the other two went do wn to reconnoiter. Within five minutes the signal was given, and the four policemen H>ade a rush for the door, which gave way at the first assault They dashed into the room, covered Reynolds and his partner with their revolvers, ordering them to surrender. The mill was in good working order, the ladle, full of melted metal, being on the fire in one place, while in another lay freshly-filled molds. Not far away was a stack of freshly-coined kalf dollars, dimes and nickles. Reynolds had just emptied one mold, holding it in this hand as the police astonished him by their presence. Said ho, gaspingly, “Well, great heavens! Who put you on to this?” “We heard you at work,” replied Patrolman Schwab; “besides, we saw you through the window filling one of the molds.” “I give up,” remarked Reynolds, laying down the mold he had in his hand. “It is no use to kick when one is caught dead to rights iu this Way. There is the stuff; it is ypurs.” Both he andhis partner, whoso name is withheld from the public at present at the request of the police, because he was instrumental in leading them to the successful capture, were taken to the stationhouse and charged with manufacturing counterfeit money. Mrs. Mary Reynolds, the wife of Isaac, was arrested, but there is some doubt as to her connection with the illegal work, and it is very probable she will be released. Reynolds is an old offender. He has served two years in the penitentiary at Michigan City for a similar offense, while living at Glen Valley about five years ago. He Is a carpenter by trade, a good talker, ready in reply and somewhat versed in the ways of detectives. He jwemed to regret that the arrest was macle by ?)licemen and not by United States officials. o questions asked by a Journal reporter he gave prompt responses. “Who was working with you?” he was asked. “No one but myself and partner. I think he gave the scheme away. lam certain of it A sentence of about two years I expect now, but if the police don’t want to arrest me for murder after 1 serve my time, the court had better give me a twenty-five years’ sentence. I’ll kill him anre when I get out.” “You seem to have a lot of candor about you?’, “What’s the use to deny it I am caught and that with the stuff and means to manufacture it about me. I don’t care, though. If they will let my wife go I will be satisfied to do my time for it She knew nothing about the work. Hadno connetion with it” “Are you a seller or shover of the queer.” “Neither. I did not get a chance. To-night was the first time we worked the molds. It is a pity all that good coin should go to waste. They came out handsomely and will make, after finishing, about the best stuff I ever saw.” “Did you ever manufacture it before?” “No. Did not know anything about the work until a few days ago. When I was convicted, some years ago, it was for passing a twenty-five-cent piece. A man down in Glen Valley tried to sell me some money, and wanted to instruct me how to make it, but I refused. He is in Idaho now. He left a lot of the money about the house, and I thought I would pass a piece of it. I think now it was a set up job between him and the United States detective to get me in trouble and divide the reward they would gain for arresting and convicting me. By the way, where is Rathbone?” “About Washington, I think. Did you know him?” “Yes; he is a slick citizen. He is a first-rate detective, but I have been too sharp for him.” “If you are a novice in counterfeitiug how is !t the United States detectives pay you particular attention?” “Well, I don’t know. Perhaps they think I am easy to work, ” “What outside parties are with yon?” “None, I tell you. I have been going on my own hook.” “Where did you get your molds and instructions about how to make the stuff?" “I sent $4 to Harrison & Cos., Newark, N. J., for the molds and directions. They wrote to me, stating that they knew I was square and all that, and wanted me to take their goods. I got the molds on Friday.” “You have not made much money, then?” “No. I did not make the counterfeit to pass or sell. Love or money could not get it from me. I wanted to have about $1,500 worth about me so I could think myself rich. Just as the miser hides hi3 money under a rock and looks at it now and then, so I wanted to do with this stuff 