HILLCOMESTDSTAY
A Man Who Was Jfever Known
to Give Up Anything He
Gets His Hands On.
HIS CHANCE TO AID BOIES.
He Is Xot Considered Likely to Eren
Think of Accepting.
TWO BOOMS A GREAT DEAL ALIKE.
Cleveland's Attitude Like That of a lull
Expected to Charge,
WHEN ALL THE HATADOKS WILL SKIP
rrnojt x staff corbespoxdext.'I
Chicago, June IT. It seems clear that
Hill has come to stay. He has never been
known to give anything up until it was
forced from him. lie held to the Governor
ship until the fruit thereof crew rotten and
left but the stem in this hands. He has
the ew York Cockney delusion, that
sooner or later everybody must come to
Xew York. His argument is, "I have car
ried Xew Yolk when Cleveland has not; I
beat Davenport and Miller, got more votes
than Cleveland, bad all JIugwumpery op
posed to me, was reviled in all their presses,
and every time I increased my majority.
Refuse to nominate me and I will give you
Cleveland and you will lose Xew York "
On the other band is a belief that Hill
cannot carry any ol the doubtful Western
States that he might not even carry In
diana, and that his nomination would drive
oer to Harrison the whole business class in
New York. Hill, by throwing the vote of
Xew York State for Boies, could get eternal
gratitude in the AVest and have a majestic
influence over Boies' administration; but it
is probable that he does not know enough.
An cample Worth Kenitmberinc.
If the testimony of the Minneapolis Con
vention has no influence upon these minor
candidates they would not believe though
the rocks and stones should rise up and
speak to them.
Mr. Horsey, of Maryland, said to roe four
weeKs ago: "Did you ever see such fatuity?
The Gorman men firmly believe that they
can nominate him." Mr. Gorman, how
ever, said to me two months earlier than
that: "My Senatorial friends say to me:
'It doesn't do you a bit of harm to be talked
about for the Presidency," "and he laughed.
I am told that in Gorman's delegation,
though he made it up himself, are several
men who covertly vant Cleveland. The
unit rule, however, works in the Demo
cratic party now just as it did in the Re
publican party under Conkling.
Robert Curtis, ot California, said to me:
"I suppose there are Jour or five anti-Cleve
land men in the California delegation, but
he unit rnle will force them up to the
scratch. So it is with Maryland, so with
Pennsylvania, and in Xew York the unit
rule not only compels the delegation to stand
bv Hill as long as he wants to stand or un
til he is beaten, but it allows a majority of
the delegation to vote it for any other per
son than Mr. Cleveland.
And fho made this unit rule? "Who but
Jilr. Cleveland himself, through Manning,
in the convention of 1881? Who does not
remember the struggle of Tammany and
Eome of the country delegates to be allowed
to vote independently, and how, with folded
arms, Mr. Manning set Fellows on to ad
dress the convention, which forthwith dis
ciplined Tammany Hall, saying in effect:
"Ye spalpeens, take your orders!"
Hill's Chance to Become a Warwick.
And now Mr. Hill could be a Warwick,
if he would remember that Warwick never
expected to be a king. He could cross over
to the West and say: "My young braves.
who have so newly come into the Demo
cratic party, we welcome enlistments and
converts. The same flag I have carried in
Xew York, of resistance to sumptuary laws,
has made Governor Boies my imitator in
Ion a. By nominating him, my platform
will be triumphantly vindicated."
But there are other things than mag
nanimity and generalship in politics. Rich
men want Presidental nominations. In
Xew York, Chicago,. and some few other
quarters in this country, a man with (6,000,
000 is as obscure as if he lived in a cellar,
unless he has something else than the
money can illustrate. The Presidency has
been a matter endeavored to be sold for a
good many years past, or since our material
prosperity, transportation, communications,
sacrifice of raw material, etc., have made
the first million irresistible to make millions
more.
In 1880-'S1 the rich men before the
convention required the fingers of both
hands to count them. We had Payne, Jew
ett, English, Flower, Tilden, Scott, etc.
If one cannot go and confer the Presi
dency upon a plain Westener, he can get
some credit at home by sustaining some
body there whose bumble bee is louder than
a. fog horn.
Something Worth More Than 3Ioney.
