HITCHCOCK TELLS OF
RECOMMENDATIONS
J. C. Byrne, M. L. Corey and Thomas
7. Flynn ire Names Row Be I
fore the President
ALL WAITING ON MR. BETAN
"Ye. I originally recommended
Patterson, for this place," said Sena
tor O. M. Hitchcock after reading the
account of the appointment of Sam
. Patterson of Arapahoe to the position
of auditor of the Treasury depart-
, ment. "I recommended him, and I
do not know that Mr. Bryan ever
definitely recommended a man for
the place, but the matter hung fire
vso long that Mr. Patterson eventually
notified me of his withdrawal from
the race, as he had taken a position
in Dr. P. L. Hall's bank In Lincoln.
. "Then later, when no one was appointed
, to fill th. place. I wu notified by Mr.
Patterson and his friends that Mr.
Bryan's endorsement could- be secured
for Fatterson If I would again recom-
: mend htm. I 4ld so, with th. present re
sult" Senator Httohoock said so far as he
knows, this appointment wilt have no ef
fect on the pending- appointments for
federal positions In Nebraska. "My
.recommendations are still pending," he
said, "and I have always said that a
soon as 'my men were considered and re
jected by the president and proper
- authorities, I would be ready to offer
other recommendations."
Reviews Herommeadat loan.
'. Senator Hitchcock, talking to a repre
sentative of The Bee. reviewed the exact
succession in which he appointed certain
.men for the Nebraska places, and the
present status of those recommendations,
as follows:
"I first recommended Christ duenther
for collector of Internal revenue. That
hung over for a year. Then Mr. Ouen
ther asked me to withdraw his name,
after Mr. Iiryan had said he would not
eonicnt- to his appointment, and after
President Wilson had said he did not like
to make the appointment without Mr.
Bryan's endorsement. "
' "Then 1 recommended J. C. Bymo of
Columbus fur the position. At the same
11 mo I told the secretary of the treasury
that If Byrne was not satisfactory, and if
Mr. Bryan wss not satisfied with him, I
stood ready to make another recommeda
tron. e fTho attorney general then called on
inc for recommendations for r the posi
tions of marshal and district attorney
Tftat H still pending.
J'Then 1 recommend Swain of Greeley
ior t-.in.rsl:al. Home months 'after that
Hin. in view of the delayin appoint
ment, asWtd me to withdraw his name.
I then recommended T. J. Flyun of
Omaha for marshal. That is where the
patter stands, now," , ..,,,'
