iHO TOLD THE CHIEF?
Chief Uatner Admits That Somo One
Told Him Kot to Molest a
Certain &iloou.
WHAT COMMISSIONER DUNLAP SAYS
Judge Freeman Has Demanded an In*
veitlgatlon or Hie Action in tile
B*.liln«kl Cnee to lie Undo
Tomorntv Mgbt.
The sensation developed at the meet
ing of city council Tuesday night was
the talk of the city yesterday, and the
general verdict was that nothing short
of a full, free and fair investigation
of the statements nude by Aldermen
Hill and Von and Chief Butner tn re
gard to Instructions having been given
the chief not to molest a certain liquor
eoloou in the city where liquor was
alleged to have been sold on Sunday
and other limes prohibited by law and
where gambling was also- permitted.,
It will be remembered that Alderman
Hill asked Chief Burner in open meet
ing if he (Chief Butner) did not tell
him (Alderman Hill) In the presence
of witnesses that the reason he did
nut make a case against u certain sa
loon for selling liquor on Sunday was
because be (Chief ’Butner) had received
instructions from one of his ‘‘bosses’’
not to interfere with that particular
house, and tlrjlt Chief Burner replied
he had no reooilection of liiviug told
Alderman Hill any such thing, but that
Alderman Hill repeatedly said what
Chief Butner had told him, and one
of the gentlemen in the crowd was so
astonished that lie made a note of It
in a memorandum book, even putting
down the day and hour. Alderman
Van also asked Chief Butner if lie did
not remember telling him that he had
received instructions from one of'Ills
"bosses” not bo "•pull” a certain saloon
mentioned by Alderman Van a3 selling
liquor on Sundays, aind the chief re
plied that ho did.
These statements, tilth others on the
same line published in the Telegraph s-
account of council proceedings yester
day morning fell with such a dull,
sickening thud ou the public car that
It Is little wonder tint people talked
and -will continue to talk until an m-
vestltr.n.R'ia is mode, or euough light
Is thrown on the matter to give them
a full understanding of what it all
means, so that they may put the blame
—if blame there be—where it properly
be A» i ?iilef Butner filled to mention
whom he meant by "one of hi. boosts
and as Cap:. S. S. Dunlap, chalrnvm
of tho police commission, is supposed
to be his principal ‘‘boss.’ a Telegraph
reporter sought Capt. Dunlap O’estet-
day aud asked him If he had e'er
given any such Instructions to Chief
B ‘Nof”ea4d CMcit. Dnulaip. ‘The whole
case, as far as I am concerned, or as fa*
as I know ‘about it. is Just Ms: On the
day of the counity primary election I

In aniswer to qu«3WaH3 from the re
porter, Capt. Dunlop said he httd never

l\ho reporter mexft auw Chief Butner.
"There is ana thing I wish you would
correct In 'the Telegnuph’a repout of the
council (proceed rites,” saM the ohlef,
“tural Uhiit Is that I iaa<d I reedived my
Inotruuttans from ci lady. Whait l oald
was that I received my Information
from :i lady regarding gambling In
which 'her eon had been engaged up
stairs over the old Exchange Bank
bundling.’
“Ohlef, w>hut explanation have you ito
make of 'She oumement made by Abler-
n*m HIM luBt alight ?" asked Che re
porter.
‘‘Only tlrfo: That Alderman Hill told
me that he and Alderman Collins had
taken oupejer at Uttmuai & WiMfeima’ on
(Citation day ami had been served with
beer, amd I went to Ctupt. Dunlap mid
told Mm whait Mr. HIM had oafti, at the
aarne thne asking him If I must muke a
cnee ag-Unnt Hum. He satd I could not
make a case oigolnet them unlaw I raw
them seH the beer., and as It was Just
before the opening of - the f.tdr, tetd me
that I would have my hands full during
the fair. I want k nnderatood, bow’ev-
or. Ohalt Car:. Dunlap meant and I bo
Mxlerjtood him to mean, net to nuke
any case for that one particular time.
We both then talked of gambling anil
drinking during the fair, nnd he add I
woul have my hands full to keep things
straight."
“What nlbout whait Alderman Van
said?" asked the rapontcc.
. what he dfd. as whait I told Mm wsn in
"AHerman Van should not have said
the strictest confidence.”
"Then you did receive such instruc
tions as Alderman Van stated you told
ldm?‘‘
"That was last March, end I request
ed the party giving me the ,Inst ruc
tion. to do 60 in writing so* that I
might show them to tre police commis
sion-**“
"Then It wuo not a commissioner
who gave you suoh instructions?"
“I must decline to say who It was.”
“Did you ever get the Instructions
In writing?"
“No; ma party promised to give
them to me tn writing, but never did
“Cieft don’t you ttrfnk yrai owe
it to yourself to tell the public who
gave you such instructions?''
“I don't think I do. I am willing to
have an Investigation tirade of all my
nets, and If I were to go out of offlee
to-morrow 1 would do so knowing that
I had done my duty.”
Going back again to the conversation
with Capt. Dunlap, Chief Butner said
his men would hear him out that lie
gave them Instructions to look for
g.mbUng nad violations of theordl-
nance govvrnlng the sale of .wu^ky.

