Mr.. Daniel then continued his speech on
the railroad rate measure, repeating briefly
his objections to Mr.. Bailey's proviso for
the nonsuspension by the courts of the
orders of the Interstate Commerce commits
sion.
In cases where the courts have suspended
the rates of the commission, Mr.. Daniel
suggested that a substantial bond be re-
quired of the railroads. He took issue with
statements that review would mean a re-
trial so far as the taking of testimony was
concerned, for he declared that the Inter
state Commerce commission was the most
competent tribunal to take such testimony.
The rate bill was then temporarily laid
aside and the army appropriation bill
taken UP.
An important amendment to the bill was
one authorizing the establishment Of a
general depot for supplies at Fort Mason,
San Francisco. and appropriating sL5OOOOO
for the purpose. OF the amount appropri-
ated $4,000 is made Immediately available.
Another amendment appropriates $9OOOOO
for cable from Key West to Panama via
Guantanamo, Cuba.
Consideration of the bill was not con-
cluded when at 5:@ p. m the senate went
into executive session and at 80 p. m. ad-
journed.

ACTIVITY IN POLITICS
CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION
WARNS Employees.
Annual Report Just Issued Also Says
Merit System is Growing
in Favor.

The annual report of the United States
civil service commission, just issued states
that there is still too great disposition on
the part OF persons in the classified serv-
ice to participate actively in politics In
spte Of the executive orders issued from
time to time.
The sentiment in favor OF the merit sys-
TEN is steadily growing. the commission
says, not only In Congress, but among the
states. four OF which have adopted civil
service laws while the charters of a con-
siderable number of municipalities now
contain provisions for appointment through
competitive examination. The report states
that in the federal service there has been
an increasing spirit OF cooperation on the
part of heads Of executive departments and
officials .
The commission held during the year $50
examinations and a total of l22,O3i per-
sons were examined. of whom 950;s5 passed
and II ST. were appointed. decrease or
5000 examined and an increase of l,iSf
appointed. From 20 10 90 per cent of the
highest cllgibles declined appointments for
various reasons, principally on account OF
the low salaries offered by the govern
ment.
"Thc government cannot hope to compete
with private employers unless 1t pays sala-
ries that measure up fairly well to the
standard Of private business, says the re-
port in calling attention to the difficulty
the commission has experienced during the
past year in securing elgibles for the post
ONCE service In the various parts of the
country. notably in the west and south. or
the ~ ,iIiS rural carriers the government
has found it necessary to remove only l6I
Canal Commission.
The commission states that 1t was neces-
sary to allow the isthmian canal commits
sion considerable latitude on account of the
peculiar conditions under which its work
is done. and in the absence of eligible reg
listers many temporary appointments were
authorized, which were subsequently made
permanent by executive order in cases
where the employees were found qualified.
The commission calls attention to the re-
ports received from the departments with
respect TO the number and efficiency OF en-
ployes over siXty-five years of age. Only
per cent OF the superannuated employees
entered through the examination of the
commission. The commission states that
the apparent loss to the government
through lack of efficiency, due to superan-
nuation, as shown by the reports of the de-
parments. Is slightly over 100000 per an
nurl In Washington The figures showing
the probable loss outside of Washington
have not been completed. There are 1928
such employees in Washington, of whom
93t were veterans.
