They Appeal to the President in Behalf Of
Ex-Union Soldiers.
Two Notifications of the Civil Service
Rules Asked by the Union
Veternns' Union.

Yesterday afternoon President Mckinley
received a delegation of war veterans at
the White House. They presented the fol-
lowing memorial from John A. Logan Com
mand, U. v. u, Department Of the Po-
tomac:
ITO the President:
In the name of the Union Veterans
Union of the United States, numbering
some $4,000 veteran soldiers of the late
war Of the rebellion, all of whom saw serv-
Ice at the front. we present to you our re-
quest that the civil service rules now in
force be amended as per inclosed rule o. and
the addition to rule 49,.
The amendment to rule substitutes the
word "shalT' for WILL" thereby making
1t incumbent for the reinstatement of vete-
rams.
Rule 13. which is proposed as an addition
to the present law, provides that:
The civil service rules are hereby sus-
pended in so far as applies to the appoint
ment of honorably discharged soldiers,
sailors or marines in the military or naval
service of the United States, from 1851
60, to positions in the classified service
Such persons shall be eligible 20 appoint
ing a probationary period of six months
satisfactorily, shall be certified to the conf
mission for appointment
Continuing, the memorial says:
section ltOf, RcNiSSu 0tdtutSS VI tAS
United States. provides that Persons honor
ably discharged from the military or naval
service by reason Of disability resulting
from wounds or sickness incurred in the
line of duty, shall be preferred for appoint
ments to civil Offices provided they are
found to possess the business capacity
necessary for the proper discharge of the
duties of such Offices, but. unfortunately,
this law has not been enforced. and there
is no penalty attaching to its non-cnforce-
ment Today you will find here in the vari-
Gus departments of the government IN
Washington soldiers who are thoroughly
competent occupying the lowest grades IN
the classified service. while men who fought
against the flag are. with their sons, oc-
cupying the higher grades. We feel tha'
this condition of affairs Is not just ana
therefore, make an appeal to you, our COM
rade and chief executive of this great ma
ton. for which We gave the best years
of our lives to save. to correct this aouse.
