Lansing's Place Is Not
s For A. Mitchell Palmer

Washington, d. c.. Aug. 26.-It was
learned on good authority to-day that
A. Mitchell Palmer, of Pennsylvania,
is no longer under consideration for
counselor of the State Department to
fill the vacancy made by the elevation
Of Robert Lansing as Secretary of
State.
This information was coupled to-
day with the statement, which was
pretty generally understood before
among Mr.. Palmer's friends, that he
did not wish the place and had never
been n candidate for it, at least in any
active sense.
There is nothing in this information.
that suggests that the recent pub
lication of an interview held by a
mysterious m. P" with President
Wilson had anything to do with the
elimination of Mr.. Palmer. though
published reports were probably tho
occasion for the inquiries that led 10

the garage door locked and nobody
about neighbor told him where to
get key; he got a key, hunted UP
a registrar. and together they opened
the registration booth
In one of the precincts of the Fourth
ward Democratic registrar didn't
turn up at all. Inquiry developed the
fact that he is at the Panama Pacific
exposition. So the committeeman had
to hustle around and get q substitute.
The fact that so many voters are
still away on vacations is one reason
why the registration to-day was com

had to swap stories most of the day

HERE'S 4 NEW QUESTION ON
REGISTRATION ASKED TO-DAY

OF the thousand ana one questions
that the clerks in the county COM
missioners office had to answer to-
day, the city's first registration day
perhaps the newest problem to be
presented was submitted by Squire
Acam Hoster of the Thirteenth ward
Several petitions which had been
circulated in that ward for places on
the primary ballot, the justice ex-
planned, bear the names OF qualified
electors Of one party who say that
they mean to declare themselves for
the same party again. If they did
not do so,could they sign a petition for
the party for which they had affiliated
on the last registration day?
In other words, as Squire J. H
Strock pointed out, any petitions now
on file which are signed by electors
who have declared for one party last
year are legal; but, If the same cleo
tors switch to-day can they legally
sign another petition for nomination
under the former banner?
