$250,000 In counterfeit' money nnd
two plates designed for tho manu
facture of tho bills. Tho opera
tions huvo been In progrosa for ap
proximately two years, and began,
apparently, inning porsons engaged
In the opium traffic. .
The authorities said that the
smuggling of opium Into the terri
tory we, re victims' of a grim little
Jokei aud . "the doublo-crosalng su
preme" In return for the opium
they managed to bring Into the ter
ritory they received largo sums of

Is known that largo amounts have
been tnkon lo tho Orient for dis

herd wore passed on Orient shop
keepers. The authorities said tho conspir

not moro than one man knows all

Is a Japanese master engraver, now
In custody, who was employed on a

The present legal complication
la the outcome of the action of the

company on tho ground that It did
not meet with tpocitclatlons. Testi

purporting to ahow defects In tho

basis ot tho city's action.
Tho Bend company olalma-that
tho concrete pipe Is up to specif I

its contention. Although invited to
