same right TO do business IN the disputed

Appeals to the Department.
A number of appeals have been sent to

MOODY NOT LIKELY TO
RETIRE FROM CABINET
Washington Friends Doubt
Report That Secretary De-
sires a Supreme Bench
Nomination.
Massachusetts, is Already
Represented in Justice
Holmes--P Prejudice Against
Two From Same State.

Friends in Washington of Secretary
Moody do not credit the report that he
contemplates leaving the Cabinet to be-
come a member of the United States Su-
preme Court, at such time as the Presi-
dent may have an opportunity to appoint
him.
Attention is called to the fact that
Massachusetts already has one member
of the Supreme Court in the person of
Justice Holmes, and while there is no
law to prevent the President from Sc
lecting two or more iuris from the
same State for positions on the bench,
there is a practice and prejudice
against such a course. This would mill
tate against the selection of Secretary
Moody for that honor.
Admired by Mr.. Gray.
When considering the advisability of
retiring, at one time. the late Justice
Gray, who was a warm admirer of Mr.
Moody, expressed the sentiment that he
knew of no man whom he would so
much prefer to have succeed him as
Mr.. Moody.
when there was some discussion con-
corning his successor, Mr.. Moody's name
was mentioned among others. as it was
conceded that inasmuch as Justice
Gray's appointment was from Massa
chusetts that his successor should also
be accredited TO that State. 1t is not
believed that the appointment of Jus
tice Holmes, of Massachusetts, precludas
the elevation of Mr. Moody to the bench.
While Mr.. Moody would doubtless pre-
fer a position in the Supreme Court 10
a Cabinet portfolio, as a majority of
lawyers would, this should not be taken
to indicate that he is to realize such
an ambition.
Secretary Moody is said to be willing
TO relinquish his ONCE as Secretary Of
the Navy at any time, but the Presi-
dent is especially desirous to have him
remain

HARD LUCK HAS LITTLE
EFFECT ON PORTUGUESE
Aliens Wrecked Off New
bern, n. c., Fed Here.
MOST OF THEM ARE PAUPERS
Despite This Fact They Are Cheerful
and Look Forward to Happy
Homes in America.

Four hundred Portuguese, who filed
talking in their own strange language
and paying little attention to the sur
roundings, formed an unusual scene yes
terday afternoon. In the party were 39I
men, % women and small children
They were the immigrants who were
rescued week ago from the bark Vera
Cruz III, which was wrecked off New
bern, n. C.
The party was brought to Washing
ton by the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad,
and turned over to the Pennsylvania
Railroad, which made the arrangements
for the dinner at the National Hotel.
With Inspector Stump, of the Immigra-
tion Bureau, in command, the party
left Washington at 4:45 yesterday after
noon, and is well on the way to New
Bedford, Mass, the destination OF the
immigrants.
Not Grieved by Losses.
Despite the fact that the immigrants
were wrecked, and narrowly escaped loss
of life. lost most OF their personal eff
fects through the inability of the Rev
enue Cutter Service TO take them from
the bark before it was pounded to pieces
and lost all of .heir money through the
absconding of Captain Fernandez, the
members of the party were not in bad
humor. and made no trouble.
immigration Commissioner Billings, OF
the Boston port, has been instructed TO
meet Inspector Stump at New Bedford
and take charge of the immigrants.
Those who have been declared eligible
leased and the others returned to Cape
Verde.

 In an interview MT.

He states ths Abyssinia is a kingdom of 100000 popt lation, with a stable government and recently completed railroad with the oul CT world. As American manufactures ar not in the habit of dealing directly wit such far away lands. it Is Mr. Skinner duty to go there and ascertain th@ cof ditions under which business is tram acted in that region. with the view of fl creasing American commerce thSrH.
