Heads of Departments, Private
Secretaries, Chief Clerks and

P0rters, Watchmen, Janit0rs and

Most Important Exemptions Will
Be in the Internal Revenue
Service.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2l.-A dispatch to
The Herald from Washington says:
President Mckinley has again taken
up the question of relaxing civil service
rules SO as to open more places for
political appointments. Some months
ago when the subject was under dis
cussion in congress the president had
the head Of each executive department
prepare recommendations showing
which places under his department
best could be exempted from the civil
service rules.
An executive order was drawn up.
based on these recommendatlons, and
il has been on the desk Of the president
untouched d ever since. Now that the
war is not occupying SO much OF his
attention, and as the congressional
campaign is making the pressure for
places stronger. the president is con.
s.dering the mater, and it is expected
that he will issue an order in short
time taking q large number of places
from the classified civil service and
throwing them open to appointment
by the various heads of departments
and their su bordinates.
The places which will BE- removed
from the Protection Of the civil service
law are those OF private secretaries and
chief clerks and confidential clerks Of
heads of departments and assistant
heads of departments aud all persons
classed as iremen, watchmen and
laborers The most imI ortant exemp-
tious will be in the internal revenue
service throughout the country, where
all deputy collectors of internal revenue
and all storekeepers and gaugers who
receive less than s. per day are to be
taken from the classified service.
In the customs service the only
places now in classified service thai
will be exempted are two at New Yofl
the counsel to the board Of general
appraisers and the paymaster to the
collector Of the port of New York. II
the department of justice all attorney!
and assistant attorneys and all deputy
marshals are to be taken from tn,
service.
In the postal service. all superinten
dents Of branch postoffices aud carries
stations, and all clerks in charge o
carrier stations, assistant cashiers, pri
vate secretaries and stenographers t
postmasters in the larger cities. Mes
sengers. porters, char women, janitors
watchman and laborers, are to be take
from the classified service.
