CRANE MAY SUCCEED MR.. SHAW
A Place in Presidents Cabinet to Be
Offered to Governor Of Massa-
chusettss

Boston.-Private information comes
from Washington that Governor w.
Murray Crane of Massachusetts is to
enter President Roosevelt's cabinet,
succeeding Secretary Shaw, who will be
given a post as ambassador at some
European court. Just when this change
will take place is not stated, but the
belief is that just as soon as foreign
post is open the place will be rendered
to Secretary Shaw and the way thus
made smooth for Governor Crane.
While the administration is undouDted-
ly pleased with the way the Iowan has
shaken up the dry bones in his depart
ment, notably in the customs service,
he has brought about some daring in
novations in financial methods that
have made conservative bankers of the
country shake in their shoes, and some
pressure he's been brought to bear by
these interests for more conservatism
in the treasury department. They feel
that it would be wiser to have at the
head of the treasury department man
whose name is synonym for conserva-
tism and safety in the American f1nan-
cial world, and Governor Crane is so
regarded by financial leaders.

A KANSAS PROFESSORS TRIAL.
Is He the Man to Whom a Massachu-

of Lead?

Fall River, Mass.-When Prof, Philip
H. Clark of Kansas d is brought into
court for trial this week there promises
to develop one Of the most sensational
cases ever tried in Bristol county. The
preliminary evidence against Professor
Clark was so slight that the grand jury

man to whom he had sold quantity of
sugar of lead, with which well at As

mitted that he came from Worcester
through South birmingham to Assonal

LODGING. IS 500 A DAY.
The Cost of Visiting the Durbar at
Delhi India.

London.-The interest in the Indian
durbar continues. 1t is estimated that
nearly $4,000 British and Americans
will visit Delhi for the occasion. The
enormous prices charged, however,
have caused many persons to abandon
the idea of attending. It will cost two
persons with two servants $4,000 in
travelling expenses alone. The cost of
the stay Of visitors at Delhi cannot be
fully estimated. The hotels there are
Slready charging eight times their
usual tariff and the available houses of
the town have all been hired at from
$40. 600 to $45, 900 apiece. The Indian
princes are sparing no expense in talk
ing steps to return the hospitality ex-
tended to them in England at the time
Of the coronation.
Owing to the scarcity of houses some
rude huts have been built among the
camps and although they will only con-
tain fireplaces and a few simple COM
forts extravagant prices are demanded
for them. They will be Of three classes.
The first will cost 800 daily for hoard
and lodging for each person and 500
will be charged daily for carriage hire.
Some of the travellers are taking their
own carriages and horses. The most
envied of the Americans going hence to
the durbar is Mrs. Adair, who starts at
the end of the month. She will be Lord
Kitchener's guest and will act as his
hostess in entertaining a large party in
vited by the British general. Mrs.
Adair is taking many of her own ser
wants, including her chef. After the
durbar Mrs Adair will visit Lord Cur
zon of Kedleston, the viceroy, and Lady
Curzon.
| Another American who will take a
prominent part in the durbar is Mrs.
Jack Leslie, whose husband has Just
been appointed upon the staff of the
Duke of Connaught, who will represent
King Edward at the Indian ceremonies.

probability that the executive council

number, and the socialists say they do
