an efficient and able corps Of assistants.
men trained In their fields and having the
most thorough knowledge of their work.
The talk of probable changes in the As
sistant Secretaries is based altogether on
the fact that a new Secretary likes to sur
round himself with one or more men of his
own choosing, but Governor Shaw may see
fit to ask the three Assistant Secretaries to
stay on with him. Some of them command
sufficient political influence to be retained
by the President.
Assistant Secretary Taylor is from Wis
consin and possesses the combined Repub-
lican support Of his State, headed by Sem
ator Spooner. Although a Secretary has
great deal to do with choosing his as
sistants. he must recognize political reasons
and sanction them.
Assistant Secretary Spaulding has the
earnest support OF Michigan. Senator's Nc
MILAN and Burrows had talk with the
President about him few days ago. His
health is now bad but If he RECEIVERS he
can command great deal of valuable in
fiuence to remain In office If he wants to
do so.
Assistant Secretary Allies does not COM
mand SO much political influence, but he
has a splendid record back of him and a
Governor Shaw Will respect and can find
useful. Mr.. Allies knows more Of the de-
tails OF the Treasury than any man con-
nected with It.. and to most men would
prove too valuable to part with. Governor
Shaw may take this view. No man who
could be chosen to succeed Mr.. Allies could
hope to attain his knowledge Of Treasury
details in years Of experience.

SHOWERS MAY FALL SATURDAY.
DR.. Hyatt Predicts Fair Weather
Will Last Only To-Day.

t'The weather in st. Louis should continue
unchanged" said Doctor Hyatt yesterday,
with an even temperature. and compare
lively fair for the next twenty-four hours.
But Saturday it will probably be unsettled.
Cloudiness should prevail, and showers may
fall.''
st. Louis Is under the influence Of an area
OF low barometric pressure, which ts CEN
trail about Chicago and moving east, but
another low area is coming down from the
FAR Northwest, following the Missouri River.
It is this that portends possible rain for
Saturday.
Yesterday the weather conditions over the
United States were stable. with no extremes
of heat or cold. There was no heavy rain
fall at any point, and snow was reported
only from Salt Lake, where &c measured
less than one inch In depth. Clouds obscured
the sky, however. in many localities from
Virginia to Louisiana and Wyoming.
In st. Louis the thermometer ranged be-
tween 10 and A degrees above zero, falling
very slowly last night with the indica-
tom. that 1t would probably be only few
degr4es warmer to-day, II there Is any
change whatever.
