to-day that there would be no modi-
fication of the questions which the

United to applicants taking the civil

taking the examination, and probably
about rs great interest among rail-
way officials.

this the applicant is requested to In
dictate the manner in which the rail-
road may evade or violate laws regu-
lating interstate commerce or regula-
tons and rulings Of the Interstate

! 1t Is the latter question which has
caused a protest The protest has
fallen not upon deaf ears exactly, but
upon ears which have not needed, for
the commissioners have considered
the kicks, and decided that the qnes-
tons prepared for the Civil Service
Commission shall stand. It Is adj
mitted that many intending appli-
cants will not take the examination
in view of the embarrassing question
relating to the manner in which the
law may be evaded or violated.
About thirty places are to be filled.

fayorably entertained by the super

Il was not approved generally al home.
