Remarks About Examination of Ap plicants for City Positions Misconstrued, lie Says. The City Civil Service Commission held a meeting early yesterday morning in its private room at the City Hall, the chief feature of which was the examination of John Montag, a member of the fire com mittee of the Executive Board. He had publicly stated that anyone desiring to pass a civil service test could do so "by seeing the right person." This ruffled the dignity of the commissioners, who took this statement as a reflection upon themselves, but Mr. Montag assured them Chat he meant nothing of the kind; that he simply repeated what he had heard from various sources, and a profuse ex planation by him smoothed out the mat ter. Mr. Montag explained to the members of the Civil Service Commission that he had heard it said that the examinations held by that body are patterned after the Government tests, and than anyone who would see a certain man at the Custom House could secure proper answers to the questions and thereby secure 100 in a city examination. He said he had no Inten tion In the least of reflecting upon any member of the commission. His remarks were made during a meeting of the Are committee last Saturday afternoon, and created a good deal of comment, as they were taken to mean that "crooked" work was tolerated by the commission. Mayor Lane was present at the meeting yesterday morning, having returned from Seattle, where he went to see that the Exposition was properly started. He called official attention to the fact that the examinations held by the commission are farcical, and the Executive Board, in trying to make appointments, has found that It can In no sense depend upon the eligible lists of the commission for competent men. . This, the Mayor ex plained. Is brought out by the fact that it has been impossible to date to ascer tain the competency of men on the certi fied list for master mechanic in the Fire Department Chairman P. 'L. Willis, of the commis sion, said that It would be a good plan for the secretary of the commission to make an effort, at least, to verify statements by applicants for positions as to previous experience. This the secretary has never done, as he himself admits. It was found by the Mayor and fire committee that one man. who was certified as eligible for the position of master mechanic, lied about his experience, but he was credited as perfect in his examination, and was cer tified for appointment by the Civil Service Commission. were 22 children lets than 10 years old. tAgnt of those brought in were accused of burglary. 25 of petty larceny and six of immorality. Five were sent to the Reform School, four to the Frazer Detention Home, three to the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society and five to the House of the Good shepherd. SHRINERS BEGIN JOURNEY Northwest Delegates Leave for Lou isville Convention. Wearers of the red fez. known as mem bers of the Mystic Shrine among outsid ers, to the number of about 100, left Port land yesterday for the annual meeting of the Imperial Council to be held at Louis ville. There is a tragic significance at tending the meeting this year, for a few years ago the council met in San Fran cisco, and when the time came around for another meeting: on the Coast at Los Angeles it was just after the disaster that befell the Bay City, and it waa abandoned In favor of another choice. i Louisville captured the distinction this year, and there would seem to be a fra ternal contest among the different tem ples of the country as to which staVs shall be most largely represented. The Pacific Northwest sends a special train, originating in the Sound country, and at Portland the delegates from Al Kader and about 60 others joined the party, that is not only to visit the Kentucky metropolis but continue on eastward before return ing home.
