The Civil Service COmmissi0n's Re-
port.

WASHINGTON, September 29.-The
Civil Service Commission has been
busily engaged for some time past in
a revision Of the rules and re. u atoms
relating to the civil service and within
short time it is probable thafa num-
Der OF important notifications OF the
existing rules will be submitted to the
President for his formal approval. Toe
commission has changed the construc-
ton heretofore placed on the law and
rules relating to the appointment Of
soldiers to the classified service by the
issue OF the following order:
at is directed that upon any reQuisi-
tons being made by an appointing
officer for elegibles to fill any clsssi-
fled civil tervice, the certifying eff or
ehall certify from the eligible register
from which the eligihleS are to be
drawn, the names Of all persons who
have claim to preference Of appoint
ment under section 1754, United S ates
Revised Statutes; provided, however,
that II there are upon taid register the
names Of more than four persons
who have a claim for preference,
on'y four of them shall be cert fed in
the oroer Of their grading. If upon
the register of the State entitled to the
appointment tn re are not preferences
claiming eligibles enough to fill the
certitication, or ii there is upon
said register the names OF no prefer
ence claiming eigibles, the certify
ing class will complete the making of
the certihCation by taking the names
of preference claiming elioibles from
the registers of ether States, taking
care to select from such State register
in the ordtr of the right Of each
Stits to appointment under The APP.
portionment authorized to be made
by the commission. If upon the
register of no State entitled to the ap-
pointment, there is the name of pre-.
ference claiming eligible, and the
name of such an eligible appears up
on State register, the quota Of which
has been filled, the name Of such
claiming eligible ehsll be certified
Iu explanation of this action of the
commission Mr.. 0berly today said
that section 1854 of the Revised Stat
utee, which was in force at the date of
the passage of the civil service law,
gave the preference ia appointments
to persons disabled in the military or
naval toces of the United States.
Section Z OF the civil service acl pro-
vided that no person thould be en-
p'oyed or promoted in the classified
letvice until he had passed an exam
ination or had been shown, TO be ex-
empt thereirom, But it-also provides

w1GarNs As A MISSIONARY

As we write it is earthquake day,
but our desk remains steady at PIES
ent, and the plaster upon the walls
still retains its hold, and we expect
that when the midnight hour strikes
quiet and order will still prevail and
the doomed cities Of the South retain
their steadiness and equanimity. Mr..
Virgins has apparently become
alarmed at the damage bis earthquake
has done before the day appointed for
its ravsges, for he moved its horrors
down among the folks In South Anne =
lea, in communication he wrote to
the Atlanta Constitution, and In his
general retraction published in the
New York Herald, Man must have
obtained great control over lture
when he can move an earthquake
away from wait district where earth
quakSs are not popular, but it is
bard upon the country to which
the visitation is moved. With
all his explanations and rstractio as,
Mr.. Virgins did not withdraw the
"etsraal smash" he predicted; he only
removed the scene OF its operations.
Ia both the communication men,
Iioned above, he still speaks OF "the
earthquake" OF the ooh. AS a pre-
dictor Mr.. Virgins is plainly failure,
but, II we may judge by the amount Of
piety he has brought into activity
among the colored people, he would
evidently makes first-cla's missionary
for the interior Of Africa. We wish
The missionary societies would unite
in sending him there, deeper in the
interior than Livingstone ever went,
so deep thst even Stanley could not
tiud him. Civilized life can dispense
with Virgins and his atrociously play
full predictions.

