from Moline was brought before Justice
Cropper this morning and fined $50 under
the vagrant act but as he seemed pleased
with the prospect of being sent to jail it
was thought it would punish him more to
send him back to Moline and let him shift
for himself, rather than 10 let him become
a charge to the county. The sentence was
therefore suspended, and he was allowed
10 depart with the understanding that he
must leave the city, and if arrested again
the sentence would be strictly enforced

New YORK, April 20. -Commissioner Dun
can has succeeded in exciting the opposition Of
the sailor boarding houses to such an extent as
almost to parayze the commerce of this port
Vessels with valuable cargoes on board have
been detained more than week and have no
prospect Of getting crews. The Commissioner
has telegraphed to the Commissioners 10 Phil

men by railroad. but the boarding. house keep
ers there declined to furnish men; hence none
came.

relied with his wife yesterday, and she called
upon workman named Peter Ritter to take
him away, and in the struggle That followed
Hessck was stabbed fatally. Ritter was ar
rested.
1t is thought from all the facts related in con-
nection with the Richmond switch disaster
that there were some half dozen people lost
whose bodies are not represented by even a
single fragment. Either the intense fire con-
sumed them or they are in the water near the
scene of the disaster.