1 made. It is a great pity my scheme was broken up.” Thus Reynolds went on, but always evading adroitly any questions as to the connection of others with him. He had half-dollar, dime and nickel moulds, and twelve of the first, ten of the second, and about the same of the latter, freshly coined, wore captured. He is about thirty-five years of age, and takes his ill success as one of the risks of his practice. About 12 o’clock last night Superintendent Lang and Sergeant Quigley arrested Edward Carskegon, an employe of the Indiana Paper Company, at his home on South Meridian street, as a confederate of Reynolds. Carskegon had a battery for finishing the coin. This was seized, together with a lot of the “queer.” A Dangerous and Vicious Man. Judge Norton says that he has been importuned many times to sign the petition asking for the pardon of Gottlieb Wachstetter, the saloonkeeper now serving a sentence of five years in the northern penitentiary for complicity in the robbery of Sheriff Wilhite, of Montgomery county; but he says that under no condition would he recommend the prisoner’s pardon, because he regards Wachstetter as a dangerous and vicious man. Tax Duplicate for 1885. The duplicate for this year, as far as city property is ccm . rv and has been completed by Deputy Auditc* alker. It shows value of lots, $23,518,305; improvements, $17,770,750; personal, $12,822,795; grand total, $54,111,850; polls, 16,386. Last veai’s city duplicate was: Value of lots, $23,550,480; improvements, $17,160,790; personal, $14,267,111; grand total, $54,984,381; polls, 15,941. The decrease this year in returns of personalty is accounted for by ttao Citizens’ National Bauk|going out of business, and by deductions on the First National Bank returns.

amount to $1,179,950, compared with $1,732,032 last year. For State and county tax inside the city the rate of taxation for 1885 is 72 cents, and will produce $426,553.34. In 1884 it was 88 cents and produced $520,689,54. The decrease this year in personal valuation is $1,444,316. ONE OP THE FINEST. Officer Meek Gives Another Exhibition of His Brutality. Officer Meek is under $4,000 bond to await the action of the grand jury for shooting John Walsh. There is sufficient evidence to raise a doubt as to the justifiableness of the act. In the meantime he is suspended from the police force. Monday last Colonel Johnson engaged him to attend the transfer car during the week and to assist in managing the transfer of passengers. Superintendent of Police Lang instructed Meek not to perform this service in uniform. Wednesday night he was seen at the car in full policeman's dress, But this is of small importance compared with the assumption of brutal authority he exercised in one instance, and perhaps more, for the returns are not all in. One would think this man Meek, in danger of indictment for murder, leniently dealt with by the Board of Police Commissioners when charges of drunkenness had, on two occasions, been preferred against him, and frequently criticised by his brother officers for innumerable acts of folly, had enough experience to teach him decency. Thursday evening, about a quarter to 6 o’clock, in the driving rain, a lady and two children got off a Massashusetts-avenue car to change to an Illinois-street car. The crowd on the transfer was great, and Meek, with extreme roughness, tried to push her and her children inside, saying, “Good God, why don’t you get on?” “I am doing the best I can,” replied the lady. “One of my children is being crushed to death." “If I can get off the lady can have my place,” said a gentleman. With his natural instinct uppermost, Meek fiercely caught the lady by the shoulder, and angrily uttering a broad oath, said: “If you won’t get on get off.” He then threw her and her children from the car, the lady falling to the ground and narrowly escaping being run over by a car. This incident of brutality needs no comment. A NOTABLE REUNION. The Meeting To-Morrow of the Surviving Members of the Constitutional Convention. The reunion tomorrow of the surviving members of the convention which drafted the present State Constitution, to bo followed on Tuesday by a reunion of the members of the Indiana General Assembly prior to 1853, will be a notable historical event, which will not only be of interest to the