Private Meeting of the New Council

Private Meeting of the New Council.
At the request of Mayor Butlor, the new
council held an informal and private meet
ing at the city council rooms last evening
the object being to discuss the qualiti-
cations and fitness Of the various candidates
for city officers who have presented them
selves during the past few days. Unlike
the meeting of one year ago, this meeting
is said to have been entirely harmonious
the best of feeling prevailing. No one
attempted to draw party lines, and all APP
peared to have the interest of the city at
heart, all desiring the appointment of
honest. sober and competent men to the
various positions,regardless oftheir political
opinions.
1t has been known for several days past
that Deputy Marshal Miller and Police
man Rogers would not accept their
positions on the police force again if re.
appointed, as both had secured positions il
a more lucrative business. When Mayor
Butler was informed of this fact he ex
pressed himself as being sorry that they
would not remain on the force-and sale
both had given entire satisfaction anC
proven themselves to be efficient officers
which is undoubtedly the case.

before justice of the peace, to answer
to the charge of misdemeanor He APP
peared in obedience to the warrant.and
after investigation, was committed aud
ordered to give bond for his future mp
pearance. Ca ,tain Hewitt refused in
most emphatic language to give
bond, and drawing a pistol made
hJs way out of the court
room into the street. Here he was
joined by some of his friends, and
mounting their horses managed to make
their escape. The party passed through
Denisoa on the evening of Monday last
In the latter part of last wees Captain
Hewitt and party returned to Montague
county. The sheriff being informed
of this fact, summoned posse of eiti.
zens to aid him in making their arrest.
They found the party near Captain
ilSWltt lhIhi III lHs HpFtheass corner
Of Montague county. The sheriff or
dered the party TO surrender, but they
refused, and opened FIRE upon the posse.
The fire was promptly returned, and
firing kept up for some time by both
parties. Ben Labon. of the Hewitt
party, was killed outright, and Red
Labom and Captain Hewitt were NOR
tally wounded. OF the sheriff posse,
two were killed, but We could not as
certain their names.
