A column article in the Journal .yes
terday on asphalt road so much like tlio
BeJuctivo pleas of the pnetorlan guards
of the Asphalt company that people who
occasionally waste timu on the editorial
page of that paper wondered among
thctrselvcs how big a fee the Journal
was getting In its present attitude on the
paving question. To tl.oso who labored
through the specious argument the won
der grow and grow that a head tlio size
of tlio editor of the Journal should con
tain such a voluble knowledge of the
paving question. This Is the first timu
the Journal lias como out of its hole to
express itself upon the paving question
and that fact alone in the "Jobbers'
Own" was enough to Make people look
with surprise anil foresee that a job was
in the entire business. It is currently
talked upon the Rtrects that the asphalt
company , in its ellorts to change public
opinion and upset the bids made for
other paving materials , has employed a
prominent linn of attorneys and aa high
as $1(1,000 ( , Is stated as the fee that they
nro to have to engineer asplmltum
through. In view of this talk and tun
knowledge that the Journal has thrived
on jobs and printing steals , all of which
have made its existence possible , the
public cannot bo expected to look
upon thu labors of the Journal all
at once for asphaltum with the remotest
degree of conlideneo , and the "Jobbers'
Own" never in the present letting of
contracts can earn a fee of any magni
tude. The action of the Journal is a fair
index of its Interest in Lincoln and in
Lincoln improvements , und the jirst time
it comes out In favor of public improve
ments of this character it is to advocate
n suhomo. All this is delightful , and
shows again to the city just how valuable
it in to the city to have a paper that can
commit itwelf so readily whenever there
is a lob in bight. J'he paving situation
heoms to be that upon the bids made the
council committee have decided that H.
T. Clarke's bids for blocks and stone
worn the lowest , and they have unan
imously recommended that the contract
be awarded to Mr. Clarke. The property
owners in the first nnd second districts
liavo petitioned for cedar blocks , and thu
council , iri a largo majority , favor tins
class of pavement , consequently the
Journal has all of this to overcome in its
labor ot love for asphalt. No one enter
tains the idea for a moment that the
Journal , no matter how much editorial
weight it lays on , can do more than block
the way for public improvements for a
.short season , if nt all. but it would bo
eminently characteristic of the oullit if it
did this class ot business. There are a
few member * of the council who may
feel under obligations to other contract
ors and who may bo used for a little
while as instruments of delay , but it will
not bo satisfactory to the people. The
city voted bonds for paving , asked bids
for the work and bocureil them
nnd they were in almost every instance
reasonable. It looks as though hones
wore entertained to undo all this through
legal employes and the only truly great
paper in the city , but it will hardly work ,
and if anything were needed to set honest
h people against asphalt it would bo found
in tlio outbreak of the ring organ for that
material , which to vcrv many ia satis
factory evidence lluttit contains a "divy. "
The city council last night approved
the bid of Henry T. Clarke , of Omaha ,
for paving and guttering ; ns to tlio first
paving district , the material to bo cedar
blocks on a concrete foundation. Mr.
Clarke announces that in ton days active
work will bo In force in the second pav
ing district. The council , it is under
stood , will re.ndverti.su for bids and the
asphalt crowd will make strenuous ollbrts
to .secure a majority of property holders
in the second district to favor their pave
ment , nnd the light for blocks and as
phalt will bo lively , the asphalt people
being organized to carry their point. Al
though the pcoplo favor blocks , the citi-
v.ens are glad to see the fight in ono clis-
> \rict settled nnd permanent improve
ments commenced.
TIIK SALi : OK 8TATR LOTS
drew a largo attendance at the capitol
building yesterday nnd the sale was hold
; in the senate chamber , Commissioner
'Scott having charge , and Luce and
[ Khoadcs , the auctioneers , doing the soli-
ting. Noticeable among the buyers were
a number of Omaha real estate won and
capitalists , and local property owners
were out in force. The appraisement of
.those . lots was considered by many very
low at the time they wore appraised six
'weeks ' ago , but few realized that the aalcs
( would run up to what they dia. Only a
[ tow of the lots were what might bo
koriuoii high priced lots , but nil wore worth
womothinK ami sold in many instances nt
prices paid and made bargains. The sale
opened with scattering lots west of the
railroad traoks in the Halt Crock bottom.
