THE CIVIL SERVICE BILL IN THE SENATE.

lBY TELEGRAPH TU THE TRIBUNE]
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Ihe Senate seemed to
have ne,ched tho point for action upon the
amendments TO the Civil Service bill, if not upon
the bill itslf, when Senator Williams moved for
an executive session to-day. Senator Edmunds
opposed it, but was defeated on q yea
and nay vote most of the Demo-
Gratis voting in tho Affirmative. Senator
Vests speech was lurid arraignment OF
the Republican party, coverngii It's whole record and
dealing with everything relevant and irrelevant to
the subject in hand which ifls occurred since tho
war.
Senator Morgan male "a short but sensible speech
in support OF the bil and Senator Call made an ar
gunent ag inst it. basing his opposition upon cou-
stitutional grounds. Senator Barrow q thu-y0.ced,
baldheaded young man. who succeeded the lats
Senator Ill., also opposed the bill Senator Pendle-
ton proposed an amendment striking out the pro-
vision which requires that admission TO the public
ser, ice shall be the lowest grade. and in effect
perluitting entrance from private life 20 any grade
in the service after competitive examination. This
feature If the bill, is wei known, has been tho
subject If much deuunciatIon by Democrats. who
claimed that it would establish "A Repubhcau
MONOPOLY of the higher offices and permit
members OF their party to enter only at the lowest
grades. The provision not IN the bill as
originally GRATED by Nr. Eaton, and IL Is known
that he regards II OF no practical moment what
ever. Its noyal may allay some Democratic oppo-
sItIou.
An interesting feature of the debate was strong
SD ech Tor the bill by Senator Dawes, who has had
q rival bill before the Senate. 1t Is now expected
that the PendletOn bill Will be passed tomorrow.
