V THE1'OMAHA DAILY BEE : TUESDAY , JUNE 21 ; 1887. SEAVEY HOLDS TIIE BELT ; The Police and Fire OommiEsion Hefuso to Arcopt His Resignation , THE PAINTERS ARE STILL OUT. A Visit to tlio Long School Tlio Qulntnn Murder The Colored IJarlierH City NCXVH In General. Hcnvcy Is Chief. Cnpt. Webber 8. Scrvoy is still chief of policu of the city of Omaha. Thorn is a possibility , If not a very strong proba bility , that ho will continue to be chief of police. Saturday afternoon there was n meeting of thu board of lire and polioo commissioner at which Chief Soavoy'.s resignation was accepted and the senior captain , John McDonald , appointed to the vacancy. Tlio transfer of ollic'j waste to have taken place at noon yesterday. At 10 o'clock yesterday morning thu boaril of commissioners convened at their roonvs in the new city building. Just before the bells and whistles of the city announced 12 o'clock , the commission lilud out of their room , wherein they had met with locked doors. About the building were half a do/.cn of the aldcrinunic combination who have hounded Chief Scavey. They wcro smil ing triumphantly in expectation that the result of the session would bo to announce the appointment of a senior captain in McDonald'h place , tlui advancement of Cormack to the seniority and an appoint ment of a now man or ono of the force to the junior captaincy vacated by Cormack. Ten mi nut us after thu board adjourned there were ono half n do/.oii long visaged , astonished looking councilman in excited consulta tion in the olllco of the gas inspector. The cause of the consternation so pain fully manifested in the looks , actions and vehement remarks of the members of thn combination was occasioned by the board of police commissioners announcing that they had reconsidered Saturday's action ana would click to Chief Scavey. The meeting of the boaril was mainly con- lined to the consideration of the question of reconsideration and culminated in the following , passed by a unanimous vote of the board and sent in to the chief's room : Whereas. The vote accepting the roslena- tlon of Chief Scavey , to take pllect nt 12 in. this day , has been reconsidered , theretoio be It lesol\ed , That said resignation bo not ac cented at this time , and that ho bo requested to continue In the discharge of the duties nt said olllce until fuitlicr action of the hoard. 1I < WAiin. H. SMITH. See. Hoard 1'ollco and L'lie Commissioners. Chief Seavey at once drafted thi : fol lowing reply to the ollieinl communica tion of the secretary of the board : To the Honorable Hoard of Fire nnd Police Commissioners Gentlemen : Having rend a copy ol a resolution passed by your honor able body nntllviiij ; me that you have recon sidered your action with regard to the accept ance of my resignation , nnd requesting mete to continue the unties ot chief of police ot Omaha , 1 boc to notify you that 1 will con tinue to discharge the duties of said ollicn as requested. W. S. SIA.VIY : Chief ot Police. A reporter for the HIB : asked each of the commissioners what had induced the action of thu board. "I would rather not mention tnat mat ter , " said Secretary Smith. "Don't ask me , " replied Commissioner Bennett. "I haven't anything to say , " said Mayor lirontch. . "Perhaps some of the other commis sioners will tell you"suggested Commis sioner Gilbert. "Ask the other commissioners , " re plied Commissioner liartman , shaking his head. "You may say , however , that the action of the board was unanimous. " The councilmen about the annex were blue. 'They didn't , attempt to conceal it. "Wo must got together right away , " said Councilman Lowory. 'em , we'll show 'em yet ! " The others voiced their disgust in terms equally as vigorous. Said Councilman Ford , "It is tx direct insult to the council. Wo wcro willing to do anything that they wished now that tlio matter had been fixed up. Hut they give ns a back-handed slap in the face. It is war now to the bitter end. " It was finally decided to hold n consultation of the combination before to-morrow night and determine what action should bo taken at the coun cil meeting Tuesday evening. The nuw.s of the action of the board spread about the city with great rapidity and created a great deal of astonishment nnd a diversified expression of opinion. The sympathisers with the councilmen wore inclined to be wooly and critlci/.o the commissioners , but the sentiment of the most fair minded citizens was that from the high - character acter of the commissioners the action was the result of an honest conviction of 'right. It is believed that the board is in receipt of legal advices from the state authorities at Lincoln , ancHliat these , as well as a well grounded belief that the charges against Chief Scavey ure not well founded , has boon the basis for the determination of the commissioners to stick to their first appointment. M.\STI01l IMINTKItS INDIGNANT. 