Politicians are learning that there is a
great thing called fame and public influ
ence, which is worth all the millions of all
the rich candidates put together; that it is
not made by dexterity nor by a single
victory, but is the growth of years; that one
supreme victory is requisite to give knight
hood, and Cleveland stands just there. Un
like these Bourbons -who are talking about
not voting for a Republican of 1880, Cleve
land threw himself upon the Republican
press, and instead of crying "I am a Demo
crat," he said: "Most of my life has been
passed reproving Democrats. I vetoed
their corrupt bills in the Buffalo Councils;
I welcomed new ideas, I thought civil ser
vice reform was good Democracy, and be
lieved that the purer we could make the
ballot the better chance we woald have
against wealth, prestige and prejudice."
He reached the Presidency,, and every
day for four years had a grand advertise
ment, like the rising of the sun. An undo
mestic creature before, he took, like Boaz,
his ward to wile, and maidenhood and
beauty set all the young women to smiling.
It became fashionable in the Democratic
party to marry. Since he has gone out ot
office he has proved that a bsby in the
house is a well-spring of pleasure. He has
handled himself well in his speeches, going
dangerously near too many of them, but
taking a reef in his speech for the last 12
months.
When Harrison went over to Xew York,
on the centennial occasion, and trusted to
sayinc something on his legs without fore
thought, Cleveland was ready for him with
a magnificent passage from the old sermons,
and for 12 months after that the name of
Harrison was never mentione'd in the Xew
York Xornial School.
A liall ri-lit Reminiscence.
The appearance of Grover in the ring re
minds me of a bull fight I saw only six
weeks ago in Spain. The gate opened, and
furious lrom the thrust of a lance by a con
cealed coward in the gate way, a bull entered
the arena, tail out, eyes wild, and looking
down the stretch he saw half a dozen mata
dors and started for them; every mother's
son of them went over the paling till the
bull had spent his strength by rushing
around the arena looking for that roan who
stuck him in the shoulder with abarb. They
are waiting now for Cleveland to spend his
strength on the first ballot. Thev are stand
ing very near the fence, and have taken the
precaution of nailing a strip along the said
fence to facilitate their escape over the top.
Over behind the lence they are remarking:
"When you arc a little blown we propose
to finish you up," and it may be that pres
ently wo'shall see two or three matadors
taokel the bull. Tbey must aot very qulokly
and la ooncert, however, or there will be
some ribs broken. ,
Mr. Gorman and Mr. Hill have a de
cided resemblance' to eaoh. other. Each has
oommenoed on the bottom round of poll
tics and has worked up a system effective
enough at last to control the State conven
tions and make delegations and eleotoral
tickets and force the unit rule. Each has
reached tho United States Benate, eaoh has
had help from Republicans. The Union
men in Maryland, who despise the Bourbons
and conservatives, prefer Gorman to the
stupid respectabilities who have learned
and forgotten nothing in 33 years.
Bill and Boles a Logical Combination.
The liquor interest in New York, which
aforetime was more than half Republican
and has plenty of Republicans yet in it,
sustain Hill as a reliable man against the
fanatics. It is a singular fact that just now
Hill and Boies fit right into the latest mu
tiny in the Republican party. The silver
question, the beer question, the Bunday
question, the World's Fair Sunday question,
the issue of individual liberty as against
publto opinion. These questions in Wis
consin, Illinois, Iowa and even in Ohio are
eminently current Hill pot hold of the
safest question in polities when he deolared
against the sumptuary laws; individual
breweries in Xew York have since been
sold for 510,000,000. Xo political fund to
equal this is known in'our politics. The
great breweries and their saloons, under the
system of the present day, with the brewer
bossing his customer, constitutes the most
formidable organization ever made to hand.
Xew York once went for the prohibitory
liquor law, and its veto by Seymour kept
him in everlasting remembrance by the
liquor interest, so that 15 years afterward
he received the Presidental nomination in
the eitv of Xew York and in Tammany
Hall.
The liquor interest in Boston was long
used by the Republicans until Governor
Russell, in the straits of his last campaign,
threatened to exterminate it unless it came
out form its bondage. In Iowa prohibition
has had a long trial, and though It there
meets the material interests of the infini
tude of farmers who wish to conserve their
labor in sobriety, the ever rising tide ot the
foreigner is against it, the young men care
little about it, and even the eocleslastics in
some cases are declaring that it leads to
hypocrisy, concealments and demoraliza
tion. In Kansas, also, which before the day
of soldier immigration was prohibition, with
a knife out the muttering of "Too much
Eolice" is heard. Mr. Boies would never
ave been known eastward, but for his
identification with this question.
