Mr. Weils said yester- day that he had been correctly quoted in this paper and that he proposes to stand by his expressed purpose to select his own clerks. He reiterated his intention that at the first sign made by the commission or Mayor Phelan to Interfere with the administration of his office he would take the matter to court and restrain them from any high-handed action. When Wells was iInformed yesterday that it was rumored that the Mayor had threatened to remove him as he had done Recorder Godchaux the Auditor smiled and sald that “threatening” and “remov- ing" were two different propositions. “I am fully prepared to defend my po- sition in this matter,” sald Mr. Wells, “and I mean to test the reputed power of the Civil Service Commission to dictate ! my appointments, and I will further test | the alleged right of the Mayor to act summarily with any city official who is desirous that the subject of civil service, on the legality of which some of our 5ruteat lgfll minds have expressed grave oubts, fully passed upon by the courts.” 8 the grandestremedy for WEAKNESS, for it fills the syste cles and circulates the blood.
