The fragment of money which come to the treiinry are turned over to one of the expert and aorted out under the iniicroHco'w for identification. They are picked apurt, and each tiny piece i a niKtie'l to it place like a part of a pm tie Thi i imially done on Klas-s. aud the fratjiiienUi are eventually juit be tween pico-s of k'um to hold them to gether while they are iiieiiHtired to wo whither there i two iifth or three fifth of the note identifiable, or wl ether it im little that tho owner can recover nothing.

It happened that the tn aHury bad redeemed the other halve of thetie note jiJMt two and a half year before for a money broker on the Uowery, in New York, and. thinking thu caco hum picion. had kept Bn eye ont for the posnibility of attempted fraud. The Kana man wa a person of good bui new Htanding. and hi banker threat ened the treasury ofllcialH with diMmiHHiil if they qncntioned hi affidavit. They put the cane in the hand of tho depart ment of juHtice. and eventually tho man pleaded guilty and wa fined $1. 000. A bank in Alabama received from a depoHitor a fragment of a $10 bill, and the treaHury people paid $ for it. Later came a claim accompanied by the other part of the bill, a little cimrrcd, with an affidavit Baying the Hcndcr had burned the remainder of tho note by ni in take. . A Chicago man Bent In fragments of two 20 bill and one $10 bill with an affidavit telling how tho other halve bad been dcHtroyod, aud in the mime mail the other halves of tliene notes came in from a Chicago bunk.