persons concerned, but also to the public generally. The meeting will be held in English’s Opera-house, and will be called to order in the afternoon by George Whitfield Carr, who was president of the constitutional convention, and the secretary will be Wm. H. English, who held the principal position in that capacity in the convention. The address of welcome will be delivered by Governor Gray, and addresses will also be delivered in the evening by Vice-president Hendricks, William H. English, Gen. William McKee Dunn, Gen. Alvin P. Hovey, and Judge Horace P. Biddle. The subject of Vice-president Hendricks’s address will be “The Constitution and its Amendments,” and Mr. English will speak on “Tne Personnel of the Constitutional Convention of 1850.” On Tuesday evening the speakers will be William S. Holman, Richard W. Thompson, R. N. Hudson. Judge William E. Niblack and others. Nearly all the gentlemen named made their debut in public life as members of the constitutional convention or the Legislature preceding it. Among the more remarkable documents which will be read is a letter from Abraham Lincoln to a member of the convention, and a posthumous paper by Hon. John I. Morrison giving an account of the work of the committee on education. The addresses and papers will be interspersed with music. The meetings will be open to the public, and all are invited. The speaking will begin promptly at 7:30 o’clock. PERSONAL MENTION. Mr. and Mrs. James N. Church, of Knightstown, are in the city. Mr. A. J. Halford and family have returned from a month’s visit in the East. Rev. L. A. Belt, of Delaware, 0., is visiting his sister, Mrs. Frank Blanchard. Lieut. E. Calkins, of Rochester, Ind., spent Tuesday and Wednesday in this city. Mr. Will Streight, of Memphis, Tenn., is in Indianapolis, his old home, for a few week’s rest. Paul Hendricks arrived in the city this morning from Chicago and will spend Sunday with his mother and sister. Judge Gresham is visiting his numerous friends in Indianapolis and, in company with his family, is at the Denison House. Will Hord, son of the Attorney-general, has been complaining for some days with a severe attack of rheumatism, but is getting better. Senator Lindley was here on Thursday and Friday of last week, on business. His genial nature made him a great favorite among his colleagues in the Senate. Col. E. D. Taylor, of Illinois, and Dr. James Ritchie, of Johnson county, are in the city to attend the convention of the survivors of the constitutional convention. Colonel Taylor was a member from LaPorte county. Rev. P. S. Henson, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Chicago, will deliver a lecture at the First Baptist Church, of this city, on Wednesday, Oct. 7, at 7:30 p. m., for the benefit of the South-street Baptist Church. The Louisville Courier-Journal has the following to say about Walter Rogers, the Indianapolis cornetist: “Rogers, of Cappa’s band, can kiss the small end of a cornet gentler, and make it whisper sweeter than any man we ever saw', and, unlike most men who ‘blow their horns,’he is very modest and wears his wreath of reputation with becoming pride and grace.” Clever Detective Work. Yesterday morning, in the mayor’s court, Henry Schultz, a colored man, was examined on the charge of grand larceny and held to await action of the grand jury. His arrest was the result of neat detective work on the part of one of the colored metropolitans, Officer Ben Thornton. Some days ago Michael Brodin moved into a house at the corner of Tennessee and Twelfth streets. That evening many articles, such as wine-glasses, goblets, napkins and napkin-rings, were missing from the household effects. Their value was about S4O. Officer Thornton was instructed to investigate the case. In an alley in the rear of the Brodin residence he found a napkin stained with paint. In a house two doors away painting had been done the day the articles were missed. After finding that the paint in the house and on the napkin was exactly alike he ascertained the painter’s name. It was Shultz. Going to Shultz’s house on the South Side, Thornton was told by the suspected person’s mother-in-law that a part of the roods he wanted were in the house. He took them with him, and a short time afterward arrested Shultz on Illinois street, near the Grand Hotel.

