This morning, in the Criminal Court, Judge Wylie, most all of the cases remaining out of the serles known as the “detective cases” were dis- posed of. S Mr. Worthington, the district attorney, said that certain of the detective cases had been set for trial to-day, and he had examined them, and found that several came within the ruling made by the court in the Metropolitan bank case as to what constl- tuted the crime of receiving stolen goods. “T have several times considered tat ruling,” said Judge Wylle, “and see no reason to change tl” “Then,” sald the district attorney, “In the cases set excepting one, charging George O. Miller and Chas. Gay with larceny, I will, with the leave of ‘the court. enter a nolle pros.” “That ts right, sir,” said Judge ‘The cases in which the nolle pros. was entered are those of George W. McElfresh, for receiving stolen property (tivo cases, watch, &c., from Wm. White;) George 0. Miller, receiving stolen property (watch of C, E. Colegate); Charles E. Fltnder, George W. McElfresh, George O. Miller and James A. McDevitt, do., (two cases, bonds, notes, «c., from the Nallonal Metropolitan Bank); George U. Miller, do.

Col. Hains, in bis monthly report to the chief of engineers, of the operations upon the improvement. of the Potomac river for the month of May, states that the amount of dredging and depfsiting in the flats during May was greater than for any previous, Month since the work began, the total amount dredged from the channel being about 180,000 cubic yards, sufficient to raise about 18 acres of the flats: above overflow. The total amount dredged and deposited under the contract with P. 8. Ross, to June Ist, 1s 1,170,758 cubic yards. The embankinent: along the Wine ‘ot the siope-wall_ has progressed rather slowly. The material is somewhat harder ‘than was anticipated, after a depth of six feet. It was. found that the embankment under Somers’ contract, along the line of the outer margin of the proposed fill, was washed considerably by the waves at high tide, and about 800 cubic yards of rip-rap was placed along a portion of it as @ protec- tion. ‘The filling near Easby’s point, under con- tract with Thos. P. Morgan, was completed May 29. ‘During June the work will be cOntinued under the contract with P. S. Ross; but as one section of the work will be completed in a few days, opera- tions will be confined to the section above Lone bridge. ‘The three dredges below. the bridge wiil ‘be laid up, as there is no work for them todo. The construction of the embankment along the marzin of the fill,and the deposit of rip-rap protection, will be continued. The work of removing rocks in Geol wn harbor will be continued. “F” group ‘will be completed during June, and work begun on group 'B, opposite the mill race in Georgetown har- Wylte. Battling With the Waves. A GRAPHIC ACCOUNT OF THE DEATH OF GEN. BABCOCK | AND HIS COMRADES. Col. R. B. Smith, of the light-house board, who | |was with Gen. Babcock when the latter was drowned in Mosquito Inlet, Florida, told the story of the disaster to a Charleston, S. C., reporter. He said the Pharos kept off Mosquito Inlet from Sat- ‘urday evening untfl Monday morning, as the cap- tain thought an entrance impracticable. “At 12 ‘o'clock, however,” said Col. Smith, “a large whale- Doat, manned by six sallors and a coxswain, came out and boarded the vessel. The eral, thinking that asthe boat came out so lly she could re- ‘turn with equal safety, d_his mind and de- cided to make the attempt. He, Luckey, Surer and myself got in with the seven seamen, making four landsmen and seven sailors in all who started. Of the four landsmen I alone lived to reach the shore. ‘The boat made headway enough until we passed the bar buoy. Then aroller struck us, which we weathered all right. On the crest of the second roller the steering oar snapped in two, and the | coxswain was washed overboard. The boat then filled. The third roller brought the coxswain back tothe boat and he was saved. By this time the oat had turned over. We passed aline lengthwise her keel to hold on by, and all of us it and held on while sea after sea washed over us. ‘These seas were about 150 feet apart, which al- lowed usa ilttle breathing spell between them. Foraquarter of an hour this struggle with the waves continued, and I do not hesitate to say that acooler and braver set of men under such circum- stances I never saw. Not a man asked for help, though we frequently assisted each other when we saw help was needed and we could possibly do so. ‘Phere was none of that cowardly shoving aside, and fighting for the best. positions, which 1s tos | often witnessed when life 1s the prize contended for.

