Gentlemen—l ant Instructed by tljx
Civil Service Commjaslon to advise
your honorable body that the money,
heretofore appropriated for the nccea

ed You will remember that when
this appropriation was made, this Com

nor furniture, and In procuring evea
such furniture ayd equipment as It
, now has has made large Inroads upor
the appropriation heretofore made. It
has been the constant aim of the Com
' mission to keep down the expense tu
! the lowest possible limit, but with a 1
; this precaution, we find a further ap
i proprlatlon will be necessary to meat
current demands.
The Commission desires to ask, a’
I this time, for enough money to take
rare of outstanding hills and provld •,
for the neceasary expenses of the Com
mission up to January Ist. 1914, and,
therefore, requests your honorable
oody to tranafer from the Contingun*
Fund the sum of $65ft.00, the same to
he placed to the credit of this Com
mission to be used for the payment of
bills and necessary expenses Incurred
