WILL MODIFY THE CIVIL SERVICE
The President in Favor of Reducing
CInreInnl,s RIGID Policy.

The President IN EANOf
CIeveIand's Rigid Policy.
Washington July l2.-Ihe president
and members of the civil service commits
sion have had number of conferences
lately on the question of a revision OF the
civil service rules so as to exempt certain
political places which were included IN
Cleveland's last extension order a hnal
determination, however, has not been
reached, but it is altogether probable that
about 800 places will be taken out OF the
classified service. These will include dep
uty collectors of customs who are III
charge of the distribution of revenue
stamps. There are approximately loS
places in each class. 1t is not proposed,
however. to exempt the places from exam
nation and in case of failure his name
must be withdrawn and an appointment
made. 1t is argued that the positions
which it is proposed to restore to the eN.
cepted list are of great Importance, ana
that as tbe stations of these officers are
often far removed from their chief, VINO
alone is responsible for their acts, he
should have some voice in their selection.
The bonds furnished the government by
collectors of internal revenue cover all
funds passing through the hands Oh
agents and deputies, and it is commended
that if is unjust to hold collector re-
sponsible for the honesty OF n man OF
whom he knows nothing. 1t is probable
the president will take action IN the mat
ter within the next few days

 Had the deceased been in the habit of carrying 6 small vial of psrmangsnase of potash about his person when on trips in the woods, and had he retained the presecs of mind 60 use it immedi- stely after receiving the bite, no serious results would have followed. Persons who live in sections where vsnomous serpents are liable to be encountered should always carry shis antidote.
