WILL EX0NERATE LOOMS.
Resagination of Minister Bo1oen 10
Be Accepted.
[FRoM THE TRIBUNE BuREAu.l

Washington, June 1.-The complete exonera-
tion of Francis B. Loon1is Assistant Secretary of
State. and the acceptance of the resignation Of
Herbert W. Bowen, Minister to Venezuela. are
now regarded as the assured outcome OF the in
vestigation which Secretary Taft has been con-
Quoting into the conduct of these officials. Mr..
Loomis has established to the satisfaction Of
Secretary Taft the propriety of the alleged s10,-
600 check transaction. 1t now appears that the
check given to Mr.. Loonis was for $500 pesos,
and that in return Mr.. Loomis gave to Mr.. Bean,
of the asphalt company, a check for $4,000. An
other transaction between Mr.. Loonis and the
asphalt company. involving $1,000, has been
brought to the attention of Secretary Taft and
satisfactorily explained, and no one of the
been substantiated. Mr.. Bowen is now under
stood to say that he was seriously misled with
regard to the exchange of checks.
Minister Bowen mas virtually confessed his re-
sponsibility for the publication of the charges
against his superior. and while no charge Of
malice may lie against the Minister it is re-
garded as certain that his lack of discretion will
be considered ample grounds for the acceptance
Of his resignation The investigation will not be
finished however, until the statement of Minis
ter Russell, now his way to Washington, has
been taken and entered with the other evidence,
but no one not even Mr.. Bowen. expects that
Mr.. Russels testimony will upset the con-
clusions already reached. When Secretary Taft
has closed the case he will make public COM
prehensive statement setting forth the reasons
for his recommendations. by which the President
will doubtless be guided.
