The Class Requiring No Examii for Eligibility to the Clerical Class —Those Exempt From Tests, General Wilson, chief of the Engineer Corps of the army, has issued a circular giving instructions to the officers of the corps regarding the employment of men »n public works under the civil service regu- lations. The order placing tze employes under the civil service was issued in Mav, 1896. Since the order was issued there have been many conferences between Gen- eral Wilson and his assistants on one hand and the civil service commission on the other in an effort to adjust all differences, so that the employment of men under the new regulations would work smoothly and satisfactorily. The regulations now issued are largely devoted to details and are be- lieved to meet all the objections that have been made to the new system. Provision is made for the selection of temporary em- Ployes for positions where there are no eligibles or in case persons on the eligible list do not possess the requisite qualitica- tions. These temporary employes may en- ter the service by passing the prescrib=d examinations. Civil service local boar have been established in each engineer di trict that examinations may be had for filling vacancies. Provision is made for the selection of emergency employes throigh the chief of engineers and the civil secv- ice commission. One of the largest class of employes who require peculiar qualific tions for the work are junior engineers, which grade includes inspectors, subin- spectors, overseers, suboverseers, surveyors, hydrographers, topographers, transitmen, levelmen, sexiant, observers, computers, rodmen and recorders. Relative to these officers the circular of General Witson says: “The eligible lists of junior engineers will be prepared as heretofore by the civil serv- ice commission, and by a recent decision of the commission, the list showing the qualifications or fitness of the various eli- gibles for particular work will be furnished to a central board, appointed by the civil service commission, in the office of the chief of engineers. Hereafter certifications will be made to the chief of engineers by this central board. In making applications for ‘junior engineers,’ officers and agents should be careful to designate the particu- lar qualifications that the appointee should Possess, in order that the proper persons may be selected for certification.” No Examination Required. As the examinations required for the junior engineer positions are of a more comprehensive character than those for the clerical positions, the civil service com- mission has decided that employes occu- pying any of the junior engineer positions in the classified service, for which edu- cational tests are required, are eligible for assignment to the clerical grades without examination. Such transfers can here- after be effected with the approval of the chief of engineers. Draftsmen may be secured from the spe- cial list of eligibles prepared by the civil service commission, or from the junior en- gineer list, as the local officer may elect. If selected fromthe latter list, the ap- pointee is eligible to assignment or promo- tion to any of the junior engineer grades without examination. The provision applies to junior engineers and draftsmen who were in the service when the civil service law went into effect. No Educational Test Required. Gen. Wilson also says: “Appreciating the fact that many persons, by reason of prac- tical experience, possess the peculiar quali- ficatior necessary to perform satisfactor- ily certain duties required of employes in the engineer department, and who are not competent to pass an educational exan tion, the civil service commission « ed to the organization of the second ge class, for which no educattonal tes. is re- quired. The employes in this class are eu im- erated as follows: Inspectors, subinspec- tors, overseers suboverseers, whose pay does not exceed $100 per month; deputy in- spectors and masters, deputy inspectors and pilots, deputy inspectors and mates, masters, pilots, mates, engineers of steam vessels and other similar positions which in private employ require a license from the office of steamboat inspection, when the applicant is licensed; all the mechani- cal trades, master workmen, master labor- ers, balers, blasiers, boarding masters, boat- men, steermen, cement finishers, cement testers, cement workers, chainmen, con- crete finishers, cranesmen, divers, dredge runners, dredge engineers, elevator con- ductors, gardeners, gauge readers,leadsmen, lock masters and’ assistant lock masters, lock and bridge tenders, weavers, weavers of mats, motormen, including all steam en- gineers not licensed engineers; pile drivers, powder men, riggers, rodmen and recard- ers, at $75 per month or less; stewards, strikers, telegraph and telephone linemen, blacksmiths’ helpers, calkers’ helpers, car penters’ helpers, machinists’ —_ helpers, watchmen, including custodians, valve tenders, trackmen, fort keepers, torpedo station’ keepers, light keepers, porters, messengers, janitors and similar positions not specified herein. General Wilson expresses the belief that no difficulty will be experienced under the new system in securing the best and most suitable employes. ——__ + e+_- ARMY NOT!

