PH|LANDER KNOX ATTORNEY-GENERAL The Pennsylvania Lawyer Ac-
 cepts the Portfolio MEETING OF THE CABINET Considerable Time Was Consumed in the Discussion of the Civil Serv-
 ice Question-Secretary of
 Treasury Is Satisfied.
 
MEETING OF THE CABINET

Washington, April 5.-The President made the first announcement that MT. P c. Knox had accepted the post of Attor- ney General to the cabinet today. Ills commission, which is dated today, was signed immediately after the President had informed his advisers of their new colleagues acceptance.
 Secretary Hay submitted to the cabinet the Russian communication referred to in a previous dispatch and the news was accepted as an indication that ten sion in the Far East would be relieved
 The major portion of the time of the meeting was consumed in a discussion of the civil service In the various depart ments. This matter came up apropos of the Presidents conference with members of the Civil Service Reform League yes- terday. Each of the cabinet officers gave his experience with the law.
 The Secretary of the Treasury said that the law gave satisfaction in his depart ment and that 1t was being strictly com piled with, although some difficulty was experienced on account of the fact that under the law officers selected for one position could not perform the duties of other positions. The trouble in the Agri- cultural Department is that there are no eligibles for technical work on the civil service commissions list. Secretary Root reported that it was the intention of the War Department to place semi-skilled la borers at arsenals and in the engineer department under a registration system similar to that now in vogue in the navy yards. This was the original intention when the President took these men, of whom there are several thousand, from within the civil service rules, where they had been placed by the blanket order of President Cleveland, but the inaugura- tion of the new system has been delayed from one cause or another until the pres- ent time In the other departments vari- ous suggestions were made looking to the better enforcement of the spirit and letter of the law, and each cabinet offi- cer will be expected to see that the law is not abused in his department. No new rcgula tions or orders by the commission are expected.

 Its all right" said the judge. T like fresh air. only remarked on 1t as 1t is so unusual to have anything fresh in this court--even air
 Your honor looks like you are to have a double-barrel session this morning" re- marked a lawyer You have two dock cts on your desk
 "So many cases are continued in this court" said the judge, some for one reason and some for another, and some without any reason whatever, that l have bought a new docket to hold them There's a tremendous continued dock ct this morning said the clerk, who was busy looking at some amateur photo graphs of storm scenes. ''I think there are thirty cases on that docket alone, he added in an absent-minded way.
 hDrop those storm scenes, Mr. Clerk said the judge We are going to nave some stormy scenes in court this morn ing If I'm anything of a judge"
 Your honor is very good judge said the clerk.
 'Is that an Easter bouquet you are throwing at the court?" inquired the judge At any rate I would rather have an Easter bouquet thrown at me than an egg" he continued Easter eggs are generally bad and apt to stain the clothes.''
 Judge" said a lawyer, i've got an innocent man here your honor can dis charge without a trial"
 "Prisoners in this court" said the judge .'do not have benefit of clergy, but they always have the benefit of a trial"
 Tt is not always a benefit to them,' said the lawyer
 "Its an i'll trial that does not benefit someone" said the judge, Sometimes it's the defendant but more often its the city,
 'I didn't know this was a mutual ben eft association" said the lawyer.
 Its not" said the judge. Neither is 1t an eleemospnary institution. This court is simply scale for weighing guilt. We also have a scale of prices. We try to make the punishment fit the crime"
 'T thought the trials were to find out first whether the defendants were inno- cent or guilty" said the lawyer.
 "So they are," said the judge. but wa try, try again. The second trial, as l said, is to fit the punishment. The read tpial for the prisoner begins after this is doue."
