WASHINGTON, November 2.-The
Board Of Civil-Service Commissioners,
Messrs. Eaton, Gregory, and Thomsn,
held final meeting as a board Satur-
day evening, and Messrs. Eaton and
Thoman then retired from office under
the terms Of their designations. Mr..
Gregory still remains in Office, and at
present has the responsibility Of the
enforcement Of the civil-service law
resting upon his shoulders alone. 1t is
not yet definitely known when he will
be superseded. At the closing meeting
Saturday afternoon the Commission
spread upon It's minutes resolution
I" that the commissioners wish TO ex-
press their high appreciation of the
earnest, honest, and efficient service
rendered by all those serving as subor-
dinate TO them, and also to memb ers Of
the different boards Of examiners, whose
work has been as onerous TO themselves
as it has been helpful to the Commits
sion and advantageous to the public
service"
The constitution Of the new Board Of
Commissioners still remains q matter Of
speculation. The name Of Controller
Chaplin, Of New York, it is stated, has
been presented TO the President for one
Of the places on the Commission.
Mr.. Eaton did not 60 into the rooms
OF the Commission this morning. TOT
reporter he said he was not to hold

the Presidents determination and abili-
~ 10 enforce the law, and thinks things

Washington during the winter, and will
be ready to render any service he can
10 the new Commission.

among the Virginia workingmen living
IN Washington that the Republican
legislative ticket in this city was put mp

the Knights Of Labor had nothing to do

BIZ the President Of the United States
Of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
The American people have always
abundant cause to be thankful to the
Almighty, whose watchfal care and
guiding hand have been manifested in
every stage Of their national life. Guard
ING and protecting them in the time Of
peril, and safely leading them in the
hour Of darkness and Of danger, it is
fitting and proper that a natien thus IA
vored should, on one day in every
year for that purpose expressly
appointed, publicly acknowledge the
goodness of God, and return
thanks to Him for all His gracious
gifts. therefore /, Grover Cleveland,
President Of the United States Of
America, do hereby designate and set
apart Thursday the 26th day Of Novem-
Der instant as day Of public thanks
giving and prayer, and do invoke the
observance Of same by all the people
OF the land. On that day let all secu-
lar business he suspended, and let the
people assemble in their usual places Of
worship, and with prayer and songs of
praise deyoutly testify their gratitude
TO the giver of every good and perfect
gift for sll that lie has done for us
IN the year that has passed, for
our preservation as united ma
ton, and for our delverance from
the shock and danger Of political con-
vulsion; for the blessings Of peace, and
for our safety and quiet while wars aud
rumors Of wars have agitated and
afflicted other nations Of the earth /; for
our security against the scOurge of pes
thence, which in other lands has claimed
its dead by thousands and filed the
streets with mourners for the plen-
teous crops which reward the labor Of
the husbandmsn and increase our ma
tons wealth, and for the contentment
throughout our borders which follows
in the train Of prosperity and album
dance and LET there also be on the day
thus set apart q reunion Of families,
sanctifed and chastened by tender
memories and associations, and let the
social intercourse Of friends with
pleasant "reminiscences renew the
ties Of affection and strengthen
the bonds of kindly feeling,
and LET US by no means forget, while we
give thanks and enjoy the comforts
which have crowned our lives, that
truly grateful hearts are inclined TO
deeds Of charity, and that kind and
thoughtful remembrance Of the poor
will double the pleasures of our condi-
tion and render our praise and thanks
giving more acceptable in the sight Of
the Lord.

BALTIMORE, November Mayor
Hodges took the oath of Office to-day
and entered upon his duties. In his
inaugural he said he should conduct his
Office on business principles. AT the
proper time all necessary reforms may
be made. Though elected as Demo-
crat, be said be should strictly observe
the rule that public office is a public
trust, to be used for the public good !;
but it must be distinctly understood
"that it is my settled belief that the
voters Of a successful political party,
when honest and capable and possess
ing the confidence OF their fellow-citi-
zens, deserve to have seats at the gov
ernmental table. In order that there
may be no room for misunderstanding
or disappointment, desire to announce
that that rule will govern me in making
appointments to public Offices"
