MR.. MoODY's SUCCESSOR.
Strong Movement in Favor of Assist
ant Secretary Darling.

The reported disinclratCn of MIR. Paul
Morton to accept the tender of the naval
portfolio, about to be vacated by the trans
fer of Secretary Moody to the Department
of Justice is believed to greatly improve
the chances of the promotion of Assistant
Secretary Darling to the head of the naval
establishment Judge Darling is not an APP
picant for the office. but would undoubted
ly accept the appontment-at least for the
remainder of the present administration.
Without the least solicitation or even
kno Wedge on his part, a strong movement
in favor of Judge Darlings appointment
has been inaugurated by the labor organ
izations represented in the various navy
yards and stations. 1t Is said the move
ment had its inception in the Washington
navy yard. where Assistant Secretary Oar
ling has made himself exceedingly popular
by his fair and liberal decisions on all
matters affecting the laboring interests.
Questions of wages and hours at navy
yards al d stations are constantly presented
to the Navy Department. and 1t has been
the province of Judge Darling to pass upon
them, and that he has performed that deli
cate service to the satisfaction of the gov
eminent, as we'll as to the labor interests
is in itself high tribute to his ability and
Judgment. Furthermore. it is said that many
ship builders and contractors having bust
ness with the Navy Department have vol
unfairly indorsed the movement In favor
of Mr.. Darling'S promotion. There Is no
politics in the matter and nothing could be
gained in a political way by the further
Judge Darling is accredited, and that fact
is said to be n serious handicap to his Sc
lection Ii is expected that the matter VIII
be settled in day or two.

R. l.. Dunn correspondent in Korea for an
American weekly magazine. who has reach

after being informed that Col. Emerson was
dead:
Col Emerson, military man. was
we'll aware of the positions occupied by Jap
arose soldiers. Some time ago he made
the announcement that he intended to go
through the Russian lines and work from
that vantage point.
when it came to the ears of the Japa-
nee, military authorities that Emerson in
tended to take this step, an officer ap-
preached another representative of Elmer
sons paper and informed him that if he
took such a step the government could
scarcely be further responsible for his
safety.
Il contemplated a move similar to that
outlined by Emerson said Mr.. Dunn, put
the Japanese made it clear to me that 1t
would not be wise for me to proceed. Elmer
son held papers which would have carried
him through the Russian lines in safety. In
