Guarding Against Favoritism or Prej- AN IMPORTANT CHANGE DISCUSSED AT SATCRDAY'S CONFERENCE—PROPOSED INCREASE OF THE CEN- TRAL BOARD OF EXAMINERS TO THIRTEEN MEM- BERS. At the conference between the Civil-service Commissioners and the secretaries of the local Doards of different cities last Saturday the secre- tarles favored raising the minimum as the stand- ard of eligibility to certification from 65 to 75, ex- cept as to such places as require special or techni- cal qualification. They also favored the discon- Unuance of the forty-five-year limitation as to age of clerks in general, except fa spectal cases, and also raise the minimum Mmitation of age of fetter carriers from sixteen to twenty-one. ‘the most mportant question considered was a proposition to increase the central board of exiun- ination at Washington by the addition of mem- bers from some of the local boards of large cities. This proposition was submitted by Commissioner Overly. The central bourd here consists of seven members aetailed from the Executive Depart- ments. Itis believed that this plan will remove all chi or intimations of partiality or preju- dice in the marking of examination papers by the central board. The plan has not been fully ma- tured, though the idea of the Increase was unani- mousiy adopted by the conference. The subject Was referred to a committee consisting of Mr. Mason, of the New York custom-house board; Mr. Post, of the New York, post-office board, and Mr. Donovan, of the’ Chicago custém-house board, who are to draft a report set~ Ung forth the economy and the advan- tages of the plan of increase. As the present central board consists of men of the several ex- ecutive departments, it is claimed that it fs unfair to have them mark the examination papers of em- ployes of the Departments, as the members of the central board come in contact with these em- ployes, and may have reasons toelther favor them or prejudice them. The same objection applies to the local boards in marking candidates in their respective localities, When the plan shall have been consummated It will probably add six mem- bers Of various local boards to the central exam- ining board at Washington. ‘These six members will be permanenuy detailed, and will reside in Washington. That will Increase the central board to thirteen, seven of them from the Departments here, and six from other cities, It isprobable that ‘the six will be made up by taking one each from the customs and post-office boards of New York, ‘one each from the customs and post-office boards of Philadelphia, one from one of the local boards of Baltimore, and one from Chicago, © The central board of thirteen thus constituted will have the marking of all examination papers, and it 1s claimed that under this system therecan be no ground forany charge of favoriteism or prejudice. A FAIR TAX. In regard to the recent examination of clerks of the Quartermaster-General’s Office for promotion by the civil service examination a Stak reporter ‘Wasto-day informed bymembersof the Civil Service Board that only three of the clerks failed to pass. ‘There was but one lady in the Class and she got the highest average. As has been expl io ‘TRE Stak the rating of the efficiency of each clerk examined for promotion 1s left to the head of the division to which the clerk belongs. “In every case, except one” said one of the Civil Service Com- missioners “tne rating of eMictency to the clerk by the head of the division, tallled with the result of the examination. That is the {judgment ‘of the head of the division corresponded with the test made here, showing that the examination was a fair test. In only one case did the rating of the efMiciency save the candidate. In every other case the result of the examination and the Judgment Of the chief of the division agreed.” WHAT IS SAID AT THE WAR DEPARTMENT. At the War Department also, 1t 1s stated that but three clerks of the second and third classes of the Quartermaster-General's office failed to pass the examination for promotion. The examination popes. of clerks of the first class, who were exam- ined afterward, have not yet been carefully con- sidered, and nothing definite is known about the result. The paragraph in Saturday’s Star about these examinations expressed, as stated, the opinions of the clerks, based upon the regular ex- amination required of them without any defi- nite knowledge of the rating for efficiency given by the respective chiefs, THE LADIES EXAMINED. Nearly all the ladies examined belonged to the first class, and tt was in the last examination, the results of which are not known, that the great nervousness was displayed. One of the clerks who was examined ts authority for the statement that a lady fainted, and a number were so badly fright- ened that they cried and showed in various Ways their high state of nervousness.

