OLD SOLDIERS TAXI NOTICE.


You CaA't Get into the Classified ssryies
without Examiuafiuu.
Washington. April 23.-An Of the ex-
ecutive departments Of the government
are receiving large numbers of letters
from ex-soldiers indicating a general
misunderstanding as to their rights TO
appointment to office. Many Of the
veterans who are after Office seem to
labor under the impression that they
can be appointed to positions In the civil
service without the formality Of the ex-
animation or requisition Of the civil SER
vice commission.
This IL largely due to the fact that
the law provides that ex-soldiers within
the civil service who resign or who are
displaced for cause other than their own
fault may be reinstated to their old
positions at any time. The law, how
ever. makes no provision giving prefer
ence to soldiers in entering the govern
ment service. who have not been In the
civil service before, except that officials
making acquisitions on the civil service
commission for a list Of eligible ap-
pointees may favor the veterans who
may happen to be on that list.

gagged, and that Crown Prince Constan-
TIN has arrived on the scene Of action.
Tne creeks are maintaining their posi-
lions.
All the dispatches from Athens admit
that the situation is extremely grave.
Fighting appears to be going on along
the whole frontier line. 1t is rumored
tnere that the king will start for Larissa
on Monday next. The western division
OF the Greek fleet has sailed for
Aeucas for the coast OF Epirus, with the
