SHAW AND 1HE TREAsURYsHlp.

The invitation of President Roosevelt
TO Governor Shaw to accept the secre-
taryship OF the treasury to succeed
Gage, was a great surprise to Iowans,
lnasmuch 40 1t was supposed our state
was barred from consideration be-
cause 1t already had an acceptable
member OF the cabinet in the person
OF Secretary Wilson of the agricultural
department. 1t has been understood,
too. that the relations between the
president and Secretary Wilson are Of
the most cordial character. However.
the T.-R. finds discordant note in
the washington correspondence Of the
New York Tribune. which says:
.srhe attitude OF the secretary OF agi-
culture, James Wilson, is giving the adj
ministration and the senate leaders no
little cause for Irritation. In spite of
the presidents strong recommends
eons for concessions to Cuba, and the
insistence Of the senate leaders to the
same end, Mr.. Wilson. in season and
out OF season, fights the battle of the
beet sugar interests. Al he is the
only member Of the cabinet who is not
IN hearty sympathy with the president
In this matter 1t is assumed that he
will hasten his exit to private life I'M
less he, brings himself to see the wis
dom Of pursuing a different course to-
ward the beet sugar people"
AS 1t Il, not considered good policy
10 select two members OF the cabinet
I from one state, this action Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt probably means that Mr..
Wilson is to step aside. If SO. the
cause Of agriculture is to lose one of
Its most useful. able and active SER
wants.
It is more than likely that Governor
Shaw will accept the. position ten
dered him. It is a great honor that
has been conferred upon him and his
friends are extending congratulations
OF the most hearty character. The
governor made national reputation
as an advocate of sound finances In the
campaign of 's6. when the crucial test
was made against the gold standard.
and political leaders and sound money
men Of the east have not forgotten IT..
he has made q number Of speeches in
the east on financial topics since that
time that have added to his reputation.
This doubtless has had much to do with
his selection for the secretaryship.
Gov. Shaw has not yet had an oppor-
&unity to demonstrate that he is great
financier In administrative action as in
promulgating sound financial theories
on the stump. and II he accepts he will
have his record yet to make.
It also eeems strange that q man
should be selected for secretary Of the
United States treasury, who has had
no experience IN the management OF
large financial Affairs but whatever
may be said Of shaw's abilities by the
snanH enemies he has among Iowa re-

TO HOLD NIGHT SESSIONS.
The Subsidy Advocates to Make n
Final Effort.

Commencing Wednesday next the Sem
ate viii hold night sessions for the purpose
of debate on the Ship Subsidy bill. which
/ is still the unfinished business. and, with
| the hope of forcing the measure to vote.
Renewed efforts were made yesterday to
/ solidify the Republican strength in sup
port of the bill, or at least to secure an
agreement from those Republican Sena-
tors, who oppose it to remain passive and
not aid II amocrats in their opposition.
The Sci Jrs who favor the passage of
the bill at this session still express the
belief that it will be brought to a vote
notwithstanding the predictions of its OPP
ponents on both sides of the chamber
that il will be abandoned in a day or two.
1t is thought that one or two night ses-
sions will serve to indicate what actual
kept before The Senate until a vote is
reached, or whether it viii have to be
finally abandoned in order to make way
for the appropriation bills and other nee
essary measures.
Senator Teller and other opponents of
the bill have announced that they will de-
mand the presence OF a quorum at all
night sessions, and the Republican Sen
ators are. therefore, endeavoring to get
formal agreement to be present in full
force at every night session, so that it
will not be possible for the opposition to
gain time by forcing ar adjournment.
1t was the intention of the Senate lead
ers TO begin the night sessions last night,
but so many Senators had dinner engage
ments that IL was thought best to wait

against the filibusters
Not since the Senate passed the bill for
the repeal of the silver purchasing clause
OF the Sherman act has there been such
uncertainty as to the fate OF measure
pending in Congress as exists in regard
to the Subsidy bill. There are Senators
on both sides of the chamber who state
with much positiveness that under no cir
eumstances can the bill be brought to a
vote, and yet several Republican leaders Of
the Senate are equally positive in assert
ing that the opponents of the bill will not
resort to flibustering and that after a
reasonable time for debate a vote will be
taken and the bill passed.
a leader of the Senate Republicans
called attention yesterday TO The fact that
no bill had ever been defeated which a
majority Of the Senate desired to pass
He said that in the case of the Force bill
a combination of Democrats and Silver
Republicans. making a majority of the
Senate, was formed against it and defeat
ed it. II such combinations were made
against the Subsidy bill. he said ii would
be reasonable to suppose that II could not
be brought to vote. But with the ma
jority of the Senate fayoring it there was
no reason why it should not be passed.
This Senator who has served as Chair
man OF the Committee on Rules. said he
would be in favor of cloture rule, were il
not for his firm belief that fiibustering
could Ieyer succeed in defeating the meas

powerful opposition in the Senate. demon

END OF THE ARMY cANTEEN.
Order the First Issued Under New
decentralization Bill.

The War Department yesterday issued
its first general order under the new Army
Reorganization bill, in which it directs the
discontnuance OF the sale of beer, wine
and other intoxicating beverages on all
military reservations and army transports.
The order thus promulgated carries out the
provisions of the anti-canteen section OF
the bill. II says:
The sale OF. OF dealing in, beer, wine
or Intoxicating liquors. by any persons in
any post exchange, or canteen or army
transport or upon any premises used for
military purposes by the United States, is
hereby prohibited. The Secretary OF War
is hereby directed to carry the provisions
OF this section into full force and effect"
The order then proceeds as follows:
Commanding officers will Immediately
carry the provisions OF this law into full
force and effect and will be held strictly
responsible that no exceptions or evasions
are permitted within their respective ju-
risdictions"

who resigned April 20, 1900. He was
elected August 6. 1900. and did not enter
upon his duties as Representative until
December g. The House Judiciary Com
mittee was called upon to decide whether
Mr.. Richardson should draw his salary
from the date of General Wheelers reslg-
nation, from the time of his own election,
or from the opening of Congress. Though
not willing to admit that a Representa-
tive's term begins when that of his prede-
cessor leaves off. the Judiciary Commit
tee decided that it did begin Immediately
upon his election and that. as he assumed
the duties. he should also receive the
salary. This case is supposed to settle
the much-debated question for all time.
and henceforth Representatives elect ad-
interim will probably be paid from the
date of their election.

At the classical court theatre In

1t is not likely that any American the
