C., June 19. The criticiams evoked by the portion of the recent civil service aw pro- viding for non-competitive examin- ations for certain positions of high actentifie order have caused a letter to be made public that shows how carefully the president considered every point of the order before its promulgation. ‘The letter is from Prof. 6.