Recorder Matt It. Freeman baa demand
ed a full pubPc Investigation of the
charge preferred against him by Alder
man Riley In a ivwrfutton introduced at
the meeting of council on Tuesday night.
• The meeting will be held on Frtday
£gbt at 8 o’clock and will be In the coun
cil cihambcr. The public Is cordially In
vited to be present
The charge preferred against Recorder
Freeman la that he was guilty of serious
neglect of duty in his failure to recom
mend to council the forfeiture of bar
room license granted to L Bashlnskl. who
was convicted 'In the recorder’s court of
selling whisky on Sunday. Recorder Free-
man Imposed a fine of 8100 on BashinskI,
but made no recommendation to council
that hi b license be revoked.
A Telegraph reporter called on Judge
Freeman at his home laat night and asked
him to mako a statement in regard to
hla actions.
“I don’t think It woud be exactly the
proper thing to do now,” said Judge
Freeman, "as I have asked Aldertnftn
Carling to order an investigation and I
don't think it would be becoming In mfi
to say anything pending the Jnveatlgution.
Tho investigation will bo on Friday in
the council chamber at 8 o’clock and the
public is earnestly invited to bo present.
I don t want any star chamber investiga
tion about my acts. Friday night you
will hear what I have to say ancf would
have sooner, but I am compelled to go
to A Uai >ta on business tomorrow, so I
h t f v « investigation on Fri
day night. ’
Further than this Judge Freeman good
haturedly declined to talk except to say
that there vms something behind the
charge made against him. Judging from
hla manner, ho has not tho slightest feat
that he will not bo- able to Bhow clean

Tb toe Editor of toe Telegraph:
Siovim •purify. Now th-ak toe cento.- haa
broken over the city hall, let it come.
In toe rnpont of the proceedings of
council in yo-lteixlayN? issue, Alderman
Vumls quoted as raying, “he did kdt be-
l'Seve in imakln\3f fish of one and fowl of
aiJjtCier. c.inJi thuit he has positive ev
idence of other people so Ming wlfrfaky on
Sunday, who (had not been molcotcd by
tho dhilef of police.” Further on, Aider-
man Van is quoted as em-pSiaitlcnCiy re-
pebr-lria: 'toe assertion—then, suddenly
qualJifyOnt? it. A Merman Van, lifter on,
In a question addmci-aed ito the ohlef of
p?j|ice. rec*Allied -to the lal'iier’n aititen-tiooi
•the,fact tilvait he (Vmn had spoken to the
ohdef fionve tons ago aibout “a certain
pC-aoe edling -wthlsky on Sund.iy,’’ and
that «tihe chief s.iikl he “hud InsArudUono
not to pull thait .place.”
' A-iry fadr-mfnllod man wfty conclude

cammitted hdmself to the fact that he
has Ihud krtowlcdge of peiiple i^olllnig

pcnrtjlvefly, he admitted 1't agAiln, then
quAillftetl It, then admitted It again In-
o.'rbgultiively. Now, this being true, why
has ithe airdieaimum kepk sXonit o^mc^.rn'lng
tihis'se grave violations of munldpAl amd

realtor*. rcUluseid to tpull cemain houses,

longed? Why haa ho kiapct sHerut, only
to apeak when sudden heult lias expamd-
ed .his bosom? Lot him unrawer. It
•would seem tAlldennium Riley has chance
for another resolution.
Ajrain. Crlef Butner admitted, accord
ing to the same report, In reply to Al
dermen Van’s question, that he did
know of a certain house selling whis
ky on Sunday, but that lie hfld instruc
tions “not to pull that place.” r n view
of the oath of office -taken by Chief
Butner, lt would seem *o be^very in
cumbent that he should be specific
In .this matter, and ntate for his own
sake who “instructed” him. Else the
admlsBlon refered to outs him on rec
ord violently contrary to (his oath of
offfee. If he does not desire to ahf.ume
this attitude, let him -tell It oil, nnd
perhaps other ohoutders will be found
on which to let fall toe opportunity
for atil stlVl another resolution from
Alderman Riley.

