HOW ThMMANY JuCGLEs WITH THE LAW.


The false character Of Tammnny Halls civil service
rretensons in this city has been exposed by Adoph
II. Cohen, OF the With Assembly District who was
a member OF the Tammany Hall General Committee
until he resigned the other day. In his letter to
George +. ROesch the district leader, he told how
he stood as the highest applicant for a place In the
city Hall, which the law required should be filed
from the list approved by the civil Service Bonrd,
yet his rating had effect in securing his appoint
mcnt.
Vacancies occurred right along in the grade for
which he had been examined, but none OF them
fell to him. At last Mr.. Cohen realized that passing
the highest the list carefully guarded by Chief
Examiner Lee Philips did not count for much In
the absence OF n political pull lie sought 10 find
ont why his standing the Civil Service list was
disregarded. lie was only laughed at by Tammany
workers. who found It not difficult to secure places
with handsome salaries In defiance OF the civil
Service law. so Mr.. Cohen has Joined the CITIZENS
Democracy, which ASscmlyman Kempner ana ms
colleagues are organizing, and wrote TO MT; Koesch
TINT he might strike his name from the roll Oh ts

other good cltizcns Mr. Cohen Will settle his grev'

As n sample Of the system OF distrcilng under the
Democratic gerrymander the committee presents the
comparative figures ~ population and matoriiics

Republicans hold net majority In the whole eleven
districts Of 1896 In eight districts the total Dem
ocraiic majority was 3.17l, and In three districts
the total Republican majority 5.O37 The way
In which the minority was thus onrbled to elect