1'hoy Will NotHccugiilzo the Painters' Union Hereafter. The Master liouso Painters' associa tion of Omaha hold n meeting last night and took the following action relative to the present strike of the painters and paper hangers : Wheu-as , Having eranted practically nil the Painters' union demanded as a condition of their bringing the late strike to c close , nnd Whereas , The Painters * union have not kept t.xltli with us , but have , without just cause or provocation , precipitated another strike uiion us , to the gieat dummm ot our business and the business Interests of the city ieneinlly , now , theri'tore , wo. the Mas ter Puinters' association of Omaha , da llesolvi1 , That from this date \ > o will have notliiiit : to do with the Irresponsible and un reasonable society known as thu Painters' union , and wo will , each and nil ot us , AC- ci-pt no dictation whatever trnm any union or assembly In retard to what men we shall or shall not employ ; also Kc.soUecl , 'llmt the Master House Painters' association do hereby notify all fttrikiug union painters In our employ that they must rejmit for \\orlc to their respective shops withlm twenty-four houn > from noon of June 21 or they will bo dropped from our rolls as having surrendered thulr situations. ISL'iiedj K. U. RVI.KV , Pros. T. J. UKAKD , Sec. Pro tern. MJllK Of TIIK MASTKIW SIDE. In view of thu fact that the accounts of the euuio of the strike , now in force by the journeymen painters , nro so utterly nt variance with the truth , wo request the publication of tlio following : Tliu rate of wages allowed at the set tlement of the tirst strike was to bo thirty ri'iits per hour. This can be proven by minutes of the meeting and the statement ol the grand master of the 1C. of L. . who was present at thu meeting held for that purpose. There , however , arose n misapprehension as to the amount and the ruto asKcd forfJ.70 per day of nine hours was allowed. This was also done in the presence of the committee appointed by the Knights of Labor. As to our having "agreed to make live of our shops strictly union" and discharge our non-union men this is false in every pa.'tieular. Wo also deny the truth of their statement that wo have discriminated against union men , and charge them with n violation of their pledge to refrain from discrimi nating against non-union men. As wit- U rwv'ut wUuu in the building , and their later demand for the Immediate discharge of all employes who did not belong to their association. As to there being over one hundred and fifty non-union men at work for the in em bars of the Matter Painters' associa tion , this is false , We have not one-third of that number. Hccauso these men rejected the proposition of the central labor .uiion to bo bled to the tune of $5.25 , for which they were to receive a card from the union , giving them the privilege of work- iig : in this city without being molested by members of the labor unions , they must bo debarred from work- discharged by their employers , after guarding their interest during tlio recent strike. Wo stand ready to prove the truth of our assertions ami wo Invite the public to investigate the matter , and it they do not find the facts as stated wo will with draw our claim for their moral support during the present troubles. iMASTK.it PAINTIK : , _ City of Omalui. inn ijuxo sciiooii , A Sketch of the I'rogross Made Dur ing the Year. The Long school on the corner of North Twenty-sixth and Uccatnr streets , is in a vicinity wliichh has in a remarkable manner been thickly pomilatcd during the past three years. Kvcn now hundreds of plain and ornate residences are in the course of erection , and the greater number of them arc owned by now residents in the city. The children of these newcomers looked to the Long school for education , but in such numbers that the accommo dations of that structure have been taxed to their utmost. The principal is Miss Sarah M. McChcano. There are now upon the roll nearly nine hundred names. The most advanced class is in the seventh grade , tlio eighth having boon abandoned and sent to the Iziinl school , in order to enable the ad mission of children in the lower grades , grades. During the year , ns shown by tlio records now being made , fifteen chil dren were neither tardy nor absent. The children , in general aupearancc , equalled those of any school yet visited , ana in in tellectual development favorably com pared with the brightest yet met In these walks among the teachers. Miss Me- Cheanc reports that the free text-book system has worked admirably. But few of the books are destroyed or lost , and may obo used a second year by chil dren who aim to preserve their books in a cleanly condition. When the child is given its books , the principal insists upon tlio text-books being covered with cloth. The volume is marked to show that it is tlio property of the board of education , and if it be noticed that it is in any man ner being soiled , the holder of it is gently admonished by the principal of his or her duty concerning it. The first B. and C. classes are taught by Clara F. Cooper. Hero there wore fifty-six children , but during the winter there were sometimes , as many as seventy in the room. They wcro singing like crickets when the BKE representa tive was introduced , when for his edifi cation they recited in concert a metrical essay upon Jack Frost. Later , they wcro grouped on the lloor in a somi-circlo and seemed deeply interested in their work. The leaders were Mcrrium Hancock , Grace