STEVENS COTTON LETTER.
By Sperfgi Wire to Lyon & James.
New York, Nov. 21.—It was the biggest
day in somo tlma and victory perched
on the banners of the bulls. Tho sales
were 242,000 bales and the advance wnt
19 to 12 points. All ports received today
48,889, ag.'tlnet 39,107. Reports from Ala
bama state that probably not moro than
80 per cent of the crop has been picked.
The seraLweekly receipts at thirteen
towns are 132.000, against W,000 last year
and 104,000 in 1891. New Orleans advanced
11 to 12 points. Liverpool advanced 3
points for futures and l-32d on the spot
wtth sales of 10,000 bales. Manchester
was quiet and firm. New Orleans expects
tomorrow 12.000 to 14,000 bales, against
10,ITS. Branham received 1,900. Bruns
wick and Port Royal have cleared 10,009.
Our dispatches from Han Antonio, Bren
ham, Pino Bluff and Little Rock repori
big receipts .present and prospective, and
a blockade of cotton at Arkansas points.
The fields In many parts of the Southwest
are as white with cotton aa In Septem
ber and promise In some cases a third
of a bale to the acre. Alabama telegram*
report gins, warehouses and platform*
packed with cotton. The receipts at the
heavy receipts, a large estimate for to-
nwrrow and fin" wrath* r. Th.' weak
ness of wheat waa also a formidable ally
to the other weakening Hum*. The trade
waa not brisk uni no disposition to buy
was seen. May corn opened at 49%a%«
ranged between 4914 and 48%. closing at
the Inside—V4 of a aent under yesterday.
Cash corn was weak and of o cent
lower.
Oats did not present any weakness un
til'quite near tho close, when they wero
affected to n moderato extent'by tbo sur
roundings nnd eased off a fraction. In-
uctlvlty prevailed at most times. May
closed Ha4i of <i cent under yesterday.
Cash oatn wero steady, prices remaining
unchanged. •
Provisions.—There was no excuse for
strength, in product today and none ex
isted. The run of hogs was heavy and
tho prices showed declines. Speculatively
no encouragement was offered, tho grain
markctu casting a gloom over tho trade.
At tho close there was a moderate de
mand, which helped prices back In pome
detrreo, January pork closing 5 cents
under yesterday. January lard 2\i cents
under yestorday and January ribs 2«/4aS
cents under yesterday.

LAMSON BRO.’S GRAIN LETTER.
By Special wire to Lyon & James.
Chicago, Nov. 21.—Wheat oponed higher
and for a moment lt did have tlie appear
ance of on upward marlcot. Nows and
Influence, howover, a ere against It, nnd
regardless of heavy buying tho markot
gradually gavo way, sinking % of a cent
under yesterday's low point. The market
was hold steady at tho decline, but got
no help in the way of supporting orders.
The heavy recolpts both In tho North
west and at primary points exceeds thono
of lost year. Indlfferenco and also mo.i-
gro total clearances were the disappoint
ing foatures. Continued liquidation of
long wheat has been the special feature
and lt is quite evident that the wiro edge
of tho bull market haa boon taken oft
for tho present. Wo o not look for any
material advance this month.
There waa a fair trade In corn* but
prices ruled at a lower rango. Receipts
continue to be the factor. They nmount-
0 to 371 cars today. Tho estimated aggre
gate for tho wook will reach 3.000 cars.
Primary points foot up 547,000 bushels to
day. Local operators still fuvor the
short side, nn with but iittlo demand
from tho outside prices hnvo suffored a
loss, of % of a cent. The close was heavy
at near the low point of tho day. The
belief Is current that any cessation In
tho movement of corn will bo but tenv
pova.-y.
Provisions havo shown a little firm
ness, though prices have rsngod a trifle
under the close of yesterday. Thoro has
been no special feature. Packard havo
been somewhat mixed In thotr transac
tion* though In tho main sellers, while
commission houses bought. Hogs con
tinue heavy. Tho markot on hogs ruled
weak and 5 to 10 cents lower.
Lamson Bros, & Co.
GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Chicago, Nov. 21.—The bulls for a long
pull who have been holding their De
comber wheat changed nto May In large
numbers today, but many sales ol tho
former wore mado without an equiva
lent purchase of tho latter, thus causing
a perceptible widening of tho difference
In the p/lce betweon tho two. During tho
winding up minutes of tho session offer
ings beexuno remarkably free and an Im
portant decline took placo, an averuge
loss of l%al% conts for tho day being
shown by tho final quotations. May
opened from 60% to G0%, declined to G9%a%
where lt closed with tho loss sh-wn
above. Gash wheat was % a cent lower.
