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.

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.

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.

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

George Kucblor , a butcher on Saun

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.

THIS SEASON'S s I
business has been a surprise to us , particularly the enormous
sales durinp- the past four weeks. We are determined to keep
it up. New goods are constantly arriving by express * and everv
dav we have new bargains to offer. This time it's in the furnish
ing department. Our fanov Percale Shirts at 35o are equal to
anv 7 5o shirts offered bv other houses * Better ones in proper
tion. The white laundried shirts which we are selling for 70 and
OOo cannot be had elsewhere for less than double the monev.
In unlaundried white shir ts we have one at 30c. We do not keep
it for a special sale , but sell it everv dav for that priceand it is as
good a shirt as others are offering at special sales for 40c or
50o. In Underwear our sales have been marvelous andwe can
not get them in fast enough. Our 15c gauze Shirt is the talk
of the citv another supplv has come. We have also just open
ed an extra fine short sleeve clouded gauze Shirt * a noveltv in
color , at 35c. The shirt is cheap at 60c. Our 25c a dozen four
in hand Scarfs are the hit of the the season. No old stock , but
new , fresh and beautiful patterns ; the manufacturer cannot
make them fast enough for us. Other dealers sell them at lOo
apiece. A noveltv in this line is a straw scarf * a beautiful thing , '
20c. You can see it in our corner window.
All goods marked in plain figures and at one price.
