A GREAT HOWL
Uneasy BBS'S ' The Breast Beneath Th
Chieftain's ' Badge ,
The Fire Department Threatened 11 }
n Brcn1t-Ui.
As predicted in yesterday's BKK , th
council's action in electing 0. D. Wallow
Clai
as chief of the fire department , has raised
aid aia howl all over the city , as well ns in the
department iUolf. A number of the best ,
most experienced and most ttustworth )
rro : the men have declared their intention
of ) resigning at onuo , and some did s
peremptorily yesterday. The now chio
was kept busy yesterday in trying to stay
the Btnmpodo , for if it keeps on the citj
will eventually have no department at all
for an organization of green hands
about equal to nono.
Oily Attorney Ilolmcs , with his heavj
weight of legal lore , broke n holothrougl
the old ordinnnco. Ho hold that th
tlol
old council cannot frame an ordtnanci
olbi
binding the action of th now council
also had the ordinance amended DO ns tc
Ox the term nt two ycnrinnd Mr. Waiters
tors was elected for that length of time
toN
Next spring there will bo another now
council , nt least it is hoped so , nnd tloi :
it is to bo supposed that if they want to
turn Mr. Walters out , Mr. Ilolmcs wil
como to the front nnd say that the nclioi
of the old council does bind the now
council , nnd that Wnllora must slay his
two ycnra out.
Mr Tomploton , who wns so unceremoniously
moniously dropped , took the situation
with his usual good temper , and had little
a say beyond the fact that the matter
md boon Bottled , and the contest so far
as ho was concerned settled.
asi
The i council could not have done an act
moro in defiance of the general wish , nnd
nc
ncm
mportant department. The old ordi
nance : under which Ohiof Tomploton was
looted provided that the chief shall
01VI during good behavior , it being the
vowed intention of the framcra that the
in department should not bo a mcro bit
inf politic * ! by.play.
Mr. Tomploton has served for years as
reman , and has a record of which any
no might bo proud , and no chief ever
md a moro harmonious department , and
louo was over moro rospootud and es-
pomod by his men. There is not an in-
imation , oven , bnt that Templeton was
hiu best man to bo found for the place ,
ut the alderman evidently cured moro is
01 the currying out of political purposes
01at ' had no objection to Tomploton bo-
iauso of party for ho , too , is a democrat ,
ut the man Walters had to bp rewarded
orxc personal services. It is given as an
xcuso that because certain democrats
rorkod against Walters , when ho ran of
orcoronor , and defeated him , that to
mnisli these bolters , and to seethe Wai-
ers , ho must bo made chief of the fire
opartinont. *
'i
'iVi Whatever may bo thought of the rola- a
ivo merits of the two men the council
Viat
las subjecttd itself to just criticism for
nnking the ofiico n moro bit of political
ilnndor , for causing a harmonious nnd
IFectivo department to bo broken up and
omoralized ; for openly defying the potions
01ti
tions in Tumplotou's favor signed by all
noui insurance men and nearly over other
msmesa man in the city , nud for show-
ng an utter disregard for what was just ,
is
an and wise.
It is done , however , and the next best n >
ling seuma to bo to got as good men
possible- 1 fill the vacancies caused by
ho resignation of the disaffected ones.
ti is to bo hoped that * the mischief willet
ol bo made still worse by the appoint
ment of professional runners , sporting
ion , bummera and good-fcr-nothingi. a
't is feared that the tondoney will bo to
oason the morals of the deportment , and
hero shall bo a strong effort made to
rovont this if pussiblo.

William Armstrong , the travelling
man for Richmond Bros. , iset'll here nnd
refuses to go back to Missouri without a
rcquistion. Deputy SlieiifF Lewis J.
Moore was here yesterday nnd filed nn
iufortnation before Justice Schurz
charging Armstrong with being a fugitive
from justice. This information acts forth
that while Armstrong was in the employ
of Minter & Burgess ho ombizzled at
Bill county , Mo. , iu October last ,
the sura of 54 and that an indictment
was found by the grand jury last month
charging him with embezzlement. .
Armstrong claims to have had n mis
understanding with the firm about his
salaiy , and when ho left their employ
there was some dispute about the balance.
fjj admits making the collection of the
854 , but says ho has offered to settle and
still willing to settle. Ho propontd
yoatorday to pay over the whole amount
but it scorns that something moro is
wanted. Ho has a letter of recommend'
ation for the house which i * now pros &
ecuting , nnd has other recommendations FlU
a high character. His friends scorn
convinced that it ia ono of those cases iu
which the criminal arm of the law is
made to pinch n man to get him to settle U
matter which should bo adjusted by the
civil courts.
The published report iu the evening
papers that burglars hud secured a largo
sum of money nt Mrs. ill. Clark's rcsi
donco Booms to have no further founda
tion ! than the fact that some tramps
sneaked away tome victuals. Mrs. Clark
at too sensible n woman to keep money
id valuables about her house for burg
lars to got away with.
