of Lu Indianapolis, September 8. To-day's session of the Miners' Federation was by far the most important of the meeting. With a view ot relieving the strained relation between the Federation and the Knights of Labor miners, a preamble reciting tho eiiorts to bring about harmonious action between the two bodies and the failures that have resulted, was introduced and read. The preamble introduced expressod an earnest desire lor harmonious action by all miners, and iu furtherance of (his end the following resolution was introduced: liesolretl, That we extend an invitation to the officers of tho National District Assembly 135, K. of to unite with us in issuing a call for a national convention of miners and mine laborers, regardless of existing organizations, and urge upon them the necessity of protecting our interests as a craft rather than seeking to perpetuate an organization, or organizations, of miners, upon the moiits of which our miners are now divided, the convention to be held not later than January, 18vSrt.

The convention discussed the resolution and its bearings with closed doors. The federation found warm supporters, but the desire tor a conciliatory adjustment of the matter hi hand prevailed, and rather than longer antagonize the Knights of Labor of D. A. 135, tho convention adopted the resolution. The executive committee was authorized to take steps to increase the membership iu the Pennsylvania anthracite region, Southern Illinois and Missouri.

The federation indorsed the action of the last convention referring to the weighing of coal before screening and urged that this rule be more scrupulously observed. The executive committee was instructed to arrange for the commencement of tho scale year in November instead of May. FAIHCHILD EXPLAINS. Ho Did Not Predict Trouble at Bt. Louis.

The Post says h8 had six or seven trunks and packages, eight parcels of all descriptions, but besides these he had 22 medium sized boxes, which looked strangely like those in which silks and other valuable merchandise are imported. His mandarin also had a large pile of effects. No one saw what was in these boxes, but judging by their size, number and general appearance, the circumstance is regarded as peculiar.

MwrnottJ IMPORTANT LETTER FROM COMMISSIONER OBERLY. Gives Some Pointers to the Cincinnati Postmaster Reasons for Which Clerks and Letter Carriers May and May Not be Removed.

Washington, September 8. Acting 'resident Oberly, for tho United States Jivil Service Commission, has written the ollowing important letter to Charles W. iowlaud, Chairman of the Civil Service Joard of Examiners for tho Cincinnati tostoftice, construing certain sections of lie civil service law and rules relating to he power of appointing officers to mako einoviUs: "XT. Civil Seuvice Commission, "Washington, I. September 7, lss7.

"Dear Sib: Tours of the 25th ult. lias een received. You say '1 have read our report on tho Philadelphia postottice rase and have noted your conclusions hereon. In a conversation with the post-naster to-day as to the power of removal if carriers, our attention is called to pase II, where you name the limitations npon he power ot removal. Are we to under tand that the postmaster may, without juestion, remove a carrier save "for the enumerated Dy you The post-iiafter informs me that he has an opinion if the assistant U.

S. district attorney lere to the etlect that he cannot remove and clerks as well, except for the named iu the civil service law as i noted by you on page 21 of tho Thila-lelphia report." "That every carrier and clerk the Cincinnati postoffiee might be legally removed for causa, is a proposition an which you need no information. It is, therefore, concluded that you wish to know whether, in tho opinion of the efficient carriers and cierks of good character may be illegally removed for partisan reasons because they do not igree in politics with the postmaster. "The commission has, therefore, stated, nd now repeats, that the power of removal is unrestricted, except that a removal may not be legally made for any ane of the following causes: (1) Because a person in the service has refused to contribute to a political fund or for a political purpose; (2) because a person has refused to render political service; (3) because a person has refused to permit the appointing officer, or any other person in the civil service, to coerce his political action. For any other causa, any person in the civil service may be removed legally and a person illegally removed for any of the causes named, cannot, under any provision of tho civil service act, detrand restoration.

"If, then, an appointing officer were to remove one of his subordinates for any one of the reasons mentioned among the inhibitions of removal, what penalty could bn inflicted upon him Civil service rule XXIV provides that every violation of any of the sections of the civtl service act relating to political assessments shall be good cause for the removal of the officer gnilty of the violation; and section 15 of that act provides, that 'any person who shall be guilty of violating any provision of the four foregoing sections shall, on conviction thereof, be punished by a fine not exceeding 3,000, or by imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years, or by such fine and imprisonment or both. "If the words 'four foregoing sections refer to the four sections next preceding the fifteenth section, an appointing officer might be punished by both fine and imprisonment for removing a subordinate because he refused to contribute money to a political fund or for a political purpose. But no penalty is prescribed by the act tvr violation of either the second or third inhibition upon removals, and an appointing oilicer, might, therefore, without fear of either fine or imprisonment, violate the law by dismissing subordinates because they have refused to render political service, or because they have refused to permit the appointing officer, or other person in the civil service to coerce their political action. It is to be presumed, however, that no appointing officer would willingly violate any provision of the law; but if, because he could not be punished criminally for the violation, an apiolnting officer were to violate tho removal-inhibiting provisions in question, it may be safe to conclude that he would not be permitted to remain in office. No officer should be continued in the enforcement of a law any of the provisions of which ho himself may have willfully "In this view it becomes important to determine whether a removal made for partisan reasons falls under the inhibitions that a person In the public service shall not be removed, (1) because he has refused to render political service, or (2) because he has refused to be coerced in his political action.

"One of the fundamental provisions of the civil service rules as prescribed by the civil service act is, 'That no person in the public service is, for that reason, under any obligation to render any political sorvictTaiul that he will not be removed or otWrwise prejudiced for refusing to do so." "Kule 6 provides that 'No question in any examination or proceeding by or under the commission or examiners, shall call for the expression or disclosure of anv political opinion or affiliation, and if such opinion or affiliation be known, no discrimination shall be by reason thereof by the examiners, the commission, or the appointing power. "From these provisions of the law and rules it is concluded First, that it is unlawful to ask an applicant for appointment under the civil service law to divulge his political opinions or affiliations; second, that if the appointing officer ascertain in any way what are the political opinions or affiliations of any applicant for appointment, it is unlawful in him to therefore either discriminate in the applicant's favor or against him and that it is unlawful in an appointing officer toappoint an eligible for ths reason that he is or is not a Lemoernt or to refuse to appoint an eligible for the reason that he is or is not a Kcpnblican, and f-ire versa; third, that it is unlawful to remove any person I rout the public service for refusing to render political service. "The law, fairly construed, is, that entrance to the classified civil service shall be upon the merit of the applicant without regard to his political opinions or affiliations; and that continuance in the service shall be upon the employe's merit, without regard to his political opinions or affiliation. "Thcreiuro the appointing officer who appoints or refuses to appoint an applicant because the applicant, does or does not entertain certaiu political opinions riolates the law and an appointing officer ho removes an employe because the employe retuscs to reudi-r political service in accordance with the wishes of the appointing officer because lie is not a political partisau of the appointing officer also riolates the law. "Entertaining these views the commis-lion replies to your question by saying that, in the opinion of tho wMiuiosiou the pest master at Cincinnati cannot lawtully r.niovo any carrier or clerk for the reason that the carrier or clerk belongs to tho political party to which the postmaster is opposed that he can lawfully remove no person from the classified postal service at Cincinnati except for souio other cause tbnn the employe's political opinions or affiliations."
