Two Hen Arrested on this Charge , On the 12th of July a building , on Tenth street , near the bridge , was destroyed by fire. Itwas occupied by Conrad Meier , who had his furniture - nituro and other articles insured for $1,250 in the Germauia Insurance Company of Freeport , Illinois. It was discovered some time after the fire , that the articles insured were not worth more than $50. This caused an" investigation into the matter , and an agentof the company arrived here a few days ago for that purpose. The result of his labors and those of others warranted the suspicion that the building had been set on fire. A warrant of arrest was accordingly made out for Meier , and also one for Charles Landsberry , who is charged with being an accessory to the crime. Conslable James Ne- ligh Saturday arrested Meier , and constable Simpson captured Landsberry. The two prisoners were brought before Judge Porter , who bound them over in the sum of $2,000 each for their appearance at the next term of the District Court. Landsberry procured his bonds , and Meier is endeavoring to do the same. Eeal Estate Sales. For the wee } : ending , August 21,1874.

THE IOWA TRAIN ROBBERY , Confession of the Leader of the Gang Who Did the Deed. The train robbery on the Chicago , Bock Island and Pacific railway last year , It will be remembered , created a great sensation not onlj in this city , but throughout thf whole country. The following , from the Kansas City Times , will be oJ deep interest to the many readers 01 the BEE : SHERMAN , Tex. , Aug. 16 , ' 74. ' ' As I am the man who killed James H. Reed , the Austin and San Antonia stage robber , on the IGtL Inst. , in Lamar county , Texas , I fee ] it my duty , as Reed'a dying confes sion was made to me , to send a few lines to Missouri for publication , to let the public know that McCoy and the James and Younger brothers have been persecuted in Missouri. Reed made a confession , and I be lieve he spoke the truth , for I can not believe that one so bravo as Reed was , would speak anything but the truth , when ae was positive that he had only a few moments to live. live.He He would not implicate any one but himself. Hesaid he had robbed stages in Nevada , California , Oregon gen , and Arizona , and that he was the leader of the Iowa train robbery , the leader at Ste. Genevieve and at Gad's Hill ; but he declared to the last that McCoy , and the James and Younger brothers had no hand in these robberies. He said he was the man who ? hot young Rozier at Ste. Genevieve , Mo. Mo.I I had been pursuing Reed for sev eral weeks on the charge ofrobbiug the Austin stage end I ctme upon him at noon when he stopped for dinner , in Lamar county , Texas , 15 miles northwest of Paris : Reed re sisted and I was forced to shoot him. He lived two hours after being shot. He was very brave and deserved a better cause than the life he has led since the war. During the war he served In Shelby's "Iron Brigade , " and no better soldier ever lived. Reed said that lie had never robbed a poor man , and that he was not afraid to die. He had $1,000 in gold on his person when he was killed. He said that he had $20.000 in gold buried , but re fused to tell where it was. Reed was 30 years old , and 5 feet JO inphes high , light hair and whiskers , fair complexion , bli/fe eyes , Roman nose " , high forehead ; weight 135 pound ; had a very small white hand and was very intelli gent.

( From the Council BluQs Globe ) "What is this country coming to , ' is a question that is just now seri ously agitating the Globe , and , ii common with it , hundreds of goo < people in this part of Iowa. Occa slonally are we tempted to concludi that further missionary effort on ou part would be worse than useless buta thought of what the conditior of affairs on "the slope" would in evitably be were it not for our evan gelizing influence , deters us froir becoming "weary iu well doing. " The last case illustrative of thi natural cussedness of human na hire that has come to our notice ii of a rather mysterious character and occurred in the family of Jas Peat , superintendent of the Grange warehouse at Creston. Mr. Peat's residence , however , the reader musi understand , is within the limits o : Adait county , where the family is greatly respected by all acquaintec therewith. A night or two ago i daughter who slept in an uppei room , disappeared froto her apartment - ment In the morning it was found that a ladder had been used at a window of the room , and two men in stocking feet were tracked from the house to the prairie. The girl's track not being seen it is thought she had been chloroformed. On the same morning a man and a young woman boarded the train at Creston and went toward St. Joseph , who are thought to have been the par ties. Mr. Peat started in pursuit , declaring that he would capture the man or perish in the attempt He says if his daughter went voluntari ly he will let her go ; if not , her ab ductor shall die. The girl is but seventeen years old. Last winter an eM r daughter of Mr. Peat voluntarily eloped with the same peroon suspected of this last adventure. Mr. Peat at that tin.e captured the parties and brought his daughter home , beading her to Minnesota directlyaftetward. It is qui'.e likely this may be another voluntary elopement , but this , of coqrse is "mere conjcture. The name of the adventurer Is not given in the Afton News , from which we glean the above narticulars. 255 Harney street , between H'h ' and 15th.
