CIVIL SERVICE EXTENDED.
Thirty Thousand Government
Employees Are Added to the
Classified List.
ALI Are Now Responsible to the
Commission for Appointments
and Changes.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May s.-The
President has by his signature extended
the provisions of the civil service law to
$4,000 Government employees, increasing
the number of positions on the classified
list from 55,736 to 85. 1876, and with a few
minor exceptions between the extremes of
officials whose confirmation by the Senate
is constitutionally requisite, down to mere
laborers and workmen. Government ap-
polntments are withdrawn as far as posi-
bic from political influence and protected
in their tenure of office y the merit
system.
The Presidents signature yesterday
canceling all former orders issued
and substituting the new rules was
Immediately filed in the State Department
and went into effect at once, thus FORE
stalling any possible action throughout
the country by appointing officials or
transferring employees or in any other way
evading the rules before being formally
notified of them. From the moment OF
its signature the new order made all Gov
ernment officials directly responsible to
the commission for appointments and
changes.
This revision of the rules divides
the executive, civil service into five
branches as follows: The departmental
service, the customhouse service, the post
office service, the Government printing
service anG the interna revenue service

ALL ARE JOINED AGAINST HIM
Rather Peculiar Change of View;
Since He Was Before the San.
ate Committee.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May sc. P.
Huntington breaks into the Posts news
columns this morning to inform Wash
ington people that he is "out of politics"
He was asked if he had read the dispatch
from Sacramento.
"Did you expect the convention would
instruct for Mckinley"
"Really had not thought much about
it. l am not in politics and am not watch
ing these matters; in TACT, 1 am doing
what can to keep the railroad which
in part control so far out of politics that
no one can justly accuse the company of
interfering in such matters. When nomi-
nations are all made shall then Judge for
myself which is best"
''I notice they adopted an anti-funding
resolution?"
"Yes, see they did, and 1 expected
they would in fact, think the majority
of the people of California will do almost
anything to force the Pacific railroads
into the hands of the Government, think
ing that the Government will be induced
70 operate them for the benefit of Cali
fornia, as many claim that she has never
received what she is entitled to from the
Federal Government, and that it would De
nothing more than fair to have the Gov
eminent own and run the Pacific railroads
largely in the interest of their State. SO
believing, have no doubt they would do
almost anything to bring about such re-
suit
The Star, commenting on this interview,
says: Mr.. Huntington's idea of opposi-
ton of the funding scheme is undergoing a
steady and gratifying expansion. AT first
he represented to Congress that opinion
was confined to few dozen irresponsible
soreheads, and that California, with the
rest of the world, was at his back.
He now admits that California IS not at
his back, but contends that it is a case OF
California alone against G. P. Huntington,
Representative Powers, the railroad lobby,
the American Republic and the world at
large.
When the test comes it is expected that
Mr.. Huntington may be compelled to ad-
nit that opposition to the funding scheme
has extended even outside of California.
The Indebtedness of over $100, ,000, 600 due
from Mr.. Huntington and his associates
is not owed to California, but to the
United States, and the people in general
may take some little interest in the
proposition that this debt shall be can
celed by obliterating the principal in con-
sideration of a payment of less than the
legal rate of interest for fixed term OF
years.

Expenses of the Comnsission to Meet {.
This Cifn.

IhtS City.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May S.-The
President to-day approved the bill appro-
priating $4,000 to defray the expenses of
the United States in the proposed joint
commission which, according to the pro-
visions of the treaty recently agreed to by
the Senate, is to meet at San Francisco to
assess the damages alleged to have oeen
sustained by Canadian seaIers through
being seized or otherwise molested while
engaged in the destruction of seals in
Bering Sea- outside the territorial limits
of one marine league from the shores of
Pribyloff Islands.
The notifications made by the Senate
in the convention as originally agreed to
by Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British EN-
bassador, and Secretary Olney, require
that the agreement shall be again referred
to the British Government for approval.
but as the changes made by the Senate
were finally deprived of all important feat
ures, under pressure brought to bear bv
the State Department, it is not anticipated
that any serious difficulty will interpose
to the hnal ratification and PRONUNCIATION
OF the treaty. AS soon as this is accom-
plished the three commissioners will be
appointed-one by the United States. one
by Great Britain and one by the President
of the Swiss Republic.

