Washington, ID c.. March 23.-Sen-
ator Dolliver and Cummins and Repre-
sentative Hull went to the White
House and discussed with President
Taft certain appointments in which
they are interested. They took up in
particular the case of Major s. H. M.
Byers, who wants to be minister to
Switzerland. and or w. A. Graham of
Des Moines, who wants to be appoint
ed to position in the office of Judge
advocate general of the army.
President Taft was in good spirit )
and joked with the Iowans quite free
ly over the evidences that the harm
ony crop in Iowa seemed to be larger
than 1t used to be. AS a result of
their visit it can he said that Major
Byers will not be sent to Switzerland,
though there is some prospect that he
will get another post. Secretary Knox
is allowed large discretion as to dipl-o-
matte appointments and he is insist
ing on young men as far as possible.
Mr., Graham's application was not
settled. Much will depend upon Sec
rotary of War Dickinson.
