TO STOP SHANGHAIING.
Intention of Authorities to Prosecute
Offending Dredgers.

1t is reported that the oyster dredging
shipping agent has transferred the scene Of
his operations from Baltimore to Richmand,
and the Virginia state and United States
authorities there are going after the dredg-
ers to put stop to the alleged shanghaiing
that has. been going on for the past two
months.
1t is stated that letters have been received
by the Virginia authorities from men GARD
dredging boats operating in the Potomac
and on Chesapeake bay and it's tributaries,
stating that they had been taken aboard
boats while drugged, and were being in
humanity treated. They are forced to work
from sunrise to late in the night, according
to the reports, and are ill-fed, and on the
Slightest provocation are beaten over the
head with marlinspike anything that
is handy. United States Marshal Morgan
Treat has taken the matter in hand, and 1t
is said that warrants have been issued for
several of the offending shippers.
The Treasury Department will be asked to
detail the revenue cutter Apache to round
up and arrest the men for whom warrants
have been issued
The method said to be pursued in Rich
mond is very similar to that formerly used
in Baltimore. The victim is invited to take
a drink. which is drugged. When he comes
to his senses he is aboard an oyster dredg-
ing vessel out on Chesapeake bay, and is
forced to work In spite of his protests It
is expected that arrests will be made with
in few days.

JAMES N. DEAN SENT TO ST.
ELIZABETH.

81 jumped overheard to drown myself,
was what James NJ. Dean, an optician.
whose place of business is at 1OS 18TH
street, stated to his brother Tuesday night
upon his return home after unexplained
absence since Monday morning
But he added. "a man Is not going to
drown when he can save himself"
Last night Dean attempted suicide upon
three occasions while he was being held at
the first precinct police station in cell.
The attempts were made by --sting his
head against the wall of the cell. He was
given surgical treatment. Later he was adj
judged insane and was sent to st. Eliza
beth Hospital for the Insane. Today his
brothers, w. E. and Edgar s. Dean, called
upon Sanitary Officer Sroufe and made afr
davit to the statement relating to the men
tai condition of their brother. They said
they thought the mind of the optician had
been impaired by sickness, confinement IN
his store and matrimonial troubles.
Dean, who is thirty-three years Of age,
came to this city from near Dumfries.
Prince William county, Va, about sixteen
years ago. In June last. about six months
after their marriage. his wife entered suit
against him for divorce, alleging cruel
trea tment. She also asked the court to
direct the payment of alimony, and her re-
quest was granted, the court directing the
payment of $50 month Later this was
TGuuCcQ 10 30. Inc action Oh HIS VIE anu
the publicity he had gained through her
entering the suit against him was the
source of much annoyance to him.
His conduct Sunday caused some Of his
relatives to fear that his mind was unbal-
anced. Monday morning he disappeared
from his store and his brothers went in
search of him. one going to Baltimore.
Tuesday night the missing man returned
home and yesterday morning he was at his
place OF business as il nothing had occurred.
He expressed the fear. however that enc
mics were after him, and that they wanted
to hang him.
Several customers called at his store early
in the afternoon yesterday and their pres
encs there seemed to alarm him. Dean
went out the back way. mounted his bicycle
and rode off. He returned home shortly at
ter dark and his brothers called upon the
police and had him locked up. When he
reached the station it was found that there
was no place to put him other than in a
cell with other prisoners. Dean was ac-
cordingiy placed in of the cells and
one of his brothers was permitted to re-
main there with him, the latter thinking his
presence would have a quieting effect upon
the patient
Despite the presence of the brother, how
ever, Dean succeeded in injuring himself
and it was necessary for him to be taken to
the Emergency Hospital for treatment. At
ter he was returned to the station from the
hospital he was examined by Police Sur
geons Wall and Barry and they determined
that he was a ft subject for treatment in
the asylum. Upon their recommendation he
was sent to st. Elizabeth.
