Tracing Counterfeits and the Secret Service Chase
A Chicago Record-Herald account describes a counterfeiting case traced by government secret service experts. An initial suspect grocer in Cleveland passed a note through a chain ending with an invalid woman and a New Orleans brother, then a Pittsburg traveler, a traveling occultist, and finally a carpenter. Evidence showed the grocer was an agent of a larger counterfeit ring, with the bill cycling across the continent before returning to the grocer.
