TITASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. IS
w Franklin x. Lane, probably the
best liked man in the Wilson admins
tration in both Republican and Demo
cratic euvirons. is to leave the cabinet
because he can no longer continue in
public life at a personal sacrifice.
Mr.. Lane intended saying nothing
publicly about the matter until ne had
an opportunity TO consult the con-
venience Of president Wilson, for he
did not wish 20 make the transition
in the interior department difficult
for 2 successor nor did he wish TO
hurry the president into naming a
new secretary OF the interior.
But an UNAUTHORIZED publication Of
q story TO the effect that Mr. Lane
ha4 already resigned led him 20 issue
a statement saying that while he had
not even written his designation, he
did contemplate going out Of the
cabinet
an sorts OF stories have arisen as
10 the reason which prompted M

from an ALLEGED difference with presl-
dent Wilson on the league Of nations

stories are Incorrect The secretary
only last Saturday night made an
earnest speech at a private gathering
in Washington advocating the league
Of nations. furthermore his plans %
withdraw from the cabinet, 10 now
develops, were known to several
friends. including newspaper corre-
spondents. before the recent coal
crisis occurred
On the other hand, It is a fact that
Franklin Lane and Woodrow Wilson

the closest harmony when the indus