As Representative of an En: orn Railway He Submits a Briet « the Attorney Genero* Ex-Secretary Carlisle has submitted t, Attorney General McKenna a bricf taining bis views on section 22 of the n new tariff act relating to the imposition of the 10 per cent discriminating du on goods Imported from foreign countries througin ccrtiguous territory. Mr. Carlisle rep sents the Boston and Maine railroad and appeared with former Assistant Secretary Himilin, representing the associated bound of trade, at the Merchants’ Associatior of Boston. Mr. Carlisle contends that there three possible constructions of According to the first of these construe. tions it was designed to encourage Amer- an shipping interests by discriminating against goods produced in non-contigu are only the law. countries and brought into a contiguo: country by vessels not of the United State: nd thence imy States. A con: iderabl is devoted to a discrssion of this proposi- tion, in the course of which the facts on conrection with the origin and tment of the section as it now stands are stated and commented upon. He concludes that the act relates to all goods act im- ported in els not of the Unit and not entitled to the benetits ¢ cial treaties, and, secondly, to which, being the produc uous country, are imported into a c uous country in vessels not of the Un States, and thence imported into this cou try in wholesale quantities. Mr. Carlisle contends that if the for geing is not the true meaning of the se tion as amended, then the only other a missible construction of the language the section is that the provision wa signed to discriminate against the whole- sale trade between the people of the Unit- ed States and the peoples of Mexico and Canada in goods produced in non-contix- uovs countries and imported into this ccuntry frem Mexico or Canada. His con- tention on this point is that the discrim- i.ating duty applies to all goods imported ia vessels not of the United States and not entitled te the benefits of treaty stipula- tions; ang. condly, to all goods produ in a non-contiguous country in wholesale quantities, no matter what may have b the character of the vessel in which t were brought to such contiguous country. According to this construction, the object of the law was to discriminate against goods imported into Canada and held there in store or in bonded warehouses, to be afterward thrown upon the markets of the United States in whoiesale quantities, which would make our law as to all these goods conform io the existing law of Can- ada in relation to tea and green coffee im- Pcrted from the United States into Canada. The third possible construction is that it imposes a discriminating duty of 10 per cent upon all goods, dutiable and free, which are the product of non-contigu ccuntries, and which merely pass th the territory or jurisdiction of Mexic Canada on their way to the United rted into the United portion of the brief all goods t of a non-contig- of fle- from their places of departy for the United States. This construc he in- sists, is wholly unreasonable and contrary to the real intention of Congress. It would impose the discriminating duty upon goods simply because they are carried through a contiguous ecuntry; it would remedy po existing evil; it would inflict immense in- jury wpon our railroad and other transy tation interests, any corresponding benefit to_ the of the people, and would undovbtedly provoke retaliation ov the part of the dominion government.

A colored boy sixteen years old named John C. Lewis, was arrested teday by De- tectives Muller and Helan and locked up on a charge of larceny. The boy was in the employ of Carl Von Rodenstein, the bicycle dealer on 45th street, and when his cash drawer had been robbed several times he became more particular, and ar- ranged the drawer so that it would not be an easy matter to open it. Saturday a $10 bill was put in the drawer, which was only partly closed. Somebody who made an effort to take the bill succeeded in get- ting only a piece of it, and this piece was redeemed at the treasury Monday. The detectives investigated the case and traced the bill to Lewis, who had the piece of mosey taken to the treasury by a friend. His arrest resulted, and he told the officers that he had found the piece of bill. To- morrow he will be given an opportunity to tell his side of the affair in court. ee IOWA REPUBLICAN TICKET.
