be made before July.
DR. Charles D. Walcott, retiring d.

else considerable influence at both the
Geological Survey and the Reclamation
Service, By reason Of his intimate con-
nection with them in the past
DR. Walcott IS one Of the greatest
executives, by common consent, in the
Government service. He is /. scientist,
writer, an executive, a mar,Gger Of
men, IL Is calculated that as head OF
the Smithsonian he will be the Hvest
curator the institution ever experienced.
He is close to the White House, and
the suCcesA he has achieved In the past
is the reason for the belief that in fu-
ture he is likely to retain influence in
all tie departments with which he has
been connected IN the past.
Many Candidates in Field.
When DR.. WalcOtt was called from
the dictatorship Of the Survey to be
secretary OF the Smithsonian, there ap-
