THE CAPITAL CITY'S PAVING CUonsiderable Wonderment Expressed At the State Journal's Position, SOMEBODY IN THE WOOD-PILE. Good Prices Realizod From the Sale of State Lots, All of Them Going Above Their Appraised Value, [FROM TIE BEE'S LINCOLN RUREAT.] A column article in the Journal yes- terday on asphalt read so much like the seductive pleas of the proctorian guards of the Asphalt company that people who oncasionally waste time on the editorial page of that paper wondered among therselves how biga fee the Journal was getting in its present attitude on the paving question. To those who labored throngh the specious argument the won- der grew and grew that a head the size of the editor of the Journal should con- tain such a voluble knowledge of the paving question. This is the first time the Journal has come out of its hole to express itself upon the paving question and that fact alone in the “Jobbers Own" was enough to yanke people look with surprise and foresee that a job was in the entire business, It 18 currently talked upon the streets that the asphalt company, in its cfforts to change public opinion and upset the bids made for other paving materials, has employed a prominent firm of attorneys and as high as $15,000, is stated as the fee that are to have to engincer through, In view of this talk and the knowledge that the Journal has thrived on jobs and printing steals, all of which have made its existence possible, the public od to look upon Journal all at once for asphaltum with the remotest degrec of ind the “Jobbers' Own" never in the present lettir contracts can earn a fee of any m: tude. The action of the Journai s idex of its interest in Lincoln and in Lincoln improvements, and the first time it comes out in favor of public improve- ments of this character it is to advocate a scheme. All this is delightful, and shows “f’“i" to the city just how valuable it is to the city to have a paper that can commit itselt so readily whenever thore 18 8 job in sight. ‘The paving situa scems to be that upon the bids ma council committee have decided that H. T. Clarke's bids for blocks and stone were the lowest, and they have unan- imously reccommended that the contract be awarded to Mr. Clarke. The property owners 1n the first and second distriets + have petitioned for cedar blocks, and the counc i ge majority, favor tius ass of sment, consequently the Journal has all of this to overcome in its Tabor of love for asphait. No one enter- s the idea for a moment that the Journal, no matter how much editorial weight it lays on, can do more than block the way for public improvements for a short season, if at all, but it would be eminently characteristic of the outtit if it did this class of business. There are a few membersof the council who may feel under obligations to other contract- 4 and who may be used for a little while as instruments of delay, but it w not bo satisfactory to the people. The city voted bonds for paving, asked bids for the work and ired them and they were in almost every instance reasonable. It looks as though hoves were entertained to undo all this through legal employes and the only truly great paper in the eity, but it will hardly work, and if anything were nceded to set honest people against asphalt it would be found in the outbreak of the ring organ for that material, which to verv many is satis- factory evidence thutit containsa ‘‘divy."’ The city council last nignt npyrnvcd the bid of Henry T. Clarke, of Omaha, for paving and guttering as to the first paving district, the material to be cedar blocks on a concrete foundation. Mr. Clarke announces that in_ten days active work will be in force in the second pav- ing district, The council, it is under- stood, will readyertise for bids and the asphalt crowd will make strenuous efforts 10 secure a mnflurity of property holders 4n the second district to favor their pave- ment, and the fight for blocks and as- phalt will be lively, the asphalt people being nr¥nnlzad to carry their point. Al- though the people favor blocks, the citi- vens are glad to see the fight in one ais- Arict settled and permanent improve- ments conimenced. THE SALE OF STATE LOTS drew a large aitendance at the capitol building yesterday and the sale was held in the senate chamber, Commissioner Scott having charge, and Luce and Rhoades, the nuctioneers, doing the sell- dng. Noticeable among the buyers were a number of Omaha real estate men and capitalists, and local proporty owners were out inforce. The appraisement of ,these lots was considered by many very low at the time they were appraised six weeks ago, but few realizod that the sales iwould run up to what they did. Only a tow of the lots were what might be termed high priced lots,but ull were worth something and sold in many instances at prices paid and made bargains. The sale ‘opened with scattering lots west of the 'railroad tracks in the Salt Creek bottom. ‘Some of these were cut up and washed away, but they were appraiscd on an av- werage of J#0, and sold readily at an aver- nge of $150, each 25x140 in size. Lots ap- praised at $100 each brought $350 to $400 each, and lots apprhised at ,1,000 ou- bled their value in the sales. There are, all told, 300 of these unsold state lots to be sold out, and at the rate they were being F-thurnd in_yesterday they will bring the state nearly if not quite $100,- 000, which funds will be set apart for beautifying the capitol grounds. The sale will be continued to-day until the entire list is closed out. A NOVEL CORPORATION. The Stenger Benevolent association, located at Columbus, Neb., has tiled ar- ticles with the secretacy of state, setting forth the object of the corporation to be to take by gift or purchase, or devise roperty and money not exceeding $100,- &o. and the increase thereof as it annu- ally accrucs, to relieve the ‘necessities of indigent tarmers in Platte county, by procuring for them at times of sickness, medicines and medical aid. The incor porators are Jacob Ernst, John Harvey and Edward Kenscher. Tho corporation looks as though it was 8 good thing for farmers, BRIEF ITEMS. The Lincoln street railway has just re- ceived two new ¢ars for their lines that have been entered for service on the Tenth street road. These cars are the finest ever vrought to the city. The rapid transit cempany are secur- ing their route, havin, wmit from the depot up B street to O'Pelt’s hotel, and x‘uurduy were securing the center of 'welfth street at the opera house corner. 1t has every nppearance of business. ‘The council has becn holding several spocinl meetings of late, but the pavin hus not yet been settled. Mr. Clark, it is aunderstood, stands ready to commence faying blocks in ten days from the time contracts are closed, and the boom will reawaken with the advent of work.