'Some of those were cut up ami washed
away , but they were appruisoil on an av
erage of IMO , and sold readily at an aver-
Wo of $160 , each 25x140 in size. Lots ap
praised at $100 each brought $35(1 ( to $400
tiach , and lots apprhised at * 1,000 dou
bled their value in the sales. There are ,
all told , 300 of those unsold state lots to
bo sold out , and at the rate they were
bolng gathered In yesterday they will
bring the state nearly if not quite flOO-
000 , which funds will be set apart for
beautifying the capitol grounds. The
Bale will bo continued to-day until the
on tire list is closed out.
v A NOVEL COlll'OUATION.
The Stengor Honovolnnt association ,

000 , and ttio increase thereof as it annu-
nllv accrues , to relieve the necessities of
indigent tanners in Finite county , by

finest ever brought to the city.
The rapid transit company are secur
ing their route , having built from the

yesterday were scouring tlto contcr ol
Twelfth street at the opera house corner ,
It has every appearance of business.
The council has been holding several
epocial meetings ot late , but the paving
"tins not yet been settled. Mr. Clark , it is
understood , stands ready to commcnci :
laying blocks in ten duya from the time
contracts are closed , and the boom will
reawaken with the advent of work.
The new base ball park is proving vorj
satisfactory to the public , as is evidence- :
< by the attendance at games , being nearlj
'
'double in number those who patronizoc
the old grounds.

TIII :
Sonic New nml Intcr-entlng Develop
ments in the Cnsc.
The animus of the attack upon Chief
of 1'ollco Soavey resides in n clique
of disappointed individuals who are de
termined to ruin if they cannot rule.
Public opinion is gradually going to the
suppoit of Captain Scmvo.y. Said n gentle
man of prominence yesterday who re
fused to allow the use of his name : "Tho
attempts to bluckon the reputation of
Chief Scavoy nro a part of u damnable
plot. It emanates from a few whoso pri
vate lives are by no means above re
proach. Through a detective agency
in this city and one in Los
Angeles , California , the story
taken from the Los Angeles Times , was
originated. The most vicious attacks on
the chief have como from men who liavo
themselves lived hero scarcely longer
than the chief. Disappointed in their ef
forts to control the police department as
a political machine through the man
whom they conspnod to make chief ,
these men have plotted nnd
counterplotted as they ever
have since their advent hero.
These schemers enlisted a detective
agency in Omaha , which has corres
pondence with agencies in California ,
and is intimate with one in Lo Angeles.
Thu Los Angeles detectives sprung the
story , which appeared in the Times of
that place , and copies of the paper were
forwarded to thu conspirators here. Yon
know how easily this could bo
done , for there are always persons
who can be found to do anything for a
consideration. Observe that the story
does not come from Santa llarbara
where Soavoy lived for a long time.
Kvon if there was a foundation for the
report It show * the character of the men
wno will carry their opposition into the
private life of a reputable man. I have
talked to a doron men to-day men who
have felt that they would rather have
seen some ono els3 made chief
of police and not one but are beginning
to hympathi/.o witli the chief as against
the plotters. "
Mr. John O'Connor said yesterday to a
ronortcr for thu Br.K : "I wasin the stock
business in California and have been in
Santa llarbara many times. I mot Cap
tain Soavoy there the first time ,
I think , in 1875. Ho was
then marshal , lie was universally spoken
of as a nice man and a man of excellent
reputation , and as good as any in tlio
state of California. He treated everyone
courteously , and was considered a man of
unswerving courage and nn oHiciont ofll-
cor. Aftewanls 1 bought cattle north of
Santa llarbara , whore Seavoy was
farming. Ho was regarded as in every
way an nonorablo man. I am so positive
that the story is false that I will stand to
pay tlio tare of the woman to this city if
she can bo found and brought on here to
testxfy. "
City Comptroller Goodrich addressed
a letter to the city attorney
asking if , under the circumstances
ho should pay out the city's money
ns salary to the chief of police. Mr.
Webster said last evening that the chief
should be pul upon tlio appropriation
list. that it was tor the council should
pass upon whether the money should bo
paid. Mr. Webster thought ho was en
titled to the money until the question
was determined. Ho would not pass an
opinion upon the situation between tlio
board of commissioners and the coun
cil.
cil.As
As 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
board of police commissioners met in the
mayor's olhco in the Annex building.
