SENATOR HOAR.s SPEECH,
Ine Omcial Records DisprOve HI
statements as to the Department o
Justice.
BUT FEW CHANGES IN THAT DEPARTMENT,
AND THOSE IN POSITIONS NOT UNDER THE
CIVIL SERVICE LAW.

CIVIL SERVICE LAW.
Inc official register of the Department of JUS
lice SHOWS that the statement of Senator Hoar,
,naue at the republican state convention OF
massachusetts, yesterday, that 'every faithful
servant of the department, from the law clerk
oown TO the charwoman," had been removed
IN violation of the civil service law, is not true.
Inc only changes made by the Attorney Cen
eral were In his personal staff, and even in these
conndential places, where it is conceded that he
nau perfect right to make changes, many of
Inc OLD employees have been retained. Not an
employe whose position is within the classified
service mas been changed. A reporter of THE
STAR was given free access to the official regis
1t who desired.
The only new appointments made were one
SOLICITOR general, Mr.. GOOde, of Virginia; one as
sistant attorney general, in which case a demo
GRAFT was dismissed and another democrat put
aminers and special agent, Major Strong. All
OF these are confidential places. In the case of
the examiners there were originally seven. Mr..
Garland reduced the number to four, appointed
two new men and retained two old ones

torney Generals, retains his position, and will
continue to do so. The same is the case with
Chief Clerk Clay, Law Clerk Hodges, law clerk
ana examiner of titles Alex. J. Bentley. The
pardon clerk is still there. The stenographer
was requested to remain, but could not be in
dpced to do SO. Discussing Clerk Ewing still re-
tains his place. Besides these there are 8 fourth
class clerks, third class clerks, 2 second class
clerks, first class clerks, z copyists, 1 tele-
assistant messengers, including Coleman, who
has been there since 1865, 2 watchmen, 3 fire.
men, 2 elevator operators, 5 charwomen and l
laborer, who will not be disturbed. This includes
all the employees, except laborers, who were
removed for cause. Not a charwoman has been
removed, nor will there be if they perform their
duties properly.
Among the third class clerks is colored man
who has been there for some years, and another
colored man holds 81. 200 clerkship. All these
facts were open to Mr.. Hoar, IT he desired infor-
nation before making the statement.

New YORK, March 12.--The Medical
Record of the 18th will contain the following:
Since the last bulletin of the Medical Record
was issued consultation has been held on
Grants case, attended by Doctors Fordyce
Barker, j. H. Douglass, Henry B. Sands and
George F. Shady At that time.
March s, the general condition of
the distinguished patient was quite feeble,
although he was able to- walk across his Ii
brary and seat himself in chair for the nec-
essary examination of his throat. The latter
was possible without giving him pain. 1t
was found the liberation of the posterior pill
lar of the right fauces had extended, and
that the perforation at the base of the ante
rior pillar had increased so that its internal
edge was converted into a small bride of
tissue. The entire soft palate was
uniformly redeemed and swollen and
the right posterior border of the tongue was
ipdurated from point just in front of the
anterior pillar of the fauces as far back as
could be reached by the finger. The gland
under the right angle of the jaw was still en-
larged and hard, but quite movable. The
pain in the ear had entirely disappeared, and
there was no special difficulty in swallowing,
neither was there any marked salvation.
During Thursday the patient was In a rea-
sonably comfortable state, his temperature
was normal and his pulse regular, but was
suffering somewhat from the effects of in
somnia. His digestion is good and semi
solid food taken easily and with reasonable
relish He suffers no pain. In the face Of
all these general symptoms the local difficulty
