TROUBLE APPREHENDED IN WALL
STREET.

The N. Y. Sun says Wall street
was patroled Thursday by a larger
number Of detectives than was ever
before seen there at one time, except
just after the Gray forgeries, which
cost the street $4,000. Inquiries at
the police central office developed the
fact that the patrol had been ordered
by the Commissioners. A few days
ago John B. Norris and John T. Den
ney, Jr., the former on behalf of the
Stock Exchange, and the latter in the
name Of tho bankers and merchants
generally, called on President Matsell
and requested him to take additional
precautions for the protection of mon
ey interests. They said that in the
existing stagnation Of trade, vast num-
bers of men were out of employment
and ready for most any deed Of des-
peration. The Board of Commission
ers unanimously resolved that q corps
of detectives should be sent to patrol
Wall street and other districts where
banks are situated, with orders to
arrest all suspicious persons on sight.