MEMPHIS DAILY APPEAL--THURsDAY. SEPTEMBER 30, 1886

that no preference right conferred by
the section of the statute already
quoted should be taken away.
Taking the two sections together,
the commission concluded that when
person showed that he had been
honorsbly discharged from military
service he had right to be preferred
in the cartifi alton for appointment to
civil Office in the classified service.
When this applicants name came be.
fore the appointing officer, thst officer
had no discretion, but under the law
was compelled to appoint him. There
was no competition, and the competi.
tive idea was destroyed.
Thereto the commission had come
to the conclusion that the two sta utes
taken r. gsther established two classe,
OF competitors-honorably discharged
soldiers and sailors ard persons who
had not been 80 discharged, and the
construction above given was placed
on the law. It's effect would be to
cause the names of four soldiers to he
certified at once to the appointing Off
Ger, thus affording fair competition
between them. 1t has re.established
the idea Of competition in that class
OF eligibles and destroys the discrim-
ination against other persons whose
names were sent up with that of the
soldiers, but who stood no chance of
appointment and were credited
with one fertilization. Commissioner
Oberly also said that the c)m-
mission has under discussion a
new rule for the regu alton of
promotions in the classified service.
The law positively forb;d5 promotion
in that service, unless the person pro-
NOTED has passed an examination.
There bad never yet been an attsmpt
made to PROV de euch ruler. The
commission had in contemplation
set of rules to govern promotions
which would he applicable u li!ormly
to all Department.. Ole of lhem
allowed the krad of a bureau to re.
quest the examination OF any pars
who had been appointed without ex.
animation, and h d been promoted
since the civil service law md gone
into effect. A fsilure to reach a re-
CURED standing ia this examination
might result in the reduc ion in grade
Of the person examined or his dis
missal.
Mr.. 0berly also said that it was in
contemplation to arrange a definite
schedule of dates and places for hold
ing examinations 10 the vsriou States,
thus relieving candidates OF the doubt
and frequent long delays which have
heretofore existeO. The commission,
he added, had decided that it was not
wise or economical m appoint exam
ining boards from officers now ia the
civil service to examine and grade
applicant, in each Stste and Teln,o,y,
as suggested by the National @ VII
Service R-flrm League. Instesd of
thlf, the board would Tub MT 10 lhs
President for his approval plan to
reduce the number of departmental
examiners in this city from fourteen
to six, and assign them entirely to the
duty OF going over the examination
papers OF applicants from all parts of
the country and grading them, thus
insuring uniform rating.

ports, for building up a solid and
prosperous trade with Central and
South America. The Mississippi river
will, by the. labors Of the River Com
mission, be put in good navigable con.
dition, and fiourishing South Ameri-
cap trade with New Orleans would
ybTiug large amount OF business to
Memphis. Plainly, this country
ought not despairingly TO abandon TO
England and Germany a trade
for which it's neiehborhood gives
1t facilities 80 superior to theirs
Among the topics to be submitted to
the consideration Of the convention
are TIE future channels of our Gull
ports trade; inducements to seek mar.
kets in South America; the extent to
which Central American trade can be
developed; the Tehuautepec ship rail
way; the bearing Of tropical trade on
pubic health; Mexico; ship building
in the Cult ports; Congressional aid
to ship building; is protection for the
agricultural products of the Gulf

RESUMPTION OF RIVER I'M.

The failure OF Congress TO provide
for the payment oithe salaries OF the
River Commission for the coming
year had raised doubt as TO whether
the work would not be left unattended
to, but the commissioners have patri.
otically determined to proceed with
their LAHORE, whether Congress pays
them for theirssrvices or mo-. The New
Orleans Picayune says that at their re-
cent meeting in New York the COM
missioners resolved at once to com
pltte their laboIs at Plum Point and

done at these places has proved most
valuable, and but for the failure Of the
last Congress but one to make any ap.
preparation 10 continue the improve
ments two Of the worst places in the
river would have been cleared OF their
impediments. Both time aud money
have been lost by the delay, but the
commissioners have decided at oncs
to proceed with their operations in
both those localities; also to protect
the head OF the Atchsfalaya where it
connects with Red river, 20 as to pre-
vent further enlargement OF that dan
gerous outlet. The works in progress
at several OF the barbours OF river
towns will be proceeded with. Some

PROTECTION IN CANADA.

A few years ago Canada undertook
20 increase It's prosperity by adopting
the protective system, That system
consists in collecting taxes from one
portion Of the people TO increase the
profits OF smother, aad it is OF interest
to know how IL is operating in Canada.
That country, having a smaller and
iess wealthy popu a;ion than ours, the
plan OF taking from one to enrich
smother developes sSeffects more
rapidly than with us, and its expert
ence istherefore OF value to us as in
diCa,ing what, in the long run, will
eoeur among ourselves. The st. John,
New Brunswick, corresp ondent of the
New York Herald has given some OF
tbs results, as supplied to him by
Canadian business people and public
men. He fund universal desire
in the maratime provinces, ex.
pSssed as much by Oonserva-
uvss as Liberals, for treaty
with the United SAFES by which
reciprocal tr d may modify the effects
of protection. The most prominent
man of Prince Edwards Island, Mr.. l..
a. Davis, in a speech made last week
in New Rru swck, vs.d an exr ression
which is rigging through Canada. He
said' Il FOR one would vote for repeal
and verance Of tie u0ioa withou.

app'suc greeted this Dc declaration,
showing that deviato on from prohi-
bition was valued more than the

NABuNEE, MICH, September 20 -
Mis- Ions RouIllard was shot by
Joieph King at l o'clock this after
noon. Jealousy is assigned as the
cause. Both are residents of this
place.. King is widower with two
children. Mrs. Rouillard is said to
have been receiving the attentions OF
several men for some time, King be-
ing one of them-hence the jealousy.
She is the mother of five children.
1t is said that she cannot recover.
The shooting was done with a large
sized revolver, the ball entering the
lett breast and lodging in the shoul-
der. King was arrested and is now
in custody.
