managed to get outside and there stood his ground
with pistol in his hand, although no further damage
was done.
Capt. Miller went 10 the house of Superintendent
Chief Folk, and related to him the circumstances
above stated. Mr. Folk went to Mayor Powelrs
store ard Informed him how affairs stood. Both
officials proceeded TO the scene Of the revolt Wnen
they got there the dOorman the sole occupant
the others having gone on post duty, as supposel.
Before proceeding to the Station-House the Cniei
ordered out a detachment of the lt District Ponce
who were however directed to return to Their own
quarters before reaching the Sation-liouse OF the
Ninth Ward.
There appears to be two sides to this question:
The men charged with this revolt state that they did
Lot try TO hinder Capt. Miller from performing his
official duties that he gives them to understand that
be is on the side Of the Mayor, and tells the Superin-
tendent that he is in favor Of the new law and agrees
with him; also, while pretending to act under the
Mayor lie took his returns to the Chiefs Office on
Saturday morning and designated him by his new
title Likewise, that he gives the Mayor to under
stand that he is all straight" and then informs
the Chief to the opinions and actions of the men
attached TO their Station. This, they allege was
the cause Of disagreement between them and him.
The affair concerning Halt they say, occurred in
this manner: Policeman Mcclure aud him got into
a dispute about question they were discussing.
High words ensued and fight was the result.
These substantially the statements of the parties
interested. What the consequences viii be remains
10 seen.
Cant. Powers of the Fourth District Police refused
20 receive the orders of the Dupuy Superintendent
The latter thereupon handed set of similar orders to
Assistant Captain or Sergeant Wright, and ordered
him TO detail and command detachment of men
from the Eleventh Ward on the occasion OF the Gel
sbrat;on on Tuesday next.
The Mayor and Chief of Police are both anxious TO
have the police out that day. and appear to think
they can manage matters harmoniousy. The Mayor
intends to issue mis- orders and thus bring out the men
who are opposed to the law and who acknowledge
him as their head; while the Metropohtans viii obey
the orders of the Deputy Superintendent. Tney VIII
be marshaed under their respective officers as hereto
FORE 1t is probable that this arrangement will work
we'll at least such is the opinion Of those most likely
20 know.