Facts Which Underlay the Panic of Friday. PERSONAL SPITE THE MOTIVE FOR A GREAT DEAL IN STOCES—HOW JAY GOULD MADE MONEY AND GRATIFIED HIS ANIMOSTY BY BRARING HIS OWN ‘SECURITIES. Special Correspondence of THE EvExrxa Stan. ‘New York, June 27.—The financial squall that broke over Wall street on Friday last was, in many respects, unique among events of its kind. ‘The mere statement of the facts 1s enough at once foarouse the liveliest speculation as to its real causes, For itis apparent that the stereotyped explanation of the great operators, “lack of con- ‘fidence on the part of the pubic,” is a meaning- less phrase, intended in this instance to cloak Motives and distract attention from the clues that may lead to the revelation of the truth. Here, brieMy, Was a season of general business pros” perity, a will to invest on the part of the public that was by no means rash, healthy ac ivity in all enterprises, railroad showings partic. Wariy satisfactory, and then a tremendous break in the prices of some of the very strongest stocks represented in their chief holdings by the most powerful and conservative man in the street. It came So unex] that the brokers in the Ex- change had no Ume to think how queer It was; they could only throw up their hat and howl; and now most of them are so tickled to think that: they got out of tt with nothing much worse than their howling for their iright that they have hardly begun to consider seriously how very queer tt alfwas, And the causes were queerer than the facts. It ts like & royal romance with money kings for the personages. It mnay best be old In the Words of an operator Whose experience and acquatatance tn the street are remarkably ex- nded. “To begin with,” he said, “it must be understooa, that no great operation ini stocks can be consumn- mated unless Various conditions are ripe for ll, and when they are it depends upon the sagacity of ‘solae Iman of great resources to push his scheme to a conclusion. Now, then, there are two causes for the Friday panic; ‘one a normal business cause, without which it is not at all probuble the others could have effected anything, and a personal cause. ‘The business cause 13 plain enough. The reserve in the banks to-day is a little upward of Unree militons. A year ago 1t was fourteen mil- lions, and a year or two before that {U was sixty millions. That means that the money market is comparatively stringent. And that was the one co_.dition which made it possible for Mr. Jay Gould and Hou. Russell to worry Mr. Cyrus W. Field and incidentally to punish Ives, Stainer & Co. for thetr audacity in attempting to rig up rail- road deals. It is a fact that ali the denluls in the World Will not alter that Field and Gouid are not on good terms, and that Sage sides with Gould. if anything were realiy necded to make one believe uuls it could be found in Wi con E. Connor’s reiterated statement that Field never keeps bis Word, that he 1s a tricky man to deal witu, &. 43 ‘Conor 13 Mr. Gouid’s direct representative, such words are significant. Now as to this flurry and itsimmediate personal causes, ‘they date back to the ume of George Gouid’s mar- rhige with Edith Kingdon, the actress. Funny, isu't it? but it's so. Field, you know, 18 a good deal of a snob; he likes nothing better than asso- Clating With nobliity of the tUtied kind, and he considered it aitogether a breach of caste law that young Gould should marry an actress, He ex- pressed ints opinion to this effect without reserve at the time, and Mr. Gould, sr., was profoundly tr ritated, ‘T’.1s, with the magnate’s long-cherished opinion of Mr.’ Field as voiced by Mr. Connor, Was enough lo make a rivalry that has had not only business hostility, but personal spite in it. It has been concealed, because It has not been for the interest of Field to adiit any hard feeling, as he is the weaker party, and it has not been in the in- terests of Mr, Gould’s desire for revenge ata sea- sonable opportunity to expose his attitude. ‘The Way the »iow Was struck, tueretore, was Unis, and it partakes of the old, old way in witch Gould and Sage have for Yeats manipulated the market, hese two giants borrowed all the money in the Market to staré with. Then they caked in their joans, aud Mr. Gould naively suid tn explaining Uhat act that he found he could joan bls money to Detter advantage than would result from letting 1t lie where 1c was. ‘The banks meanwille wuere iade to do their part in the operation.

Accordingly this was do: ‘the banks imme- diately said to their “We wish you ‘WoUId not ieeepMabbastan 90 much to the fore as security; we are holding more than we want; please substitute some otuer lie of stock for 1} ‘hat was che great starter; men found that tras Sage'stura to act. On Friday morning he neld was Sage’s turn to act. On 1 10,000 Shares Of Manhattan that he had told Mr. Field should not be sold. Mr. Sage sold every share of them.

It ts ap- Parent, Of course, that, 1t was the aim of Gowd und Sage to wreck Field by giving him a bigger accomplish. task than he could And as a matter of fact no man Was ever so bear a failure as Cyrus on that Friday afternoon, He Rad to go to the straits to raise money for purchasing Man- fittan, and waen be purchased ft he Lud te do.s0 ata loss Of a Malt a muon or $0. That he did yarchase it 1s showa by the action of W. P. Wight Eo,, a firm that bought 9,000 shares of sianbut- tan on Friday. Field is the only man who could have given such an order, and thougn the opera- tion Was somewhat Cloaked it is clear, for iu the firm of Wight & Co, 13 Arthur Clafih, a former associate and mend of 8. V. White, and White 1s Field's principal broker. And Fivid's straights are Shown by the tact that he pledyed for mouey on that day certificates of stock issued in 1884 In which there was not a pinhole. A pinhole indi- cutes that The certificate has been used as security Tor a loan, and the fact that Field had to go down into his pockets for security of that kind ts re- markably significant, Now don’t think for a min- ute that Mr. Gould or Mr. Sage lost anything by the depression of this stock. “They bouguvit in at low figures when tuey had carried thelr game as far as Was practicable. Andthe incidental tumble given to the other Gould stocks resulted in just the same‘ thing. These two men made a great deal by the tura, the bears of the market, and there Were some like Henry Clews, made a good thing incidentally, and sir. Field was the princi- patsufferer.

Manhattan opened 7 per cent lower than Saturday's close at 130, and rallied 3 per cent, but fell back again to the opening figure on small sales. The news from London of a weak market and high rates for money there exercised a de ra influence, and prices all around are af- fected by it. London 1s not trading elther Way in the market, and the bear pool is trying to break prices in stocks where there is no sign of support. ‘There Was an active trading in the early dealings, with Te Pacific Mail, St. Paul apd Western Union in the lead.
