aal .. s. Spillman late this after

Coolidge Hunts
for Successor
to Daugherty
List of Names Under Consid.
Grafton Includes Harlan
Stone and Judge William
KENYON of Iowa.

Washington. March 51.-President
Coolidge got down to cases today in
his task of selecting a successor TO
Harry NJ. Daugherty as attorney gen.
eral.
Having determined during the
weekend the type OF man he desires
for the cabinet place. the president
called into consultation two close ad.
visers in the legal profession. Senator
Pepper of Pennsylvania and Secretary
Of War Weeks. With them he went
over a list OF those he has under con-
sideration.
This list is understood to include
the names OF Harlan F. Stone, dean
of the Columbia university school OF
law: Federal Judge Frank S. Dietrich
of Idaho. Judge William s. Kenyon
OF the federal court OF appeals. and
former Governor Nathan L. Miller Of
New York.
Indications were given today that
others still In the president mind
were Arthur p. Rugs. chief justice
of Massachusetts, supreme judicial
court; Governor Alexander ]. Groes-
beck Of Michigan and Senator Borah
of Idaho.
The positive statement was made
at the White House that no tender
of the portfolio had been made but
that the appointment probably would
be made within a few days.
The general belief OF those eloee TO
the president is that he would like TO
appoint Chief Justice Rugg. but feels
that Massachusetts, already has moro
than its share OF federal offices.

clared by the grand jurors to have

questions then under inquiry before

The indictment recited at length the
oil policy determined upon by congress
and declared the senate oil committee
was authorized to inquire into all
rhases Of the leasing Of naval oil
reserves. which, ii was held, was be-
ing done when Sinclair refused to
answer questions.
The case had been in the grand
jury's hands only few days and with
the expiration today of the tenure Of
the present jury. a new panel II ex-
pected to be formed. probably some
day this week. to receive evidence to
be presented by the special oil coun-
sci regarding alleged criminal phases
attached to the oil leases.

under which the indictment was re.
turned, provides for both fine Of