No Intoxication In Several Places.
Xo country on earth has ever prevailed
against a human appetite, except where re
ligion wrote its Bible and 'menaced -with
death the imbiber. I was in Morocco, the
other day, where nobody can read, and
mere nobody but the dogs ot Christians
ever think of drinking. The highest form
of intoxication attempted is sherbet, so
strongly suggestive of the American drug
store. Xobody gets drunk, ail believe
there is no law," and nobody reads. Preach
ing goes on every day in the two
mosques of Tangiers. A man comes out at
stated hours and issues the monologue that
"there is no God, but God, and Mahomet
is his prophet." The women submit to have
only half souls, and are privileged never to
go to church, aud they are morally confident
that their sons will never be drunkards.
The Cleveland men, knowing their ma
jority, are disposed to use. little scruples in
accomplishing their ends. I heard a Cleve
land man from California say, yesterdav, to
a Xew York man neither of them dele
gates, but both influential, "By
want Harrison tactics, here; every man whb
has made his promise must be marked if he
flinches. We want the nomination on the
first ballot." Gath.
BBYAN REPLIES TO M'KINLEY.
Ilo Declares a Tariff should Be for Protec
tion and for Nothing; Else.
Ass Abbor, Mich., June 17. Con
gressman Bryau, of Nebraska, stopped here
this evening, on his way to the Democratic
Xatioual Convention at Chicago, and ad
dressed the Democratic Clubs of the Uni
versity of Michigan and a large number of
citizens. It was in answer to the speech
made at the Republican College Club's
banquet by Governor McKinley recently.
Mr. Bryan passed hurriedly oyer that part
of McKinley 's speech which attacked the
tariff policy of the Democratic party, and
then answered the remainder of it in detail.
In the course of his remarks Bryan said:
A tariff Is either needed for protection or
it is nor needed. If we can produce an article
as cheaply as it Is pcoduced abroad. who will
justify u tariff to protect ltt If we cannot
produce it as cheaply as It is produced
abroad, is not the purpose of the tariff to so
Increase the pi ice of tbe Imported article as
to enable us to compete?
As disproving the statement made by Mc
Kinley of this countrv's great prosperity
under protection, Mr. Bryan mentioned the
increased number ot failures in the United
States. The speaker declared that under
protection farm and home owners are de
creasing, while tenants are increasing, and,
in closing, he denounced protection as the
fruitful cause of many, it not most of the
evils from which we suffer to-day.

CHICAGO, June 17. The Printers' Union
of this city has issued a circular calling a
meeting for to-morrow to take steps to pre
vent the recognition of Mr. Flower by the
Xational Democratic Convention, and to re
buke him for his duplicity in his treatment
of the union printers of Xew York, when
he vetoed the State printing house bill,
alter a majority of both Houses adopted it
at the behest of the organized craftsmen of
the State.
While it is distinctly stated that the
meeting is of Democratic union men, the
circular asserts it is one, the object of which
meets with the hearty indorsement of all
union printers, of whatever political incli
nation. Harrison Flooded With Congratulations.
Washington, June 17. The President
has received hundreds of congratulatory
letters from all parts of the country, and
they still continue to pour into the White
House by every mail. It is utterly im
possible for him to acknowledge any consid
erable number of them, even in the briefest
way, and he hopes the writers will not
think he fails to appreciate their kindness
because they do not receive the answer he
would be glad to send were it within his

THE
ULSTER'S ULTIMATUM.
.Resolutions of Resistance Against
Any Irish Parliament Are
CARRIED WITH LOUD ACCLAIM.
Great Enthusiasm, Btligions and Political,
Sways the Meeting.
PRELATES-AND K0BLEMEN TAKE PART
Belfast, June 17. The great Ulster
Convention, to consider the negative side
of the home rule question, waa held In this
city to-day. Work was generally sus
pended, shops and houses being deoorated
with flags and bunting and many mottoes
expressive sf the Ulsterites' determination
never to submit to the rule of an Irish Par-
The oonvention is held in an enormous
pavilion erected 'for the purpose. About
10,000 delegates were present.
The proceedings were opened with a
prayer by His Grace, tho Pritnate of all
Ireland, after which the 46th psalm, "God
is Our Refuge And Our Strength," was read
by Rev. Nathaniel M. Brown, D. D., ex
Moderator of the General Assembly.
