YALE GREEK SCHOLARS,

Effect of the War Upon the School at
Athens.
Professor Thomas D. Seymour, head
of the Greek department at Yale, has
just received elaborate reports Of the
war situation in Greece. and yesterday
afternoon he discussed the probable eff
feet of the present war on the country,
particularly the effect of the war on the
American school at Athens and on the
Yale Greek scholars who are studying
in Greece.
Professor Seymour is, it will be re-
membered, chairman of the managing
committee of the American school in
Athens.
Excavations have been stopped by
the managers of the American school
in Athens" said Professor Seymour,
because of two reasons. In the first
place, there are no Greeks who could
be hired to continue the work of ex-
cavatton, and in the second place, the
government has no money nor time to
care for the valuable relics excavated,
as is necessary If they are to be pre-
served.
"Of course the state Of affairs in
Greece does not prevent the study of
Greek archaeology from going on in the
libraries, but letters from the Yale men
in Greece state that it is of course very
difficult to study and to go on with
classical research in the excitement
that prevails in the city.
"Eben Alexander '73 is the American
minister to Greece, and have received
dozens of papers from him relating to
the trying situation in that country"
Much interest prevails at Yale over
the situation, as the American school
at Athens has been so largely con-
Quoted by Yale men. 1t is safe to pre-
dict that Yale interests at the Gre
clan capital will be cared for by her
son, the Grecian minister, Mr.. Alexan-
der

siqninr of tbe Sealing BIII.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-No appoint
ments Will be made by the president
during the holiday recess of congress,
except in case OF emergency. Despite
the announcement of this fact the
number of visitors at the White House
today was unusually large. General
John w. Foster had a brief interview
with the president concerning the pc
lagic sealing bill, which is now before
the executive.
Representative Johnson of North Da-
lSota urged the president not to sign
the sealing bill. maintaining that as
diplomatic negotiations between the
United States and Canada with refer
ence to the sealing controversy had
been practically terminated, the bill
would avail nothing in furthering the
negotiations and would be an injustice
to sealers Of the United States. The
president gave no expression of his in
tentions. but it is expected that he will
sign the bill I'm a few days.
Representative Brosius of Pennsyl-
vania, chairman of the house civil
service committee, had an extended
conference with the president about the
| operation of the civil service law. The
president is availing himself of the op-
portunity TO talk freely with senators
and representatives concerning the law
and the effort that is now being made
TO secure its modification. He is being
urged to except some positions that are
now in the classified service, but at the
White House IL is said that he has not
yet seriously considered the question oi
modifying the law.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-William Han
son. Go years old, who occupied a fur
nished room at 121 Vanderbilt avenue,
Brooklyn, was found dead in bed. He
had been dead several. hours. On the
table near the head OF the bed were two
bottles which had contained brandy and
cyanide Of potassium two tumblers and
a note addressed to Mrs. Forsythe. The
writer Of the note, after declaring his
intention to kill himself and apologize
ing for doing so in her house. wrote:
MY family are objects of charity, and
80 am I. 1 would be better dead than
alive. My society is no longer needed
here. My friends can be found at 3
Glendale place"
Among Mr.. Hanson's papers found on
table in his room was an autobiogra-
ply in which he said he was a philo-
Sophical anarchist.
In another note Hanson told the story
Of his life as follows:
"Mr. Hanson plOwed and towed, reap
ed and moved, stacked hay and grain,
milked cows made butter shot and
cooked game, felled trees sawed logs,
split rails, built fences, cut cordwood
and firewood, dug bitches, built houses
and barns, darned his own socks and
patched his own trousers.
subsequently he educated himself
and taught school; took partial course
in college and married in 1866, since
which time he has worked at the watch
makers bench that being his trade to
which he was apprenticed by his IA
ther. After President Lincoln signed
the emancipation proclamation he be-
came a naturalized citizen in Septem-
Der, 1866, at Elmira, n. Y.
He has not voted in 20 years. The
financial policy Of the Republican party
has been so infamous and unjust that
he ceased to support it. He is a Chris
tian writing dogmatic theology, a
philosophical anarchist"
On the outside of letter was writ
ten: Mr. ziely win take care of my
trunk. He lives at Glendale place"
Mr. Ziely was not there, but his wife
said that Hanson was a friend of hei
husband and that he had a wife and
daughter living at Towanda, Pa. Mr.
Ziely will bury Hanson.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21. - Commis-

civil service and retrenchment, which
Is conducting an investigation into the
operations Of the civil service system.
Mr.. Evans was questioned at length by
Senators Lodge and Pritchard about the
civil service system and its application
TO the pension Office force He express
ed the opinion that the law did not ac-
compllsh the results its friends insist
ed that it did. The best men in his Of
fee were those who had come in under
the so called "spoils system" They
did their duty and expected to hold
their positions by so doing. The pension
examining board, he said, ought not TO

desirable TO secure men as members Of
such boards who had wide surgical ex-
perience-army experience, II possible
and such men would not enter into COM
petition for the places with young men
Just out Of college. He thought, how
ever, that the entire system of appoint
ing the boards was wrong and that all
of them ought to be under a uniform
system Of appointment.

clerk and that he ought not to be
hampered I'm removing a clerk for in
efficiency. If permitted to do so, he
could remove at least 100 clerks from
his Office without affecting the efficiency
of the force. He thought It would be
desirable to have a definite tenure OF
Office not exceeding ten years, so that
every year about 10 per cent of new
blood could be infused into the force.
This would do away with the abuses re-
sulting from some clerks remaining in
Office too long. The commissioner
thought that some reform would have
to be enacted or the country would have
the inhiction of civil pension list. He
believed it was a mistake TO include

visions and all others receiving salaries
