TIE TRIBUNE has been tho innocent means OF

Of the probab1o action Of tho Arkansas Inyesti-

The County Commissioners since the recsnt
election. havo become inspired with now zeal for
building new Court. House. Tho Common
Council, however, Is not 80 forward. The reason
for this difference IL peculiar ono. Tho CITY
has no money, Is abort Of royonuo to meet its
regular expenditures, is prohibited from borrow
ing, aud must rafso my money expended upon
now Courthouse BY taxation. The County Conn.,
mlssionors, whilo they have no money iu tho
County Treasury, have tho great right Of all
American municipalities Of issuing and aolllug
bonds. The Commissioners arc anxious to setl
aotno bonds to 1nakc money plenty. Tho Alder
nun would like to do the samo thing, hut tho Con-
sttsution fortunately, donios thom tho privilege.
II this Job Of building Court-House requires
joint action of tho city md county, It is fortu-
nato thing that the city il unable to do anything
in tho matter for yoar. It may be- that next
june the general condition Of thiuga may bo 90
improved TINT tho city may levy q tax for tho
building Of Court-HouHo. In tho meantime.
To suggest that tho present County Board aud
tho proHent Common Council shall do nothing,
but shall loayo 1t to their SUCCESSORS, who will
onter Office three weeks hence.

Disraeli has explained that the reference in his
Guildhall speech to :" Arbitrary Ministers and
1onliciliary risitB," was not meant for Prince
Bismarck. Probably it waH sur upon the Into
Ring Of the Fiji 1slands. DiBraeli ia not afraid
Of him. 1t this distance, the allus!on is plain
enough; but tho parisian papers persist in un-
derstanuing it as intended for Bismarck; and,
without Mr. Diaraeli'a glossary, we might DO be-
&rayed into the same dolugion. II It were 30,

Mr.. Charles e. starkweathor, Of Chicago by
his will devised 70 Tho Now York Bible Hocisty an
undivided oue-eighth Of all luis roal estate, tho
same to pass into tho possession OF that Society
upon tho majority of his youngest child. Undor
the burnt-rocord Rtatute, tho hoirs Of Btark-
weather filed bill to establish thoir title to the
real estato, and tho Bible Society WIS made de-
fondant. The Society appeared, mado claim
under the will, and the Circuit Court Of Cook
County entered r pro jorma In favor Of tho
Bible Society. The Supreme Court Of Illinois
has now reversed this decree, and the grounds
OF tho decision may be thus stated:
Tho American Bible Society Is corporation
chartered By tho laws Of tho Stato OF Now York,
anu it Is not capable Of tallns rca1 estate by de-
viBo In tho State OF Illinois. 10 enable foreign
corporation to take real estate under devise, 1t
must appear that it is authorized to do 80 by the
laws Of the state by which it is created md also
by tho laws Of tho State whoreln the estate lica.
Tho law OF Now York does not authorize tho
Bible Society to take land by deyise, and the ,aws
OF Illinois do not authorize it. In former case,
o"''ot &C" 31t'st o1' LVut5. Lua Couft hold that
foreign corporation could not hold lauds in
this State beyond what was reasonably necessary
for the transaction Of tho business for Which It
waH croated; TINT d corporation created In
another State for the purpose of buying and
aolling lands could not come to this State and
pursue the business for which the corporation
was createa, and that conyeyances to It Of lands
In this snto were void and failed to pass title to
the corporation. This decision ia now roafirmel.
It WOE claimed by the Bible Society that, il tho
devise is void tho Court might carry out the iu-
tentops of the testator by directing tho sale OF
tho real estate and docrceing the payment OF tie
proceeds to tho Society, Thls the Court ruled to
be wholly beyound tho authority Of any court Of
equity.
Tho Legal Ne,os, commenting on this decision
prohibiting foreign corporations from acquiring
real estate iii 1lliuois beyond what is necessary
for tho transaction Of ita ordinary business, sug
costa that it may raiae the question whether
foreign corporations loaning money ia this State
upon real estate security eau become purchasers
Of such real estate oyon to aeoure a debt duo !

| twenty-four hours. We aro apparently living
amld contagion Of crime. THE TRIBUNE of
yesterday recorded OH one pago about twenty
recent murders, any number Of old ouos tho
perpetrators OF which hayo just boon arrested
mud an assortment OF smaller aims. The dis.
patches came from all over tho country, Ona
from Wilkosbarre, Pa, chrouiclod tlreo mur-
dora and ono attempt at murder, all OF which
occurred inside Of twelve hours. Quo from Ciu-
clnnati told Of the arrest of tho three men who
stole s4G,600 from the American Express ollIco
in TINT city. A lettor from Mazatlan, Mexico,
contained the gratifying intelligence tint
nun guilty OF fourteen murders has Just
died thorc,-murderod himself by fellow
gambler. Tlreo of lis victims yero
murdered In Chicago. The noxt piece
Of news was the murder Of thrco brothers in
Texas. Thia was curious caso. Throe men
took breakfast at the brothers' house, aud then
killed two Of thom. That night, when tho third

turned aud finished the job Next to this, IN

The causes of this outbreak of csimo lie on the
