Work OF MIsCREANTs.-Eforts it is
said have been made yesterday to wreck
the freight train that is made up at the
Baltimore and Ohio slip a. the east end
of the: tunnel by tampering with
the switch at that point. 1t is
claimed that coupling-pins, spikes, &C.,
have been placed in the frog for the
purpose of derailing the train. Yester-
day a car loaded with paper, which
had been left standing on the
sidetrack. was set on fire by
some person and had it not
been for neighbors the Car, with its
contents, would have been destroyed.
A day or two ago a new lock was
placed Oh the switch, only to be taken
of some time in the night. The switch
is generally misplaced about q. NJ,
after the empty engine passes over it
going toward the wharf. Detective
Greer, of the Southern Railway, came
here to. day to investigate the matter,
and he finally arrested a colored boy,
nine years old, named Sonny Marshall.
The boy acknowledged that he loosen.
ed the brakes OF cars and placed the
coupling pin in the frog. The Mayor
sent him to the work house for ten
days on account of his youth.
