ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH;
NEW YORK, October A-Jake Schaefer's
letter on the billiard tourney negotiations has
stirred up a heap of debate among the local
cracks. George Slosson got out gun loaded
with billiard statistics and devoted himself to
riddling Schaefer's claim that he was superior
to Slosson at the cue. Slosson showed the
record, which demonstrated that he won the
tournament of April &c, 1885, in Irving Hall, and
that the other players finished in this order:
Schaefer. DAILY, Sexton and Joe Dion.
Il beat Schaefer Is out of the 29 public
matches we played" Slosson added, land
won four out of the six cushion carrom
matches we played Schaefer's claim to the
championship is absolutely without any basis
To be champion he must have some emblem
that is now subject to challenge. There is
no such emblem in existence in this country.
Consequently Schaefer can only claim to be an
ex-champion. and Sexton, DAILY and myself are
all ex-champions. That's how the champion
ship question stands, and no bluff or argument
will alter the facts. So far as Schaefer's offer
to play is concerned, will say that will play

CAUSE IN THEIR POLITICS

Some of the so-called civil service re- formers, following their harmless fancy of rearing airy castles, are protesting to believe that General Harrison will prove himself an ardent advocate of the sham fetich to which they have been industri- ously burning incense during the admin istration that is nearing its close. They are congratulating themselves that the president-elect is disposed to make no removals without cause, and that fitness rather tEan party service will be the es- sential discriminating test of merit for the appointment or retention of persons in office.
 We would suggest to these enthusias- tic but misguided idealists that perhaps the politics of the present otfice-holders may be regarded by General Harrison as sufficient cause for their removal. It has been so during administrations that go back beyond the memory of living men, and it is more than improbable that the present generation will witness a change We are glad to see that some of the persons who have been appointed to office by President Cleveland like our own postmaster, for in stance-are not disposed to put General Harrison '' in a hole ' by any vulgar or vain desire to remain in office under republican administra- ton. They saw the propriety of their republican predecessors making room for them when, after twenty-four years of wandering in the desert, their polit- ical Moses in the person of President Cleveland led them into the promised land of office, honor and emolument. And they are not disposed now when they have made the good fight and lost to stand in the way of the .victors reap ing the spells for which they fought and bled. The true democrat will step down and out as gracefully and coWplaisantly as he stepped up and in when he heard the joyful news that he had found favor in the eyes of President Cleveland. Fol him the post of honor under a republican administration is the private station.
 Under General Harrison there should indeed. be no removals without cause but we submit that democratic atfilia- tions will be regarded as an all sufficient cause. And no true democratic believer will wish it otherwise, however much the lachrymose mugwump may water his protest with crocodile tears.

THEY NEVER SPEA k.

The Hartford Col1rant is VeXing its grandmotherly old soul over the distress ing inaccuracy of the New Haven Union in regard to the condition of business in the legislature at Hartford. After show ing, from the actual figures, that the present assembly is ahead, at this stage, of the sessions of 1887 and 1885, and up to that of 1886, the Courant says: This demonstrates that the present session is not only up to the best on record, but that it already has twice as much busi- ness as the session of 1887. The further criticisms of the Union correspondent are as far away from accuracy as the statements here corrected. But if Sum- day correspondent had to depend upon solid facts, the Sunday journals would speedily cease to exist.
 The Courant should possess itself in peace. Truth and the New Haven Union never speak as they pass by-they have long since cut each others ac' quaintance. He who would look for truth-or accuracy-in the columns of the Union would go on wilder hunt than did old Diogenes when, armed with lantern, he went to look for an homes, man. The people of New Haven are better posted than the Courant-they have long since ceased to look upon the Union except in the light of free lance in the realms of fiction. If perchance 6 gleam of truth should stray into its sane tum it would quickly vanish when i came in contact with the able-bodied bu nimble Ananias who is it's presiding genius.
 Truth in the columns of the New Haven Union is a rarer gem than hon esty in sheol.
