WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-The outlook
for changing the civil service law is be-
ing actively canvassed among Republican
members of the house az a result Of the
conference held Saturday night. The
members OF the committee having the
matter in charge are trying to shape a
bill SO that 1t will command the support
of number of divergent elements. One
Of these is the Democratic minority.
which, combined with the Republicans op
posed TO the present law. would be strong
enough TO carry bill
But In canyassing the situation. it has
been found that the Democratic members
would favor complete repeal of the law.
but would oppose anything short of re-
peal. AS the Republican movement is not
toward complete repeal, but rather for
a Modification of the law. there appears
10 be no basis by which the anti-civil serv-
ice reformers of both parties can unite.
II is claimed, however, that a modifica-
tion of the bill will receive the votes of
two-thirds of the Republican members
aud will have a good chance of passing
the senate and receiving the presidents
signature.
Pearson Of North Carolina. who inaug
urated the mosemaut. ard Is a member ot
flsn special committee, says the essential
notifications OF the law likely 10 be cou-
sldered by the committee are as follows:
Excluding from the operations OF the
law Cases in which one government officer
is responsible for the acts of his sabordi-
mates. a. public collectors of revenue.
Examinations Of those already covered
into the classified service without exam
ination SO as TO pat them on footing
with new applicants.
Change of examinations so as to take
them more practical and less theoretic.
Distinct provision against llfe tenure and
for a stated term OF service.
Affirmation Of the rights of heads OF de-
rartsnents to remove, reduce or promote
In the interest of the public.
a limitation Of the law to specific depart
ments. bureaus. etc, and an exclusion Of
those not enumerated.
Another point that viii materially figure
i'm the discussion is the subject of the al
legged rapid and unauthorized enlargement
Of the functions of the civil service com

intended TO apply to tenure Of office and
