A LUCKY FAKE" FOR GRIFFITHs
Erroneous Publication Brings Indiana Man
to Presidents Attention-Result, Place.
IFRou THE TRIBUNE BUREAU. ]

Washington. Jan. 5.-An erroneous publication
may give an Indiana a good place in the con-
suIar service A few days ago of the news
distributing agencies in Washington sent out a
story that President Roosevelt had decided TO ap-
point John L. Grifhths, of indianapolis, to the
consul generalcy at Berlin. Mr.. Grif1ths had done
splendid work IN the campaign. and the news was
greeted with general appreciation by the people Of
Indiana After the story travelled out to Indiana
it naturally came back to Washington, and, when
the President learned Of it, he pronounced it with
out foundation. He never had considered Mr..
Griffths for the Berlin place. and could not un-
derstand how such a report had been circulated.
1t said that he had the highest regard for the
Indiana man. however. and If he learned that he
after a place in the consular service he would
be pleased consider his name. To-day the Prest-
dent told Congressman Jesse Overstreet. OF
Mr. Grffiths's friends. that II Grifiths willing
he could have "a first class place in the consular
service. with promise Of promotion" before the
close Of his term
II called to see the President about Mr.. Grif-
President and he told me that he sorry indeed
that the report Of his selection for the place
Berlin had been widely circulated. I say
for Mr.. Cfriffths that he has never personally.
through his friends. made application for any
place In the Presidents gift. and that story sent
out from Washington came as complete surprise
to him. 1t pleased his friends. though I don't
has baen brought the front. that he ought to
have some good berth Az the conclusion Of
