WAsHINGToN, Oct. There has been,
since the resignation OF Mr.. Eaton as
chairman OF the Civil Service Commission,
considerable talk in regard 10 the other
members OF the Commission. and it has
been generally understood that they were
ready to tender their designations on the
shortest possible notice. 1t now appearu
that the flrst member who desired to leave
the Commission was DR.. Gregory, who
some weeks ago contemplated resigning,
but was induced to defer his action until
the result in Mr. E.ton's case was made
known. DR.. Gregory is a thorough Re-
publican and IA p possessed OF comfortable
future, so that the salary Of his Office is no
object, and it is beltyed that, had he fol-
lowed his own inclinEtioE, the President
would have given expression to his views
upon civil service reform in a letter ad-
dressed TO him rather than to his col
league, Mr.. Eaton.
Dr. Gregory had an extended interview
with the President Yesterday afternoon,

Eaton we're at the White House today,
and remained some time with the Presi-

resignation is not known, but 1t Is pre-
sumed that he did. Under the present
circumstances the reorganiz ltion Of the
Commission may be expected al an early
day, for Judge Tboman will also have to

who will be selected as the new members,
Though no formal application has been

has been made for three months, there has
been no improvement in prices worth

bas no aspirations or hopes in common

DUTIES ON EMpROIDER1Es.
Tho Importers Agree to a New System o
AppraIse nent OF Entries.

AppraIsement of Entries.
New YoRX, Oct. l.-Twenty.one OF the
leading importers Of Swiss embroideries
met this afternoon, TO propose reorgani'
zation OF the present method Of levying
duties on these articles. Among the Phil.
adelphians was Loeb & Schoenfeld and
Einstein & Hirsch. Jacob Steigermyer, a
resident OF Switzerland, and the largest
dealer in embroideries there, presented
the proposed Encouragement Of duties, and
q committee Of five was appointed to go to
Washington and urge its adoption by Sec
retary Manning. The basis is practically
minimum dutiab!e value. II for any
cause the price OF stitches goes beyond
twenty-eight Centimes for GA goods or
thilty.two centimes goods, the Govern
ment will collect duty on the stitch price
as reported by the consular returns. The
merchants pledged themselves to furnish
stitch schedule with their invoices, and
cartons also, il they are demanded by the
consuls. This basis is made the easier
by the fact that the merchants OF st. Gall
have formed a union which names the
figures given as the minimum rate for the
year ending August Is. 1t is expected
that the union will continue on the same
basis. Goods shipped since August 10
will be assessed at the rate given, but
those invoiced prior to it and now in the
Custon-house or public stores will been
tered at the old rates.
Mr.. Loeb said that the present system
OF ievying duties on cotton embroideries
and lace was unjust to all importers alike,
inasmuCh as there was often wide did
ercnce in the valuation OF Custom.house
appraisers in the same kind OF goods. He
continued: st Is impossible to estimate
a pattern OF embroidery or lace within 10
percent Of It's market value by merely
looking at it. There are not two experts
in hundred who would agree as to the
value of the same pattern. Some merchants
got their goods appraised high and others
low, and the system is therefore wrong
one. Under the old ruling, embroideries
bought in Switzerland on stitch basis
and invo!ced here on the same basis have
been appraised in the same manner with
10 percent added for manufacturers profit.
The Government bad regular counters OF
stitches, and as the Consul in Switzerland
rendered monthly reports OF the market
price Of stitching there fraud was impos-
sibie. Now, however, ali this is changed
and the valuation Is left entirely TO the
discretion Of the appraisers and the special
agents. D - ..I.

New YoRK, Oct 1.-Governor Hill and
his new associate on the Democratic State
ticket, General Edward F. Jones, left the
city for Albany together to-day.
General Jones, with his sun-burned face
and white military mustache, was the
hero OF the hour. He was hand.shaked
and congratulated by all his friendS
There were no Democrats in the Hoffman
House that would say that General Jones
was weak man for the ticket. Never
theless, there were some who took pains
To explain carefully that his name would
be power among the farmers and the
soldiers. AS for General Jones himself
he was confident Of his strength. He sat
in the Governors room most OF the morn-
Ing. When asked II he was ready to ex.
.ert himself actively for the ticket, he re-
piled:

"What Is your opinion Of the ticket2"
II regard It as one Of the strongest that

"Will you mention the approximate
majority by which you expect to carly the

"Oh, that would be folly. Still I think
we can carry the State by sufficient ma
jorty to demonstrate positively whether
this Is Republican or Democratic State.
The Republicans have, 1t Is true, very
ticket, but 1t hiss its weak
points"
"How will the separation Of the Inde.
pendonts from the Democratic fold affect
the success Of your ticket?"
"You must remember that the 1nde.
pendent vote is primarily Republican aud
not Democratic. It came over TO Us last
year from principle, and, while l might
question the judgment otthose hoboth d,
speaking generally, l respect the principle
which animated them"
"You do not share the sentiments OF
some Democrats that the party is better
off without the Mugwumps2"
"0h, no; / feel very friendly toward
them, considering them as do"
"But you could not well have any other
feeling for them just now, could you?"

TuR Massachusetts Republicans did
