Lincoln's Diplomacy

[L Verge]

In regards to the Russian relations, many long years ago I read about an incident that occurred while the Russian Navy was wintering in New York harbor. A bar fight broke out with some Americans and the Russian sailors, and one of the sailors was killed. I ca't remember the details, but for some reason the body was not returned to the Russians and there was a diplomatic incident where Lincoln was asked to intervene. Has anyone else ever read about this?
