Wedding Out Once SeekerS
WASHINGTON. March Ia-Repeated
warnings that state delegations must
get together are having effect 50
also can be seen the results Of the in
sistence Of the president that these
delegations shall do their own weed
ing out Delegations are meeting and
acting uniteGiy. They are initiating
the frankncSs OF the president, and are
telling candidates who have no chauee
that they cannot help them Not in 20
wears has there been such rapid sub
sidence Of the orfice-seeking craze
Enough place hunters remain TO make
things interesting, but the crowds
have accepted the truth and are going
by every train. Mr.. TrelOar j. the
only candidate who has anything like
general support from Missouri Cor Of
zee He has been iudorsed for fourth
assistant pUstuastSr-genera but the
iniors.ng has been done on paper.
The secretary OF the treasury de-
clared himself yesterday upon the sub
ject OF appointments He said % a
congressman. who called in behalf OF a
candidate. that he intended 20 90 slow
in making changes. He said this in
such a decided manner as to leave the
impression II would be useless 10 try
70 hasten action. The treasury and
the interior contain about all that IS
left outside OF civil service protection.
