Counterfeiter! Captured.

St. Joseph, Mo., Sept. 12.—Deputy United States Marshals Smith and Miller yesterday captured the leaders of a dangerous gang of counterfeiters. The men under arrest are Ransome Smith, an old offender, who has served a term in prison for the crime, and Henry J. Green, a well-to-do farmer living three miles east of this city, ou whose place the counterfeiting was done. Their work was clever, and during the past six months thousands of dollars of the spurious coin have been passed,in this city and adjoining points. Officers are after five other members of the gang.