The animus of the attack upon Chief of Police Seavey resides in a clique of disappointed individuals who are de termined to cuin af they cannot rule, Public opinion 1¢ gradually going to the support of Captain Seavey. Said a gentle- man of prominence yesterday who re- fused to allow the use of his name: *‘The attempts to blucken the reputation of Chief Seavey are a part of a damnable plot. Itemuanates from a few whose pri- vate lives ure by no means above re- proach. Through a detective agency in this city and one in Los Angeles, California, the story ta from the Los Angeles Times, was originated. The most vicious attacks on the chief have come from men who have themselves lived here scarcely longer than the chief. Disappointed in their ef- forts to control the police department as a political machine through the man whom they conspired to make chief, these men have plotted and counterplotted as they ever have since their advent here. These schemers enlisted a detecti goney in aha, which has corre 1 i agenci ifornia, and 1s intimate with o) The Los Angeles detectives sprung the story, which appeared in the Times of that piace, and copies of the paper were forwarded to the conspirators here, You know how easily this could be done, for there are always persons who can be found to do anything for a consideration, Observe does not come from 1 Barbary where Seavey lived for a long time. Even if there” was a foundation for the report it shows the character of the men who will ry their opposition into the private life of a reputable man. I have talked to a dozen men to-day—men who have felt that they would her have scen some one els2 ¢ chief of pulice—and not one but are beginning to sympathize with the chief as against the plotters.” Mr. John O'Connor s renorter for the B business in Californi ve Santa Barbara many times. I met Cap- tain Seavey there—the first time L think, in 1875. He vas then marshal. He was univers: spoken of as anice man and a man of excellent reputation, and as good as any in the state of California. He treated everyone courteou: and was considered n man of unswerving courage and an efficient ofti- cer. Aftewards I bought cattle north of Sunta Barbara, where Seavey was farming. He was regarded asin every way an honorable man. I am so positive that the story is false that [ will stand to pay the tare of the woman to this city if she ean be found and brought on here to testsfy." City Comptroller Goodrich addressed a letter to the city attorney asking if, under the circumstances he should pay out the city’s moncy as salary to the chief of police. Mr. Webster said last evening that the chief should be pul upon the appropriation list. that it was tor the council should pass upon whether the money should be paid. Mr. Webster thought he was en- titled to the money until the question was determined. He would not pass an ovinion upon the situation between the hul:u'tl of commissioners and the coun- cil, As 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon the board of police commissioners met in the mayor's oftice in the Annex building. Commissioner Bennett was absent on account of sickness, for which reason the board did not adopt the rules and regulations which were brought up for consideration. Printad forms for ap- plications for police and firemen’s posi- tions were decided upon and ordered printed. Chief Seavey appeared efore the board and emvphatically de- nied the charges in the morning papers. Captain Seavey said that the only foun- dation for the story was that he had had domestio trouble. ~ He could not live with his wife and had left her. He left with'a clear record and referred a number of names to the board from whom the com- missioners could learn the trutn ot his statoment. His tormer wife had married again, There was one child—ason. He had not deserted his family and he had not left Santa Barbara with a woman—to say nothing of another man’s wife. Those stories were unqualificdly false. He asked that the truth of these statements be verified by reference to the citizens whose names he presented. The chief re- tired and the board discussed the situa- tion. It was decided to 1investigate the charges againet Chief Seavey and it his asgertions were verified to stick to him through thick and thin as against those who 8o assiduously sought his downfall, The board was in session for several hours, aud with this understanding the session ended. SEAVEY'S RECORD, Yesterday morning the BEE sent a dis- atch to the city marshal of Santa Bar- ara asking him in regard to Seavey'’s record und if he abandoned his wife and child and ran away with a married woman of San Francisco, The following answer was reccived last evening: SANTA BAmbara, Cal, Juve 5.—W. 8. Seavey abandoned his wite and child here, and & Mra, Paddock disappeared at the same time, wep Fonruvusm, Deputy Marshal. An Interview With the Chief. Chief Seavey was found in his rooms at a late hour last night and was shown the telegram from the deputy marshal of Santa Barbara. The chief read the mis- sive and calmly returned it. “What have you to say about the tele- gram, chief:” “Nothing. The matter 15 in the hands of the police commission. They will in- vestigate them. 1t should rest there. “Do you know Deputy Mavshal Far- bush?"” “Oh, yes T wa man 3 *'Did you ever have any difliculty with him—is'there any reason that you can imagine why he should feel any animos- ity toward you?®" *No reason whatever so far asTknow," *“Did you know any Mrs. Paddock in Santa Barbara?" *“There were several familles of Pad- docks in Santa Barbara. I lived neigh- bors to one family and was on good terms with them." 3 *'Was your name ever assoclated with a Mrs. Paddock?” “No, air," *‘But your name 18 here mentioned in connoction with such » person?’ *'It 18 by inference only. A Mrs. Pad- dock may have left there at the time 1 did, I know nothing about it.” “‘Chief, were your domestio troubles generally known--did they get mto the prints or were they current about town*" “{ prefer to nothing about my do- mestic matters, The commission will in- vestigate me.

