a " Ciyn Service Complaint.
WASHINGTON, July lst.-A complaint has
been lodged with the Civil Service Com
mission by Owen kellar, of Caldwell, Ohio,
to the effect that having been certified by
the Commission for appointment TO a 81 200
position in the Treasury Department, and
having been notified by mail that the posi-
ton awaited his arrival, he came to Wash
ingtOn. and upon reporting in person the
appointment was refused him. Mr. kellar
saws the reason for the refusal was none
other than that he is Republican. Judge
Thompson, the Democratic member of the
Commission, is absent, but the remaining
members have taken the complaint under
consideration, and it is probable that
letter will be addressed to the Secretary
Of the Treasury, asking for his statement
of the facts in the case. This is the usual
course in such cases. General Chenowith,
First Auditor of the Treasury, to whom
kellar was assigned to duty, said to-day
that he had refused to accept keilar on the
ground chat he was personally offensive TO
Democrats in the district where he lived !;
in fact he had received letter from Rep
resentative Warner, protesting against Mr.
keliars appointment. He (W9rner) de-
scribed Mr.. Kellar as a man who had been
active in the support of Mr.. Taylor, who
ran against Mr.. Warner for Congress. He
also said that kelar had taken every OPP
portunity to insult the Democrats of the
district.
