CIVIL SERVICE RULING.

Power to Make Transfers DenIeu
by Federal Judge.
CHICAGO, Nov. 8-Judge Jackson
handed down a decision today which
holds that transfer cannot, without
trial, be made under the civil service
law because it is equivalent to remov-
al. Judge Jackson insists that the

sition. under the civil service law, gives
him right in equity to the place
which he is not forced to surrender,
save for cause. Judge Jackson remarks
in his document that the leaving OF
discretionary power in the hands of the
heads of departments makes the civil
service a dead letter. He rules that
there is no doubt the civil service law
is entirely constitutional. His second
finding is that congress has never dele

declares that the internal revenue SER
vice had been placed under the merit

final holding is that court of equity

ters it seems that the mortgages have
been executed on single lots and rang
ed from $1,000 to $25,OOO, and 1t is estt-
mated that the swindlers have en-
riched themselves to the extent of al
most $25O,OOO. 1t is understood that the
names of the swindlers are in the pos
session of local real estate men, but
this cannot be confirmed, as they re-

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-The au-
thorities here have been advised that
the arrival tomorrow Of Sir Wilfrid
Laurier and Sir Louis Davies and other
officials of the Dominion Of Canada is
to have an important bearing not only
on the Bering sea settlement, but on
all the pending questions which have
been sources of international compH-
cation between the United States and
Canada, namely the passage Of alien
laborers to and from Canada, the
North Atlantic fisheries question, the
presence of many Americans In the
Klondike territory belonging to Can
ada and in the mining regions or Brit
ish Columbia, the fisheries trouble
along the Great Lakes, the bonding
privilege granted Canadian railroads,
the controversy over rights in the
Fraser river, British Columbia, and In
the Puget sound, and also the ques
tion of a reciprocity arrangement be-
tween the United States and Canada.
There is direct and definite information
that Sir Wilfrid comes prepared to
take up all these questions, and, If
possible, include them in one general
settlement, whereby the constant fric-
ton they have engendered may be
overcome.
On some of these subjects he will
confer with President Mckinley, and
on at least one of them, that relating
to alien laborers crossing the border,
he will suggest such mutual modi1ca-
ton of present restrictions as in his
opinion will be Of material advantage
to the thousands Of Americans now in
the Klondike and British Columbia
mining country, and at the same time
will be of advantage to Canada along
the eastern border. The essential fea-
lures of Sir Wilfrid's mission were
communicated to the officials here by
persons fully advised of the premier's
plans, and it can be said that the sug-
gestion that the decks be cleared Of
existing disputes between the United
States and Canada met with the favor
of the administration. While the Ber-
ing sea settlement occasioned the visit
of the Canadian premier, the Canadian
authorities attach much less impor-
tance to it than they do to the other
questions involved
They say that the Canadian sealing
interest is confined almost entirely to
the far Western territory, where the
sealers fit out and that even there are
considerable percentage of the social
ed sealerS, sail from Seattle, San Fran
cisco and other American ports, who
fit out in Canadian ports under the
British flag. What basis of settlement
can be reached is not disclosed, but lit
tie doubt, it is said, is felt by the Cana
dians that an amicable adjustment can
be made. Among the plans suggested
is that of an indemnity large enough to
permit Canada to buy out the sealers
and retire them from business. With
this done, the United States, Russia,
Japan, Great Britain and Canada

before the civil and military authorities
at their respective places of residence,

will be communicated to H. Should
they designate places of residence out
side the principal towns, they will be
advised of the necessity of residing
within the military zone of cultivation.
The military authorities will be care
full not to invade the jurisdiction of the
civil authorities. Therefore those par
doned cannot change their residence

Gov. Bushnell will not put himself on
record either way. He absolutely de-

accept the senatorship if it is rendered

to mean that Bushnell is inclined to
make the fight if the -Hannaites
decide that they stand any chance
whatever of defeating his reelection.
President Mckinley is said to be very
much wrought up over the situation in
Ohio, and there is a possibility that if
he discovers that Hanna cannot win
he will use all his power at command
to secure the election of John She1-
man. This may yet be the outcome Of
