services rendered without authority of
the civil service law"
Since the above was written the
comptroller of the treasury has decid-
ed that the salaries of persons appoint
ed in the manner adopted by Collector
White may be legally paid, and has
practically upheld the authority OF col
lectors of internal revenue to remove
and appoint at will, regardless of civil
service regulations.
The report of the Commission, which
covers the fiscal year 1898, shows that
eight civil service examinations were
held in West Virginia, which were TAX
en- by 129 persons in all. Sixty-slx
males and fourteen females passed, and
forty-three males and six females fail
ed. Forty-nine were examined for po-
sitions in the postal service, of whom
twenty-six passed and twenty-three
failed. West Virginia is entitled to
seventy-eight positions in the depart
mental service at Washington, but has
SO far received but sixty. The ap-
pointments to the classified depart
mental service from West Virginia in
1898 were as follows: J. Frederick
Fuss, Berkeley county, boookkeeper,
navy yard; Homer C. Lemon, Mineral
county, teamster, naval observatory;
Elva Wentzell, Jefferson, bureau of en-
craving and printing.
The next general civil service exam
nations will be held in West Virginia
at Charleston, October 20; and Park
ersburg, October 10 and 20.

CUBAN BONDS
Are Practically Repudiated BY the
Spanish Government United States
Not Liable.

NEW YORK, September 21.-A spec
ial to the Journal and Advertiser from
Washington says: The decision by the
Spanish cabinet that the interest on the
Cuban bonds must be paid by the Cuban
government is a virtual announcement
that Spain will not pay the interest and
that the bonds are valueless. Involved
il this announcement is the condition
that there may be an attempt to en-
tangle Congress in discussion OF the
responsibility of the United States gov
eminent for the interest during the
American occupation of the island.
The action of the Spanish cabinet was
referred to the State Department, from
which the following authoritative state
ment was obtained: THE United States
commissioners at Paris never at any
time or in any degree agreed that the
United States should become respons-
ible for SPANS Cuban debt. There
never was any understanding that any
other party should be responsible, for
that debt than Spain herself. The rea-
son the United States did not assume
the debt or any part of it was that the
debt was incurred almost wholly by
Spain to crush the several instructions.
The United States might have assum-
ed to guarantee this debt if the funds
named had been expended in internal
improvements in Cuba. This govern
ment, as is well known, consented to
pay Spain $20,000,000 in the case of the
Philippine islands, solely on the ground
that approximately that amount had
been expended by Spain in improve
ments in the islands.
''The United States, therefore, has as
sumed no obligations for and has no in
terest whatever in the declarations of
the Spanish cabinet on the debts OF
Spain or how they shall be paid. The
present declaration looks like repudi-
alton of the debt, principal and inter-
est"
The State Department argues that
when Spain relinquished her sover-
eighty in Cuba she relieved that island
of debts contracted to keep her in bond
age. This construction, it is held, is
affirmed in the notes which passed be-
tween the two disputing commissions
when the treaty was under discussion
in Paris,

Special to the Register.
WASHINGTON, d. c., September 81.
I'm the fifteenth annual report of the
Civil Service Commission, the follow
ing reference is made to the matter of
appointments in the Parkersburg in
ternal revenue district under Collector
Whites administration:
During the period from July I,
1897, to December 81, 1898, there were
three removals and two designations
from positions subject to competitive
examination, and four removals from
excepted positions, making total of
more than rs per cent of the entire force
separated from the service.
In the Commissions Fourteenth
Report, at pages 313 and 314, the adj
ADMINISTRATION of the civil service rules
in this district was briefly discussed.
at page 313 the following statement
appears:
Collector White, it is said, an
nOunced through the press over his
own signature, his intention to relieve
from duty the deputy collectors, guag-
ers and storekeepers commissioned
during the incumbency of the former
collector and to fill the vacancies thus
created by the reinstatement of ex-Un-
ion soldiers
This statement was made by the
Commission upon authority of letter
from a prominent public man of West
Virginia. Collector White, however,
on September u, 1898, called the Com
missions attention to this paragraph
and denied having made the statement
attributed to him therein. The Com
mission therefore desires to withdraw
the statement printed above.
"The collectors report of changes in
the service for the month of May,
1898, included several temporary ap-
pointments to positions subject to COM
petitiye examination. The Commits
mission having then an ample register
of eligibles from which regular APP
pointment might have been made, the
matter was made subject of CORES
pondence with the collector and the
Treasury Department with a view to
ascertaining the, authority under which
such appointments had been made. No
authority for the appointments being
shown, however, the facts in the case
were reported to the Auditor for the
Treasury Department, with view to
the disallowance of compensation for