Commissioner Bennett was absent on
account of sickness , for which reason
the board did not adopt the rules and
regulations which were brought up for
consideration. Priutod forms for ap
plications for police and firemen's posi
tions were decided upon nnd ordorcd
printed. Chief Soavoy appeared
before the board and emphatically de
nied the charges in the morning papers.
Captain Searoy said that the only foun
dation for the story was that ho had had
domestic trouble. Ho could not Hvo wi h
his wife and had loft her. Ho loft with a
clear record and referred a number of
names to the board from whom the com
missioners could learn the trutn ot his
statement. His former wife had married
again. There was one child ason. Ho
had not deserted his family and ho had
not left Santa Barbara with a woman to
say nothing of another man's wife. These
stories were unqualilicdly false. Ho
asked that the truth of thcso statements
bo verified by reference to the cituons
whose names no presented. The chief re
tired nnd the board discussed the situa
tion. It was decided to investigate the
charges against Chief Soavoy and if his
assertions wore verified to stiuk to him
through thick and thin as against those
who so assiduously sought his downfall.
The board was in session for several
hours , and with this understanding the'
session ended.
SEAVEV'S KKCOUD.
Yesterday morning the BEE sent a dis
patch to the city marshal of Santa Bar
bara asking him in regard to Soavoy's
record and if ho abandoned his wife and
child and ran away with a married
woman of San Francisco. The following
answer was received last evening :
SANTA. BAIIUAIIA. Oal. , June 8. W. S.
Seavey abandoned his wite and child here ,
and a Mrs. I'adtlock disappeared at the same
tlmo. Fituii Foimusn ,
Deputy Marshal.
An Interview With tbo Chief.
Chief Soavoy was found in his rooms at
a late hour last night and was shown the
telegram from the deputy marshal of
Santa Barbara. The chief road the mis
sive nnd calmly returned it.
"What'have you to say about the telegram -
gram , chief ? "
"Nothing. The matter is in the hands
of the police commission. Thoy'will in
vestigate thorn. It should rest there. "
"Do you know Deputy Marshal Far-
bush ? "
"Oh , yes ; ho was a young man when
I was there. Ho is a very nice young
man. "
"Did you over have any difficulty with
him Is there any reason that you can
imagine why ho should foul any animos
ity toward you ? "
"No reason whatever so far asl know. "
"Did you know any Mrs. Puddock in
Santa Barbara ? "
"Thoro were several families of Pad
docks in Santa Barbara. I lived neigh
bors to one family and was on good
terms with them. "
"Wasyour name over associated with
a Mrs. Paddock ? "
"No , sir. "
"But your name is hero mentioned in
connection with such a person ? "
"It is by Inference only. A Mrs. Pad
dock may have left there at tlio time 1
did. I know nothing about it. "
"Chief , worn your domestic troubles
generally known did they get into the
prints or were they current about town ? "
"I prefer to say nothing about my do
mestic matters. The commission will in
vestigate me. The affair Ss in their
hands. They have or will haTO the
names of persons who can furnish thorn
evidence. "
"Is there nothing you have to say
chief ? "
"Nothing whatever. 1 am in the
hands of the board of police coinmls *
sioncrs. "
Candidate * liobblnc Up.
Late yesterday afternoon it became
apparent ! that the combination against
the II I chief was powerful enough to over
II throw I Captain Scavoy. Candidates for
the I head of the poljeo dejmrtmont began
to I again bob serenely up. Among the
number 1 of now names mentioned was
that of Isaac N. Pierce , formerly super
intendent of the Douirlas county poor
farm. Tlio number of aspirants is in
creasing.
BTKKET ItAlWAY
Tlio Allocutions on Which Injunctions
nto Asked Council Takes n llntid ,
In the action commenced in the district
court which is referred to elsewhere as a
of tlio contest between the Omaha Motor
Railway company and the Omaha Horse
Hallway company , tlio former alleges
that it is authorized to construct street
railways In Omaha , and lias boon tor the
last month authori/.ed to constiuct and
operatic a street railway on Loavcnworth
and Sixteenth streets , and that in pursu
ance of this authority it proceeded to
construct a street r.vilway on Leaven-
worth street between Fourteenth street
on the east and the western limits of thn
city , and that it placed ties mid rails
upon I.eavonworlh street across Six
teenth street. That on Juno 2 the defend
ants unlawfully icnioved the track , tics
and rails of thu plaint ! ! ! ' ; tha the defendant
is now attempting to construct a track
upon the right of way of the plaintiff in
such a manner as to prevent and obstruct
the plaintill's lino.
