ANDES ISs. CO.-The elastic vitality of
the West is admirably illustrated by the eXpe-
rence of this company. II was organized
about fifteen months ago, with capital of Il
million Of dollars, and on the occurrence of
the Chicago Fire had already accumulated a
| surplus rapidly rising to another million. The
Chicago disaster was a severe blow, intiicting
a loss of $50 900, but il was sustained with
unfiinching fortitude. President j. b. Ben
net, Esq, turned to his stockholders for aid
amounting to half million, which he re-
quired in three equal stallments. at 80, 60
and 80 days The stockholders responded
with the utmost alacrity, and Mr.. Bennett
was agreeably surprised not only by the re-
cept of the first installment long before it
was due, but by the payment from several of
the stockholders Of the full assessment. The
truth is, that the men of the West have inn
plicit trust in Mr.. Bennett, and are well con-
tented to contribute their quota to restore the
Queen of the West to her former glory. The
prompitude with which the Andes has met its
Chicago losses, has immensely enhanced its
reputation throughout tie country, and given
such powerful impetus to its business that
its stockholders will reap such a iull harvest
from the increased rates as will in short
time return them their contributions with in
terest, and place their company in position
second to money. y. Times

ming last and stayed till Thursday morning.

fed fully as having been carried by his broth
er David. The whole family came from St.
Rose, Canada, some years ago, and have
lived in Pittstield and Washington, Mass,
and numerous other places. Michael and
David the murderers, have committed many
robberies within two or three years. David
is especially well known to the police of
Springfield. The track # the fugitves has
been traced it is thought TO Chester, Mass.
They were evidently heading for Buffalo to

bered, the bonds wore traced to the possession OF

Petts was arrested and lodged In the T0mbs,
while Park was sent to the House Of
Detention as witness: Judge Dowiing.
yesterday made in this Court by Mr. william F.
Howe for his release on bail Assistant District
Attorney Sullivan opposed the application and
pictured Pettis as the terror OF Wall street. He
charged him with the memorable fOrgeries OF
which Simeon Draper was the victim, and insisted
that If admitted to bail, the same should be fixed at
$4,000 at least Mr. Howe urged that the real cul-
prit was Park, and that there was no proof OF the
completely OF Pettis other than Parks unsupported
statement. After some further argument Judge
Barrett granted the application and placed the bail
