TIC Relhnnr COLLEGE rIre.

We glad to notice that the authorities
OF Brooke county have offered 81 ,OO0-re-
ward for the arrest aAd conviction Of the
incendiary or incendiaries who set fire TO
Bethany College. This step is a necessity
on the part Of the county after all that has
happened in the Bethany neighborhood
OF late. The actual and possible loss of
property in that vicinity to the tax list Of
the assessors is consideration well
worthy Of the attention OF the county.
Had the college burned down last week
there would have been shrinkage in the
value Of real estate in that neighborhood
that would have told in the tax returns OF
the county for perhaps an indefinite time
to come. This shrinkage at Bethany
would have fallen at length upon the
wholeproperty OF the county, and there
fore every tax payer is Interested in the
arrest and conviction Of the incendiary
who is still at large, and who may at any
time consummate his evident purpose
of destroying the college and killing the
value OF property in the village and
vicinity. We trust that the reward will
induce active efforts to ferret out the mis-
creant. There is certainly some clew to
the perpetrator Of the deed. That Jug Of
oil ought to furnish some data. The in
cendiary may have recently purchased q
jug at some store in that region, and possi-
bly, he may have bought jug and oil at one
and the same time. Inasmuch as the peo.
pie arc well satisfied in their own minds
as 10 who is the guilty party, they should
make every effort to trace that jug and oil
to him. As matters stand no body's pro.
perty Is safe around Bethany while the
mtscreant is at large, and it seems as il
every citizen Of that end Of the county
should feel himself committee Of one to
hunt down the villain and secure his pun

DUBUQUE, IA, October 27.-The State
Supreme Court here to-day rendered a
decision in the case Of Sarah W. Stanley
VS.. the City Of Davenport, which created
considerable excitement, as it will affect
every city in the State upon whose streets
railroads are allowed. The appellant was
injured by her horse being frightened by
the engine Of the street railway and
running away, and she sued the company.
The court below rendered judgment
against her. The Supreme Court reversed
this, holding that the city was liable ior
all damages to persons and property by
the running OF said steam motor. Since
the city has no authority to convey the
title to streets, or authorize their use fol
private purposes, nor for public purpose,
except by legislative authority, which
renders 1t dangerous 10 public travel.

senSatlon In Insurance and Court CIFcIei
Sr. LOUIS, October 27.-Insurance ant
professional circles are good deal excited
to-day by the presentation to Judge Wick
ham, Of the Circuit Court, by Thomas 7
Tatum, attorney for three policy holderl
of the St. LouisL Insurance Company,
of an application asking that Court to or.
der silas Bent, receiver Of said Insurance
Company, to bring suit against certain
persons named to secure money and prop.
erty wrongtully taken or received by them
and belonging to the st. Louis Mutual Life
Insurance Company.
The application Is backed by an afFida-
Wit made by Frank ]. Bowman, IN attor.
ney which alleges that In 1873 certain well
known citizens Of this city formed an as
sociation and entered into conspiracy to
wreck tho st. Louis Life Insurance Com.
pany in favor Of the New York Life Insur.
ance Company, but after taking initiative
steps in the scheme they found that they
Could make more money by turning It
over to the Mound City Life, and there.
fore wrecked It iu favor OF that company
at the expense OF many thousand dollars
paid to different individuals for their aid
or influence in the matter.
One Of the persons referred to in the
affidavit Is prominent lawyer at the bar;
was present when the application was
made and entered a vigorous protest
against its being granted by the court.
Spirited speeches were made on both
sides, and Judge Wickham finally ordered
that the affidavit should be filed and re.
ferred to the Receiver General, and that
the latter make a report in the case.
There are now suits pending against
two or thre prominent citizens, other
than those mentioned in this affidavit
brought by Receiver Bent, to recover
money alleged to have been illegally paid
to them out OF the funds belonging to the
st. Louis Mutual Life, and this case seems
to have grown out Of strong belief and
positive assertion that number OF per-
sons Of this city have large sums OF money
which properly belong to this company.
There also seems to be pretty general de-
sire, as well as demand, by the public
press that the causes OF the failures OF so
many lileinsurance companies within the
few years past should be fully ventilated.
