Civil Service.
THE PRESIDENT ASKED TO MAKE NEW CLAss1FI-
CATION.


CATION.
The civil service commission has asked the
President to direct further classification of en-
ployes in the government service, SO as to define
more accurately the classes affected by the new
rules. The legislation bearing on this subject Is
so confused that some Well-de1ned lines of grada-
ton and classification are needed, and the matter
has, therefore, been referred to the President for
action. At present the graded classes In the de-
partments stop at 5000, though there is grade OF
s72O lady copyists, who do the same work as is
Of $500. To correct such Irregularities as this
uniform system Is desired The commission Is
also considering the question Of competitive ex-
amfnattOnS for promotion, matter on which
some difference OF opinion prevails among those
who have the same ends In view. The Presl-
be included with the higher grades of clerkships,
and he will probably SO Instruct the commission
ers. He has, however, asked an opinion OF the
may be no doubts In the matter. The commits
sioners made no mention Of the grades OF en-
ployes below $500: Chief Clerk Lyman returned
days, spent In conducting examinations.
WHAT MEMBER OF THE CABINET SAYS.
In conversation, this morning, on the subject of
a Redistribution Of government employees SO as
to bring within the operation of the civil service
rules employees receiving less than 5000 per annum,
member OF the Cabinet said: 1.-THE civil service
clude all employees excepting laborers and work.
men," The difficulty nowWill be to decide whether
or not messengers and watchmen are to be classed
as iaDOrerA- The request OF the civil service
mission for new classification OF employees
receiving less -. than $500 appears to have been
suggested by the recent appointments of openers
ana packers maze by Appraiser ketcham In New
York. In speaking OF these appointments Mr..
Eaton, of the civil service commission, said:
in this case, as charged, because the men APP
pointed received but $3.50 per annum Whether
or not the President will decide to extend the
operation OF the rules to this class OF employees
remain to be SEEN"

The Ohio Senatorship.

PENDLEToN WILL PROBABLY BE HIS OWN SUCCESS
SOR.
Now that the result OF the Ohio election is set
tied, the talk is about the coming Senator. Well
informed Ohio democrats generally agree that
Senator Pendleton has a very fair prospect of
succeeding himself. They say the continual abuse
OF the Cincinnati Enquirer, and OF the Bookwalter
faction, has produced a reaction In Pendleton's
favor that will aid him materially In his canvass
for the succession. "There is" said an Ohio dem
Ocrat to-day, ''but one source Of danger for PEN
dleton. II Thurman is put lRtO the race, he will
walk away with the senatorship. The democrats
feel that they have not treated Thurman fairly
and there Is a disposition among many of them to
send him back to the Senate. II he does not enter
the senatorial race. you may put 1t down that Ohio
