FRIGHTENING THE CLERKS.
A Change of Administration No Longer
Means Clean Sweep.


AT meeting of the Pennsy lvania Republican
Club of Washington at Grand Army Hall early
last week Representative Osborne told the Gov
ernment employees present in very plain language
that they had better do all they could to insure a
Republican victory in Pennsylvania this fall.
Mr.. Osborne gave the clerks TO understand that
their bread and butter depended on the retlec-
tion of Senator Cameron, and warned them that
If a Democratic President were chosen in 1892
they would all be fired out OF office unceremo-
niously.
One of the members of the Civil Service Com
mission said 10 a SUNDAY HERALD reporter in
regard to this declaration;
IF Mr.. Osborne was reported correctly, must
say that the gentleman has no grounds whatever
for his statement. The clerks themselves know
that nothing of the kind is anyway probable
and that if Democratic President should be
elected very few of them would lose their places
for political reasons. During President Harri-
sons term of Office not over 8 per cent. of the
total number of appointments in the classified
service have been changed, and during Ceye-
lands administration the percentage was about
the same. These changes are always likely to
occur, and while some few instances may have
occurred under both administrations in which
man may have been turned down for political
reasons they are extremely rare. As for saying
that a change of Senator or change of admin
istration would turn all the present clerks out,
such statement is utterly unwarranted, and the
clerks themselves cannot be fooled into beiev-

THE NEW CITY POST OFFICE.
The President Said to be Showing Consider

able Interest in the Plans.
They are hard at work at the Attorney Gen
erals Office perfecting the title to the square
bounded by Pennsylvania avenue, street,
Eleventh street, and Twelfth street. the site for
the new City Post Office, and as soon as the
work is completed the commission will be ap-
pointed to condemn the property. This done,
the work of demolishing the old buildings now
occupying the ground will shortly follow. 1t
was discovered that special act of condemna-
tion had to be passed, as two of the lots in the
block were so tangled up in an estate that
nothing else could be done, so an amendment
was Incorporated in the Sundry Civil bill, now
under consideration, to meet the obstruction.
Senator German also had placed in the bill an
amendment appropriating $SO0,000 for the
building, as the former appropriation only
called for the purchase of the ground.
Postmaster Ross, who has been indefatigable
postmaster, is very sanguine that the Office will
be the model one of the country. He said it was
impossible to tell how long it would be before
the building was finished. When the title is per-
fected affairs will assume better shape. The
site is a good one, and citizens generally seem
pleased with it.
The plans for the new structure are being pre-
pared at the Supervising Architects Office.
Great interest is taken in them by Architect
Windrim, as this building will be the first one of
Importance undertaken in Washington under his
administration. President Harrison has shown
considerable interest in the plans.
prominent builder says if the work is COM
menced in the spring of 1891 and pushed along
without hindrance he sees no reason why it
should not be finished in the summer of 1895 and
ready for occupancy.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
The Commission Annual Report
Presented to Congress.

The Commission Annual Report
Presented to Congress.
WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-The annual re.
port OF the interstate commerce commits
sion was sent to congress to-day. The
report reviews at length the work of the
commission for the year aud various ind cial
and administrative questions tina: have
come up during that time. The commits
sion recommends a number Of amend
neuts to the law. The first is
that that there be added to section 2 a
provision recommended in the second an
nuaI report of the commission that the
facilities to be afforded by common carriers
shall include due and reasonable receiving
forwarding aud delivery by every such
carrier, at the request of another common
carrier, of through traffic at through rates.
APPLICATION FOR CRIMINAL REMEDIES.
The second is an amendment to section 10
removing antiquities in the language aud
making criminal remedies clearly applica-
BILE to corporations, when a common carrier.
as well as it officers and agents
Further amendment IS also indispensable,
the commission says, in the par5 of this
section providing for the service of criminal
process on corporations and bringing them
under the jurisdiction of the courts.
1t also repeats the recommendations con-
tanned in the previous reports, making
clear the obligation of witnesses to attend
before the commission in obedience TO
subpanas regardless of boundaries or Judi
cial districts, ETC.; for free trans
portation Of persons injured in
railroad accidents, ETC.. prohibiting the
payment of commissions by one railroad
company to the ticket agents of another for
passenger transportation, etc. abolishing
ticket brokerage, and regulating the pay
ment of car mileage for use of the cars OF
private companies or individuals
REPORTS FROM CARRIERS.
The commission also recommends change
IN section 10 so as 10 enable it to obtain re-
ports from common carriers when desired,
and to call for reports from companies own
ing connecting or terminal facilities, or
rolling stock, or floating equipment used by
common carriers, and from companies or
carrying agencies doing transportation
business in connection with common car
riers subject to the act.
The commission says that the difficulty
of obtaining direct evidence from parties
who, by means of participation in Illegal
acts, have such knowledge of the particu-
lars of the transactions as to be able to
testify to them is invariably very great, and
circrmstantial evidence must in many
cases constitute the chief reliance. The
commission suggests an amendment to the
law to meet this case

A FRIENDS EXPLANATION.
A close friend to Mr.. Wanamaker said

part OF Jay Gould's attempt to break down
Mr., Wanamaker's credit because Mr..
Wanamaker urges postal telegraph so
strenously. Much fuss has been made by
Mr.. Gould'S agents, and those Of the lottery
people about the recording of a $4,000
mortgage on Mr. Wanamaker's house here.
Now the fact is that $50 900 is part OF the
$4,000 he bought the land
from ex-Secretary Whitney for,
which he left on mortgage to ex-Secre-
tary Whitney. Not desiring to keep that
