There Will a little neighborly quarrel on
South Thirteenth street last eveDlng. Only
one man was hurt , anti he not fatally , but
this fortunate result was brought about
neither by the small size of the weapon nor
the good will or the 1\SlI1l1anl.
The two principals to the quarrel were
Thomas lcOulrc and Levi Altschuler , the
former a teamster , and the latter a peddler.
Thy live In adjoining houses , Altschuler
being at 1837 South Thirteenth street Llv-
lug so close together they have yet been tar
apart In SIJlrlt , anti peace has been a stranger
at theIr lIIeetings
It appears that the lcOulre family has
been In the habit of pOllrlllg slops In such
n place that It flowed Into the yard of the
Aitacliulers The Altschulers have 1I0tifiert
the 'lcGulres that they would pc able to get
along 'n ' lire with the void that the ahsence
oC this odor would create , hut these hints
have been of no avail
Yesterday afternoon , however , Irs. McGuire -
Guire hroughl matters to a climax when she
dumped another bucket of garbage Into the
yard. Irs. Altschuler tola Irs. 'lcOulre
that this would have to stop When Alt-
schuler came home he told Mrs. McGuIre
the ( same thing. When Mctlulre came home
'Irs. McGuire told him what Altschuler and
his wife had told her and thn : : the trouble
began. McGuIre hied himself to a black-
smith shop at 1335 South Thirteenth and
picked himself out a good piece or hickory ,
four feet In length , which had been fashioned
Into a neck yoke. and with this In hand he
waltI'd for Allschuler. Shortly after S
o'clock the latter appeared , and In a haughty
l1)anner lcGulre asked what In blazes he
meant by his threats. Allschuler made nn
Irrelevant remark and told hIm that he was

Altschuler was removed to his home and
several hours were spent In bringing him to
consclousneos. An examination of his head
disclosed the fact that he _ got oft with a
slight compression of the skull and aver ) '
had bruise McGulro was arrested and
charged ! with assault with Intcnt to do
bodily Injury. .
At 3:30 : this mornIng .A1tchuler ! was In a
dangerous ccndltlon. Ills left side was par-
alyzed , and there was some Question as to
his ever recoverIng from the hlo\\
AccordIng to all accounts , Charles Trobcy ,
a member of engine company No. G. at SI1I.-
teenth and Izard streets , was on the war-
path last night. lie came out all rIght , hut
two rarmers are nursing InjurIes which they
claim they received from him. It happened
at 10 o'clocl Trobey hall been rushing a
growler 1111 evening from a saloon on the
opposite corner of the street and had become -

loon for another can of beer at 10 o'clocl
there were two farmers In the place , James
Frank and George Glbhs or Elkhorn . Tro--
boy carried his leer ) to the engine house and
then returned , In company with a large boarll.
As spectators claIm , he struck both the
farmers without the slightest provocation , In
fact , wIthout exchanging a wont with them.
One of the men received a blow behind the
rIght ear allli the oth r's arm was lamed
and It was necessary to summon a physician
to attend to them.
Martin Shields and Thomas Jones got Into
a fight In the Third ward last I night over a
bill which Shields claimed Jones owed hIm. ,

II I , . Colorvi SIn A'l'rM.
At Young Men's Christian association hall
last evening negro melodies and plantation
songs , with one or two numbers of a different
brand , were given by the Knoxville Glee
clllb. The sIngers are all students at the
Knoxville college , and are traveling through
the north to raise funds for the maintenance
of that Institution and the furtherance In , .
other ways of the education of the negro
The first number on the program was a

slatIng of C. H. Wilson allli J. W. 1"lsher.

tenors ; Miss FannIe Carey and Miss Mary
lcCr.1ny. . altos , and Miss Annie Floyd and
Miss Anna Kenned , sopranos. After a
couple of melodies , the "Vacant Chair" was
given hy four male voices and the "Tooth-
ache Son II" was presented ns an encore.
Miss Minnie L. Jenkins at this time occupied -
cuplell a ( IUarter of an hour giving Information -
tion about the work that Is being done at
Knoxville college for the education of the
negro. She stated that already a number of
the leading , schoolJ : In the south had entire
negro faculties and that they were progressing -
gressing well. But she said that the gre.t
tiiuictilty ! was to reach those who lived In
the country places , and that In the states
where the colored population was the tblck-
eat 90 per cent of the negroes were outsIde

Miss Kennedy rendered "My I Old Kentucky

lIIale voices gave "Call the Cattle Home" and
" : 'Iar"s Little Lamb. " Mr. Wilson exhibited -
hibited hIs strong , deep bass In "Old Black

humorus side , perhaps the cleverest piece was
the "SllJIple Simon" given by a male trio
consistIng of Icssrs. Wilson Johnson ana

