Cabinet Changes.
A Washington special to the Tribune
says: Matters have reached a point
now, where there can no longer be a
shadow of doubt that Akerman will at
once retire from the Attorney General
ship and be succeeded by ex-senator
Williams, OF Oregon. This change was
substantially decided upon several days
since, but has been withheld for GER
tain reasons which make longer
delay unnecessary. The retiring Attor-
ney General will be transferred TO other
fields il he prefers to remain in an Off
cial station. 1t seems probable he will
be offered a legal position for life in
one OF the United States Courts for one
ofthe Southern States.
