A TEST CASE.
Insurance Companies in Relation
to the Fire Companies.
wilt They Pay ! Per Cent OF
Their Premiums2
The Matter to be Tested in the
District Court.

A transcript was sent up from the JUS.
tees court to the district court yesterday
In the test case brought against Riner &
johnson. Bergman & Gay. S. B. futile
and j. b. Pollard, as agents of various
fire insurance companies under the laws
of 1890.
This is the case in which the fremen OF
the city are so greatly interested. The
first section of the act explains the pur-
pose of the SUIT. 1t is as follows:
There shall be paid on the first day of
July and January of each year to the
treasurer OF any incorporated CITY or
town, for the use, support and benefit OF
fire companies composing the fire depart
ment OF any such CITY or town, BY every
underwater who shall effect any fire iu-
surance and by any person who shall act
as agent for any fire insurance company,
association or underwater whatever,
In any such city or town. a
duty or rate of one per
all premiums which during the year or
part of the year ending ON the next pre-
ceding first day of july or January, shall
have been received by such underwater
or agent, or by any other person for him,
or hall have been agreed to be paid upon
any insurance effected or agreed to be eff.
fected. or promised BY him as such agent
or otherwise. against loss or injury by fire
in any such city or town.
Under the act the agent is required to
give a bond in the sum of $500 to the city
treasurer for the faithful performance of
this duty. Failure to give the bond or
refusal to pay the rate Is punishable by a
a fine OF not more than 81, 900 or impris-
ment in the county Jail for not more thar
six months, or both, in the discretion Of
the court.
Almost Immediately upon the passage
OF this act it was put into effect in Lara
mic. No objection whatever was raised
to it and the amount specified by law was
collected bv the then city treasurer, Otto
Gramm. In Cheyenne, however. obiec-
ton was raised to the payment and no
effort wa made to enforce the collection
until the iremen raised such a row about
it that the suit was brought against the
fire insurance agents Damed SO that an en-
forcement of the law might be had by
order of the court.
The outcome of the case will be watched
with much interest.

IN COUNTY.
A Pack OF Hounds for Hunting Gov.
otes--LIne Riders Employed for
the Winter.


lhush 1tIhiu
Walter and Ward Brooks have Just
completed for John Storrie on his Hat
creek ranch an irrigating ditch two miles
in length.
Several days ago George keeline
brought from Counsel Bluffs, Ia, eight
fox hounds and took them to the 4J ranch
southwest of here where they will be
kept this winter and used to hunt coyotes
and wolves in that section. MIR. KeelIne
says he will also have several stag hounds
out in a few days to assist the fox hounds
in driving out and killing these ~ferocious
beasts that daily prey upon aud eat Al
beef. Some fifty coyotes and wolves have
already been captured in that section by
the aid of these dogs and Mr.. Keeline
says the raid will be made until the pests
are all destroyed and cattle ranging in that
section will hereafter have better protec-
ton from the savage beasts.
The Al outfit made their fall roundup
last week and have thrown the cattle on
Rawhide, near the ranch. They also
discharged all their men except Foreman
Amos and James Stubs. who have been
retained to ride the line this winter and
prevent the stock from being seized by
the festive Nebraska %rustler. This is
something all the cattle companies in the
state ought to do.

TURN HALL OPENING.
The Noted New York PhIIharmoni
club the First Attraction.

The opening of the Turn hall tomor-
row evening will give Cheyenne people
another very pleasant place of amuse-
ment. The management have selected
the New York Philharmonic club as

the Binghampton Tribune says:
The music treat which the New York
Philharmonic club afforded a discrimi-
mating audience last Thursday evening far
surpassed the expectations OF the most
notable connoisseurs in Binghampton, not
withstanding their frequent appearaucc
in this city. 1t does not require but +,
single nights recital to command the at
t%ention and admiration of critical lover
of music-the playing of the club beinJ
of the purest and most notable type o
musical Interpretation.

Condition.

Special Correspondence.
LARAMIE, Wyo., Nov. IA. W.
Wbitehouse was in the city today.
Rev. DIR. RAIDER arrived on the after.
noon tram from Cheyenne and will preach
here tomorrow.
Laramie is not booming, but business
men say that times are not extremely dull.
Today -FOUR correspondent visited many
stores and found the proprietors and
clerks all busy. At the grocery house of
John Guam, Geo. W. Setter was loading

at Walden, in North Park, Colo. Freight
ing in the park will continue all winter.

III BANK SUSPENSION
1t Has Not Created the Least Furry
in Town.

There we're no new developments yes
terday with regard to the suspension of
the Cheyenne National bank. The feel
ing was one of perfect quiet and conf
dence that everything would turn out all
right and that the depositors would gel
everything that is due them.
The bank examiner has not yet reached
here, although he may do so this morn
ing. In the meantime nothing whatevei
can be done. That official as representa-
tive OF the comptroller of the currency
must first make his examination and re.
port, which may be expected very soou
after he gets down to business here.
At all the other banks business pro-
ceeded as usual and there was no more
and no less fluctuations in the cash bal
ances than is usual from dav to day on
the most ordinary OCCASIONS.
At the CHEYENNE National MIR. Beard
still continued in charge. There were a
number of callers. but none had any fears
that their money was lost. In fact, most

Hurlbut, the bookkeeper. and the fna'
statement, showing the condition of the
bank at the moment the blinds were
drawn, was made u by Geo. f. Nor
gan, the assistant cashier. This was
found to be just as satisfactory as was an.

JUST TWO r
TO Show the General Belief OF the
Citizens OF Laramie.

A correspondent of TIE LEADER after
a close search OF Laramie arrives at the
conclusion that every one present at the
Warren lecture believed the speaker was
giving An autobiography in the closing
portion of his address, with one single ex-
ception. That exception is DIR. Albinus
johnson. president OF the state university.
From a number of interviews which he
had on the subject, The LEADER selects
two.
DR.. j. III. Hayford, editor OF the Lara
annie Sentinel, and a very bitter Republi-
can, said: "Ot course Warren was talk
ing of himself. | knew it because l
know his history, have known him per-
sonally since he was 81, and was raised in
New England myself and know how boys
are brought up there"
w. III. Holiday, a Democrat and the
head of one Of the biggest business houses
of the state, said Il went to hear War.
ren's lecture because he has stood we'll
financially while strong men went down,
and L believed he could talk Interestingly
on the subject assigned. Any man who
comes to our city TO lecture deserves much
credit for it and had he not run in that
story about himself with an appeal to
workingmen for political support, l should
have been in favor of rendering him a
vote of thanks"