Street CommissIoner Kaspar Is still sIck at
his residence and In his absence the other
members of the ( Board oC Public Works are
carrying out the ( provIsions of the resolutions
which were adopted at their last meeting.
Nearly all the men who were employed In the
street department and who were laid err
Saturday by Chairman Munro were at the
city hall yesterday morning They were
formed In line and made to sign the employe
list , as Ilenlnndeli by. the finance committee
of the city council
The action of the majority oC the board In
this affaIr Is entirely without prl'cedent. The
making up of the monthly pay roll has invariably -
variably been the exclusIve duty of the head
of each department. The lists as sub-
mUted hy the varIous departments have then .
heen made up by the secretary , approved by
the board and sent to the council. In this
case the finance committee of the council demanded -
manded a list , showing In detail the name and
address of each employe and the particular
place at which he hall been employed at
various times during the month As this
list was not at hand the pay roll of the street
Iepar'ment was hehl out of the regular ap-
propratlon { ordinance by the comptroller at
the Instance of ChaIrman Taylor of the
finance committee.
Since then Sewer CommissIoner Wlnspear
has undertaken the contract of procuring
the list. A list was sent him by Mr. Kas-
par's foreman , but thIs he refused to accept
on the ( plea that he wanted each man to sIgn
the list In hIs own hanllwrltlng. The list
was taken back and again brought to the
office oC the Board of Public Works with the
names of most or the men written by them- ,
selves ThIs , too , was refused ns unsatisfactory -
factory .
WINSPEAR SHOWS IllS HAND.
. "lIow can we tell whether this Is the handwriting -
writing of the men themselves , " said Com-
missioner Wlnspear. "The signatures ! may
he rorgerlcs. There Is only one way In which
an acceptable list can he had. The men ,
must come up here and sign In my presence I
so that I know they are the ones who haye
sl nell. "
ThIs was the purpose or the order which
brought most of the employes of the llepart.
mont to the city hall yesterday morning. A
list was prollucell allli as the roll was called
Wlnspear hal each man come up and sIgn
hi" name and resilience.
While this was being done the men stood ,
around and discussed the unusual proceeding
They saw the employes of other departments
going Into the comptroller's office anti reap-
IpEarlng with their warrants anti cOllld not un-
tierstand why their pay was tteing helll back
while that of the other men on the city pay-
roll was rorthcomlng. They hall been lalll
off indefinitely allli Ilstcalof going out to
look for work they were compelled to put In
their time waIting for their turn to sign
Wlnspear's list.
The effect of the action of the hoard has
been to seriously impede the business of the
street department. Sunday night there were
red lights hung at ten different places around
the city where ball washouts or other ohsta-
cbs made the streets Ilangerous. As there
were no men working yesterday these places
were not being attended to and there were
not even men on the groullli to eec that the
lights were taken down In the morning and
put up again In good / artier at IIlght.
PLANS OF l\IUNItQ AND WINSPEAR.
When It was nnnounced that the majority
of the board proposed to overlook all the
regular employes oC the street department
and appoInt new men In theIr places the men
were unreservedly Indlgnllnt They asserted
that while the work oC the department might
not requIre the highest order of skilled labor
ten men who were familiar wIth It coulll accomplish -
complish more than half as many mora who
were without experIence In street repairs.
No fault had been found wIth theIr work
anti they declared , lint It was an outrage
that they should be turned down to ma\o \
room for others who hall uo better claIm to
cOJ1slderatloll.
Street Commissioner Jaspar says that the
assertion of his colleagues that the ex-
penliltures of hIs department during July
reached an extravagant figure Is the flimsiest
sort of pretext. No work had been
attempted cxcept the usu:1 ! anti necessary
repaIrs and the work whIch hud been or-
dared by various resolutions of the cIty
council. The pay roll had amounted to
somethIng over $3,000 , which he conslllerei1
very rellsonahle : n comparison with the pay
rolls which ran up to $10.000 when Wlnspear
was street commissioner. The street clenn-
lug par roll amounted to $1,900 , which was
$512 less than It was during the correspond-
Ing month of last year , when the street
were cleaned under James Stephenson's con
tract
Chairman Munro announced yesterday
that he allll Sewer Commissioner Wlnspear
would now employ a lot of men for the
street department , as there was a lot oC
washouts to be repaired and other work to
he clone When asked If the old men who
were laid ort Saturday would be re.employed ,
he said that those who had been regularly \
employed woulll not be consiliered. He and
Mr. Wlnspear thought : that the men who
had had work should be obliged to take a
turn at idleness while new men selected by
themselves were given a chance to draw
salarIes for a while
.