STATESMAN SIM’S SURPRISE PARTY. The Police Raid nis Poker-Room While He Is Loafing in the Station-House Kitchen. Statesman Simeon Coy, who manages largely the interests of Cottrell’s candidacy for mayor, and is supposed to carry the Indianapoli3 Democratic party in his pocket, is about the station-house a good deal. Ho has a habit of dropping in there every evening to consult on saving the country. When he has any other patriot with whom he wishes to talk privately he leads him to the abandoned kitchen of the station-house, occupied by Sim’s stanch friend, Buck Farrel, at odd times, for afternoon meditations among pots and pans. Last night Simeon had a long and special conference with a constituent in that room. Sergeant ’Travis was i* the turnkey’s office, seemingly having nothing to disturb his promise of a quiet Sunday. The Sergeant, as if to stretch his legs, walked out on Alabama street, when at On that street up to Washington he met Patrolmen Bruce, Conklin, Schwab, Joyce and Clark. The party walked around the corner of Washington street in force, and halted near Stuckey’s Club House, of which Sim Coy is proprietor. Sergeant Travis sent one or tw o men around to the alleyway, and, with the others, walked up stairs, where a poker ga me was in full progress. The Sergeant gave th e proper signal, when from the inside came, “Who is there?” “What is the matter with you,” replied Travis, in a hoarse voice. At this the door opened and in walked the officers, capturing six players, tables and outfit. - At the station-house the prisoners were drawn up before Turnkey Clarke for proper registry. The last name had gone on the slate before Sim Coy stepped out of his consulta-tion-room. With a glance he recognized the party. He stared fixedly at each one, astonishment holding him speechless until a friend asked, “What do you think of it, Sim?” “I don't know anything about it,” and hastily departed. The prisoners charged with gambling were Ed Rickets. Ben Swain, Ashby Jonhson, John Williams, John Eagan and John Miller. CLOSE OF THE STATE FAIR, The Receipts and the Number of Visitors to the City During the Week. There were very few visitors to the fair grounds yesterday, and the dismal weather, together with the general disorder, caused by the preparation of the exhibits for removal, gave the place a decidedly cheerless appearance. The track was too heavy for racing and the free-for-all trot was not finished, the first and second money being divided between “Grafton” and “Dutch Girl,” each having won two heats. The management early in the morning decided to give up the idea of endeavoring to make the fair a succes on Saturday, owing to the very unfavorable weather, and the exhibiters were notified that they would not be required to keep their displays on the grounds until evening, as was at first ordered. It was, in consequence, simply “tearing up” day, as in previous years. In spite of the bad weather during nearly the whole of the week, the fair has been successful financially. The receipts on the diferent days were: On Monday, $298.45; Tuesday, $1,263.25; Wednesday, $2,474.25; Thursday, $9,522.20; Friday, $7,081.25; from railroad coupons, $1,472; making a total of $22,169.10. The proceeds from the sales of privileges and amphitheater tickets is not included in these figures, and it will probably swell the amount $2,000 or $3,000. The expenses of the fair will aggregate between $15,000 and $17,000.- Last year the total receipts were $24,429.40. The record of passenger business over the different lines indicates that the number of visitors to the city during the week was about 60,000. From Monday until noon yesterday 2.098 passenger cars were brought into the Union Depot, and 2,061 were taken out. THE CHURCHES TO-DAY. Rev. L. A. Belt, of Delaware. 0., will preach at Roberts Park M. E. Church this morning. Rev. A. Dunn will preach at the Fourth Presbyterian Church this morning; no evening servce. The pastor of the First English Lutheran Church, Rev. John Baltzly, will preach morning and evening. “The Measure of a Man” will be Rev. O. C. McCulloch’s morning topic, and “Young Men and the Churches” his evening topic. Rev. E. J. Gantz’s morning subject, at the Central Christian Church, will be “Wisdom and Folly;” evening subject, “Certain Men.” Charles Stver will lecture to the Univorsalist Society at True Friends’ Hall, When Block, this morning, on his travels in the Holy land. Rev. N. C. Dill, of Richland, will preach at the United Presbyterian Church, corner Massachusetts