WASHINGTON, May 1S.-The Attorney
Generals opinion on the reconstruction act
will, it is expected, be made public this
week. All the points have been de-
cided and approved by the President and
Cabinet. The various branches of the act
are clearly explained. The preparation of
the document has involved the examina-
ton of the laws of the southern States, in
order to understand what classes are af-
fected and to furnish a guide by which
the law may be carried out with the least
possible embarrassment.
