Here is another item concerning

"Detectives who have been in King and
Queen county, the home of Cluverius, say
that they have secured testimony identify
ing with much certainty the watch-key
found near the old reservoir after Fannie
Madison's death as having belonged to
Cluverius. T If this point is established, it
will show that Cluverius had been inside
the reservoir grounds, presumably on the
night or pe girl s death, and that the key
was torn from his watch-chain, in all pro
bability, in a struggle with her.
"The detectives also say that witnesses
will testify to the fact that his hands were
badly scratched on March 14th. it is not
known whether the State has made a mi
croscopic examination for human cuticle
under the girl s finger nails.
- "Evidence has been found in King and
Queen county that Cluverius was in Rich

The following from London, dated

Housebreaking and Bobbery.
The thieves have recently manifested a
decided partiality for things pertaining to
the worldly possessions of Messrs. W. E.
Davis & Son. They broke into his fish-,
house again Sunday night. They tried to
prize open the door, but it had been secured
so fast that they could make but little im
pression upon it, and they finally resorted
to the expedient of tearing the weather
boarding off. Two boards were loosened
and broken I off, and the robbers entered
through the aperture, helped thetn-
seves to the fishermen's rations" to the
extent of about j $15, took as many
fish, and other articles as they wanted, and
pulled all the papers out of the pigeon
holes, ia their search for money, and scat
tered" them promiscuously about the room.
As a lot of cooked crabs was found in front
of the safe, and it was known that none
were left in the house Saturday night, it is
supposed that the-thieves had intended to
eat their luncl in' the officii, but got fright
ened and departed in such haste-that they
forgot their t'grub." It i supposed that
these robberies are committed by river
thieves, who enter at the back of the house
in boats. , J.fi , us -

sounded, which brought . out the depart-1

The glue house was believed at one time
to be in imminent danger;, and everybody
over there went bravely Aa work rolling
barrels of rosin from the intervening space.
The heavy smoke blown across the river
carried with it blazing particles which were
aeposited on the buildings ana in the yaras
lining the river front. By this means fire
was communicated to the premises of the
Wymington Compress y.and " Warehouse
Company, the Messrs. Chadbourn's mill,
and Messrs. Morton & Hall's distillery. In
each case, however, thev fire . was, quickly
extinguished by the aid. of yard hose.
Smoke continued to rise from the ruins
during the day.
Much sympathy is felt for Mr. Bowden
in the severe loss he has sustained, as well
as on account of the personal injuries he
received.! ; . &t

A Destroctlve Fire.
The large , hard ware and crockery estab
lishment of Messrs. Giles & Murchison, on
North Front street, was destroyed by fire
yesterday evening.
It is not known how the fire originated.
About 7.80 o'clock, scarcely half an hour af
ter the stores had been closed for the night,
a dense smoke was discovered issuing from
the basement throagh the iron grating in
frOnt of the building. An alarm was quick
ly given and 'the Fire Department of
the city was soon upon the ground. The
flames, however, had in the meantime spread
rapidly, and in a short time the whole of
the interior of the large building was a
seething mass of flame. There were scores
of crates of crockery in the basement, where
the fire apparently originated, and the straw
and other inflammable material used for
packing afforded ready fuel for the spread
of the flames." The well-directed efforts of
the firemen, however, kept the fire con
fined to the interiof of the building, and at
no time during the progress of the confla
gration was there any danger of adjacent
property burning.
The building is a large three story brick
structure with iron front The first floor
and basement were occupied by Messrs.
Giles & Murchison, and the rooms on the
upper floors as sleeping apartments by
several gentlemen.
Messrs. Giles & Murchison carried a large
stock of hardware and crockery, but very
little of which was saved. It was reported
that they had- insurance upon their stock
for about thirty thousand dollars, which it
is thought would not cover their loss.
The building is. owned by Col. K. M,
Murchison, of. New. York, and is said to be
insured for $12,000.
I There are strong suspicions that the fire
was of incendiary origin. At the time for
closing the doors of the building, about
7 o'clock in the evening, one of the clerks
went with thefportex, to lock the rear base
ment door.. . They were unable to find the
'key, and another one of the" clerks was
caued' and aftct close, search the key was
found . Bfipn ' 4he floor and the door was
locked jf the three-tnen afterwards passing
through the basement, without detecting
the. presence of fire. Very sjiortfo after
this . the fire broke out. - The gentlemen who
were first -present after - the alarm, sent one
of their number round to the rear basement
;door,';wh'o, upon trying it, much to his sur-;
prise 1 found it "unlocked. The interior
then was in flames. Thiamin gular circum
stance leads to ihe supposition 'that the
place was deliberately fired; probably by
some miscreant who had secreted himself
io the basement for the purpose of plunder-ing-the
establishment.
