5 The secretary of the commission nn-
,, nounced this morning that a meeting
' would be hold tomorrow afternoon, und
stated that the board would probably not
. do mora than determine the time and
cope of tho remaining: police exnnilna-
tions. These ttaaralnntums will cover
the following- classes: Captains of do
tectlves. captains of patrolman, detec-
Uvea, jailer, matron, harbor master.
' deputy harbor master, special policemen
and patrol drivers. The last class wus
recently created and the qualifications
for this, like that of the Jailor class, be
ing: chiefly physical, a medical certificate
and former service on the force will be
the t essentials.
y One question to be settled;, will .be
concerning the physical examinations.
Several of ' the men . temporarily ap
pointed and acting- as drivers. Jailer, de
tectives and captains have passed from
' one to Ave physical examinations and
many of them are objecting to again go-
: ing- through this test. As the board has
a uniform system of rating such ex-
amlnatiOna and requires returns on regu
lar blanks. It may be. necessary for all
candidates to be again examined.
The examinations for the Police De
. partment can not be held sooner than
June 8 for two weeks' notice must be
given after the time of the examination
is decided on by the commission, ana
the probable date will .be from three
tdays to a week later. No announcement
will be made of the exact nature of the
written examinations, nor will these be
determined until-the day before the ex
. amlnation at which they are to be given.
: The list of Candidates forkhe several
remaining classes in the Police Depart
ment is given herewith. , A) survey of
this list show that several members of
the force have not slgnjled their inten-
tion of trying- to secure a place under
the Civil Service Commisslon,"even the,
list of .' candidates f or , the captaincy
showing- at least one present officer
'missing'. These persons may have their
names placed on the list later,. but up
to the present time the secretary or the

Happily he had a time clause In the con
tract, and when that expired Mr. Shap
iro had it in his power to rn things
the way that he desired. - He, therefore,
took matters in his own hands, and
from that day to this only" union labor
has been permitted to perform any serv
ice whatever upon the building. Today
there are union carpenters, union paint
ers', and uniorf plumbers putting on the
finishing touches, and when the place
iBjrthrown open to the public the eye
will! feast upon a bdwer of beauty typt
fylng the skill and genius of union labor,
This building was 'begun, early in , the
spring, and if the contractor had not
stood out ' against the unions, would
have been completed and occupied by
this time. Mr. Shapiro expostulated
first, without avail, then pleaded .that
unioa laoor on employed, out was pow
erlesH to command until the time clause
In the contract became operative, where
upon he made use of his authority and
the battle for union principles, so far as
he was concerned, was. won. It was
struggle, but worth the effort it cost,
and it is now surmised' that unionism
will reciprocate, and that union men
will see to it that their champion and
friend is remembered for- his loyalty to
union principles. Not ': in - sympathetic
contributions, indeed, for 'Mr. Shapiro
Is not In need of that, but when op
porfcunity offers the men who have been
the victors in this struggle foft union
supremacy will doubtless see to It that
tint opportunity Is Improved.
It has cost Mr. Shapiro considerable
more to carry on the work the way he
has ddne. than If he had permitted the
contrnctor to proceed until the structure
should have been completed. And this
might readily have been done had Tie tot
been o much of a stickler for union
ism, but he seems not to regret tha extra
expense entailed, so long as ne won out
against the non-union contractor. He is
well satisfied. Indeed, . over the turn
the affair 1ms taken, -but his experience
this time is one he will not forget. The
next contract of this character he lets
will have In It a cast-iron clause that
only union men shall be ernplojled. There
will be po dodg&g that.-
When Mr.retHmplro's place Is opened
for- business, he will . : welcome his
friends' and show them how beautiful
union labor has made the interior of the
bulldlne. Thorjr Is not much Question
tiut that he will be congratulated on his
decision . to deny employment . to un
skilled workmen. - - .-,

MR. SCHUMANN . DID THE GRAND.

Corner Stone for the Lewis

Hon. Otto 'Schumann, who has the
contract for building the Lewis and
Clark Monument, was the President's
right-hand man at that Important event
in the tity Park yesterday afternoon
Mr. Schumann had all things in read!
ness, and when his excellency arrived at
the spot where ha was to spread the first
mortar the contractor was all attention
and not a slip or a miss marred or
marked the occasion. The rain was pour
Ing down at the time and the President
looked as if he had been taking a shower
bath.
"Pretty wet day, Mr. President.'" Mr.
Schumann remarked.
"I reckon," was the response. "This
is rain, ain't it? Or Is this what you
webfooters call "Oregon mist?' " Then
in a half whisper, "I've heard of this be
fore." .
Mr. Schumann had divestd himself of
his coat and covered Mr. Roosevelt's
chair with u, so that it should not get
wet. - " j. .;.
"Put that 6at on your back again,"
said the president, "and 1 11 help you.
Suiting- action; to his words Mr. Roose
velt assjetea axr. Bcmirnunn to put on
his coat."' "Didn't- you know tha you
might catch your death of cold?" he ad
ded, and thereupon he took tha silver
trowel Mr, Feldenheimer had provided
and the corner stone of the Lewis and
Clark Monument was placed In posi
tion.' ' u4V. ' , .
From M r". Schumann a marble works,
adjoining the t aylor-street church, have
been taken many of the conspicuous
monuments that adorn tho several ceme
teries adjacent to : Portland. He has
Originated ana constructed ' monuments
to the dead that would do credit to any
workmen in the world. Designing is one
of hts strong holds, he having graduated
from one of the most celebrated schools
of designing In Oermany a- school that
hap no superior on earth. - ,
It Is . well that , so experlencea and
competent a workman has the "contract
for tha erection of this monument that
will forever commemorate the explora-v,'
tions of the venturesome ones who found
for us this . great commonwealth. It
will likewise serve as a monument to Mr.
Schumann himself ope that will remind
the generations to come that 1n this
day-and age we had among , us men
capable of forming Into artistic-shape

forever live, to tell to civilisation the
