Tor Gross Violation OF Civil Service Rules.
WASHINGTON, June 4.-The Civil-serv-
ice Commission to-day made the following
report on the Milwaukee postoffice:
UNITED STATEs CIvIL-sERvicE COMMISSION,
WASHINGTON. ID. c., June 24.
Having investigated the management of
the Milwaukee postoffice. In far as it is
affected by the civil-service law, we lind
that during the past four years the post
master, Mr.. q. II. Paul, has repeatedly
violated said law, and in many cases has
manipulated the lists of elgibles so that
the person whom he preferred should be
certined to him. If MIR. Paul had any con-
siderable portion of his term to serve we
should recommend his immediate removal,
but We have determined not TO make such
recommendation, in view of the fact that
his term has already expired; of the fact
that no satisfactory proof has been adduced
to show that his action in making appoint
mentS was due to political considerations,
and of the further fact that his construc-
tlon of a letter of the commission, written
III 1885, may partly excuse q portion Of his
misconduct. The commission therefore re-
port that Mr.. Paul should be, aud hereby
IS, severely censured.
CHARLES LYMAN,
HUGH 5. THOMPSON,
'THEODORE ROOSEVELT,
Commissioners"
Mr.. Roosevelt said: "The letter of the
commission in 1885 gave him permission to
use the upper list to fill out vacancies in
the lower. 1t referred to special emer-
gency, but was taken by Mr.. Paul to give
him authority to at all times pick ont
man he wished from an upper list. like that
of clerks or carriers, and then gerrymander
lower list, like that of stampers, until he
got certifcation that contained the name
of the man he desired. He simply picked
out any man he wished, without regard to
his grade. from the upper lists. and had
him certified, putting in couple of
unfOrtunates from the lower list to make
up the certification. He also had the men
certified with such careful irregularity,
without regard to their grade, that he was
enabled to choose whoever he cared to.
In at least one case. where other means
failed, he had an examination paper re-
marked, and the average reduced so to
get the candidate out of the way of another
man. In his testimony before the commits
sion Mr.. Paul contradicted himself grossly
on one or two very important points, and
also contradicted his former testimony be-
fore the chief examiner. He tried to throw
the blame on the local examining board,
which was evidently, however, entirely
subservient to him."

What England VIII Do.

OTTAWA, June 24.-It was stated in of
fetal circles here yesterday that no action
will be taken at present by either the Do
minion or British government with regard
to protecting the British sealing vessels In
Behring sea. The ships-of-war on the
Pacific coast 60 north on their usual yearly
cruise. to which no significance can be at
tached. The question as to the right of
the United States to exclusive jurisdiction
in Behring will for the present be held
in allegiance, as. on good authority, 1t is
learned that the British government is
seeking the cooperation of the several
maritime powers of the world with a view
to their joining in the dispute of the United
States claim and in the reference of the
question to arbitration. The British govern
ment has requested the Dominion govern
ment to take no action until settlement
has been arrived at in this way. 1t is
stated that the several maritime powers,
which have been invited 10 take part in
the settlement. support the contention of
the British government that the Behring
sea is not closed sea. 1t is stated
that the claims for damages through the
seizure of the British sealers by the United
States cruisers will also be submitted to
arbitration when the question of jurisdic-
tion is taken up.

THE BEHRING SEA DISPUTE.
Secretary Blaine and the British Minister
Hold a Conference Over the Matter.

Secretary Blaine and the British Minister
Hold n Conference Over the Matter.
Specia, TO the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, June 24-Secretary Blaine
and Sir Julian Pauncefote talked long and
earnestly at the State Department to-day.
Much color is therefore, assumed to be
given to the Ottawa dispatch of this morn
ing, which sets forth that orders have been
received by the Dominion government from
England that no steps shall be taken to
protect the Canadian sealers; that joint
committee of maritime powers would be
suggested to decide whether Behring sea is
a closed sea or not. and to award damages
for the vessels already seized. 1t is more
firmly believed here now than ever that
there will be no English interference
with American control this season, at least.
The sudden moderation of the Canadian
government and the prestige OF tbs State
Department in the Samoan conference are
additional reasons why Republicans are
satisfied that the present administration
means business, and that Secretary Blaine
is up to snuff.
Thomas +. Ryan. of Indiana. ex-treasury
agent of the seal islands, had several inter
views with the President and Secretary
and went away pleased that the depart
menr, at least, understood the fur
seal fishery matter. He still in
sists that the reason for Secretary
Bayard's leniency in furnishing the
pirates was due to the fact that the ma
rauders subscribed literally to Chairman
Brice's campaign fund. He declares that
100000 would not be too much for them to
give. Twenty-six thousand seals
taken unlawfully in 1888. These were
worth seven dollars apiece in Victoria.
That would be a total of S1S2O00 One
hundred thousand dollars would not
be large proportion of that when it is
considered that the favors granted to the
pirates were not all present, but were many
of them to come.

and he wanted the summons served be-

Fitzpatrick came in he was informed that
he was wanted and would be required to
furnish bonds of $500 to appear when
wanted. The ex-referee put on as pleas
ant face as possible. Colonel J. b.

scared. The law for the collection of for

should Kilrain, alarmed at Sullivan's
fate, skip, his bondsmen would not have
to pay.
