The civil service order issued by _lhc President to-day cxempting nearly 5000 from the civil service great interest in Cali- Federal positions will be read with fernia, especially by those members of the Federal brigade who have only held on to their jobs because they were thus protected. Politics and personal favorit- fem will cut some figure now, and many of these' employes have good cause for fcar and trembling. It is true the Presi- dent’s order amending rule 2 of section 8 provid that “no removal shall be made except for cause,” but where there is a will there is a way to get rid of undesir- able incumbents. It is maintained by the advocates of the clvil service reform that by this order President McKinley has taken a long step backward toward Lhe spoils system. It claimed that the competition system-on which the civil ser- vice act and the civil service rules r has been seriously undermined. John R. Proctor, president of the Civil Service Commission, when asked this a ternoon as to the effects of the amend- ments, said: 1 have had an opportunity only to give them a cursory mination. Radical changes have been made which I believe must work harm to the classified service. The commission was not con- sulted about these changes and 1 prefer not to be interviewed until I have studied them, is Under the order the following named employes or positions which have bcen lassified under the civil service act are excepted from the requirements of exam- ination or registration, unless otherwis sipted t exceeding two private secretaries or c fidential cle to the President.

Rule 14 is amended so as to require only non-competitive examinations to test the fitness of a person whom the head of an executive department or the secre- tary of the Smithsonian Institution shall nominate for appointment in the clas fied service. This provision, it is declar- ed, is meant to cover appointments to pn- sitions requiring technical or scientific training, and the Civil Service Commi slon is required to furnish a certificate of qualification upon satisfying itself of the general fitness and upon the receipt of a certificate from the appointing offi- cer covering the facts. The amendment provides against the transfer of persons employed under this rule to places in the competitive service. The provision covering the removal of persons in the classified service is altered materially in the language, and as chan, ed reads as follows: : No removal shall be made from the com- petitive classified service except for just cause and for reasons given in writing, and the per- son sought to be removed shall have notice and be furnished a copy of such reasons and be allowed a reasonable time for personally answering the same in writing. Copy of such reasons, notice and anewer, and of the order of removal shall be made a part of the records of the proper department or office, and the reasons for any change in compensation within the competitive classifled service shall also be made a part of the record of the vroper de- partment or office. Rule 7 of the act is amended so as to give persons honorably discharged from service in the army or navy of the United States in the Spanish-American War, as well as the veterans in the Civil War, preference in the making of appoint- ments. The term of eligibility, hereafter one year from the date of entry of the name of eligible candidates on the civil service commission’s register, {s extended for a further discretion of the commission. The following new section added to rule § makes permanent in the discretion of the heads of departments all existing temporary appointments: All persons serving under temporary ap- pointments at the date of the approval of this gection may be permanently appointed In the discretion of the proper appointing officers, and the special rule approved Japuary 20, 1599, rela- tive to temporary appointments in’ the Navy Department is hereby rescinded. Rule 9 s so amended as to exempt per- sons who served in the war with Spain from the one year limit in the matter.of reinstatement after discharge from the service. This provision also applies alike to the widows of such soldiers, but the former Hruvision including nurses s eliminated. Reinstatements —generally may be made hereafter without regard to length of time where dismissal from the service has been due to a_reduction of forces specifically re%uh-ed by law. Still another provision made in this connection is as follows: Any person dismissed from the service upon charges of delinquency or misconduct may be reinstated subject to the other conditions of these rules without regard to the one year time limit of this rule upon the certificate of the proper appointing officer that he has ul- ready investigated the case and that the were not true. An entirely new rule, No. 13, is added, classifying all officers and employes in the classified service as follows, unless otherwise provided by law: Class A, all persons recelving an annual sal- ary of less than $720 or compensation at a less rate: B, from $7120 to less than $540; C, $540 to $900; D, $900 to $1000; E, $1000 to $1200;'F, $120 to $1400; two, $1400 to $1660; three, $1600 Lo $1700; four, $1800 to $2000; five, $2000 to $2500; six, ail at §2500 or more. This classification does not include persons appointed to an office with the advice and con- sent of the Senate or mere laborers or work- men; laborers or workmen who, prior to May 6, 189, and on June 10, 1506, were regularly as- 1 signed to the same grade of work as tlat per- superin- | eriod of one year in lhel charges upon which the dismissal was based | tions, established for quarantine purposes, dur- | nics of contagious diseases i the | ates or beyond the seas.

Hereafter no person appointed as a laborer or workman without examination under the civil service rules shall be asslgned to work of the same grade as that performed by classified employes. Rule 1, section 2, relating to transfers, is materially amended by striking out the words “or if in said position there is not required, in the judgment of the com-| mission, the performance of the same class of work, or the practice of the same mechanical trade performed or practiced in the position from which transfer is proposed,” and inserting in place of them the following: ‘“But the provisions in re- lation_to apportionment shall be. waived upon the certificate of the appointing of- ficer that the transfer is required in the interests of good administration.”” | The members of the civil service com- | mission, owing to he fact that they have not had time to examine and study its provisions in detail, are not yet prepared | to give out a statement of the effect of | the order.
