NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Jan. 5.-The
spinners' union tonight unautrrf usly
voted to resist by strike the propo o5ed
reduction CT wages. The union mem
bers in this city number 450 steady
spinners, 100 spare spinners and 10
doffers. The meeting tonight was a
tended by both spinners and dofers.
At the outset Secretary Ross offered
suggestion to the meeting as to the ad-
visibility of postponing action in rhe
matter of reduction until the feeling Of
other unions could be learned, but the
meeting would not hear Of postpone
ment The general sentiment was ex-
pressed that the weavers and card and
picker room associations would strike
anyway, and 1t was not necessary 70
wait to find out what action the other
unions would take. The informal bal
lot favoring a strike was not made
formal as it was decided to wait a few
days to see If a way OF effecting asset
tlenlent was possible. Committees on

OCCUPATION;
IMMINENT.

LONDON, Jan. s.-A dispatch to the
Times from Pekin. dated yesterday
"wednesday, says that Germany has
taken a lease Of Kiao-Chou for fifty
years. It says also reports are current
there that a French occupation Of Hal
Nan island is imminent The Times
says editorially this morning: "It
would be simple to assume that the
Reichsanzeiger's dispatch, saying China
has ceded Kiao-Chou to Germany, tells
the whole story; for 1t quite omits to
say what China gets in return. To the
world at large, however, the material
fact is that Germany by physical force
has obtained naval station. This is
the fact that must guide other powers
in determining their own policy. The
talk Of lease is a mere saving of ap-
pearances. There is no doubt that both
Germany and China are aware that 1t
is practical cession In full sovereign
ty. 1t provides further argument in
favor Of an English guaranteed Chi
nese loan"
The morning paper editorials gener-
ally are in the same strain as that of
the Times. They point out that the
contract is one in which Germany ap-
nothing, while the question of the
safety Of the missionaries is entirely
dropped Nothing, however, Is said
about railways or mines.
The question has been raised here as
to Herr behring's right to succeed Sir
Robert Hart Gas director of Chinese
imperial maritime customs) The
Daily Chronicle says: THE agreement
upon which the last Chinese loan was
f1oated in England contained a clause
declaring that the management of the
customs should remain as now, which
was interpreted to mean should be In
the hands Of an Englishman." The
paper believes that England would not
accept Herr Detring as Sir Robert
Hart's successor. The Standard saws,
editorially: England need not be
ruftied, because she can claim exactly
the same privileges as Germany. This
is the logical and unassailable position
the government has taken up; and it is
not astonishing to find that it has maaa
profound impression in Europe as
well as had satisfactory reception in
America. Whatever Mr.. Sherman may
say, the mercantile community is well
aware that England, In claiming equal
rights for all, is fighting the battle cf
the American merchants and traders
as we'll as that Of her own subjects
The Daily News says: "The real point
for Lord Salisbury to consider is the
possibility of Germany claiming the
right to erect a tariff wall against
other powers" Commenting with sat
isfaction upon the opinions of New
York papers sympathizing with the
British policy, the Daily News says:
Such expressions Of opinion may be
taken as the bread Of our free trade
policy cast upon the waters and re-
turned to us in international influence
after many days" The Daily Mail,
commenting upon the "fact that the
United States and Japan are openly On
our side in the Chinese affair." says:
For once we are getting some recogni-
ton for our generous commercial
policy"
The Daily Graphic calls the seizure
Of Kiao-Chou "a felonious act and
suys that Emperor William with in
credible levity' has reopened the Chi
nese question and put in jeopardy the
relations Of Germany with Russia in

Sherman today sent to the senate bIs
response to the resolution asking the
heads or departments for suggestions
as TO changes in their respective de-
partments. Mr.. Sherman recommends
the exemption of heads of bureaus the
chief clerk of the state department,
from the operation of the law. 81
found,' he says in his statement.
upon entering my duties as secretary
or state, that the entire clerical forca
OF the department, including the chief
clerk al S2,500, and six chiefs OF
bureaus at $2,100 each, were under the
civil service law, under a presidential
order extending its operations so as
to embrace those officers. My opinion
Is that these seven positions should bs
excepted from the operation of the
laws governing the civil service and
L so recommended should any changes
OF the civil service law be contem-
plated. These officers should be either
appointed by the president and with
the advice and consent of the senate,
or the secretary of state should be. as
formerly, acting for the president, en-
powered to appoint them. All these
officers bear close personal relation
to the secretary of state in the con-
duct Of the departments business. 1t
is through them, the assistant secre-
taries, he is enabled to transact his Of
fetal duties, and it would seem to he
the part OF prudence and discretion
that they should be in sympathetic
touch with the head of the department
to insure cooperation and harmony of
action"
The secretary concludes with the
statement that he makes no complaint
against the present occupants of these
offices, but he thinks that, upon gem
eral principles, the secretary's hands
should not be tied. This freedom of
action on the part of the secretary of
state, which should never have been
curtailed," he says, would, I believe,
promote the public interests. 1t should
certainly instill in those officers a de-
sire to render the best possible service
to the departments and stimulate their
highest endeavors to discharge their
official duties in harmony with the
wishes of the secretary of state

