POLICE REORGANIZATION.
The Work Commenced I'm Earnest

Major Dye Assumes Command O,
the Force.
The reorganization of the Police Depart.
ment has at last commenced in earnest.
On Saturday afternoon the Commission :
ers accepted Major Brooks resignation. to
take effect April l, and yesterday morning
Colonel Dye entered upon the discharge of
| his duties.
On the same day Lieutenant Eclslofr was
requested to resign by order of the Com
| missioners, but declined to do So and wrote
note to the superintendent, in which he
| referred to the fact that he had been on tho
force for twenty-one years; had been born
ana raised in the city; had raised family
of ten children here, and had always per-
formed his duties as an officer to the best of
his ability; for all OF which reasons he
thought he ought not to be dismissed with
out hearing. Before this letter had been
delivered, however, the board passed an
order dispensing with his services from
date.
There has mover been anything said
| against Lieutenant Eckloff as an official or
us man that reflected In the slightest dc.
gree upon his integrity or honor, and tho
sole cause of his removal is that he was un-
conscious of the things that were going on
under his command or was not strong
enough to prevent them Lieutenant

The BaIk Lime BilIiard Tournament.

The balk-line billiard tournament which
began at Chicago last Monday has devel.
opcd some remarkable games. Vignaux,
the famous French expert, in the first game
made run of 16l, playing with great dar-
ing as well as precision. He has been easily
victor in every contest. A notable feature
of the tournament has, however, been the
wonderful play of Schaeffer, who seems to
have more than recovered the brilliant
dexterity for which he was noted. On
Tuesday evening he made 205, playing
against Wallace, the largest run on
record; on Thursday evening he made
153, playing against Morris. Sexton, who
twice defeated Schaeffer in $1,000 side
matches, won close game with Dion by
run of 1G6. On Saturday evening Sexton
and Schaefler met and both played wonder
ful billiards. The game was one of the
1ace-horse order from tho start to stop.
Sexton showed the most speed first, but
Schaelfer, in the seventh inning, made a
run of 1872 and led by 1853 TO 52. He fol-
lowed with %, SO, II and 81 in consecutive
order, which took tho score TO 200; Sexton.

60, making 276 points in three innings
thereby scoring 357 to Schaeher's 325.
Schaeiler took fresh hold in the twenty
first with so, followed in tho next two
innings with 30 and 90, and ran out with
% in the twenty-ffth inning, thus closing
the most extraordinary contest. Score

THE ROMANTIC NICKEL,
II Makes Much Trouble for the
TreHsury's Secret.Seryice Officers.

a great deal has been said about the new
nickel pieces, but 1t remains for THE CRITIC
to make the announcement of startling
discovery made by one of its reporters this
afternoon, which is convincing evidence
that the new pieces are playing tho role o.
heavy villain on our monetary stage.

cret-Service officer, " that arrests of parties

as tive-dollar gold pieces have been made
by our men in California, st. Louis, Pitts
burg, Chicago, Louisiana, Nashville, New
York, Boston, Kansas City, Dubuque aud
other places?''
'Well, no, F." responded THE CRITIC.
But we have" continued the officer,
"and complaints are being received every
day from all parts of the country. Some
district attorneys are in
Doubt AS 10 the Law
in such cases, but several have already
found indictments against tho guilty
parties"
"How does the Solicitor of the Treasury
regard the matter?" queried THE CRITIC.
"Oh, he has no doubt as to the act of
gliding the pieces being one of counterfeit
ing and that all persons possessing such
gilded coins are liable at any timo to be
compelled to show honest intentions in
their possession"
"Will the fact that the word cents is
to be added to the new pieces decrease the
habit of gildng?'
No, not materially. The ignorant, and
many intelligent persons, will still accept
them ms fve-dollar pieces, as the reverse of
the piece very similar to tho gold coin"
From Bad TO Worse.
Another Treasury official said the nickel
pieces were grave mistake and that they
should never have been made. "Why,D
he said, "men are paying premium for
them and the records of the Secret Service
will show their purpose in doing this.
They were designed to perpetuate some-
bodys memory and they will do it. The
penitentiary will soon be full of living
monuments to the greatness Of their in
