WORK OF THE BOARD.


Unwilling Witnesses Tell of the Scandals
In the Service.
The commission held its meeting Wednesday
from 10 o'clock a. m. to 4 o'clock p. m. IN Post
master Wallaces room. The first OF the session
was entirely informal, the president of the
commission, Mr.. Lyman with the other MEM
bers, going carefully over the registration books
of the Wallace regime. In the examination of
these books the first signs of uneasiness on the
part of the Government Oficary at the large
stone building developed themselves. In OBJ
serving the lists of names OF applicants for gov
eminent service IL was noticeable that at the
side of many Ofthe names was marked the word
soldier" Mr. Lyman asked what significance
that word carried with it to the mind of the
secretary of the local board of examiners. Mr.
earnestness that in making his entries he made
Ii a custom 10 indicate the old soldiers in this
manner. But the bad president persisted in
wanting 10 know what was the effect produced
upon his mind, as an examiner, by the word.
81 understand, sir," said he, that soldiers
are entitled TO q credit of ) per cent on their
examination gradings."
"NO, sir: not unless they were discharged for
disability incurred in the service" said Mr..
Lyman.
The examination of the books disclosed the
fact that since August, 1888, POS applications
have been filed with the civil service clerk.
OF the number who passed at the August ex-
animation, 1888, and the February examina-
ton 1889, there are now on the eligible list four
teen for carriers and twenty-five for clerkships
Mr. Woodward and Mr.. Thompson both. when
asked by Mr. Swift, said they did not know a
single applicant personally, of all the number
on the eligible list. Mr.. Roosevelt said that
the applicants for clerkships had passed good
examinations, but he regarded the grades
made by the carriers as poor. The eligible
lists are here given, together with their exami-
nation grades. Only three out OF every FIVE
can be appointed:

During his term Mr. Wallace has made four
appointments from the eligible, and three of
them have BEEN mail-carriers. They are James
W. Doran appointed April 10; J. y. Hobbs
appointed May l, and Robert II. Blackledge
appointed June II, and on the first day of June
William a. Carson of Southport vas appointed
chief letter stamper.
The commissioners were interested at this
iuneture in attempting to find the names of
those reinstated, but were unable TO do so,
whereupon Mr.. Lyman asked the clerk, Mr.
Woodward, TO furnish him a copy. This he
did handing him the following names: j. A.
Downey, J. NJ. Taylor and George W. Suigrove.
The question of reinstatement vas yariously
discussed but nothing definite was being ac-
complished so Mr.. Roosevelt suggested that
the session become formal. This suggestion was
taken by consent and ere many minutes the
commissioners, reporters, Postmaster Wallace
and deputies were seated around a long table
brought into the room by two large eolored
men-employes.
Mr. Roosevelt craved the indulgence Of the
board moment while he explained the nature
OF the interview the commissioners had held
with President Harrison shortly before their
departure from Washington. lie stated that
President Harrison begged to assure the people
that he meant that the civil service law should
be observed Sin letter and in spirit;" that he
hoped at the coming August examination all
persons. irrespective of politics. will come for
ward and be examined, and the commission
guarantees all an equal chance. With refer.
ence TO reinstatements, Mr.. Roosevelt said an
old soldier or sailor may be reinstated any time
after having been discharged, provided the post
master reinstating him is fully convinced he
was not removed for cause; but in the of
individuals who have never been connected
with the army or navy, the reinstatement must
be made within a year after having been dis
charged.

very mild session began 10 show signs OF an ap-
preaching storm The lowering clouds of

a SENTINEL reporter asked Deputy u. S.
Atty. Cockrum why witnesses were recalled in
so few of the cases. He asserted that the notes
of the evidence taken by the preceding grand
jury were read TO the last grand jury and wit
nesses we're recalled in all the cases which that
body deemed worthy Of investigation. This
very "thin" explanation does not explain why
some of the clearest aud most fragrant cases of

AN uNsoLvED MYSTERY.

IL 10 Revived by tho Destroying OF ths
Only Witness Thereto.
The tearing down Of the stable at the
corner OF Sixth avenue and Main street,
upon the site OF which Mr.. T. c. Power
will erect a block, reyiYes one OF the two
unsoIyed mysteries that have worried Hell
ena. One OF these is the murder Of John
Dem and the other, which Is now revived,
Ia the supposed murder Of man In this
stable In 1881.
One morning in the rear OF this stable
alongslde the wall In one OF the stalls, the
stablemen noticed a spray OF blood and
pool OF II on the door. Immediate
search revealed that no horse had
been wounded nor was One missing.
Physicians were called In who examined
the blood and pronounced II human. When
this became known ex -ltement ran high in
the city, and the most diligent research
failed 20 bring out n clue upon which the
suTnise OF murder could be based. Col.
Wheeler, at present In charge OF the HlstO-
ricsl library, was at the time city marshal.
lie and his assistants searched all over, but
nothing tangible could be obtained upon
which 10 suspect anyone.
being driven out OF the stable after mid
night and 1t was also ascertalned that a
man had purchased stage ticket 70 Fort
Benton which was never used. Who the
person was could not be asceTtained,
neither was = missing horse and wagon
ever heard from. still there was not the
slightest doubt that a foul murder had
been committed. The suppositi0n was
that the missing stage ticket belonged 10
the murdered man; that he had a consider
able amount OF money with him, and that
he sought lodging In this stall after having
been around town rather late, not caring
tO spend any money for bed.
IL is also supposed that two men COM
mitted the dead; that one held the victim
down while the other slashed knife across
his throat The appearance at the time Of
the spray Of blood on the wall forces the
idea that the man was killed in this man
ner. The trail OF blood Indicated that the
body had been thrown into a wagon and
buried or hid some place, the skeleton Of
which has still 10 be discovered. The old
adage OF murder will OUT seems 10 be
amiss In this case as well as that OF John
Deen.
The ground upon which the stable In
question was erected was originally owned
by VIM. ID. Weir. In 1873 he purchased II

II was an unusual proceeding. and one
which Is likely TO subject TO adverse
criticism those who took part in 1t. for
members OF the state Legislatures OF Ne
braska, Minnesota. Colorado, Kansas and
Texas to assemble in st. Louis for the
alleged purpose OF considering measures
for combating the so-called beef COM
bine. Those who are disposed 10 be cyni-
cal will intimate that II Is an attempt Of
one combine 10 reach an understand
ing with another; that the delegates to
the st. Louis conference are merely the
agents OF the members at their respec-
tive state capitals; that the notice OF
their assembling at st. Louis was an in
timation to the Armours, Swifts, Hutch.
insons and Fowlers that they were ready
for propositions. and many other things
OF like disagreeable character.
II is not 80 many years ago that the
circumstance should have been forgot
ten that the United States Of America
found ii necessary TO threaten Germany
with retalliatory measures because Of the
action OF the latter government In ex-
cluding American hog products from its
markets, ,ostensibly because Of alleged i'm
purity or unhealthfulness OF our lard,
bacon and hams. There were those who
even went so far as TO declare that the ac-
tion Of Germany in this matter furnished
occasion for war. The gentlemen who
assembled in st. Louis on Tuesday pro-
posed TO put the states Of the union
which they were elected to represent at
their respective capitals (but not In st.
Louis, which is not the capital OF state

states which Germany assumed toward
