W'ANMiNinoN April IS. There is
little doubt that the scheme for dis-
tributing United States postage stamps
at rates below their face value which
bus its headquarters ut Hamilton Out.
Is a part of one of tho greatest enter-
prises of its kind that has been un-
earthed of lute years. The otllcials of
the treasury secret service who are on
the scene will work upon the case
until they have discovered if possible
where the work of counterfeiting is
carried on and have the principals in
the plot apprehended.
The report that the stamps which
have been sold were a part of those
which were printed by tho bureau of
printing and engraving when it Hrst
undertook tho work and which woie
rejected by tho post otllco department
proves to be erront oils. Close exam-
ination of the stamps which were dis-
posed of in Chicago shows that they
are counterfeits printed on good pa-
per but paper of an inferior qualit3' to
that used by tho bureau and that the
ink Is puler than the government
brand. It Is said that the bureau's re-
jected stamps were destroyed.

Stales .supreme court Is engaged in
hearing arguments In the suit of the
state of New York vs. the United
Sates for $131187 Interest on money
advanced by the state in equipping
troops sent to tho war In 1SI11. Tho
original sum amounted to $.'10001)00
u part of which. SI 330000 was raised
as a public state loan while the re-
mainder was borrowed from the state
canal fund. The national government
refunded the principal but refused to
recoup tho state for the Interest p:i!4
by It on the borrowed money. The
claim was submitted to tho court
of claims which allowed tho
part of It based on tho intnrost
paid on the money raised on the
public bonds amounting to StU320
but declined to allow the remainder
g:t!i.Sit7 paid on the canal fund. This
decision was alike unsatisfactory to
the state and to tho federal govern-
ment and both appealed to the su-
preme court. Senator Hill argued the
case for New York and Assistant-General
Whitney for the United States.
