LOOKS LIKE NAGEL-Were President
Taft compelled to make a final decision
regarding the successor to Justice Harlan
this evening he would unquestionably
name Charles Nsgel, Secretary OF Com
merce and Labor. The stock of Judge
William c. Hook, of the sth Federal Cir
cult, suffered a sharp decline to-day. when
the President began to examine a decision
concurred in by that jurist in a Jim
Crow" case which has Just been brought
10 the attention of the Chief Executive
! appears that Judge Hook concurred in
the decision OF the federal court sustain
ing the constitutionality Of the Oklahoma
law requiring the separation of whites
and negroes on the railroads OF that state
President Taft has little patience with
any sort of discrimination against the ne
groes and the discovery that Judge Hook
had concurred in such an opinion made
decidedly unpleasant impression on him
Instead of sending the judicial nomina-
tions. including that of Judge Hook, to
the senate, the President called to the
White House four of the five lawyer MEM
bers of his Cabinet, Secretary Nagel, who
is under serious consideration for the Su-
preme Court not being summoned Sen
ator Curtis and Representative Anthony,
learning Of the situation, hurried TO the
White House and urged the President to
give the most careful consideration TO GER
tain representations and explanations they
purpose 10 submit, and IL is probable that
the submission OF the judicial nominations
will he deferred for some little time long
or. Some Of the Presidents friends ear
nestlv hope that he win not deem II nee
csSarv to deprive himself of the political
services Of Secretary Nagel by appointing
him TO the Supreme Court but that lis
consideration which will have no weight
whatever with the President IL he decides
that Mr. Nagel is the best On he can find
for the place.
MFARG'S WORk.--Some OF the insur-
gents who are stTenuously opposed 10 the

Ormsby McHarg, who. 10 borrow their eX-

than that. lie deserves full credit for so con-
Quoting his monetary campaign as greatly

cured a contestng delegation from Florida.

HOOKS NAME OFF THE LIST
Withdrawn on Account of Jim
Grow" Decision-Louis Marshail
Mentioned for Cabinet.

Washington, Feb. THE vacancy IN
the United States Supreme Court caused
| by the death of Associate Justice John
! NJ. Harlan probably will he filled by the
appointment OF Charles Nagel, OF ST.
Louis, now Secretary OF Commerce and
Labor
| President Taft is expected to send the
nomination Of Secretary Nagel 10 the
Senate in few days. Judge william Z.
Hook, OF Kansas, who until last night
| was most prominently mentioned for the
place is said to have been eliminated
from further consideration at an hours
session of the Cabinet to-day. All the
lawyers in the Cabinet except Mr.. Nagel
were present, and afterward 1t was
learned that the President had made
clear his intention Of appointing his Sec
retary Of Commerce and Labor.
This report was so generally credited
tonight that rumor was busy with a
possible successor to Mr.. Nagel i'll the
Cabinet. Louis Marshall, OF New York,
and julius Rosenwald, of Chicago were
mentioned among those who would be
considered by President Taft.
Judge Hooks name was taken off tho
Presidents list to-day almost at the
eleventh hour. This action was said TO
be due 10 his concurrence. in a Jim
crow" law decision in an Oklahoma rail
road case. The President and Attorney
General Wickcrsham are understood to
believe that Judge Hook went too far in
this case, and Secretary Knox, Secretary
Stimson and Secretary Fisher. the other
lawyers at the Cabinet meeting, evil
IDENTIFY agreed with them.
Secretary NageI has been mentioned
among those the President was consider
ing for the Supreme Court place ever
since Justice Harsn's death last fall.
Attorney General Wickcrsham and Post
master General Hitchcock are known to
have urged his appointment strongly.
Mr.. Tafts only objection TO the appoint
mcnt has been the fact that Mr.. NageI Is
sixty-two years old, and, although a, law
Yer OF large practice, has had no judicial
experience.
