tating and waiting people to cause a perccptible
decrease In the new business transacted. But
the anxiety Of GONE to exaggerate the difference
IN order to help interests or theories OF their
own leads to not little distortion OF facts
Thus some published statements Indicate that
there has been a great and significant decrease
in the>Tolume OF bank exchanges that they
have become smaller than in any week for nine
months. But bank ccarings usually decrease
sharply In March after initial orders for the
season have been placed and as April settle
ments draw near. so that II the statement were
entirely trie II would not prove much under the
exceptional circumstances. But 1t is not entirely
true. During single week. in which spccula-
ton at New-York was exceptionally arrested
exchanges here were very low but outside
New York in the same week they were barely 2
per cent less than in the last week Of February
and were $4,000 900 more than 2 per cent
greater than In the corresponding week of 1902
total clearings In March were 372 per cent
larger than last year and 60 per cent larger
than In 1892 and for the week Just closed the
exchanges outside Of New-York we're slightly
larger than In that year OF maximum prosperity
while at NewYork they were over 10 per cent
larger.

JNCONVENIENT INTERFERENCE 8.

The Tammany Civil Service Commissioners
go on making rules. utterly regardless OF the
new law compelling them to refer all regula
tons for approval 10 the State commission be-
fore putting them into operation. They may
think that this is smart encouraged to violation
of law by the signs Of hoy" approval recently
manifested when the Commissioners OF Ac-
counts impudently and without the least pre-
tence of right got rid Of some unwelcome suDor
dnates protected by the Civil Service rules by
abolishing their offices one day and re-estab
fishing them under the same names with In
creased salaries the next But they should re-
member that violation Of law. though amusing
is not always safe, fact which if they doubt
they can ascertain by looking up the history
of some previous lights Of Tammany Hall
The new Civil Service law is in operation
and was in operation before Tammany made lis
last wholesale transfer Of places to the non
competitive schedule Thus the local Commits
sioners have fatty challenged the law and have
left nothing for the civil Service Reform Asso-
citation to do but take up the issue and CON
vince them that Civil Service laws have the
same binding force as other statutes and are
not merely academic resolutions to please re
formers" and to be d.sregarded by politicians
Tammany claims and perhaps rightly. that the
new law is not retroactive, and that the orlgl-
nal rules promulgated without reference to Al
bany cannot be set aside or reviewed; but GER
tanly the State Commission has genera. super.
vsory powers from the time Governor Black
signed the bill and those are amply sufficient
to stop the juggling with the law which has
been going on since January l, though so slowly
that the faithful were impatient and pressing
for wholesale changes which can never come
1t is really sad outlook for the boys.
They won the election on ITO hell with re-
form" platform. including Civil Service REFORM
and now they find that a tyranncal Constitu-
ton and laws make them responsible 10 pre-
scribed rules Of conduct instead Of responsible
to the Organization" 1t is mighty inconven-
lent thus to have laws interfere between friends.
