New YORK, June 29.-Secretary
Noble has returned to Washington.
His visit here was q short one. He
arrived Thursday. A friend of the
said Friday evening:
Secretary Mobiles resignation as
head of the department of the inte-
rior is In the hands of President
Harrison. The president, however,
will probably refuse to accept the
resignation until next fall, when he
will appoint Secretary Noble as one
of the new judges CT the United
States circuit court. There have
been rumors some time that Secre-
tary Noble had resigned or intended |
to resign, but they have always been
denied at Washington. The fact is,
nevertheless, that President Harri-
son has received his resignation.
The secretary will remain in the
cabinet until the president has de-
cided upon his successor. There is
scarcely any doubt of his appoint
ment as u United States circuit court
judge.
