I~ncendiary Fires.
CLEVELAND, Sept. 27.-Five incendiary
fires occurred here Thursday night in
large business blocks, mostly set in water
closets. Not much damage was done by
either, but coming in the wake OF the two
undergrad CONGREGATIONS and smaller,
but mysterious fires, the people have be-
come somewhat excited lest an organized
band is trying to burn the city. The
Board of Underwriters have offered q re-
ward of $500 for the arrest and conviction
of any incendisry. The City Council will
probably follow suit at its next sitting.

diary fires in business blocks, but no great
loss.
