IMPOSTORS SOLICITING FUNDS FOR RECEPTION Grand Army Committee Warns Pub- lic Against Making Contribu- tions for Such Purpose. The “McKinley Grand Army Commit- tee” calls attention again to the follow- ing resolution, adopted by the general committee of San Francisco posts of the Grand Army of the Republic: Resolved, That the publi agat making contributions of momay or otheraie: assisting organizations of so-called ‘‘veterans, - soldiers” or ‘‘survivors™ of the late war for this occasion, as the Grand Army is fully pre- pared and cheerfully will provide for all neces- sary expenses for a fitting reception and en- tertalnment of their distingulshed comrade. The efforts of these impostors have not ceased in any respect since the first warning, but on the contrary they are as bold and unscrupulous as ever. All persons, committees, socleties and the public generally are warned against these people. —_————— EX-GOVERNOR BAXTER HERE TO WITNESS WEDDIAG Hugh Tevis Will Lead Pretty Bride | to the Altar Wednesday Night. Ex-Governor Géorge W. Baxter of Wy- oming, father of Miss Cornelia Baxter, whose engagement to Hugh Tevis was announced recently, arrived in the city yesterday. Mr. Baxter is accompanied by his son and daughters—Webster McPhee Baxter and Misses Margaret, Katherine and Eleanor Baxter—who have been with him in Monterey. Thefiarfiy is here to witness R ok ‘evis, whic e place a next Wednesday avanlx‘z)z. | | { i | | | STILL EVADING CIVIL SERVICE Board of Works Detected in Flagrant Violation of Charter. i Retains Two Street Inspectors Not on Eligible List and Recommends Another Examination to EKeep Favorite. e That the varlous boards and commis- sions appointed by Mayor Phelan have discovered numerous ways by which to evade the civil service provisions of the charter, which they are all pledged to observe, was again brought to light yes- terday. The Board of Public Works, in its anxiety to reward political favorites | who had failed in the civil service exam- ination for street and sewer inspectors, has simply increased the number of such officials in its employ from twelve to four- | teen. The men who profit by_the action of the board are George W. Dutton and Lawrence McMahon, who are not on the civil service cligible list for the positions, but nevertheless have been retained in their old positions. Much correspondence on the subject has passed between the Board of Works and the Civil Service Commissioners. The | latier have insisted that the civil service provisions of the charter be followed out in the appointments, but have been in a measure placated by the notification that the twelve eligible street inspectors have all been put to work after having been certified by the commission. As there were_only twelve inspectors employed by the Board of Public Works previous 10 the announcement of the civil service eligi- ble list this would necessarily exclude Dutton and McMahon from appointment. This, however, did not bother the Loard of Public Works in the least. It selected the twelve names certified by the com- mission and continued Dutton and Mc- Mahon in their positions as inspectors, notwithstanding that they had both failed to pass the civil service examination. New Phase of the Controversy. A new phase of the controversy be- tween the two boards also_developed when the Board of Public Works fiied an official request that a new examina- tion be ordered for inspector of street sweepings, which position Dutton holds. The Civil Service Commission, in answer to the communication, stated that Dutton, at the special instance of the Board of Works, had taken the examination for inspector of streets when it was held some months ago. Dutton was one of the twelve names submitted by the Board of Works as holding the positions of street and sewer inspectors some time before tha examination was held. Upon the report of the Board of Works the questions to be asked the applicants for the positions were formulated. It was not stated then that Dutton was being employed in a spe- cial capacity or that his duties were any different than those of the eleven others. ‘When Dutton failed to pass thé examina- tion he was retained in the position, and in order to secure a permanency of tenure for Dutton the Board of Works wants the Civil Service Commission to hold another examination for inspector of street sweep- ngs. Yesterday the Board of Public Works sent a communication to the Civil Service Commission stating that no change would be made in the position until the new specifications for street sweepings were adopted by the Board of Supervisors, which would be next month. It further said that Mr. Dutton’s intimate knowledge of the duties was such toat it would be better. for the city's interests to retain him until then. Considering that Dutton’s duties consist in seeing whether certain streets are swept a specified number of times in accordance with the schedule, the Civil Service Commission fails to see where his expert duties come in. May Order New Examination. In the meantime the Board of Works expects that the commission will order a new examination in order to give Dutton an opportunity to get on the eligible list. The commission has so far taken no ac- fion, but in view of the unfavorable critl- cism which such a course would entail it is disinclined to accede to the request of the Board of Public Works. The proper course for the Civil Service Commissicn to pursue would be to order {another examination for street inspectors and not for the particular position of in- spector of street sweepings. It is obvious that Dutton would have a better knowl- edge~of the specific duties of the latter position and would without doubt pass the examination, though he failed for street inspector. Whether the Civil Serv- lce Commission will lend itself to such a barefaced attempt to evade the civil serv- ice ciause in the charter remains to be seen, but from the present attitude of the members thereof the little scheme con- cocted by the Board of Public Works to retain men who held positions and failed to pass the examinations therefor will be nipped in the bud. FIRST UKIAH EXCURSION. In response to the constant inquiry as to when there will be a Uklah excursion the California Northwestern Railway has decided to have one on April 28, which is somewhat early. This date has been se- lected because at that time (practically the 1st of May) this picturesque section it at its best. The warm breath of spring has taken away the damp and chills of winter and nature wears her freshest and greenest garb. Boat will leave Tiburon ferry 8:30 a. Fare will be only $2, and each ticket sold insures a seat, as the company will not sell any more tickets than it has seats provided.

B HOPE TO MAKE BOVCOTT FELT Building Trades Council Tells What It Demands of Managers. Harris and Emanuel the Only Men ‘Who Can Take Action That Will Satisfy the Labor Leaders. e = The Buflding Trades Council will make a special effort to-day to make its boy- cott of the baseball games felt. Wagons bearing signs proclaiming the boycott will be on the streets, and members of the building trades unions will be near the gates to warn away any of their fellow members who may seem disposed to en- ter. The-refusal of the Labor Council to indorse the boycott has ‘'spurred the other organization to greater vigilance. The executive committee of the Bullding Trades Council has issued the following statement: To the Fditor of ‘The Call—Dear Sir: The Dbaseball magnates are Industriously. circulating reports to the effect that the boycott on the baseball games has been declared off. All such reports, no matter from whom they may em- | arate, are not true.
