Stuck on Maya Mel Script

I'm trying to create a script that will take a random selection of objects, and organize them into 3 "piles" it should be fairly simple, and I'm sure I'm just about there... but when I try to execute it I get an error message, it reads:

"//Error: No object matches name: "

Anyone have an idea what's wrong? This is only my second mel script.
string $objs[] = (`ls -sl`);
int $numObjs = size( $objs );
float $oneThird = $numObjs / 3;
float $twoThirds = $numObjs - $oneThird;
for( $i = 0; $i < $numObjs; $i++ );{
	string $n = $objs[$i];
	if ( $i < $oneThird ){
	move -ws 0 5 0 $n;
	}else{
	if ( $i < $twoThirds ){
	move -ws 0 10 0 $n;
	}else{
	move -ws 0 15 0 $n;
	}
	}
}