Late yesterday afternoon it became apparent that the combination against | the chief was powerful enough to over- | throw Captain Se ey. Candidates for the head of the poljee department began to again bob serenely up. Among the number of new names mentioned was that of | * N. Pierce, formerly super- intendent of the Douglas county poor farm, The number of aspirants is in- creasing STREET RAIWAY TROUBLES, The Allegations on Which Injunctions are Asked—Connell Takes a Hand. In the action commenced in the district court which is referred to elsewhere asa of the contest between the Omaha Motor Railway company and the Omaha Horse Railway company, the former alleges that itis authorized to construct street rallways in Omaha, and has been tor the last month authorized to construct and operate a street railway on Leavenworth und Sixteenth streets, and that in pursu- ance of this authority it procecded to construct a street railway on Leave worth street between Fonrteenth street on the east and the western limits of the city, and that it placed ties and ils upon Leavenworth street across Six- teenth strect. That on June 2 the defend- ants unlawfully removed the track, ties and rails of the plaintifl; tha the defendant is now attempting to construct a track upon the right of way of the plaintiff' in such a manuer as to preventand obstruct the plaintifi’s line. The plainufl’ prays, therefore, for a temporary injunction’ and restrmning order be granted. The petition the plaintif’s Samuel D. Meree plaintiff compan, Judge Neville granted the temporary restraining order and set the h: The bond of the plain t £500, which was give ). Mereer and John Field as sureties. The counter petition for an injunc- tion against the Omaha Motor company sets forth that the defendants have no right or an- thority whatever to construet steel rail way tracks in the streets of the ity of Omaha and are trespassers thereon, and that the said pluntift has now, and has had ever sence the passage of the act aforesaid incorporating it, the right to build snd operate horse railways in, along and upon all the s of the city of Omaha and the excinsive right thereto. George E. Pritchett is the florse Rail- way company’s attorney. \\ Connell takes a hand n the ~ discussion, by commencing an action on behalf of himself and other property holders on Leavenworth street against the Motor company. He complains that the Motor company's line is u public nuisance; that its track 1s lnid in a winding and irregular line with 1" rails, which are forbidden by ordinance; that the company is without a franchise, and is pushing the work with a force of over fifty men, to the great detriment of about one hundred property holders, He asks for an injunction, also. THE COURTS. The Cases Determined in Them the Last Twenty-four Hours, Judge Dundy was confined to his home this morning by illness. In Judge Groff's court, this morning, Frank Wolff, charged with arson, was found not guilty at the suggestion ot the county attorney, who became satisfied that there was not evidence in the case sufficient to convict the defendant. The latter and his wife were present, and bml; shed tears when the verdict was read. Judge Hopewell is hearing the case of Ofticer Duff Green against Constable Edgerton and a party named Miller, to secure a reward of $100 for the arrest of a silk robber, whom both Green and Edgeiton claim to have arrested. Judge Neville 18 still hearing the case yt Melauist vs J. E.-Riley, which involves some difticult questions of law and sev- eral days may elapse before a decision shall be given. Between times Judge Neville issued the railway injunctions elsewhere referred to. The case of Wolff, above mentioned, disposes of all of the criminal cases with the exception of that of manslaughter against Mittman of Millard, and Val- lence, charged with the killing of Quin- lan two_ weeks ago last Sunday night. These Mr. Simeral does not wish to bring up for a weok, which will proba- bly enable Judge Groff to assist Judges Neville, Hopewell and Wakely on the civil dockets. signed by J. C. Cowin, ttorney, and verified by the president of the Commissioners and Farm Deeds. The county commissioners are offering. to purchasers of lots in the part of the county farm just sold, quit-claim instead of warranty decds. These have been de- chned by several of the purchasers, but the commissioners say they will not give any others until they get an opinion of the county attorney upon the subject.

His claws are also very large, but have no feathers or hair on them like the or- dinary owl. His face looked like a monk- ey's, with white cheeks and a black strenk over each cye. The rest of his head inclined to gray with black dots near the end of each feather, The body was covered with a besutiful plumage unlike any other bitd he ever knew of. Whenever he went near it it gave a most unearthly yell, that even frightened the dogs. It whipped out every dog on the place.