It will certainly cast Its electoral votes in the usual way. The only man, he says, who could give the republicansany trouble in that State 1s Gen. Butler, and he Is so Weak else- Where that the democrats could not afford to noml- hate him. He says Ohio and West Vinginia will cer- tainly go for Biaine in Octobor. He sways he docs Rot attach much Importance to the disaffection in the party, and that the democrats will find themselves worse spilt up when they come to nom- nate their man. He thinks Bayard would probably be the strongest man for the deinocrats in New York, and Cleveland would come next, but both Would meet with opposition, and would be weak elsewhere, REPESENTATIVE LONG THINKS MASSACHUSETTS CRR- TAIN TO GO REPUBLICAN UNDER ANY CIRCUM- STANCES. Mr. Long was surrounded by a group of anxious friends in the House to-day. The doubtful position of certain Massachusetts republicans rendered his Opinion of special value upon this occaston,and some of the Blaine men drew encouragement from him. He said 10 was impossible to predicate anything at this time. “Much would depend, he-thought, upon What the democrats did in July, but Massachusetts would certainly go republicat) under any elrcum- stances. If the democrats horlnated Cleveland oF Bayard, tt would increase their chances. ‘The dis- affection, however, was local to Massachusetts and southern’ New York, and the ticket of Blaine and Logan was phenominally strong elsewhere. He Thought the independents would not put another Ucket in the field. CONGRATULATING SENATOR LOGAN. The republican Senators who went to Chicago have nearly all returned, and most of them were in thelr seats today. ‘They generally express Satisfaction with the ticket, Senator Logan entered “the chamber while the Prayer Was being delivered, AS soon as il was oer the republican Senators present advanced aiid extended thelr congratulations, The democrats re= smained In thelr sedis, as a rule enly one or two of them extending their congraulations to the vice presidential candidate. ‘TFEAR A FALLING OFF OF KEW REPUBLICAN VOTE. Senator Blair, of New Hampshire, said he was Pleased with the ticket; that he attached more tm- Portance to the platform than to the personnel of the ticket, and he had succeeded in getting the resolutions favoring general education and a labor bureau in the plationn, and had thus accomplished all he desired. “He "thought the ticket would be elect@d, and saw no reason to fear any falling off in the republican vote of New England. Mr. Blair added that whether Blaine or Tiiden be elected the country will no doubt continue toexist and prosper. VIEWS OF DEMOCRATIC SENATORS. Senator Kenna, of West Vinginla, sald the claim that Blaine 1s stronger than any other republican in that state grows Out of the fact that he has tn- vested some money Ina railroad there, and that he has declarvd in his book tn favor of the payment of the West Virginia debt by the government. “But why didn’t they put that in his platform, if they mean it” asked Mr. Kenna; “that.” he continued, “will have no effect In West Vinginta, because the people know st will never be done. ’ But, even if they had reason to belleve the republican party was sincere in this matter, that would not lose us the state, We will carry it by our usual majority, and will defeat Blaine and Lovan.” Mr. Kenva thinks ‘Tilden will be the democratic candidate. Senator Butler, of South Carolina, says “we will beat that ticket.” Senator Voorhees sald: “I do not consider it a strong tcket, and I say tat in ail sincerty, Why Inever in all my life saw such a revolt within a Party against a ticket. ‘The men on that ticket ave kicked an independent every time they had a Chance, and now the independents will kick them ack.” Mr. Voorhees says Arthur and Gresham would have been the strongest Ucket for the republicans, Senator McPherson, of New Jersey, sald: “We are olng LO Swamp that’ Ucket. Yes, we will beat it New Jersey ani in the country. Senator Williams, of Kentucky, sald: “Its a. ed Ucket; no doubt of that. But we will beat OHIO AND INDIANA VIEWS. Representative Calkins, who it 1s expected wily be the republican candidate for governor of Indiana, thinks Arthur would have been stronger, but that Blaine wil! carry Indiana and be elected. Representative Follett, of Ohio, says the Germans of that state regard Blaine as 2 pronounced pro- hibitionist and will not support him. DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN METHODS. ‘The democrats are preparing to formulate cam- paign documents. They are at work upon different branches of Blaine’s record, and will bring up the whole of his past career, with all possible coloring against him.