The plamtiu" prays , therefore , for a
temporary injunction and restraining
order bo granted.
The petition is signed by J. C. Cowin ,
the plaintilV's attorney , and verified by
Samuel D. Mercer , the president of the
plaintiff company.
Judge Neville granted tlio temporary
restraining order and set the hearing for
Juno G. The bond of the phuntill was
placed at $500 , which was given , with S.
1) ) . Mercer and John Field as surotjos.
The counter petition for an injunc
tion against the Omaha Motor
company sets forth
that the defendants have no right or au
thority whatever to construct steel rail
way tracks in the streets of the city of
Omaha and are trespassers thoreon. and
that the said plaintiff has now , and has
had ever se.n co the passage of the act
aforesaid incorporating it , tlio right to
build and operate horse railways jn ,
along and upon all the streets of the city
of Omaha and the exclusive right thereto.
George E. Pritchctt is the llorso Hail-
wav company's attorney.
W. J. Connell takes a hand in
the discussion , by commencing an
action on behalf of himself and
other property holders on Loavenworth
street against the Motor company. Ho
complains that the Motor company's line
is a public nuisance ; that its trade is laid
in a winding and irregular line with "T"
rails , which are forbidden by ordinance ;
that the company is without a franchise ,
and is pushing the work with a force of
over lifty men , to the great detriment ol
about ono hundred property holders , Ho
asks for an injunction , also.
THE couurs.
The Cases Determined in Them the
Ijiist Twenty-four Hours.
Judge Dundy was confined to his homo
this morning by illness.
In Judge Groff's court , this morning ,
irank Wolf ! ' , charged with arson , was
found not guilty at the suggestion ot the
county attorney , who became satisfied
that there was not evidence in the case
sufficient to convict the defendant. Tlio
latter and his wife were present , and
both shed tours when the verdict was
read.
Judge Hopowoll is hearing the case of
Officer Duff Green against Constable
Edgcrton and a party named Miller , to
secure a reward "of $100 for the arrest of
a silk robber , whom both Green and
Edgeiton claim to have arrested.
Judge Neville is still hearing the case
yf Melquiht vs J.E. Hilcy , which involves
some difficult questions of law and _ sev
eral doys may elapse before a decision
shall bo given. Between times Judge
Neville issued the railway injunctions
elsewhere referred to.
The case of Wolff , above mentioned ,
disposes of all of the criminal cases with
the exception of that of manslaughter
against Mlttman of Millard , nnd Val-
lencc , charged with the killing of Quin-
Ian two weeks ago last Sunday night.
Those Mr. Si moral does not wish to
bring up for a week , which will proba
bly enable Judge Groff to assist Judges
Neville , Hopewell and Wakoly on the
civil dockets.
Commissioner * nnd Farm Deeds.
The county commissioners are offering
to purchasers of lots in the part of the
county farm just sold , quit-claim instead
of warranty deeds. These have boon de
clined by several of the purchasers , but
the commissioners say they will not give
any others until they got an opinion of
the county attorney upon the subject.
Two great enemies Hood's Sarsaparilla -
parilla and impure blood. The .alter is
utterly defeated by the peculiar modi-
cine.
A Strange Bird tn Korshaw.
Camden ( S. C. ) Journal : One day last
week while Mr. F. B. Phelns was going
through the swamp at Mulberry a largo
bird flow out of a tree overhead. Ho im
mediately throw up his gun acd h'rcd at
it , breaking one wing. Upon going to it
ho saw it was a new bird to him , and
one of the moot savage creatures he over
saw among the bird family. Ho thinks
it belongs to the owl family , as its head
is largo , with tremendous black eyes that
almost snap lire as they look at any ono.
His claws are also very largo , but have
no feathers or hair on them like the or
dinary owl. His face looked like a monk
ey's , with white cheeks and a black
streak over each oyo. The rest of his
head inclined to gray with black dots
near the end of each leather. The body
was covered with a beautiful plumage
unlike any other bird ho over know of.
Whenever he wont near it it gave a most
unearthly yell , that oven frightened the
dogs. It whipped out every dog on the
place. Ho searched through Audubon's
works but failed to find any bird like it ,
and ho is at a loss to know what it is.
