War DEPARTMENT SHAKE-UP
Justice Harlan's Story Too Much
for Taft.
Weakened Floors Feared TO BE the
Result of the Secretary's
Hearty Laughter.

Il is unoficially stated that the army
engineers viii begin to-day an inspection
of the foundation Of the west wing Of the
state. War and Navy Department build
ing where the Hon. William Howard
Taft has his office
Fears are entertained that the floor in
the Secretary's office may have become
impaired. The weakening Of the sup
ports is said 10 have been caused by
what happened there yesterday morning
when Mr.. Justice Harlan came in and
told Secretary Taft a funny story. The
jIrist has the corpuleut War Secretary
beaten several pounds on av0irdup0is.
and when they got together and swapped
stories clerks rushed out into the cor
ridors, fearing that there was an earth
quake.
Mr.. Secretary, ] just came into tell
you" was all those I'm the ante-room
heard Justice Harlan say as he entered
the SeCretary's Office. A moment later
there We're two shrieks Of laughter and
the rafters trembled, and the tenpins in
the Y. NJ. c. A. bowling alley across the
street fell over Then the door opened.
and those on the outside s7y the visitor
was about TO leave. when the Secretary.
still shaking with laughter. caught Jus
ticc Harlan by the arm and dragged him
back with And say, judge, that reminds
me" Again the door closed. and two
minutes afterward there was a repetition
Of the mirthful demonstration.
Again the echo reverberated through the
corridors. and an aged clerk. who hasn't
heard a sound for thirty years. aroused
himself and inquired what war ship was
firing a salute. Justice Harlan left the
Office holding his sides, while the Secre-
tarv Of War returned 10 his desk. and
fifteen minutes later when his next caller
was ushcred in. he had succeeded in calm
ing himself down to the point where he
was smiling.
Really, boys" said the Secretary to the
newspaper men. I'D like to tell YOU that
story Harlan told me- but l can't. 1
couldn't do justice to it. You'll have TO
appeal 10 the Supreme Court"