C. HancockForest GilmanAnnette Blake , Howard Dcvoo and Halph Libby. Mrs. Lemon has about forty little five- year-old darlings in the first A none of whom had been in class more than three months. There was ix number of pretty sunny little heads among them and the interest they displayed in their early at tempts to become informed was plea ant to note. The leaders are Stebbius Teal , Jennie ' .Viggington , Edna Meyer. This class had been larger , but about one- half its members had been sent to Miss Pofrird's class on Saundcrs street. Miss K. Uixon's class is the first C. , consisting of fifty-eight children averag ing stv anil one-half years. Tlio writing displayed by these was remarkable when their ago was taken into consideration. If they should now leave school , everyone ono would bo able to write his or her name with a facility and legibility which would shame many an adult. A little girl named Emma Anderson read aloud a story , which she had not seen before , and though she met several strange words , she easily and successfully over came the ditliculty which they opposed to her. The leaders in this class comprise Mary Austin , Ward Baker , Fanny Doyo , Kiuma Anderson , William Sicvcrs and William Boycr. The second A class was f ound in an ill ventilated room in the basement , and in charge of Miss Lewis. There were hfty- four children in this apartment , but the atmosphere was not such as to commend the place for school purposes. This is the least objectionable of the three base ment rooms in this school which have been used for class purposes. Two have been abandoned. One of these , this morning , had an atmosphere of seven teen diamaters and savored ot a soap factory , while the other strongly re minded one of a fertilizing establish ment. The last mentioned conduced to the break down in health of Miss Gor don who is now in Denver. The most distinguished in Miss Lewis' class are Libbio Hall. Mary Seaman. Ollio Ulnch and Jessie Springbcrg. The last men tioned little fellow favored the BKK man with a recitation. Miss Ilattio Jones has charge of the sixth A , the leaders of which are Clara Edbolm , George Street , Artnur llorup , Kuto Swart/lamlor and Dora Mathews. Miss Reno Hamilton is the teacher of the fifth B , with ti membership of thirty- liyo. There nro three colored boys and ijirls who are more than ordinarily origlit. The class room is still hung with national colors , the relics of thn decorations used in nn entertainment some time ago. This room boasts of a piano ns do also two other rooms , the expense of which is de frayed by contributions of the pupils. Miss Hamilton's class are S. Stevens , 'Pearl Ochiltrec , Nellie Ayers and George Laird. In the fifth A , Miss Ilattio Eddy's class , there ure about twenty-four children , thu loaders of whom 'are Nettie Wildvig , Grace Leonard , Charles McMillan , Ann Cameron , Annie Anderson' Mary Morse anil Li//.io Gore. Miss iluldu F. Isaacson has the fourth B , with forty children , several of whom road for the visitor with n great deal of proticlencv. Among the loaders in this class are Grace McMillan , Nina Halsoy , George Howyor and Anna Anderson. Miss Sadie Pittman's class ; the third B , consists of about forty-nine children , the distinguished ones of whom being Huldn Johnson , Flora Boasloy , John Young , K.hllo Sheldon and Eflio Halo. Master Harry Mctcalf recited a couple of stanzas of "Horatius at the Bridge , " gteatly to the pleasure of the visitor. In a one-story frame structure in the back yard of the school , adjacent to the streets , are quartered two classes. One of these , the fourth A and B. Is taught by Miss Holed Wyckotr. The walls of the room have neon studded with cheap prints , to relieve the otherwise unattrau- tive interior. There is no means of ven tilation save by doors and windows , and tlio atmosphere , consequently , was rather impure. The distinguished of this class are Beatrice Ball , Lillie Benton , Amy Drake ; Maud Ayers and Charles Owens. In the west end of this frame structure is tlio fourth A , which is taught by Miss Emma Jacobs. It has about forty-six scholars , nnd this number so fills up the apartment that there .is left but little room to accommodate any more. Miss Jacob's most prominent scholars are Leo Forbes , Grace Childs , Lizzie Itamga and Marie Brown. Miss McCheano , the principal , has a shoory and pretty room decorated with fr drawing * au4 manshlp. In this , the soronth A and sixth B classes arc taught. It Is the most ad vanced class In the building , and one of the most studious yet noticed. The more prominent among its members nro Bcrtio Mallcttc , Henry Fntschor , Prank Hiley , Anna Smith and Margaret Colvln. OTIIEIt CLASSES. Attached to this school , are tlirro more classes , located in rooms about half a mile away on Saundcrs street. These are taught by Miss Gillls. Miss Tclford nnd Miss Adda Jones. The last men tioned lady has about fifty-two children In attendance in the second B ; Miss Gillis forty-two In the third A and Miss Tclford , forty in the first A. Tlio loca tion of these school rooms is every way objectionable. Thn doori open upon the streets and the buildings themselves are adjacent to saloons. This subject how