WASHINGTON. June S-The Navy De-
partment is in a quandary about the IN
diana. 1t is desired to dock and clean her
and in fact the regulations required that
this should have been done months ago.
Then there was no dock available owing
to the failure of the New York dock. but
now, with the Port Royal dock
reported ready for the ship the
department is not able to do
the work for lack of funds. Il will cost
about $1,000 to send the necessary force of
workmen down from the Norfolk naVYyaId
TO Port Royal to clean and paint the ship
in dock. but even this expenditure is too
large for the Construction Bureau TO meet
before the beginning of the next fiscal year:
so ii is probable that the Indiana ust lie
at New York until that time, unfit for serv-
ice in an emergency.

VAN sYoKEL's JUDICIAL SHOES.
The Justice Wants TO Wear Them
Himself Another Term.
Sr>cdr1 IN fhe .zcaseu Cifr Nearr

TRENTON, Jan. %, 1S07.-Among the
nominations which Governor Griggs has
yet to send to the Senate is thai of a
successor of Supreme Cour Justice Ben
net Van SyckeI whose term will expire
on February Is. There is no avowed can
didate in opposition to Justice Van
Syckel. and the impression prevails that
he will be r~eappointed. Most of the
"eligibles'' for the place nave expressed
to the Governor opposition to any ex-
change. The one thing that has been
looked upon as a bar to Justice Van
Syckel's reappointment is the fact that
he is a Democrat, although he voted for
Mckinley, and that the selection of a
Republican as his successor would change
the political complexion of the Supreme
Court from five Democrats and four Re-
pnblicans to i've Republicans and four
Democrats. The political complexion of
the Supreme Court is a matter Of senti-
ment. however, without any practical adj
vanIaees from a partisan standpoint, and
this fact is recognized by leading Repub-
1icans who are urging Justice Van Syck-
els reappointment. Among these Repub-
leans are Judge J. Frank Fort of the
Essex County Court, ex-Mayor Gilbert
Collins of Jersey City, and ex-Judge Will
liam M. Lanning of this city. The re-
concentrations in favor of Justice Van
Sycke, come from practically the entire
Judiciary of the State and from a large
part of the bar.
