S Ssy { E q: %u e be licensed by tho state examiner and
senator Grady introduced two bills to-day
Yhich undoubtedly come from the city authori-
ties OF New York. One of them provides for the
extension to the Government of the new city of
tho provisions Of Gov. Blacks Civil Ser
vice law. under which the appointing
power can make such appointments as It
pointing municipal Civil Service Commissioner
20 draw regulations, but such commission Is
more or less hampered by the provisions of the
charter which prcscribes several general rules
for &c to follow.
Under these rules the appointing power is
equch less free to enforce its will. even IL
the local commission adopts tho most liberal
regulations. The charter compels the selec-
tion Of applicants according to fitness.
as the Constitution. Tho Constitution mentions
both merit and fitness. and under Gov. Blacks
law these are rated ut 80 per cent. each. 1t is
apparently the intention of the Tammany lea
dere to gain as much freedom in municipal
affairs as Gov. Black 8 law secures In general.
Senator Grady's other bill relates to the Street
Cleaning Department and provides q consider
established by the charter. The bill proposes to
dents from p to IL. time collectors from