ever , has been agitated greatly by par ents and the bourn but It is not likely that anything will bo done to remedy the evil until the latter comes into possession of more funds. JJttiiliintlonq. . The examination of tlio scholars of the public schools commences to-morrow. IJUANCH * CO. OX TOP. Whnt They nrc Doing to llulld up the Oinnha Fruit Market. Berries do not appear to be very plenty this season. The only raspberries on the market yesterday wcro received by Branch & Co. , who always got there whether there is a plenty or not. Black berries will begin arriving in good shape next week. The first car of California assorted fruits for Omaha will bo re ceived by Branch & Co. to-day , and they expect another car on Saturday. Cus tomers from far and near should send in their orders at once. Branch < fe Co. are always on deck and deserve a great deal of ctcdit for bringing the best fruits of all kinds to the city. The dealers in the towns in the country cannot do better than to send in orders to Brar.cli & Co. for fruits of ail kinds. THE QUlXtOAN MUItDER. ClinrlcH A'ollmer on Trial In the Dis trict Court. The murder case , the State vs. Chas. Vollmcr , came up yesterday morning in the district court , before Judge UrofF , with Leo Estcllo , csq. , conducting the defense , and Prosecutor Sinural for the people. A trille over an hour was consumed in impaneling a jury , which stands as fol lows : C. C. Field , II. G. Krattsc , Otis Haynes , Wm. Buttcrfield , Andrew Dugol , Frank 11. Babcr , Henry Van IJuscn , E. J. Tillotson , J.S. llobb , 11. It. Frond , D. S. Parmelcc and P. A. Crowe. The prosecutor made a statement of the case , followed in answer by Mr. Estcllo , who indicated that self-defense would bo the line pursued by the defense. Hero the court took a rectos' until 2 o'clock. It will bo remembered that on Sunday night.tho 15th ot May last. Chas. Vollmer , a German workman in the Howell lum ber yard , shot and killed Dennis ( jtiinlan , in a row in front of FritMueller's beer and dance house out on the old Bellevue road , corner Thirteenth and Yin ton streets. It scorns that Qninlan was on the dancing lloor , when defendant and a friend , ono Augustus Scholl , who is held accessory to the crime , came in and in augurated a little impromtu stag dancn of their own , much to the annoyance of the other dancers , and Quintan pro tested. Warm words ensued , Vollmor finally starting out the door with thu parting declaration that if Qninlan would follow him he'd do him up. Quinian said he would find that a bigger job than he contracted for. but friends hero inter- fcrrcd and Vollmcr went on" and into the barroom , whcro it is alleged ho threat ened to dp his man yet , and indulged in very vile nnd abusive language. A few moments later Quin ian and his friends came out of Moollor's to go over to Jones' saloon , just cat-a-corncr across the street , for a game of pool , and en route , passed Voll- mer and Scholl , and in another instant Vollmcr and Scholl passed them , and Qninlan tapped Scholl on the shoulder with a light rattan cane he carried. Then some one exclaimed : "Let 'cm have it , " and Vollmcr p.ulls his pistol and shoots Quinian dead in iiis tracks , the ball pene trating tlio left eye. Vollmor then ran away , but was arrested next day in the woods south of the city by Olliccr Turn- bull. At the coroner's inquiry he was bound over to the circuit court on the charge of murder in the second degree. The first witness called was Dr. M. A. Robert , who held the post-mortem exam ination on the body of Quinian the day following the homicide. His testimony consisted simply of a description of the wound and the opinion that it was sufli- cientto cause instantdcath. Michael Hinchey , who was with the de ceased on the night of the killing , was called next. His testimony fillicd ac curately with the epitome given above. Several witnesses for the prosecution wore examined. The evidence adduced was in accordance with the report origi nally published , and forms a strong case against the accused. The testimony will nil bo presented to-day. A jury was obtained yesterday morning in tlio case of Mrs. Winnie McDcrmott against the Omaha Belt railway for $10- 000 damages claimed to have been sus tained by said plaintiff by reason of the laying of tracks by the railway company in front of herJpromises on Fifteenth street.

Was the SaiiHitgo Had ? George Kucblor , a butcher on Saun dcrs street between Clark and Grace streets , was arrested on a warrant yes terday , sworn out by C. Goldstein charg ing him with selling condemned meat. Goldstein's twelvo-year-oid boy was made dangerously ill by outing bologna , it is assorted , which had been condemned by the meat inspector but which Kncblor continued to soil. ' Kucblor says that the Goldstein child was made sick by eating three pounds of ice. Ho declares that the sausage had not been condemned ; that he sold the boy bologna and sold off the same piece to others ; that the arrest is due to an effort to down him. The child is reported to bo still quite ill. "The Happy Thought is the best hard coal range in the world. " For sale by C. F. Gardner , 719 North 16th St. Delegates off to Kt. Louta. Messrs. W. B.
