FurthexOf the Bank of England
ta g.dr Frauds.
LONDON, March 1S-Three shabbily
dressed men, believed to be Americans,
were arrested in Cork this morning while
endeaVoring to deposit twelve thousand
dollars in bank. They are supposed to be
the parties who recently committed the
frauds on the Bank of England.
NEW YORK, March 18.-The London
Telegraph Of the 9th has the following adj
ditional particulars Of the frauds on the
Bank of England:
So far as yet known the firms whose sig
natures have been forged are the following!
Messrs. Rosthchild, Barring Bros. q Co.,
Brown, Shipley & Co., Suse & Slibeth, B.
& w. BeydensteiD, j. II. Shredder & Co.,
j. & G. Imthurs, the German Bank of
London, the London and Westminster
Bank, the Union Bank and the Bank of
Belgium and Holland.
OF the proceeds realized about 100000
was invested in United States bonds, all of
which were purchased from Jay Cooke,
McCulloch s. Co. The person who passed
himself off as Warren's clerk was arrested
in the Office of the Continental bank on
Saturday morning while on his way to Jay
Cooke, McCulloch & Co.'s for a packet of
bonds to the value of 100000, the cheque
for which had been duly paid by the Bank
of England the previous day. OF course
the firm in question knew nothing of the
bills, and the fraudulent nature of the
transactions was then for the first time
ascertained. The bonds which have been
advertised are payable to bearer and are
those of which Warren himself has OBJ
tanned possession.

MIR ROBERT S. KINDRICK, Postmaster
at Chattanooga, has hard time keeping
his official head in its proper place. A
few months ago the announcement was
Gsshed from Washington that Grant had
appointed Sow. Bard to take bis place. He
and his friends went to work and got that
appointment set aside. A few days ago
Kindrick was startled by the announcement
that Mr.. A. G. Sharpe had been appointed
by Grant, and now confirmed by the SEN
ate; and now the telegraph brings intelli-
gence that all this has been undone and
Grant has reappointed Kindrick. So Kin
drick is Postmaster until somebody gets
Grants ear again.

not strong enough to prevent the MOB from
at least partly carrying out their designs.

from Moberiy to-day under a guard of po-
lice and comparative order prevails at that
point. The engines ditched there yester-

ditehed but nobody hurt. Grand Chief
Engineer Wilson of the Locomotive
rosherhood1 will arrive here tonight when
a compromise is expected to be made.

three hours, however, so trains could pass.
Quite number of strikers were arrested
at Moberly to day, and several were arrested
yesterday at Lexington Junction and placed
in the Richmond jail. Another engine was
ditched at st. Charles tonight. The rail
road company has offered an aggregate of
$500 reward for the arrest and conviction

gines at Moberly, cutting the telegraph
wire at Montgomery, burning the bridge
near St. Charles and doing other damage
at different points on the road. Grand
