IMPORTANT ARREST.


The New York World of this morning says:-
Detective Barker, of the Fifteenth Precinct
Police, arrived in this city yesterday afternoon,
having in custody Moses E. Ludington, whom
he had arrested in Chicago, on charges of fraud.
1t Is alleged that some months ago Ludington
came to this city, aud by means OF his respect
able and good business tact succeeded in obtain
ing from wholesale merchants in this city over
$4,000 worth of goods of various descriptions,
and which were by his order shipped to his
address in Chicago. Ludington had obtained
from Hull, InglesoL d Co., of No. 50 Walker
street, $4,000 worth Of goods, and the firm
received information that Ludington was en-
gagged in somewhat peculiar transactions. 1t
appears that the goods were received at his
store in Chicago at the front door, and during
the night removed by The rear door TO an auction
store, where they were sold at a ruinous sacri-
fee. Not relishlug these vagaries, the firm OF
Hull Ingleson Co., made complaint OF fraud
against Budington. reqnisition was obtained
from Governor Fenton, OF this State, on Gov
ernor 0glesby, OF Illinois, asking for the arrest
and rendition of the accused. Armed with this
document Detective Barker proceeded to CHI
arrested LudiDgton. The latter claimed TO be
under arrest by the United States Marshal
under the Bankruptcy act, but as the detec-
tive found him free of all restraint he took
charge of him. He dlsclaimed all intention
of desiring to defraud his creditors, but stated
that he had lost all his money playing poker
During the trip from Chicago Dudington made a
desperate attempt to escape from his captor.
When the train was nearing Toledo, Ohio,
going at the rate of thirty miles per hour, the
prisoner professed to desire to enter the private
room OF the car and the detective permitted hlm
to do so, but as u precautionary measure sta
toned himself on the rear platform OF the car.
he had not been there many minutes, when ne
perceived Ludington srowding through the win
dow with the evident intent of jumping from
the train. Barker at once drew his revolver,
and threatened to shoot him, whereupou the
prisoner drew In his head and accepted the
situation. -

the telegraph line from Punta Arenas, on the
Pacific, to the capital, at once.
As all the material for the work is already on
the spot 1t is estimated that the line will be
finished by the 1st of next November. As soon
as the Cuba cable will connect with Aspinwall,
the Government will continue the line to the
Atlantic eide, and connect with the cable, so
that this republic will be in direct communica-
tion with the world. The new telegraph line
from Amatitlan to the city of Guatemala is now
in perfect working order.
The treaty concluded between the Nicaraguan
Government and the United States on the 2lst
of June, has been ratified by the Congress
OF the former Government, AMI is now the law
OF the land.
Quiet prevails throughout the Central Aueri-
can States.

UTICA, N. Y, Aug. 13.-The State Democratic
Central Committee and chairmen of the various
county committees will meet at the Butterheld
House tomorrow.
The chairmen OF the various county commit
tees are also to assemble for the purpose of con-
sulting and perfecting their local organizations
The State Committee will decide upon the time
and place for holding the next State Convention.
The attendance OF the Democratic representa-
tive men is large. All sections OF the State are
represented. New York city is represented mere
in good force, and deeply interested In the sub
ject of the nomination for Governor. While
Gweede, Sweeney, Fields, and others declare
that New York will send up united delegation
for Hoffman, Supervisor Fox and others are
favoring Henry G. Murphy.
The feeling here is unmlstakably for Hoffman,
who, 1t is agreed, is not only the strongest man,
but most entitled to the nomination. There are
outside influences in his favor, prominent among
which is an appeal of the Germans in his behalf
who say his nomination will strengthen the
The State Convention will be held on the 81
or 10th of September, and will probably be
called in Albany, though Syracuse, through
General Green, AGAIN asks for 1t. The assembled
politicians are in lively consultation this even
ing, and the Butterfeld Hotel presents an ami
mated scene. There is much enthusiasm and
confidence and the campaign is evidently TO be
fought with Vigor and determination. Many
have embraced the occasion to pay their respects
to Governor Seymour, who is in excellent
heath and spirits, and who has received his
political friends both at his headquarters the
Butterheld House, and at his farm at Deerdeld,

II appears from the papers that Louisa often suf.

others, as Mrs. Hasler. and this during the time
when every person connected with the family,
and all the friends OF the saine, knew that the
proper Mrs.. Hseler was in the lunatic ass um.
The traverse to the writ having been entered,
the petitioner answered by denying each aud
every allegation. The Judge said there was
distinct issue of the fact, which must he tried

reference, whereupon the Judge sald:-"No,
there can be no reference in cases of this kind;
this issue must be heard in open court"

Troops had been sent to Nassau on the island
of New Providence. The Telegraph bill had
passed, and the laying of the cable will be i'm
mediately undertaken. Tonnage is wanted at
Kingston. Spices are rotting in the warehouses
owing 10 low prices. The British gunboat Mul.
let will probably go to Puerto Cabello, in Vene-
Zuela, and the Phoebe to Port-au-Pripce. Three
vessels had arrived at Kingston in ballast from
Haytien ports. They found it impossible to get
freight in the ports of departure. A French
gunboat had arrived at Kingston, with fifty
Haytien refugees aboard. They report that the
Cacos had taken La Riyiere.

HAVANA, Aug. 13.-Before the United States
steamer Penobscot left Port au Prince grand
banquet was given aboard at which General
Chevalier was entertained by the American
Minister, Hollister. The party afterwards visited
the Mole Nicholas, which is designated as the
rendezvous of the American naval vessels in
Haytien waters At this the English, French,
and Spanish Ministers are jealous and con-
denim the American Minister. They have
protested against the attempts which they
allege are made to annex part of the island to
the United States. Generals Lynch and Nor
MILL the Caco chiefs, had abandoned .Carrefour,
near the capital and President Salnave's troops
had reoccupied it. Soulouque's wife has
strongly espoused the cause of President Sal
nave. She is reported as having considerable
influence. The revolutionists seemed to be dis
satisfied with the meagre results of the war.
President salnaves popularity appeared to be
on the increase. The mountatneers are very
active.

Thursday, August 10. 1868.
The Money Market Las undergone no change,
the supply OF capital being largely in excess of
the demand and the sales of ''call Ioansu con-
tinue to rule from to 6 per cent. Trade Is lal-
proving, and the new crop of wheat is coming
forward freely. The South counts upon cotton
which is already taken. The army worm has
appeared in some remote sections of Alabama
and Texas, but not in sufficient force to create
much alarm. Indeed, it is no credit to the skill
OF experts that sCme method of destroy
ing these pests en- mdsse HIS not been
devised long ago. The gratifying sign visible in
Southern trade is that we are now receiving
large shipments OF wheat and other products
from that section instead of sending provisions
thither as was the case only last year. THIS in
dcates reviving strength and means. The negro
laborers, at the same time, are manlfesting less
confidence in the professions of disorganizing
agitators and are returning to old rules of thrift
and industry. This favorable reaction toward
work and reason brghtens the prospect on
every side.
