Fight Between Police Steamers and Dredgeboats.

Fight Between Police Steamers and Dredgeooats.
BALTIMORE, Md, Dec. PA special
from Easton, Md, says: A fierce battle took
place in Poplar Island Narrows Tuesday
night, between fleet of dredgeboats and
one of the oyster police steamers, probably
captain Grifith's boat, the Governor
Thomas. The steamer came into the mar
rows about II o'clock at night, found the
dredgers at work and attempted to arrest
them. They resisted, and opened fire ON
the steamer, which was returned at hrst
with small arms. A fierce fusilade was kept
up for some time The dredgers made it
hot for the steamer until her captain open
ed on them with his cannon. This silenced
their fire, and put them to flight. They
started off down the bay, hurried by the
steamer firing cannon shot at them, and
passed out of sight of the spectators on the
shore, many of whom had been aroused
from sleep by the noise of the battle. The
witnesses Of the fight from the shore could
not tell what damage was done to either
side, but the firing was so fast and furious,
and lasted so long that they think there
must have been some killed or wounded.
