THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 1868. 2TW YORK GOSSIP. Daring; Bond Robbery Re pnvt of tte Fir Marshall Du genuttsskfest Te City Keglsterebtp. Kbw York, Aug. 7. Yesterday, at about two O'clock in the afternoon, a young man of re spectable appearance entered the office of the Btar Fire Insurance Company, No. 00 Broadway. ud inquired of one of the clerks at the counter li Mr. (mentioning the name of a gentle man who occasionally calls there) was within. He was answered that the clerk did not know, and directed to proceed to the back office and make further inquiry there. The Counter where questioner and questioned n this dialogue stood, one on each side of it, is Just InsHe the streot door, running at right angles from the front of the building. The counter is about three feet in height and terminates, about six feet from the Vail, in a range of desk a foot higher than the counter nsod in the transaction of the business of the company. During the colloquy given above, the Secretary of the company stood at the extreme end of this long desk, nearest the light, taking down the numbers of a quauiity of five-twenty bonds of different denomination, amounting, in all, to $40,000, which hd just been received in the office as collateral on a loan mad o by the company, and accompauying winch the customary memorandum of number had not been received. Just as the young man vr&a Informed to look for the party he inquired for in kthe back office, the Secretary, having occasion to me a blot-sheet, slightly turned hi head from the light to icach one, and almos Immediately resuming his former position fonnd, to his consternation, that in this eligh Interval the bonds had been removed snatched away, while the sight of "the young man" making rapid tracks up the steps Into the street Informed him by whom. To Jump over the counter and follow the thief oc cupied the secretary but an instaut; but on gaining Broadway his cry of "Stop thief 1" brought such a crowd around, all eager to learn what's the matter, that he lost eight of the fugitive, and was obliged to relinquish the pursuit of him. That the man entered the office of the insurance company with the intention of stealing, and used the name of a party whom he may have learned sometimes called there, or dropped on the name hap-hazard, as an excuse for coming Id, is almost certain, as the bonds bad Just been carried around from Jay Cooke A Co.'s office, whence they hal doubtless been followed, in the hope that a favorable opportu nity would offer on the street for stealing them, which not happening caused the thief in very desperation at losing so rich -a prize to risk tha bolder movement. The company desire it stated that the loss of these bonds, even if never re covered, will not in the least cripple them or materially affect their monetary safety. Fire Marshal Brockett, in his report of fires during the month of July last, gives the follow' ing figures: The total number of fires and alarms was 99. Of these 45 were extinguished by the Fire Department without any alarm being given, and the police discovered and extin guished 15. Seven were of incendiary origin, eight from explosion of fireworks, and seven from explosion of kerosene lamps. Two men were airested and committed to answer for acts of incendiarism -Simon Strauss, charged with setting fire to the ciear store No. 259 South street, held in $5000 by Justice Dodge, and Wil helm Abe), for an attempt at arson on the pre raises of II. Bauer, Eighth avenue, between Blxty-fourth and Sixty-fifth streets, held by Jus tice Kelly in $1000. The total amount of losses occasioned by tire during the month of July was $178,550, which was covered by an aggregate insurance of $120,740. The annual festival of the Brooklyn Schuctzen Corps, which began on Wednesday, was con tinued yesterday at Myrtle Avenue Park. At 10J o'clock A. M. the Brooklyn and Williams burg Schuetzen Corps, numbering each 70 men, were on the ground, and lost but little time in commencing operations. 0n the first day the targets (double-headed Austrian eagles), had been well riddled, aud It only remained to obliterate the bodies of both birds, and the tai' which still remained to the bird which the Brooklyn men had set up. At 2 P. M. yesterday the tail was shot away by Captain C. B. Wrede who thereby became entitled to the first prize, and the honor of being cro ivned as the king oi' the fost. At the meeting of the general Republican Committee yesterday the following was offered: "That Ills Excellency, (governor Kenton, be respect fully recommended 10 appoint Horace (ireeley to the office or City Register, made vacant by tue suddea death of General Charles O. Halptue, tuut tbe i.lnry of ibe unexpired term may be paid to bis widow." This was received with such a storm of hisses that Mr. Hunt was compelled to withdraw it. THE CATTLE DISEASE. Arrival mt the Tex.e Fever at Pittsburg. Prom the Pittsburg Commercial of Augusts. Considerable excitement was created in tha city yesterday by the arrival from ttie West of a stock train containing a large number of cattle, all of which seem more or lees affected with the Spaninh or "Texas" lever. The train consisted of eighteen cars, containing iu all about three hundred head. On its urrival here, sixty-four ot the animals were found to have died on the way, aad during yesterday mauy that seemed in good health were stricken with the disease aud died. The Chicago papers of Monday mention the arrival at that point ot a large lot of cattle similarly affected, none ot which could be sold. It is probable that these are portions of the same lot, aud it would seem that tlie crowding together in the stock car3 aczravates the disease and increases the mortaliiv. Some of these cattle are lrom Texas, while the principal portion were brought from the Northwestern mates. The Texas cattle stand the fever much better than the others, but the whole lot looks very sickly. The Pennsylvania Railroad Coruoany gave orders not to shin them anv further East, and they will probably all be rendered Into grease here. Sonic speedy disposition should be made of them, because, if they axe allowed to pasture here there is great danger of spreading itao dis ease among our native cattle. Those who have erazmu lands in this county will be slow to uiiniv thPHe diseared animals to enter uDon i, no i, cn rlninif tho lever niav tret a lml.l which cannot be checked until great damage is sustained. Our Meat Inspector should also keep timrn lnnk out tor these nrjimals, aud see that hm nri Allowed to rind a nlace on our market stalls. Those who deal iu Inferior or 'chear." meat should be caretuily watched, and H,nnt tn .nil the flesh of these animals f.r fund should be Duiilfched to tho extent of the law. A CHICAGO TRAGEDY. A Boy Fatally Woualt by a Youtbful From the Chicago Tribune, Aug. 5. a trfirredv of a slekenlne character, the shoot' ntr of a bov nine years old by a noted vouthful criminal named Johnny Lee, iiged 1.1 years, ui culit u at one o'clock yesterday ttliei uuou. The eccne ot the oicumtce was a miserable little alley, the receptacle of garbage and dirty beinea honored with the name of human beings, runntr.fr esst from Ualsted street, and parallel, south, of Sebor Tbe particulars of tho matter, p leaned from various sources, bear tbe impress of reliability, as there is no contradiction in the different statements. The act was, It seems, committed wl bout tbe slightest came, and was the result of the heartless depravity of the criminal. The wounds received by Willie O'Brien, the vhrim, will probably result fatally. Tbe parents ot the two boys live two doors from each other, In little huts, on the rotten alley alluded to. The father were aWnt at work, and tbe mothers happened to be out at the time of the shooting. Little O'Brien had been left In charge of the house, and m there was no one to cook bis dinner, he went out to get some pie. While passtntr Lee's house on his return, Johnny Leo tired a Fprlngtleld ride from tbe window at him. Ha contents, pebbles and shot, lodeing in tbe right groin, inflicting a ehastiy wound, from whc,h the entrails pro traded. There seems to have been no quarrel between the boys, and no possible occasion for the murderous act. Lee has been at the Tolice f'ouit a nu tuber of times, has served in the Bridewell, and Is the dread of the entire neigh borhood in which he lives. Ho escaped, and has not yet been arrested. Die.
