IT is a curious commentary on the conf
denco placed in the reform professions Of
the Administration that it is taken for
granted the offices in the Diplomatic and
Consular Service are to be distributed among
the hungry crowds as rewards. General A.
is mentioned as consul for this place and
Colonel B. for that as If there were not the
slightest doubt that the Consular Service is
10 be filled with Democratic strikers. And
not word of protest or denial comes from
the Presidents friends or from the Civil
Service Teformers. The consular and dip
lomaiic offices are by common consent re-
garded as political Offices to be distributed
for party service, and no thought is given
the present incumbents. And yet sincere
and logical reformer of the Civil.Service
will not stop when he has removed the
offices of the department clerks from
patronage mongers.
He will see that as ample safeguards be
put around our foreign offices as around our
domestic onos. He will SEQ that it is illogi-
cal to divorce the Civil.Service at home
from politics and leave the service abroad
open to the rapacity of each incoming ad-
ministration. true reformer Of the
Civil-Service will not adjust his actions
according to the letter merely of the
Civil-service law, but will be guided by
its spirit. And the spirit of that law Ger.
tainly is that efficient service should SO.
cure ilxity of tenure.
1t Is true that the Ciyil-seryice law
does not protect tho diplomatic and con-
sular offices from invasion, but the spirit
that rules in that law proclaims that con-
sulate efficiently administered is as secure

There is no more reason why political
striker should be made Consul at London
Paris, Berlin, Dublin or any other place
than that he should be given an 81, 800 plac,
Ia any Of the Departments.
1t Is reported that the President looks
upon himself as the paid attorney of the
American people, delegated to superintend
their business for four years. 1t is to bt
hoped that such Is his feeling, for it is Ger
tainly as commendable as it Is novel. How

EAST WASHINGTON.

CHARGED WITH BiGAMY.-George Il.
foyer, little black man about 33 years
old, was arrested yesterday on a charge Of
bigamy. The warrant was issued at the
instigaton of Chloe A. foyer, who claims
that he married her In Maryland six or
seven years ago. foyer was again married
last week. He claims that he thought as
he had not lived wi ith his wife for so long o
time and as she had been untrue to him, he
had right to remarry.
The DYNAMITERs To DE SUED.-The
dynamiter experimenters, who camo
near blowing up all East Washington,

parties whose houses were Injured
by the explosion. The house of Mrs.
Brown on N street was shattered very
badly and her daughter narrowly escaped
death.
DAMAGED ny FIRE.-Tbe residences of
Vincent Marshal and Samuel Mack, To-
Gated near Lincoln Park, were badly
damaged by fire last night.
'OFFENsIvE PARTIsANs."-A movement
is on foot to have several prominent bosses
in the Navy-Yard dismissed on the score
Of Offensive partisanship." 1t is alleged
that several of these bosses have not only
in the past discharged workingmen on ac-
count of their Democracy, but are on
record as having gone out of their way TO
cause the dismissal of Democrats from office
in other departments. Mr.. James Wilson,
in charge of the anchor shop, and Richard
Green Of the chain cable shop, are two
oftho bosses whose places arc being sought
after by faithful Democrats.

Mr.. DoRSIAN 3. EATON, president Of
the Civil-Service Commission, is moro than
pleased with the manner in which ap-
pointments are being made. He says that
vacancies are being regularly filled under
Civil-Service rules, and that there is not
the least sign of the examinations being
hampered or the Civil.Service rules being
disregaided. He believes that Congress,
when it made an increased appropriation
for tho work of tho commission, knew the
policy Of President Cleveland and expected
its work to 60 on. Mr.. Eaton thinks also
that the oflice-seekers have also como to
fair idea of what the President intends to
do and says that most Of them have gone
home disappointed. He thinks there will
doubtless be some removals for cause, but
not by any means enough to give places to
one-half Of those anxious to serve their
country. Partisan prescription, Mr.. Eaton
is of the opinion, will..not be renewed and
he also thinks that our politics are more
civilized than they used to be, and that
public opinion is more formidable. What
Mr.. Eaton says, it must be conceded, seems
to be borne out by the facts.

IN WITHDRAWING the Spanish, the MIC
araguan and the Hawaiian treaties from
the Senate, it was not the intention of tho
Administration to abandon them altogether.
The idea seems to DO to negotiate the new
treaties, the provisions of which will be in
conformity to the views of Mr.. Cleveland
and his Cabinet. Secretary Bayard's action
in opposing the treaties in the Senate was
not because he did not believe in such
treaties, but because he thought the in
coming Administration, which would have
to carry them into effect, should negotiate
them. Minister Foster, who negotiated the
Spanish Reciprocity Treaty, will, it is an
nounced, be retained at the Madrid Court.
he will leave in q few days for that post,
under instructions to negotiate q new treaty
with Spain that will carry out what the
present Administration ideas of what such
treaty should be.

Gold Coinage.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 10.-The order
from the Secretary Of the Treasury at Wash
ington to the Superintendent of the United
States branch mint to coin nothing but half
eagles, creates q great sensation among the
bankers and business men Of this city. The
following telegram, signed by John Mckee,
President of the San Francisco clearing
house, II. L. Dodge, President Of the Cham
Der Of Commerce, and J. B. Stetson, Presi-
dent of the Board Of Trade, has been sent
to the Secretary of the Treasury: "The
Superintendent of the mint here will pay
half eagles only in return for deposits Of
gold bullion. There is already q surplus of
this denomination in circulation on this
coast, and a further issue BY the mint will
greatly inconvenience the public. A larger
gold coin is needed. We respectfully re-
quest your order for the resumption of the
coinage and payment of double eagles in re-
turn for deposits of gold bullion at this
mint"
The late large arrivals here of Australian
gold bars and sovereigns which have been
received, have largely added to the plethora
of half eagles. Bullion depositors claim
the right to say to the mint what denomina
ton of coin thei- bullion shall be coined In.
Preference is given to the double eagle, it
being more convenient and more In accord
ance with the requirements Of trade on the
Pacific coast. The cost of coming one
twenty dollar piece is less than coming four
fve.dollar pieces, while the proportionate
loss from usage is also less. Another strong
argument against the small gold coinage is
that 1t ipterferes with silver circulation.
