A committee from several of the state re- publican associatiéns called at the White House yesterday Agternocn and presented a petition to thé “President, asking for a modification of the civil service rules. In- cluded in the delegation were B. F. Craw- shaw of Pennsylvania, W. 8. Bramhall of New York, ‘Felt Letts of Brooklyn, Capt. MUNYON CURING HUNDREDS Rogers of New Jersey, Col. L. B. Butler of | Sick and Suffering Receiving Free Illinois, Dr. W. L. Robbins of Missouri and G. D. Winchell-of Iowa. These gentlemen represented associations from the states named. They we?éaccompanied by Messrs. R. Graham, 8.09: Block, H. M. Sawtelle, Alexander Chriatie and Simon Wolf of the National Republican Club. The petition was presented | r. Wolf in a brief ad- dress. It is 8 by the presidents. of state associations claiming a total mem- bership of 1,000,000 voters, and sets forth the alleged injustice done by the executive order of May 6, 1896, by President Cleve- land extending the operations of the civil service. The petition represented that in- justice was done by the appointment of Wemocrats. in the places .of -republicans without examination just. previous to the issue of the order in question. The men dismissed at that time are now ineligible for reinstatement, being barted out by the limitation of one: year. The petition asks that the order be modified so as to permit the reappointment of these men, without examination. The Presideat informed the delegation that he was considering the general question of the civil service rules, and if he found it advisable to modify them in any respect he would bear their wishes in mind. TIVES AS TO PLACES. PREROG Postmaster General Gary Will Adhere to Party Usages. Much misunderstanding has arisen over repor:s that have been quite generally cir- cvlated that the patronage privileges of senators have heen extended, and that their indorsement will be required on all post office applications. This is erroneous,. and Postmaster General Gary has had frequent cccaston recently to correct this impression. It is announced by him that the policy that has been practiced heretofore in the dis- tribution. of offices will be followed by this administration, and the prerogatives en- Joyed by representatives in the past will be continued. Representatives will have the naming of the post offices in their district as a general rule, while senators can name thelr home oflices:and some large cities, on an amicable understanding between the senator and representative.
