THE CIVIL SERVICE.

Report of the Commission to tho Presi-
dent-A Number of Alterations In the
Rules.
! WARRINGTON, Dec. 7.-The u S. civil
service commission. .in their annual re :
port just submitted to the president,
state that several noteworthy steps in
the advancement of the service have
been made during the year. There has
been an important extension of the
classified civil service to include a por-
tion of the Indian service.
One OF the most important is that al
lowing the establishment of competitive
examinations for promotion within
classified service. 4.
Another very important alteration,
the report states, was the abolition of
the provision allowing the promotion of
persons in the nom classified service to
positions in the classified service, after
non-competitive examination.
The commission states that they are
thoroughly satisfied with the way in
which the civil service law has been en-
forced in the departmental service at
Washington. The report says that no
state now has materially less than its
quota of appointments.
fair proportion of the men appoint-
ed from the southern states have been
colored, those successful in colored ap-
plicants being in many cases graduates
of the colleges, or higher institutions
of learning established for their race.
1t is noticeable that much larger pro-
portion of the colored race have ap-
pointments under the civil service law
than under the old patronage system.
The commission complain that their
work is hampered by the fact that the
local boards are not properly under its
control
The commission recommends that, as
rapidly as can be done, the service be
extended to all the customs and inter-
nal revenue districts in which there
are twenty-five employees; to the clerks
and writer's in the navy-yards; to the
employees of the District of Colum bia;
to the sub-treasuries and all free e-deliv-
cry post Offices There is also urgent
need for legislation that will place
the fourth-class postmasters and the
remaining officers out of partisan poll
tics
The report concludes by saying that
no question before the American peo-
pie to-day is SO important as the ques-
ton of working thorough and radical
reform of the civil service by separating
it entirely from partisan politics.

CASE OF LEPROsY.
A Chinese Laundryman at Peoria Has

chinese Laundryman at Peoria Has tho
Dread Disease-He Skipped to Chicago.
PEORIA, Ill, Dec IA Chinaman
named Sun Hong recently left Peoria,
presumably for Chicago, who was af-
fiicted with leprosy in an advanced
stage The fact that the leprous
Chinaman operated laundry here
for several months has caused de-
cided sensation, and people who had
work done at his shop have de.
stroyed the garments The case came to
light in peculiar manner. A few days
ago traveller stopping with friends
took some linen into the place. He has
seen lepro6y in various forms, and as
soon as his eyes rested on Sun Hong he
hastily departed from the place. He
told his friends about it, but they neg
lected to notify the proper authorities
Sunday morning it came to the ears.
OF your correspondent, and, in COM
pany with DIR. Bernard M. Ross, the
health officer, he visited the laundry.
1t was deserted, but inquiry of all the
Chinese laundries in the city finally
brought to light the fact that the other
members of his race here had made up
a purse and sent him away four days
ago. None of Them could saw
where he had gone, as none of them
went near him. The purse was thrown
in the door, aud the same day the lep-
rous patient left Inquiry at the spot
showed that a Chinaman answering the
description went to Chicago four days
ago, and the authorities here will ask
the officers of Chicago to continue the
search. Several Cinnamon admitted
that Sun Hong had leprosy. All of
them avoided him, and his shop was
isolated. 1t will probably be torn down
at once,
