Thoehlnf topic of conversation in police circles yesterday was the re duction of Captain Dyer" to the position of patrolnrin by the mayor. The latter otllcial was seen regarding the matter , and stated that the change was made in order to create more harmony , and in the inlurest of the ollleiency of the force. He wanted an olllcer who would sot a good example for the men , and one wlio would carry out his orders. When asked if Dyer had failed lo obey orders , ho declined to answer , and stated that ho had told enough for the public to know about the matter. Ho proposed to have men on the force who would act in sympathy with the head of the department , hut desired it distinctly nnder.-itood that he did not discharge Dyer , as the latter was simply reduced to the position of patrolman. Ho was asked if Dyer would remain on the force. Ho professed entire ignorance , as ho had not heard from the latter. In regard lo the matter of the sus pension of Olllcer Oleson nnd the promised investigation of that onto , ho said that Ok'ton had just tendered his resignation , and that it had been ac cepted. Olosen was subsequently seen and de nied that biieh was the case. Ho said that ho had tendered no resigna tion and did not propoio to do so. but if the mayor saw lit to "bounce" him , of course'ho had that privilege. Dyer told a story that was very simi lar in many respects to that told by sev eral of the men. Ho said that the mayor alleged that ho could not got along with the men , and that ho "un derstood that ho ( Dyer ) schemed to got possession of the sealskin cap voted to tlio most popular city olllcial at the Guards' ba/.aar. " Ilostatorttiiatwlieir U Q mayor llmt , requested him to accept the captaincy of the force ho declined , and that the chief executive later renewed the request and promised to raise his pay $10 per month. This had never boon' done. As to the causes that led to his dismissal for ho said that it was nothing else , as ho had told the mayor that ho would not again ac cept n beat he staled that the mayor had told him that ho seemed to be the friend of the saloon men and gamblurs. and talked with the wrong clasb of people. He asked the mayor if ho had iiot always done his duty , and what charges could ba preferred against him , but had been unable to got any satis- faclion. As the ease now stands it is impossi ble to ascertain just why the charge was madu , but thu public will be inter ested to see whether it is for better or worse. For the present Olllcer Ison- berger will fill the position thus va cated , and the men will exchange in rotation. Prof. Ilnmlin at roller rink to-night. A $2OOO Finger.
