Representative Lo bec; had a rather extended Inter view with Attorney Genarl Gregory yesterday over hla suggestion of the mime of Judge J. J. Sullivan of Ne braska to fill the vacancy on the su preme court bench created by the death of the late Justice Lamar. The Interview, according to Mr. Lobeck, was as satisfactory as could be expected.

Talks f Federal Vacancies. Having disposed of the suggestion of Judge Sullivan for a place on the su preme bench, the congressman from the Second district took up with Mr. Gregory the vacancy on the federal bench of Nebraska. While he was not there to favor any particular candidate, he de sired to urge a speedy appointment of a successor to the late Judge Munger and that it should go to the North Platte country. Judge Munger came from north of the Platte and while tho divis ion between the north and the south Platte waa purely Imaginary it has ex isted for years and had been recog nized as an actuality almost ever since the state came Into the union. ante Mrs Leading. Attorney General Gregory gave Con gressman Lobeck no intimation who was likely to be recommended by the pres ident, but Sir. Lot-etk gathered Inferen tinlly that J urine Thomas of Sewiird and Mr. Woodrough of Omaha were the two men belnn mosc seriously considered for the position. At the suggestion of the attorney gen eral, Mr. Lobeck filed a letter of recom mendation for Judge Fulllvan today with President Wllaon and requested that Sec retary Tumulty arrange for an Interview with the president Just ss soon aa the letter's appointments would permit. Mr. Tumulty assured Mr. Lobeck that he would be given an opportunity to pre sent Mr. Sullivan's name personally for a place on the supremo court as soon as possible. Decision "ot Reached. '.My call on tho attorney general," said Mr. Lobeck, "developed thia fact that the mind of the chief law officer of the gov ernment is an open ono on the question of the Lamar succession and that the west will be considered seriously with other sections of the country in the selec tion of one eminently fitted to hold a place on that tribunal. y "In my Judgment Judge Sullivan woula make an Ideal man for the place and if any inquiries tiro made In his home state the results cannot help but be favorable. Incldenally, I told the attorney general that Judge Sullivan was under 60 years of age, which is my understanding. While I do not know whether Nebraska stands a show or not of landing this high posi tion. I do know that the west will have consideration for Its candidate or candi dates, and that so far as Judge Sullivan Is concerned he measures up to the stand ard required for thin high office."
