PROF. GOODIES SUCCESSOR.

President Jordan of Leland Stanford
University Mentioned Among Others.
President Jordan Of Leland Stanford Uni
Versity, Cal. is prominently mentioned to
succeed the late Professor Goode as as
sistant secretary of the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition and director of the National Museum
The appointment is not likely to be made
hefore the Janury meeting Of the board of
regents of the Smithsonian but the ques-
ton Is already attracting much attention
in scientific circles
The appointment is made by the board of
regents, usually on the recommendation of
the secretary of the Smithsonian Institu-
tien. Professor Langley. The latter has
recently returned after an absence of some
time. and has not yet taken up the question
of Professor Goodies successor. 1t is said
however. that the appointment is of such
Importance that the members of the board
will take personal interest in it. deferring
largely to Professor Langiey's judgment.
The executive committee, consisting of ex-
Senator Henderson, Gardiner Hubbard and
Postmaster General Wilson live in Wash
ington, and If need be a special meeting can
pc heid 10 make the appointment, but this
is not expected
President Jordan is one of the best known
naturalists in America. 1t appears to be
conceded that a naturalist will be chosen

mentioned for the place. Mr.. Jordan has
recently completed work on the fishes of
North America. He was appointed last
spring as president OF the commission of ex-
perts to go to Bering sea and investigate
the condition of seal life. Before going to
Leland Stanford Mr.. Jordan was president
of Indiana University.
DR.. c. Hart Merriam, ornithologist Of the
Agricultural Department as announced In
The Star, is also prominently mentioned III
connection with the appointment. He has
developed the biological survey in which the
government is now engaged, mapping the
general distribution of animals and plants
and fixing the economic stat&ls of birds and
mammals. In the course Of the work DR..
Merriam has written, the series Of mono
graphs on North American fauna, which,
when completed, will make the first exhaus-
tive treatment on that subject.
Mr.. F. w. True, curator of mammals at
the museum. and, since the death of Pro-
lessor Goode, in temporarui charge Of the
museum is also spoken of as possible APP
pointee. Mr.. w. J. MCGEE Of the bureau OF
ethnology is also mentioned. 1t Is not
known that President iJordan would accept
His present salary is $1O,Oog while that Of
director Of the museum is less than half as
much. 1t is said, however. that the direc-
tcrship would afford a scientist opportuni-
ties for conducting his researches which
would compensate for any money loss.

which almost amounts to probability,
that Tanner will be beaten. He is certain
to lose if the state is at all close, for Alt
geld has tremendous popularity with the
mass of voters in every section, especially
in Chicago, where he has devoted followers
who are also for Mckinley. The republi-
cans are trying to counteract this senti-
ment by circulating charges against Alt
geld. The latest is that he filled the Cnes-
ter prison with the latest style of ma
chinery and put seven hundred convicts at
work making goods. which resulted in de-
privng as many workingmen of the chance
to earn a living. The law requires that
convct-made goods be sold outside the
state, and most of them are supposed to he
sold in other countries, but the republicans
charge that the contractors violate the law
and sell them in Chicago to wholesalers.
The fight of the republicans will be made
chiefly with view to electing Tanner. for
they seem to regard the state as certain.
and they say that the best the democrats
hope to do is to elect Altgeld. The demo-
Gratis, on the contrary. say that Altgeld's
election is certain, but the republicans are
trying to secure the state for Mckinley.
