The Oity Council Meeting Last Night At- tracted a Big Orowd, MOYNIHAN'S NIGHT WATCH FAILS A Wow and a Wampus Over the 8cheme to Foist the “Captain” Upon an Unoffending Fublic. Eighteen Wise Man, The city council chamber was packed from the railing to doors and windows last night long before the body came to order. It was generally expected that there would be a regular shindy over the police question, and this no doubt at- tracted such a large attendance. There was an immense amount of canvassing between the members for the hour pre- ceding the call to order. It was agreed that the reading of petitions and com- munications should be dispensed with and the council at once proceed with the most important business of the evening. The crowd in the lobby was at times demonstrative and the president twice threatened to have the sergeant-at-arms clear the hall, It was nineteen minutes to 9 o'clock last night when President Bechel rapped the city council to order. The reading of the ordinance was dis- pensed with and the rules suspended to reccive the report of the First ward com- mittee to whom had been referred the mayor’s appointment of P Sharke and Thomas Hays as watchmen on the Eleventh street viaduct, recommending Hays’ uppointment and Sharke’s rejec- tion. The revort excited considerable discussion. Mr. Lowery said the mayor had said that Governor Thayer had writ- ten a letter favoring the appointment of Mr. Doll, Mr. Lowery hoped the coun- cil would stick to the committee report and not allow outsiders to be imported into the First ward, Mr. Hascall and Mr. Ford also reflected on Mayor Broatch, insinuating that lie had made too many nromises in reference to the viaduet watchmanship. On vote the ap- xmmlment of Hays was confirmed, Mr, Lowery asserted that the mayor had promised a dozen men the position, and mentioned the names of several who had received assurances. The discussion dis- played considerable warmth. It appears the mayor had sent in the name of Doll after.those of .Hays and Sharke, recommending Doll's appoint- ment strongly. Mr., Hascall favored Sharke, even though he was the Mayor's friend. Mr. Leo wanted to know if Mr. Has- call “‘approved of such acts of perfidy as the mayor had shown?” *1 have nothinfiilo do with the acts of others,”’ replied Mr. Hascall. *“I can only look out for my own." here was a show of applause on the part of the audience, which the president promptly rapped down. On vote the appointment of Sharke was rejected., The rules were suspended and Mr, Hascall introduced a general appropria- tion ordinance, covering all the 1tenmzed expenses incurred by the city during the month of July. When the items for police expense were read, the names of the chief and Captain Green were not included in the list of officers drawing salaries. Mr. Lee move the ordinance be laid temporarily upon the table until further ‘expenses could be inserted which were likely to be handed in from the board of public works. Mr. Ford thought it was time to call a halt, as there were items in the bill which should not be paid—notably 83 for C. E. Mayne as a member of the board of pub- lic works, he having never performed the duties of hie oflice; also Peter: Matza's salary as police serFeant,who has been off dw for four months. r. Lee moved that the item of $67 for Andrew Crawford be stricken out and $70 mserted. Mr. Lee spoke of the smallness of the “'little blue bellied police comnmis- sion” in fining Crawford one day’s pay and said. it was the “meanest thing he had gnown any political body to do.” The motion {msscd without a dissenting voice. Crawford is the patrol wagon conductor who hauled Lee, Bechel and Boyd, of the council, and Rothacker, ot~ the Republican, home from a & saloon at 4 o’clock in the morning. The deductions of pay in the salaries of Sergeant Matza and Officer Norman created counsiderable discussion, Mr. Hascall said the only way he could ac- count for the smailness of the police commission in deducting from these men was that the commissioners had aban- doned religion and gone into politics. This created a laugh among the “specta- tors. The twomen contracted colds on their beats and were off duty for various periods, After several minor changes and desul- tary discussion therson, the ordinance was passed by a unanimous vote. On motion of Mr. Hascall the rules were suspended and the Humph Moyni- han “‘protective night watch” ordinance wlns ‘tlnken u‘p. read a third time and aced upon its passage. er. Alexaudel; doubted whether the “night watch'’ was wanted,as no one pe- titioned for it. He said these policemen would be responsible to no one but Mr. Moynihan, and he thought the charter provided that all policemen should be under the jurisdiction of the chief of police. He thought the city attorney should be asked for an opmion. Mr. Hascall, father of the scheme, said the best citizens wanted it. He admitted “if we had a police commission worth anything the necessity for the night watch would not be so great.”