Secretary of the Treasury on the
Civil Service System.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Secretary
Gage and other cabinet officers today
replied. to the senate resolution of Dec.
18, calling upon the eads Of the se' eral
executive departments for Information
as to what positions in their respective
departments should be excepted from
the civil service laws and rules. Secre-
tary Cages reply in part says:
l believe that experience has taught that
the order Of May 6, 1896, was too sweeping,
and that there should be taken out of the
classified service, considerable number OF
places that were at that time classifsd d. The
most important of these places in the
internal revenue service. The difficulties
which the department has experienced in the
administration Of the rules, as they now ex-
ist, applied to the internal revenue serv-
ice, have become intolerable. l believe that
all positions OF deputy collectors OF internal
revenue should be made excepted places,
subject, however, to ncn-cCmpetitiye exam5n1-
tions. The collectors who appoint the depu-
ties are personally responsible for the con-
duct Of their subordinates. This RESPONSE
bility covers not only the fidelity and integ-
rity OF those sUbordinates, in their relation
to the government, but extends to personal
liability to those who may be injured in
person or in property by inconsiderate or
malicious trespass committed by such sub
0rd1nateS In the course OF tnelr duty. IL lS
obviously wrong that a collector, after
suming the heavy responsibility that he does,
should be tied down to eligible list. l
believe that it is desirable that the collectors
be free to select their subordinates from
among men concerning whose personal char
acteristics and integrity they have knowledge.
Another branch of the service where eX-
perience has demonstrated that classification
was i'll advised. is the custodian service in
the public buildings throughout the country.
There are in this service large num.&r Of
low salarled positions. where academic
test Is required or desirable. / believe that
it would be Of distinct advantage to take ell
positions in the custodian force, including ele-
vator conductors, fremen, dynamo tenders
and employees of similar character out OF
the classified service.
The employees of the light house establish
ment have been under civil service rules
since May 6. No Improvement has resulted.
but on the other hand, vexatious delays have
occurred in filling vacancies which. FORUM
ately. so far have not resulted in serious
disaster. For all employees in this service
save the clerical force, the best interests
will be conserved by removing them from the
classified service. l would also exempt the
positions of shipping commissioner at the
various ports.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Senator Da-
Wis accomplished what ne desired to-
day by giving notice that he would call
up the Hawaiian annexation treaty in
executive session Monday next, and
will ask the senate to consider 1t each
day thereafter until the treaty is dis
posed of. Before the senate convened
friends Of the treaty did some pretty
active work, which was continued for
some time after the session opened
Supporters Of the treaty are today very
hopeful of securing the 60 votes neces-
sary to ratify. The Republicans will
stand a unit. In this category are
Senators Hoar and Morrill,, who have
been leaning against annexation. 1t
is claimed the Populists will be divided
The majority of the Democrats are
against ratification.
AS has already been stated In these
dispatches. there is no doubt whatever
that the situation in China is largely
responsible for the improved prospects
of the treaty. However, Senators
White, Gray and Pettigrew will fight
the treaty to the very end.
Representative Grosvenor returned
rather unexpectedly from Ohio today,
and while he asserts he came to take
part in the civil service discussion, yet
it is stated here that he will confer
with the president tomorrow morning
with regard to Hanna's candidacy. If
Hanna cannot be elected on the first
ballot he will, 1t is said, gracefully re-
tire in favor of some other candidate
who will stand close by the adminis-
tration This matter will be thorough
" discussed when the president and
Grosvenor meet tomorrow.
It's whispered on the streets tonight
that, notwithstanding the Indianapolis
monetary commission will appear be-
fore the committee on banking next
Wednesday to advocate the passage of
a bill embodying their views, the
chances of such a measure becoming
a law is out of the question. Chair
man Walkers bill will be presented

of Tennessee, in speaking for the Dem
ocrats, prefers the bill which Walker
hopes to present.

Pacific settlements are practically

to the volume of currency in circula-

Hanna should be defeated" said Gen
Grosvenor, "it will be by a combination
of Democrats and boiling Republicans,
which will give the Democrats the SEN
ator for the long or the short term.
They will not furnish the votes with

still maintain that Hanna will be re-