for the consideration of private pension

for the consideration of private pension
bills
at the evening session nearly an hour
was spent discussing the bill to pension
the widow OF General Thomas Ewing. The
bill passed the Senate carrying 500 a
month and the Committee on Invalid PEN
sions recommended that it be reduced to
S76. Talbert moved to further reduce it to
$50, and on that motion the whole question
OF pensioning officers widows was dis
cussed with much vigor. On division
the motion of Talbert was agreed to-ayes
63, noes 60, but on a vote by tellers it was
rejected-67 to So. The committee amend
ment fixing the amount at $75 was then
agreed to.
During the evening twenty EIGHT bills
were favorably acted upon, this being
seven more than the previous high record
established at Friday night session in
this Congress. These. together with the
seventy-two bills considered at Wednes-
days session, were reported to the House
by Chairman Hepburn, and they all go on
the calendar.
Among the bills acted upon were the
following: To grant pension OF $75 a
month to Mrs. Mary Gould Carr, widow of
the late General Joseph B. Carr; to grant
Funkhouser. widow of Colonel Funk
houser of the Nineteenth Illinois In
fantry.
At 10:30 o'clock the House adjourned
until Monday.

NEW SCHEDULE OF RAT TES
According to the Terms All the

Reduced Fares During the Civil
Engineers Convention in
San Francisco.

CHICAGO, ILL, May S.-After numer-
GUS meetings in this CITY and St. Louis,
and after an arbitrator's award had been
prepared only to be ignored, schedule of
rates satisfactory to all lines was COM
pleted to-day on export grain from Kansas
points to Galveston and New Orleans.
The Missouri Pacific was the road which
refused to abide oy the award, because it
imposed higher rates for it out of Wichita
than was allowed the Santa Fe to the Gulf
ports The new mapagem ent closely fol-
lows the lines of the award, but so modi-
fed that equitable rates for all lines from
all points are preserved, and no line will
be compelled to go out OF the grain carry
ing business southwest. This trouble had
disturbed the freight situation in the
whole of that territory.

according to the enormity of the infrac-
ton. The passage OF a law by the Ohio
Legislature prohibiting railroads making a
charge for the transportation of bicycles
in baggage-cars prevented any definite ac-
ton being taken by the committee on that
question. The Ohio roads, with one ex-
ing the law, but the dissenting official said
the law was farce because there was no
penalty clause, and said his road woul d
ignore it. Most OF the roads will continue
charging for bicycles outside of Ohio.
The Southern Pacific gave notice to-day
that it would make reduced rates for the
American Society of Civil Engineers Con-
vention in San Francisco June 80, inde-
pendent of the refusal of the Transconti-
pental Passenger Association and its chair
man TO give the road such authority. The
Union Pacific at once gave notice that it
would meet the rates, and all other COM
petitors have been authorized 10 do. like
wise. The rates provide for 60-day re-
turn limit, thus providing cheap excur-
sion to the coast on all lines during the
summer.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May S.-After
several years discussion and as many un-
successful attempts, members OF the
House to-day voted-130 to 108-to place
themselves on an equality with the Sem
ate in respect to the matter of providing
themselves with clerks the year round in
stead of for the sessions of Congress only.
1t was not until 1898 that the House went
even so far as that. To-day's action was
preceded by an animated debate of an hour
or more, in which q dozen members took
part.
The principal opposition to the resolu-
ton introduced by Hartman (R.) of Mon
tana and reported by the Committee on
Accounts without recommendation, was
upon the ground that the treasury was not
in condition to meet the increased ex-
pense, but two or three members suggested
that the service of clerks were not needed.
The resolution was warmly advocated by
Hartman and Henderson (R.) of Iowa.
Before being heard the resolution was
amended so as to exclude Representatives
who are chairmen of committees having
usual clerks.
AbiOHR the OlliS pdSScu uuilHS tuc ScS-
were the following: To quiet title of cer-
tain bona-fide purchasers OF public lands;

NEW YORK, N. Y, May s.-A Sun
special from Washington says: The Senate
has passed resolution directing the Sec
retary of Agriculture to make haste in
distributing seeds to the rural constituents
OF Congressman. In the opinion of those
who have knowledge of the subject pub
lie scandal is likely to develop in connec-
ton with this years free-seed distribution.
Secretary Morton cannot personally re-
spond to the order of the Senate, as he has
gone for q months jaunt to the Pacific
Coast, but his department may be called
upon to explain some very peculiar trans
actions in which some members of Con-
gress NAV be unpleasantly involved.
The firm receiving the contract was able
70 bid lower price because of the adver-
tisement it received by being allowed to
put Its name on each package. Not con-
tent with this, it is now offering to put up
seeds in exactly the same style of pack
ages as the Government seed and supply
Congressmen at the rate of $6 thousand
packages. Other firms are also making
the same offers, Notwithstanding notice
from the Secretary of Agriculture that
such proceedings will not be permitted.
