Kansas is the only state that has
civil service rules and regulations for

New, York, which has a civil service
commission. Some time before having
the rules printed in pamphlet form the
state board correspondent with the
boards of different states and with the
exception of New York the only rule
any of the states had was one forbid

The White House,

WaSniIlB lOH, feD. IS, ISVo.
 Sir-In reply to your letter of the 18th instant the president directs me to state to you that he had the superintendent of police of the District of Columbia, Major Sylvester, make careful inves- tigation of the circumstances connected with the arrest of Mrs. Morris for dis orderly conduct at the executive office, and the superintendent submitted to the president all the affidavits of the persons whom he had examined, The president carefully went over Major Sylvester's report and the aff1davits, and also personally saw Major Sylves- ter and some of the persons making the affidavits. He came to the conclusion that the arrest was justified, and that the force used in making the arrest was caused by the resistance offered by Mrs Morris to the officers in the discharge of their duty, and was no greater than was necessary to make the arrest ef- fective.
 Under these circumstances the presi- dent does not consider that the officers are properly subject to blame. He was also satisfied that the kindest thing that could be done to Mrs. Morris and her kinsfolk was to refrain from giving any additional publicity to the circum- stanes surrounding the case.
 Yours truly, William Loeb, IT,,
 Secretary to the President.

NO APOLOGY TO MORRIS.
PRESIDENT UPHOLDS WHITE
 HOUSE OFFICERS

Mrs. Minor Morris Arrest Found on
 Investigation to Have Been Justified, and No Greater Force Used Than Her
 Resistance Made Necessary--Demand
 of Dr. Morris for Apology and Secre-
 tary LOeb's Reply Made Public.
 Washington, Feb. 21-Dr. Minor Nor ris, whose wife several weeks ago was ejected from the White House, where she had gone to present alleged griev- ances to the president, to-day gave out for publication the correspondence which recently passed between himself and the president regarding the case Dr. Morris demanded public apol ogy of the president for this outrage on womanhood and common decency." Secretary Loeb replied to the letter, saying that an investigation by the chief of police showed that the arrest was justified, and that the kindest act to Mrs. Morris and her kinsfolk was to refrain from giving the case additional publicity. The letters follow:
 To the President of the United States:
 Sir-Having waited patiently num- Der of weeks, that you might have am- pie time to ascertain all the circum- stances connected with the insult re- gently offered my wife at the White House, and that you might make some expression of deprecation which would no +,rro11v ha aYpaotad if ia now incllm- bent upon me as husband and citizen to demand a public apology for this outrage on womanhood and common | decency.
 It is unthinkable that such brutality would be tolerated anywhere in this country, but, above all, in the White House. That my wife has been con- fined to her bed six weeks from the shock and injuries of this damnable treatment is bad enough, but I can say to you in all calmness that had the original orders from the White House been carried out as to her longer incar- ceration her life would have been sac riticed.
 It is therefore incumbent upon me to repeat my urgent request that you take action at once suitable to the circum- stances which have shocked the entire nation. Respectfully,
 Minor Morris.
