Mr. Ruff introduced a bill in relation to the salaries of teachers of the public schools; re- ferred to schools committee. The tax bill was received from the other Board with an amendment striking out 65 cents and inserting 60. Mr Houston said that to him it looked like child’s play sending the same bill back to the Mayor that he had just vetoed. ‘he question of concurring io the Council amendment being taken it was not agreed to— ayes 7, noes 7. On motion, the nomination of Dr. A. H. Young, a physician of the Fourth Ward, was taken up and confirmed The nomination of Joseph P. Hough, as Police constable, was taken up and rejected. Mr. Bayly called up the nomination of Jobn Waters as Market Master. He had made inquiry in regard to the complaint brought against him by Mr Richardson, of abusing bim at bis stand in the market, and was sat- isfied that it was a very trifling affair. Mr. Waters was a most efficient officer, and had _— general satisfaction under different ‘ayors by whom he had been appointed. . Evans proceeded to detail the circum- stances of the affair upon which the com- plaint was founded. r. Richardson, while speaking of the disturbance at the City Hall meeting, was approached by Mr. Waters who called bim an infernal liar. Mr. Bayly thought thisa very trifling mat- ter to bring there Complaints had been Drought there in regard to Storm while Mar- ket Master, but they had never influenced bis action, and he had never thought it worth his while to pay attention to them. Mr Busey said here were two entirely dif- ferent statements, and he would like to get at the truth of the matter. For his part he thought a little swearing about that market- bouse would not do any Cara He su; ited that a committee be appointed to look into the matter. Mr Miller inquired if they were to enter into personalities occurring on the street? Mr. Waters was one of the best market mas- ters they had ever had, and was universally Ls fter some further debate the question of confirming the nomination of Mr. Waters was taken, and it was rejected—ayes 6, noes 8. r Busey moved to reconsider, and to post- — the motion to reconsider until next Mon- ; carried. r Riggs. from finance committee, reported back the biil accepting the bequest of Stephen € Ober, and autiozizing the Mayer to invest it in Corporation stocks for the benefit of the poor of Washington, with au amendment au- thorizing the Mayor to receive and give re- ceipt for the same; laid upon the table. _ Mr. Busey called up the Mayor’s nomina- tions. Mr. Evans called up the nomination of R. B. Owens. Mr. Moore read some correspondence, ex- culpating Mr. Owens from the charge of hav- ng ameeacted the Fourth Ward transfer lists, .» de Mr. Evans said be knew nothing of the pa- = The oaly objection he had to Mr. wens was communicated to him by a gen- tlema, a political friend of the nominee, who represented to him that Owens waz too vio- lent a partisan to do a political opponent jus- tise Mr. Bayly and Dove inquired the gentle- man’sname, which Mr Evans declined giving. Messrs Moore, Dove, Miller and Bayly testified to the ability of Mr. Owens to per- form the duties of the office satisfactorily. The vote being taken the nomination was rejected—ayes 4, noes 10. Mr. Bayly gave notice of reconsideration. Geo Fulmer was rejected as Commis- sioner of the Washington Asylum—ayes 4, noes 10. Mr. Dove inguired of the gentleman from the Fifth Ward if there were any other objec- tions to Mr. Fuimer aside from his religion Mr. Busey denied the right of the gentle- man from the Second Ward to catechise him Mr. Dove said he questioned him because be had awnounced his platfurm, and announced the reasons which would govern his votes. Mr. Evans thought they had fallen upon times when the vote by ballot fad beenchanged for a viva voce vote, and an ex- lanation of the reasons influencing each vote. Mr. Smith said he was a party man and his rule cf action was to vote as a party man. Mr. Houston warmly repudiated an: rule of action to govern his votes. carded any such ides as voting against a man merely because the Mayor who appointed him ‘was a political opponent. A motion to reconsider was lost. The nomination of John R. Queen, as Inten- dant of the Washington Asylum, coming UP, Mr. Busey said if the Board would indemni: him for a suit of slander he would state his reasons for opposing the nomination. — The nomination was rejected—ayes 5, noes 9.

Williams was rejected also as Measurer of Grain and Bran. A.N. Clements and Ernst Loeiiler were con- firmed as scavengers. Martin P. King was rejected as Apothecary in the Fifth Wari, on the ground that he re- sides at the extremity of the Ward. _ The nomination of Dr. W. B. Batt, as Phy- Melan of the Fifth Ward, was objected t» by Mr. Busey on the nd that Dr. B. was not a resident of the Ward. The nomination was i a Ba 5, noes 9. r. J. M.

And then the Board ad- journed.