Robert McGeagh, President of the Ulster
Liberal Unionist Association, then moved
that the chair be taken by His Grace, the
Duke of Abercorn. The motion was car
ried, and the Duke was escorted to the
chair and addressed the convention.
Ths Duke Strikes the Popa'ar Chord.
The Duke of Abercorn, in his open ad
dress, described the meeting as one ot a sol
emn nature, deeply earnest in its motives.
It was animated by love of country, family,
home and religion. Above it all was ani
mated by a determination to live as an in
tegral portion of the'United Kingdom. The
meeting, he declared, was not a sham, but a
throbbing reality that would never accept
home rule. This declaration was received
with prolonged applause, the immense au
dience rising to their feet to better give vent
to their feelings.
The Duke added that the meeting was not
intended as a menace, but held out the hand
ol friendship to the rest of Ireland. The
people of Ulster entreated the rest of Her
Majesty's subjects not to make them the
victims of an unparalleled act of treachery,
aud warned the people of England, Scot
land and Wales that such an act would not
bring peace to Ireland, but would bring
strife, disgrace and ruin. Ulster's liber
ties, he held, must not be jeopardized by
the rash experiments of party politics.
There is a critical period before them, but
they have no cause for alarm.
The Tolce of Uliter In Resolution.
Upon the conclusion of the Duke's
speech Sir William Quartus Ewart, D. L.,
proposed the following resolutions:
First That we avow our fixed resolve to
retain unchanged our present position as an
integral portion of the United Kingdom, and
to protest In the most unequivocal manner
against the passage of any measure that
would rob us of our inheritance In the Im
perial Parliament, under the protection of
which our capital has been Invested and our
homes and rUhts safeguarded.
Second That we reoord onr determination
to have nothing to do with a Parliament cer
tain to be controlled by men responsible for
the ci lines and outrages of the Land League,
the dishonesty of the plan of campaign, and
the cruelties of boycotting, many of whom
have shown themselves the leady Instru
ment of clerical domination.
Third That we deolare to the people of
Great Britain our conviction that the at
tempt to set up snob a Parliament In Ireland
will Inevitably result In discord, violence
and bloodshed, suoh as have not been ex
perienced in this country, and annonnoe onr
resolve to take no part in the election or the
proceedings of snch a Parliament, the au
thority of which, should it ever be consti
tuted, we shall be forced to repudiate.
Fourth That we prctestasatnst this great
question, which Involves our lives, property
and civil life, being treatod as a mere side
issue In the Impending struggle.
Fifth That we appeal to those of our fellow-countrymen
who have hitherto been In
favor of a separate Parliament, to abandon
a demand wnloh hopelessly divides Irish
men, and to unite with us under tho Im
perial Legislature In developing the re
sources and furthering the best Interests of
our common country.
Ulster United Before a Common Danger.
Sir William Ewart, in moving the adop
tion of the first resolution, said love and
civil and religious freedom was the cause of
the meeting. All the Loyalists of Ulster
were welded together by a common danger
which caused all differences of creed and
party to be forgotten.
The resolution was seconded by Thomas
Sinclair, who declared that Ulstermen are
determined never to submit to the hateful
ascendancy of the children of revolution,
and would ignore the existence of any acts
passed by the Dublin Parliament
Lord Erne, Grand Master of the Orange
men, said they were there to proclaim their
loyalty to the Queen and their love of the
constitution; but if a Parliament is estab
lished in Dublin, there will be no place in
it for the loyalists of Ulster. The Ulster
ites would repudiate its authority and pay
no attention to its decrees. Cheers.
John Megaro, a tenant farmer of Bally
money, said the farmers would be more
likely to get an early and just settlement
of the land question from the imperial than
from any Irish Parliament; for unless land
lords are abolished without compensation
for disturbance, no Irish Parliament can
give such terms as the imperial Parliament.
All Outspoken for Resistance.
Mr. Andrews, President of the Ulster
Reform Club, declared on behalf of the Lib
eral Unionists that they would never elect
membeTS to a Dublin Parliament and would
never give their allegiance to snch a body.
Mr. Andrews concluded his speech amid the
greatest enthusiasm, the whole convention
rising and wildly x aving hats and handker
chiefs. He declared that "as a last resource
we are prepared to defend ourselves, and
we will do so."
