A Turbulent saturday Night.
NUMEROUS Dis URBANoEs IN THE CENTRAL PAR
OF THE CITY.

NUMEROUS Dis URBANoEs IN THE CENTRAL PART
OFT oITY.
The long interval of quiet which the city has
enjoyed WAS broken on Saturday night, when
scenes of disorder and violence prevailed in
several parts of the city. For some unaccount-
able reason there was an unusual consumption
OF mean whiskey, which fired the passions while
it warmed the stomachs Of the drinkers. Thus
excited, it WAS no difficult task to create free
fight, and several OF them are reported. Strange
AZ 1t may seem the Southwestern and Eastern
parts of the city were peculiarly exempt from
these disturbances, which regned for the most
ON and near to Market street.
The first outbreak occurred among vast
crowd of colored people at or near 9th and Wal
nut. Two Of the officers Of the district to which
the locality belongs were sent out to quell the
free fight which was prevailing in every part OF
the street, and while they were gone on this err
rand another melee was opened in Wilhelm 9
saloon, Market street below 8th. This Chief
O'Tooe was called to quell, but before he could
get there the affair WAS ended and the assault
ing parties had fled. He afterwards captured
one Of the pugilists and locked him up in the
cells. Next an infraction of the peace.was made
inl Front street, and afterwards, IN King near
8rd, then at 9th and King, next at 9th and Or
ange and several minor ARRAYS occurred near to
the places above stated.
As the result Of these numerous fracases .
arrests were made, and charges OF drunkenness
and disorderly conduct being preferred against
the parties the usual fines were imposed. The
city has since been quiet 30 far as our own peo-
pie are concerned.

TRAITOR.
George Il. Warren, who resides near George
ville Indiana county, Pa, was in West Chester
on Saturday, and through him it may be posi-
BILE that the identity Of the murdered man found
In the dam at Mortonville may be discovered.
Mr. Warren has little daughter named Victor
Ia Blanche Warren and the HuppoBiton is that
this is the name written upon the card found ID
the murdered mans pocket. man named Will
liam L. Pike was for q long time known by and
visitor in Mr.. Warren's family, but for two
months past they have not seen or heard any
thing from him directly. An anonymous letter
was, however, received by Mrs Warren, three or
more weeks ago, informing her that Pike was
dead. The description given OF the murdered
man ia sufficient to induce Mr.. Warren and the
people OF his neighborhood to believe that the
stranger and Pike ara Identical. The letter writ
ten to Mrs Warren will be used as clue to
ferret ont the murderer, who is still unknown.
This Mortonville affair has revived the recol-
lection of similar undiscovered crimes in Chester
county in past years. Many years ago, but with
In the memory of many persons now living, old
Rachel Brownback was fOuly murdered in her
lonely dwelling in East Vincent, and to this day

night, in her own house, some twenty years
since, and no one has ever been brought to JUS

Correspondence Of the Commercial
MIDpLETowN, Del, Dec. IL.
One Of the most diabolic attempts to wreck
train of cars was made on Ssturdsy..night on the
Delaware r. R., about one and 8 half miles
above Middletown. Tho train duo here at 745
was coming down at her usual rate of speed and
when between Armstrong; and this town, the
engine struck a half dozen Of old cross-ties that
had been laid directly ACROSS the track. Samuel
Barnes, the engineer, reversed his engine, and
put on the cir brakes In amoment and when the
train stopped bar of railroad ironlwas discovered
lying across the track Just in front Of the en-
gine, showing that the malicious persons were
determined to throw the train from the track
by one of these two obstructions.
Nothing about the engine was broken, except
the pump, and it was continued on the trip. A
majority of the passengers we're not aware OF
the occurrence one gentleman from this town
did not even notice the sudden stopping Of the
train. walk to the scene did not disclose any
damage to the track, although the ties were
found broken very much.
The Del. II. r. Company, 1t is expected, will
offer reward for the arrest Of the party or par
ties who perpetrated this outrageous but for
tunately unsuccessful attempt at wholesale muir
der. People hereaboutH express no surprise at
the boldness OF the villains, as we consider that
the punishments of the law are altogether un-
certain Of infiction-in fact our experience ia
that the guilty go free. l..

ENFORCED HONESTY IN CHIoAao.-A gentleman
who has just returned to Wilmington from Chi
cago has left with us a ticket which has been
adopted by the City Passenger railways in that
CITY, to prevent "knocking down" by the con-
ductors. The ticket before. us is Of the West
Division Line. Ranged around II are numbers
from to 25 inclusive good for that number Of
rides. These tickets are sold at 10 cents each,
or less than three cents for each fare. The
conductor does not take them up at
all he simply punches them and gives
them back to the holder, each punching les
SEEMING the number Of rides and he does not
receive any money except for the tickets placed
in his charge, an account Of which is kept in the
office. Persons without tickets are charged five
cents each which amount is given to some will
ling passenger in the car and a hole made in his
ticket for the ride. The system is said to be
working admirably, and the reduction Of fares
has caused such an increase Of travel that add.
tional cars have been added to the lines, and
they are always full, our informant states. Un-
der this system the poor conductors are brought
to condition OF enforced honesty.
