A Liveiy Attack on His Official Work. He Bxpleins and Ridicules the Charges Made, There was quite an excited disons. slon in the city council Tuesday over the quention of abollshing the office of clty detective, or at least of dispenaing with the allowance heretofore madefor hin salary, which is the same thing, * Mce. O'Keofe said that he presentod the resolation in order to find out what there was in the report that cer- tain members of the council knew cof matters, which, if true, would ehow that the city was better 'off without the services of a detective than with them, Mr. Baker deprecated the bringing up of the subjoct, as it would renew the old troubles incegard to the police | A. Wilso force, which had been settled with so much difficalty. Mr. Bohm made the assertion that a8 the thing stands nobody can get the appolntment as detective, which is made by the mayor, unless it was upon the recommendation of the mar shal, and that sieant ‘“‘some one who would ‘stand in’ with the marshal and diyide."” He charged the oity deteotive with having refused to work up evidence in some partioular cases and they had to fall back on the police. He also charged that in a certain oase he had demanded a big commis- slon for the recovery of a suit of stolen time and It is probable that there is a | oloth othes, In this Mr. Behm evidently referred to the case in which the two young men were arrested, indicted for grand larceny by the last grand jury and on belng brought into the distriot court were allowed to plead guilty to petit larceny. Two members of the grand jury were councilmen and got onto the matter in this way. 3 .Mr. O'Keefe said he had heard of snch charges and referred to a former city detective who wanted to put blood in & certain man's clothes in order to conviet him c¢f the murder of Col. Watson B, Smith, Mr. Corby thought the proper way to proceed would be to ask tho mayor to Investigate the character of the man he appointed city detective, Mr, Leeder favored having another investigation and some more fun. He favored giving every man a chance for his life, and the city detective ought to be given a falr show and an investi- gation On the vote being called, Mr, Dun- ham explained his vote, saying that the speeches had, some of them, boen ridiculous, and denied some of the charges, He voted no, Mr. Herman voted no bocause, o far oe he knew, the charges were all basad on hearsay. Mr. Loeder voted ho because every- thing had been working so harmonious- ly, they ought to bs left alone. (In the language of Artemus Ward, “N. B,—This is sarkasm.") Mr. Corby also voted no without any remarks, us heis 8 man of few wordas, The resolution to dispense with the salary of the deteotive was carried by & vote of seven to four, THE OTHER SIDE The clty marshal and city detective do not ap) to be at all exercised over the o8, and the latter says in regard to the sult of clothes that the man from whom they were stolen offered him $16 if he would recover his property. He (the city detective) spent elght dollars out of his own pocket in the effort to do so and the man refased to even re-imburse’ him for that, He pronounces the whole charge ridiculous, - — Realizing on Realty.

The trial of Perry Shotwell for the shooting of Henry Eberly, was begun in the district court yesterday morn- ing, but nothing doé beyond empan- nelling a jury until afternoon. Last evening the’ prosecution had got in all the evidence for the state, and it was deemed eo favorable for the defense that his counsel talked of not introductng any ovidence whatever In his behulf. It is probable, however, that they will introduce several witnessos this morn- ing, and the case will be concluded to-day. Tho testimony does not vary ma- terially feom the account of the shoot- ing published at the time, and tends to proving the theory of f.defense advanced by defendant’s counsel. Among the witnesses to come to-day s Robert Gregg, sheriff of Dodge nounty, who witnessed the street fight from che sidewalk, and atood verynear the purtiea when the fatal shot was fired. It all goes to show that Everly snd others were following Shotwell, who ran nesrly a bleck trying to es- cape them and then turned at bay and in self defense put a ballet through his opponent's breast. . THE CHURCH SCANDAL. It 18 Not Made Public, but is Probably The begivning of the Investigation into the conduct of Mrs. Ward, a member of the First M E. church, in conneclion with the famous Bonner- Ward scandal case, was made yos- terday. Rev, Dr, Shanks presided at the meeting, while Rev. Marquette acted as counsel for tho fair defendent and Mr. Breckenridge for the cnurch. As stated, 1t was determined, i i “to keep the possible, details of the sffalr out of the papers, and cons¢quently but little could be learned of the natureof thetestimony. It , however, that seven let- ters written by Mrs. Ward to Brother Bonuer, were adduced as testimony, and the contents are sala to be very damaging to the case of the defendant.