The resolution was carried unanimously.
Rev. Dr. Lynd, a Presbyterian clergy
man, moved the adoption of the second
resolution. He denied that Ulstermen are
animated by bigotry. They are animated
by a areaa ot Bigotry, lor a Dublin Parlia
ment, when not dominated by a reckless
spirit of lawlessness, would be dominated
by a most intolerant and arbitrary priest
hood. This resolution was also unanimously
adopted. The third, fourth and fifth resolu
tions were then taken up in turn, and after
a number of -speeches, in which the speakers
reiterated the idea of resistance as voiced
by the previous speakers, all were adopted
by a unanimous vote.
A vote of thanks to Lord Abercorn was
passed, and the immense crowd of dele
gates and spectators then arose and joined
in singing, "God Save the Queen." The
volume of sound was tremendous. Upon
the conclusion of the proceedings of the
convention, the proper delegates proceeded
to the Royal Botanic Gardens, where an
out-door demonstration was held. At three
platforms resolutions similar to those
adopted at Jhe convention were offered and
adopted.

Babcelona, June 17. Under the au

Minister of War, who has made a' tour of

tary roads leading to the Swiss Highlands,
whence they will be continued by Switzer
land to the Italian frontier. In the event
of an Italian invasion the transportation of
French and Swiss troops to repel the enemy

THE DISSOLUTION SATE:
It Is Not Definitely Fixed, Notwithstanding
Rumors .to the Contrary.
London, June 17. In the House of Com
mons to-day, Right Hon. D. H. Madden,
Attorney General for Ireland, stated that
the total number of persons imprisoned
under the coercion act was 1,893. Of this
number only four remained in custody June
1. How little truth there is in the absolute
statement made in certain quarters that Par
liament will be dissolved June 28 was
shown to-day in the House of Commons
when Mr. Gladstone urged the Government
to announce the exact date of dissolution to
morrow in order to relieve doubt existing
and to enable the members to make iheir
necessary arrangements.
On Monday last Mr. Balfour announced
that the dissolution would occur, between
June 19 and June 25, but he declined to
state the exact day. That June 28 is not
the date decided upon, is shown by Mr,
Balfour's statement, and by Mr. Gladstone's
request for definite information.
i
WHAT HOME RULE WILL DO.
It Will Be to Ireland What the Magna
Charla Is to Great Britain.
LoNnoN, June 17. Lord Roseberry,
speaking in Kelso, Scotland, said that when
the details of the home rule measure were
divulged it would be found to be as firmly
settled as the Magna Charta. It would re
tain to the Imperial Parliament those
powers which the union was accomplished
to retain, and would also afford an oppor
tunity to establish a tribunal to which any
difference between the Imperial Govern
ment and the Irish Parliament might be
referred.
Home rule with such a tribunal would be
the means of cementing firmly the union of
the different sections or the British Empire.
It is a crime, he said, to hint at civil war
fare to accomplish political ends. The
Ulster Convention is intended, not to save
Ireland or Protestantism, but to save the
Government.
Germany's New Sunday Law.
Berlin, June 17. The Ministers of
Commerce, Education and the Interior have
issued a circular to the Prussian prefects
instructing them in regard to the operation
of the new'law regulating Sunday labor, tho
rules of exemption, etc. One curious para
graph orders the suspension of the sale of
sweets, matches, etc., by automatic, ma
chines during the prohibited hours.
PALACI0 GIVES UP.
Official News of the Dictator's Resignation
Received at Washington.
Washington, June 17. The Depart
ment of State was this morning advised by
cable from the United States legation at
Caracas, of the resignation of the President
of Venezuela. The situation remains quiet,
little or no excitement prevailing. The
executive authority of the State has been
assumed by the Federal Council until such
time as Congress shall be convened to elect
a successor to Palacin. It is expected that
Congress will meet for that purpose almost
immediately.
The New York Serald'n correspondent at
Barcelona telegraphs that a general en
gagement was fought near Gaucipati Tues
day between the Government troops and the
revolutionists. The loss was heavy on both
sides, but there was no decisive result. The
fighting was resumed the next morning and,
although the soldiers of Palacio made a
gallant stand, they were eventually de
feated with great slaughter. They left a
large nnmber of dead and wounded behind
them." The rebels, encouraged by their
sweeping victory, are now marching upon
the city of Bolivar, which they are sanguine
of rtcapturing from the Government,
McKlnley Not a Traitor.
