Mr.. Lichty wanted to know whether

Of the city. II sucll was the case he would
not be entitled to any reward.
Nj. Power was of the impression that
after DR.. Fitzpatrick had received his re.
ward, the city was done paying money for
the conviction of iuccndiaries.
NJ. Bartholomew said this case was
peculiar one i'll many respects, and he did
uut deem the claimant entitled to any re-
ward. He amended tho motion to concur
by moving that common council nOn-cOn-
eur in the action of the select branch.
Mr.. Hurst said that the finance commit
ice had carefully examined the case, and
were of the Opialon that Shaller was
legally entitled to tho reward. He said
the city would save expense by paying tho
money, as if it was not done the case
would be taken to the courts and the city
would be bound to lose it. lie said Shall
lsr's claim was more legal than Fitz-

Mr.. Hurst presented the following
ResolCed, That joint committee of five
members of councils, three from common
council and two from select council, be ap-
pointed to draft q bill, in connection with
the city solicitor, to present to the Legis-
lature, Tor the purpose of restricting the
Oil Pipe Line company in laying their pipes
across, or adjacent to streams in Lancaster
county.
Mr.. Riddle amended the resolution by
inserting, after the word county, the
words (which empty into the Conestoga
above the water works"
The amendment was accepted, when
Mr.. Power said that inasmuch as most of
the line had been laid through the county
already, it would be we'll if the city So
licitOr Wa consulted before councils took
any acti5 q. in the matter.
Mr.. Cochran said that as at some future
time the city would draw water from the
Little ConestOGa, he thought councils
should prohibit the company from cross
ing that stream also.
MIR. Riddle said if councils would do this
they would have big thing on their
hands, as they would virtually be pre-
venting the company from laying their
line in the county. lie was of the opinion
that the line would not do much damage
mot so much, at least, as that done BY
the paper mill.
After some further debate the resolution
as amended was carried, and Messrs Hurst,
Smeych and Riddle were appointed the
committee on the part of the common
couucil. Select council amended by making
the committee consist of three from each
body and appointed Messrs. Wolf, Evans
and Baker. Common council concurred.

An association Of newspapers-the
SENTINEL among the rest-employed a gen.
tleman in Virginia City to prepare the
prcss dispatches received there at the CEN
trail Office, so that we might get the tele.

dispatches last night came just as though
they had been resent from Virginia just as
they were received from the East-that is,
80 jumbled and disconnected that, In some
places, whole sentences had to be stricken
out in order to make the text read at all.
1t is not our disposition to get out OF
humor or complain without full cause.
Under the new arrangement. begun on the
1st Of August, we expected dispatches
selected with greater care and put in better
form; and we still hope that our very
reasonable expectations may be realized.