! 1t was the duty of the council to protect the ciuzens. Mr. Ford said there were now thirty or forty block watchmen paid by the mer- chants. He thought there was no buga- boo in the night watch. ‘‘Rosewater claimed this was a scheme to disorganize the police force. But he is notaprophet, at least he isn't a very good one.” said the classical Patrick as he dropped into asper recited the incident of ynihan's employes lr{vmg to burglar- his house, and said that 1t might be possible he left Chicago for reasons. He couldn’t understand how it was that the strong friends of Moynihan could make such a fight on the chiet for his short residence in Omaha when Moyniban had been here less than a year, Mr. Hascall jumped to his feet and drew an ordinance from his pocket which he said Mr. Kasper had introduced last fall in the old council. It was of similar tenor as the one before the council. Mr. Kasper explained the circum- stances, Mr. Burnham did not believe any con- struction in the charter eould be made to delegate such powers to a person out- side the city government. The powers were sweepihg and unwurranted, Mr. Ford disputed the point made by Mr, Kaspar that Moynihan had to leave Chicago. He said Moynihan was being persecuted by a rival detective named Jim Neligh who was using Mr. Kasper. He lmlll(y lefended Moynihan, Mr, rstead was sorry to see 5o many personalities amouE the members. He #aid he found the business men of the city opposed to the ordinance in the.pro- ortion of about 25to 1. 1f he thought hey were in favor of it he would vote or it, Mr, Lee said if the morchants were not in favor of the watch they would not pay forit. The ordinance provided that the tax payers should be put to no. expense, Mr. Burnham' eafd his points had not been answeréd and reassorted that the powers embodied in the ordi- nance could not be legally delegated. Mr. Kaspar denied Mr. Ford's charges and said he oppused Moynihan because he believed him to be an irresponsible person. - Mr. Bedford sald Ke would vote for the ordinance if the ¢ity attorney gave it as his opinion that l(’o ordinance could legaily be passed.” ' Mr. Alexander expressed the samo opinion, and heé' moved to recommit the ordinance until an opinion could be procured from thé city attorney. On call the motion to recommit was lost by a tie vote, as follgws: YEAS, NAYS, Alexander Boyd Baile Ford Bedtord Tes Burnham Lowry. Cheney Manville Counsman Snyder ‘Vancamp Hascall Mr. President—9 The question then arose on the passage of the ordinance and the yote resulted: NAYS. Alexander Bailey Bedford Barnham Cheney Counsman I Kaspar Vancamp Kierstead Mr. President—0 Kitchen—9 ‘The name of Mr. Lee is thirteenth on the list. When it was reached there had been nine noes and three ayes. On the clerk’s call of ‘‘Lee,” that shrewd par- liamentarian sprang to his feet and moved to recommit, the ordinance to the judiciary committee seeing that unless ~ this could be done the ordinance was lost. The president de- cided that the cail of the roll must be proceeded with and before the vote was announced such a motion would be en- tertained. At the close of the call Mr. Lee again put his motion, and with the understanding that the city attorney would deliver an opinion upon the le- gahty of the ordinance, it was then re- committed to the judiciary committee. Mr. Hascall introduced ‘a prenmble and resolution that President Cleveland be received by the city of Omaha on the oc- casion of his visit to this city, should he come, and the resolution passed. On motion of the same member the bonds of Christ Hartman and L. M. Ben- nett as police commissioners were ap- proved. 1t was moved that the regu- lar order of business be proceeded with and this prevailed. Ordinances were taken up on their first reading and a number read providing for various street gradings, extensions and other public improvements, Mr. Manville asked that the ordinance extending Twonty-second street north- west be taken up on its third reading,and on vote it passed. This led to half a dozen bobbing to their feet at one time, all asking the cour- tesy of the council to greescut a pet or nance or resolutions 1 In the midst of the confusion a stentofian voice moved to adjourn untll lo-nigrp, and this motion carried.