Columbus, O., Jnnel7. Special One
of the Ohio delegates is out in a letter in
this evening's Columbus Dispatch, exonerat
ing Governor McKinley from the charge of
treachery at Minneapolis. Briefly, the
point this delegate makes is that McKinley
knew nothing of the scheme to spring his
name and attempt to defeat the President's
renomination. and did not know that Ohio
was going to cast a solid vote for him until,
running down the alphabet, the State was
called and cast 48 votes tor McKinley. The
rest is history.

Washington, June 17. The Demo
cratic majority of the House Committee on
Reform in the Civil Service has agreed
upon a report drawn up by Representative
Boatner, of Louisiana, upon the results of
the committee's investigation of the alleged
violation of the civil service law at Balti
more, i
The report quotes the Postmaster Gen
eral's statement that none of the persons
whose dismissal from office had been recom
mended by the Civil Service Commission
for violation of law, had been dismissed or
prosecuted, and gives at some length his
reasons for failing to act, according to his
testimony before the committee, which
reasons the committee characterize as con
tradictory. It says:
It is singular that tne Postmaster General
should have Indorsed the Idea that men
charged with violation of the civil service law
were entitled to notice before any inquiry as
to their guilt was entered upon, and that
they were entitled to the assistance of coun
sel In the Investigation.
The examination of the testimony taken
by tbe inspectors, and upon which tlie Post
master General claims to have acted, shows
that neither their conclusions nor his are
supported bytthe statements of tbe parties
implicated. On the contrary, the testi
mony reported by tho Inspectors con
firms and corroborates fully that taken
by tho Civil Service Commission.
Ths Inspectors Come in for a Roast.
Substantially the same facts admitted by
the parties before the commission were
sworn to before the Inspectors, and the se
vere strictures and criticisms which the In
spectors passed on tbe work of Mr. Roose
velt, in making the Investigation, are not
borne out by any facts stated by the wit
nesses on that examination.
Tne acceptance by the Postmaster Gen
eral without further Investigation or In
quiry of the report of the inspectors, which,
If proved, convicted the Civil 8ervloe Com
missioners of the grossest official miscon
duct and most dishonorable practices is. to
say the least, extraordinary. The replies of
the Postmaster General to many of the
qnestions propounded by your committee
weie evasive and utterly inconsistent with
the evidence ou which he claims to have
acted.
The report also comments upon the fail
ure of the Postmaster General to produce a
written opinion from the Assistant Attorney
General of his department that contribu
tions to the primary election, upon which
the case was based, did not constitute a vio
lation of law, and doubts whether any
reputable attorney would risk his reputa
tion by giving such an opinion. Further,
it says:
The garbled statement of the evidence
taken before the inspectors, furnished by
the Postmaster General, shows the desper
ate straits to which he is driven in tbe at
tempt to sustain the action of his inspectors
and Ills own.
The report holds that the accused em
ployes were actually guilty of a violation
of law, and that their excuses were "trans
parent evasions." It says:
No Excuse Fonnd for Wanamaker.
Had the Postmaster General been ablo to
show that he had been advised by tho De
partment of Justice that tbe law did not
apply to contributions for political pri
mal les; or had he frankly declared his be
lief that the men violated the law In ignor
ance of Its provisions, or that he was In
vested with a discretionary power not to
execute the law, and nadexeroUed his dis
cretion In refusing to remove these men,
there might have been some excuse for his
failure to do soj but, on tne ground stated
AT LATIMER'S.

by Mm, his action indicated cither a de
termination not to enfoice the law or negli
gence therein to the last degree.
We, therefore, find that the report of the
Civil Service Commission. recommending the
removal of certain employes In thePustofflce
at Baltimore, was. well founded: thnt the
postmaster at Baltimore has not removed
any of these parties substantially by direc
tion of the Postmaster General, that the re
port of the inspectors, upon which tuny were
retained, is unsupported by the evidence
taken by themselves aud indicates either
complete ignorance of the provisions of the
civil servlco law or a determination that In
this particular case their violation should
not be punished.
The Secretary of the Treasury frankly ad
mitted that his attention had not been
called to the report of tho Civil Service
Commission until tho resolution under
which the investigation in made wits
adopted, and that be had construed the
recommendations of the Civil Seivice Com
mission. In regard to the men in the ons
