DICKINSON IS OUT
To make HARMONY

WASHINGTON, May I..-The polls
teal aspects OF the appointment Of
Henry J.. Stimson. Rooseveits mar
and defeated candidate for governed
OF New York. to succeed Jacob II.
Dickinson. Democrat. as secretary OF
war, to-day held first place in Wash-
ington gossip.
That Dickinson must of necesyity
withdraw to make room for Re-
publican before 1912 has been thu
view held here for many weeks. His
presence in the cabinet. as q Demo.
Graf, was feared as a cause Of en-.
barrassment as the time approach<
ed for planning the campaign.
The selection of stimson is regard
ed by some as a move toward har-
monfzing the Roosevelt and "old
guard" factions In New York 5ena-
tor Root is known to have had n
large part in the selection, and Il Is
considered probable that Roosevelt
was also consulted
1t has been known for some time
that Dickinson had grown weary OF
his post. Those close to the secre-
tary believed he regarded his duties az
trust. but that he had viewed his
position without enthusiasm, since the
suppression of his famous report on
the unprepa redness of the nation.
reports that his resignation was
due 10 the Mexican situation were
generally dismissed as without basis
Of fact. The burden of the Mexican
situation rested very lightly upon the
secretary Of war
The appointment of S. c. Miliington,
of Herkimer. n. Y. to be assistant
treasurer at New York also announces
ed last night, is interpreted as part
OF the harmony movement upon tho

by me in my Richmond speech in
relation to the introduction in the leg

one OF Eirginia's great industries. AS
subsequently explained by me. this

menhaden fish in the waters OF the

by Mr.. John a. Curtis

prominent attorney OF the North

toned the name OF Mr. Chinn in his
statement. and this letter will throw
some light upon the subject under
discussion.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Well
ford. referred to by Mr.. CardweIl,
had no connection with the Curtis
bills. IL was introduced by Mr.. Well
ford at the request OF several OF his
constituents, but was never favored
by him. This was the bill for op-
posing when ar. Cardwe1I received
u fee Of $3.50.
II may be true, as Messrs Curtis
and Cardwell affirm. That the latter
did not request the introduction of the
bill to which I referred, but Messrs.

integrity. maintain that Mr.. Curtis
stated exactly the contrary to them.
1t Is true. however, that an effort
