(. B. ROOMS RESIGNS
Robert Bacon, of New York, Named
Assistant Secretary Of State.
TO ASSUME DUTIES IN OCTOBER

Mr.. Bacon Was a Banker and Former
Partner Of J. p. Morgan & Co. and
Assisted In Settling the Anthracite
Coal Strike.
Oyster Bay. N. V. Sept. 5.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt announced officially
the appointment of Robert Bacon Oh
New York. to be first assistant secre-
tary of state TO succeed Francis d.
Loomis.
The announcement was accompan-
led by statement that Mr.. Bacon
would not assume the duties OF MS
Office for some time. perhaps not until
about the middle of October. after Sec
rotary Root had become settled in the
Office OF secretary of state.
Mr.. LOOMS resignation has been
practically in the hands OF President
Roosevelt for several months. His de-
sire TO retire from the office OF as
sistant secretary was known to the
president at the conclusion of the
BOwen-LOomi inquiry, which resulted
in the forced retirement of Minister
Bowen from the diplomatic service.
The death of John Hay made 1t ne
cessary for the president to select not
only a secretary of state, but also a
first assistant secretary who would be
acceptable to the chief Of the depart
ment. Practically Immediately upon
the acceptance by Elihu Root Of the
Office OF secretary of state he and the
president determined upon the APP
pointment of Mr.. Bacon as assistant
secretary.
For years Robert Bacon has been
an important factor in the business
equation of New York. Until within
comparatively recent months he was
Junior partner in the banking house OF
j. p. Morgan & Co. At the time or the
settlement by President Roosevelt OF
the anthracite coal strike. Mr.. Bacon
represented Mr.. Morgan in two con
ferences in Washington which made
for an amicable adjustment of the
trouble. subsequently. when Mr.. Ba-
con retired from the firm OF j. +.
Morgan & Co, the president deter
mined to utilize his services If a suit
able place for him could be found
Mr. Bacon was here as a guest OF
the President and Mrs. Roosevelt at
luncheon.
It is expected that Mr.. LOOMS will
relinuuish his office in a short time.
and that his resignation will take
effect at the conclusion of a leave OF
absence which he proposes to take.
No statement is made concerning his
possible future in official life but, as
heretofore noted in these dispatches.
his appointment to an important diplo-
matte post is problematic.
