FARLEY ON D|SM|SSALS
Says Special Agents Should Be
in Exempt Class.
CALLS MEN inefficient
Excise Commissioner Sends Let.
ter to General George B. Loud,
Of the Grand Army.
LRy Telegraph TO TIE Tribune

Albany. April 23.-In letter to General
George b. Loud, chairman OF the memorial
committee of the Grand Army Of the Re-
public. who protested against the removal
Of veteran. for fourteen years a special
excise agent. State Excise Commissioner
Farley has explained the reasons for his
dismissal week ago Of twenty-eight spe-
ciai agents. About a dozen Of these men
were veterans OF the Civil War and all .x-
cept two Of them were appointed from
competitive list
Commissioner Farley contends that these
men are really the alter egos OF the Com
missioner. They are so close to him. he
maintains. that they should be in the ex-
empt class and not men to be appointed
from any competitive list Aside from
that he declares that the men dismissed
were virtually unable to perform properly
the duties Of their Office. They were in
most cases so old as to be unable to obtain
evidence Of violations Of the excise law. he
says. and had been in the service so long
that they were known to liquor dealers and
their value to the department was mini
mized.
Tho Grand Army is up in arms over this
sioner Farley It intends TO fight the case
through the courts The protest Of Cen
eral Loud Is only one gun in the fight
Lewis f Griffith has been retained to rep-
resent the veterans in the battle they eX-
pect to make against the carving out Of
Commissioners Farley's orders Of dismissal
They assert his discharge Of these agents
is merely another Democratic patronage
grab
The fact that practically all the sixty
agents now in the department are Repub-
licans. Commissioner Farley saws. will war
rant the contention that ANY action may
take is for political reasons" He saws he

forded TO Civil War veterans By the Civil
friend Of the veterans would want them to
be kept in Jobs they no longer could fill.
Referring to G. A. Weaver. a veteran whom
General Loud mentioned specifically. Com
missioner Farley said he was incompetent.
For long time the only work he had done.
the Commissioner said was to serve papers
from the New York Office. He added
He is certainly too old to incur the risk
and danger which are necessary in securing
for Illegal sales IF the Ranes law is 10
he properly enforced re should have some
special agents who are not known to the