avenue and East streets, morning and evening. Rev. John Alabaster’s morning subject at Me-ridian-street M. E. Church will be “Stephen a Model for Believers;” evening subject, “Palissy, the Huguenot.” New Orleans Exposition. Our State fair afforded the commissioners for Now Orleans a rare opportunity to secure many valuable articles for their various departments, especially art and woman’s work. Miss Mary Dean and Mrs. John M. Judah, the energetic commissioners of this department, were among the exhibiters every day collecting, and the extent of their work may be judged by that of one day, when, beside the exhibiters they met here, they had twenty-eight letters written to ladies who were not here, and whose goods were placed by Mrs. Noe, and desirable for Indiana’s exhibit in New Orleans. The educational exhibit, occupying the three alcove rooms on second floor, made by State Superintendent J. W. Holcombe, that attracted universal attention, will go as a whole, with considerable additions, to New Orleans in Indiana's e xhibit, under the direction and supervision of Mr. Holcombe. Mr. T. A. Lloyd secured quite a number of dairy exhibits Jpom butter and cheese-makers of the State that he had not before been able to 6ee. On the whole, the Indiana State fair bids fair to transport many of its best collections to its State exhibit at New Orleans for this winter. Foreclosure Suit. The trustees of Hanover College yesterday brought suit against John Greene, Barbara, his wife, and 150 other persons and corporations to foreclose a mortgage on a lot of real estate in Beaty’s commissioner’s subdivision. The mortgage was given to secure a SI,OOO note executed by Greene to the trustees. The transaction occurred the 24th of October, 1877. A Sentence of Two Years. About 9 o’clock last night the jury in the Criminal Court in the trial of Alvin O. Royse, for highway robbery, returned a verdict of guilty, fixing his punishment at two years in the penitentiary. Singular Cause for Desertion. The marriage of George W. and Artemasia Campbell took place in St. Louis, Mo., on the 22d of June, 1878. They lived together four years, and in the meantime the husband lost both arms and became helpless for life, from injuries inflicted in a railroad accident. Yesterday Campbell filed his complaint for divorce, alleg-

ine that his wife abandoned him in May, 1883, and has since refused to have anything to do with him. He charges that her sole reason for abandonment is his helpless condition, and that she says she will never live with him again, as she prefers to be with her relatives.

THE CITY IN BRIEF. There were thirty seven deaths in the city during the week. Scarlatina is again increasing, the majority of the cases being fatal. Marriage licenses were issued yesterday to Frank Dietz and Louisa B. Mueller, Henry M. Gerlach and Anna Richcreok, William Sirp and Anna Strichmeyer. Lafayette Lovewell, brought here from Johnson county, on a charge of grand larceny, for stealing a horse’and buggy, pleaded guilty before Judge Norton yesterday, and was sentenced to the penitentiary for three years. The issue of building permits last week did not exceed $7,375. Each was under a thousand dollars, except one yesterday to Salisbury & Stanley, for a two-story frame dwelling on Broadway, between Lincoln avenue and Seventh street, to cost $2,000. The German Baptist Conference. The German Baptist Conference yesterday discussed the topic of home missionary work. At Castle Garden, N. Y., a special missiofi is established, and is under the charge of Rev. Mr. Schlick. It was doubted whether the church would be able in the future to continue the employment of this minister, but special efforts will be made to continue his salary. The chairman of the home mission committee. Rev. L. H. Donner, of Cincinnati, prestnted his annual report. During the past year $2,800 was appropriated for home missions, but this sum was expended in supporting fifteen new churches. A special committee was appointed to devise means for raising money to sustain this work. The following missionary committee was elected to serve one year: Revs. J. C. Haselpuhn, Cleveland; L. H. Donner, Cincinnati; A. Franschel, Dayton; J. Meirer, Chicago. and E. Albert, Peoria. Rev. Mr. Wilkins, of Chicago, in the evening preached the regular sermon. To-day Rev. E. C. Haselpuhn will preach in the morning, and Rev. E. Graalman at night. A double quartet;, composed of the visiting ministers, will lead in the singing at all the services. See King & Elder’s windows.
