CARS RUNNING IN CLEVELAND.
The Union Men Make 1t Unpleasant
For the NOnuniOnists.

For the NOnuniOnists.
CLEVELAND, June 20. - Only one
outbreak of violence attended the re-
sumption of traffic on all the lines of the
Big Consolidated street railway yester-
day. There was objection in some parts
of the city to the retention of the non
union men who were kept by the com
pany. A party of % men assembled
near the Brooklyn bridge, just south of
the city, and whenever a car came along
with a nonunion crew the passengers
were asked to disembark and wait for
car manned by a union crew. In most
cases the passengers did as requested.
Finally a nonunion conductor undertook
to argue with the crowd, and he was
promptly struck over the head with a
club and he and the motorman driven
away. The mob refused to permit the
car to move until union crew came
along and pushed it to the barns.
AS a rule the old men were glad the
strike was settled, though there was
some grumbling because the nonunon
men were kept. 1t is predicted that all
the nonunion men will be glad to leave
the city within 80 days, though the COM
pany imposed as one of the conditions of
the agreement for the settlement of the
trouble that all the new men should be
treated with consideration by the old en-
plOyeeS.

Civil Service Reform
The executive order Of May 6, 1896,
extending the limits of the classified
service, brought within the operation
of the civil service law and rules
nearly all Of the executive civil service
not previously classified. Some of the
incIusions were found wholly illogical
and unsuited to the work Of the sew
eral departments. The application
of the rules to many of the
places so included was found
to result in friction and embarrass-
ment After long and very careful
consideration it became evident to the
heads of the departments, responsible
for their efficiency, that in order to re-
move these difficulties and promote an
efficient and harmonious administra-
ton certain amendments were neces-
sary. These amendments were pro-
mulgated by me in executive order,
dated May 20, 1899. The principal pur-
competitive examination certain places
involving fiduciary responsibilities or
duties of a strictly confidential, scien-
tific, or executive character, which it
was thought might better be filled
either by non-competitive examination,
or in the discretion of the appointing
officer, than by open competition. The
order provides for the filling of much
larger number of places, mainly in the
outside service of the war department,
by what is known as the registration
system, similar to those which have
produced such admirable results in the
maynard service.
All of the amendments had for their
main object more efficient and salts
factory administration of the system
of appointments established by the
civil service law. The results at
tanned show that under their opera
ton the public service has improved
and that the civil service system is re-
lieved of many Objectionable features
Death of Washington.
The 18th of December will be the one
hundredth anniversary of the death OF
Washington and the president is glad
to learn that in many parts OF the
country the people will fittingly OBJ
serve this historic anniversary.

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.

Washington, Dec. Appropriate
tribute to the memory of the late Vice
President Hobart was paid by the SEN
ate at the first session of the 56th con-
gress The session lasted only IS
minutes. After the adoption OF the
usual routine resolutions and admins
tration to new members of the oaths OF
office, Senator Sewell of New Jersey
presented fitting resolutions upon the
death of the vice president. The reso-
lutions were ordered communicated to
the house of representatives and the
session on motion of Senator Kean OF
New Jersey was suspended. In the
course of the proceedings Senator Car
ter of Montana presented memorial
from some of the members of the Mon
tana legislature against the validity or
the 'pretended election of William A.
Clark of the senate" The assertion
is made that by corruption and bribery
Clark was enabled to secure enough
votes to compass his election as SEN
ator. The petition names a number
of members of the legislature with
the sums they are alleged to have re-
ceived, aggregating according to the
petition about 100000. Carter also
presented a petition signed by Gov
Smith and others asking for a full
early hearing of the charges against
Clark.
Washington, Dec. 4.-Enormous
crowds witnessed the opening scenes in
the house. The principal interest CEN
tered in the disposition of the case of
Roberts, mormon representative from
Utah The program outlined by the
republican leaders at the conference of
Friday night was partially carried out.
Objection to the administration of the
oath to Roberts was entered by Mr..
Taylor of Ohio AS had been pre-
dicted, Roberts stepped aside without
protest except to ask if in SO doing he
waived any of his rights. To this the
speaker responded in the negative.
There was no protest from any quar-
ter against the objection to the admin
istration of the oath of Mr.. Roberts.
Mr.. Taylor offered a resolution to refer
the case to a special committee but by
mutual arrangement consideration of
the resolution was postponed for the
day that routine business in connec-
ton with the organization might be
transacted. The election of Speaker
Henderson, his induction into Office
the appointment of the usual commit
tees to wait upon the president and
the seat drawing contest, with its US
ual amusing features, went off without
hitch. The only other feature out
of the ordinary was the adoption of the
Reed rules for the present congress
by strict party vote. A joint COM
mittee notified the president that con-
gress was ready for business. A short
and sharp debate occurred on the adop-
ton of the Reed rules, Bailey (dem.,
Tex.) opposing it, as did also Richard
son (dem., TENN.
