New York June 4 dispatch on Chickahominy battles and IR ironclad move
The Times reports a Friday action near the Chickahominy as a major campaign effort. Bar low and Gibborne divisions wrested a key point but were driven back by a strong rebel reserve.

A local institution was robbed of $20,000 in U S 10 40 bonds with a $2,000 reward offered for recovery.