HELD 1IN TRUST. An Important Decision in the United States Court. In the United States court morning in the caso of Bates, Reed & Cooley against John and Matilda R. Mc- Connell, Judge Brewer handed down an important decision. Complainants are judgment creditors of John McConnell, a dry goods merchant who failed in Lin- coln in December, 1884, Two months before failing he conveyed a large amount of real estate to his wifa in payment of an alleged in- debtedness. A chattle mortgage was fviwn on stock, at the tine of failure, to a sincoln bank which had a £20,000 claim. The bank took possession and began sell- ing stock to satisfy its claim. Other croeditors began attachment procecdings. "The stock was ample to pay the mort- gage as well as the claims of the attach- ment creditors. Those olaims were vlaced in judfmsnt, and the fudgmcnls assigned by the creditors to Mrs. McComnell ~ for 50 cents on the dollar. These judgments were satisfied in full out of the steck, 8o that half the amount really passed to Mrs. McConnell. Complainants filed this bill seeking to sct aside the convey- ances to Mrs. McConnell as fraudulent and also to charge her as trustee for their benefit, of tue amounts received by her 1n collection of those various judg- ments, It1s held that a credior holding a valid claim can do with it as he pleares, giving all or a portion to the wife of his debtor and if such gift1s made the wife takes the prop- erty free from the claims of her husband. 8o if these creditors had intended to give half their claims to Mrs, McConnell, the money she thus obtained would be hers, free from any claim of complainants, Or, if they sold to her for fifty cents on the dollar, or any other sum, and she paid therefor out of her own money, she wouid hold these judgments and the proceeds free from any claim of complaints. The court holds, however, that the assign- ment of the judgment to Mrs, McConnell was not a bona fide purchase by her, but a trick. McConnell offered to” pay fifty cents on the dollar after his failure, but the larger creditors refused and the scheme seemed to fall through, the assignment being substi- tuted. The whole thing was managed by McConnell, and was simply a trans- action for the purpose of giving his wife the proceeds of goods which should in ood faith have gone to lis own cred- tors. The testimony of Mrs. McConnell shows that she acted as her husband and lawyer advised. The real tramsaction must therefore be adjudgeda a scheme of Mr. McConnell to prevent part of his property going to satisfy his just debts, This the law will not tolerate, and she must be charged .as trustee for the amounts thus received for the benefit of complainants, As to_the conveyance of the property to Mrs. McConnell prior to the failure in satisfaction of an alleged just debt, it is undoubted that when Mr, McConnell went into business in 1872 he started with a capital stock of $16,000 to #18,000 of whicn $12,000 was paid by Mrs. McConnell with land which was her separate property. She testifies that she took a note for that amount, running five years with 10 per cent interest, At the end of five ycars the interest was computed and a new note given for $19,226, and at the end of another five years this was again done. The first two notes, however, made five years apart, are on paper alike, written in_the same ink, and are dated Lincoln, Neb. The court believes that both were written at the same time, although not doubting that $12,000 was paid at first. She 18 en- titled to be protected as a creditor to the extent of $12,000 and 10 per cent interest to date as well as to the items of 1ndebt- edness testified to. A computation in this manner, instead of compounding, shows that she has received property of too great value for her debt. The excegs she should be held responsible tor. The decree therefore will be that she holds the money received as the proceeds of the judgments in trust for the complain- ants and that she pay it over in sixty days or that execution issue therefor. 1f the parties cannot agree on the amount the clerk is to compute it. She is adjudged a8 holding the other property as trustee, first for the payment of her own indebt- edness and second the balance due com- plainants, and that a master of the court sell the property and divide the proceeds.

Habitual Drunkenness, Two suits were filed in the county court yesterday against saloon keepers, alleged to be responsible for the habitut- ual drunkenness of two husbands. The first case is that of Mrs. Hattie Wood against Beard & Bagley, saloon keepers at South Omaha. Since the opening of their saloon in May, Celeste Wood, hus- band, has become transformed from a sober, provident husband into a hopeless mebriate, losing thereby a position worth #1,000 a year. The wife therefore fixes her damages at $1,000. The second is that of Mrs. Jennie Gar- neau in behalf of herself and three children, aged respectively five years, two years and six months, against Flannery & Collopy, whose liquor has ruined her husband, Louis Garneau. Lows at one time held a $1,200 position, but lost it over a year ago through his drunken habits, and the family has been reduced to actual want, Mrs, Garneau also fixes her damages at $1,000. 1ujustice to the Justic.. As Justice Anderson was about to drive across the railroad track at Seventh street terday afternoon, a wagon im- mediately in front of him suddenly stopped and commenced to back, and be- fore the justice could get out of the way a long pole which extended about ten feet back from the wagon was jammed into his buggy, breaking the gearing and smashing a couple of the wheels. The buggy was upset and the justice and his son thrown to the ground. Fortunately no bones were broken und they escaped with a few scratches and bruwscs. —Atter the justice had serambled to his feet again, the feliow who had caused all this mischief turned around, as the justice expected, to apologize for the mishap, but, instead, he poured a llumlhl‘lullm?flv gate upon the astonished justice that for the moment took his breath away. About #50 damage was done to the buggy. yosterday . Fire Near Hardwood Lake.
