appointed secretary of the United States
legation at Panama. who was recently
arrested in New York with Marion Mac
Wicker a young Scotch girl. and later
discharged by court, has formally de-
clined his appointment in the diplomatic

barrassment.
Nolan, with his father. who came here
from Chicago. conferred with Acting
Secretary Wilson yesterday, and it was
said there was probability that Pres-
dent Taft might be asked to decide the
question. Later. however, the problem
was solved by Nolan declining the ap-
pointment, and the following statement
was issued:
''Mr. Nolan called at the Department
of State today and explained that. al
though his conduct had been grossly
misrepresented and distorted, as shown
by the upshot of the proceedings i'm New

agreeable notoriety which had been given
the matter, he felt, for motives of deli
cacy, that he would prefer not to ask
