Show The Cirii Service Teat" Suit on Friday. New Yobk, September 22. A Washington special says the resignation of Chairman Dorman B. Eaton, of the Civil Service Commission Com-mission was sent in before Mayor Hinckley, of New York, brought action in the United States Circuit Court to test the constitutionality con-stitutionality of the Civil Service law, and there is good reason to believe at the refusal of thePresident he will withdraw it until the action has been tried. The President has represented to him that his resignation at the present juncture would be interpreted as a retreat and a sign of weakness, and might influence the result of the trial. The President has promised to the the Civil Service Ser-vice Reform Association that the constitutionality constitu-tionality of the lawshall be surely defended, and the object of Mr. Eaton's visit to Washington Wash-ington at this time is to prepare a defense in the action, which is to be brought before Judge Wallace in New York on Fridav. |
