ROBERT SHAW OLIVER.
His App ointment to Succeed
Sanger Decided on.
Appointment Agreed Upon at a Con-
fersnce Between President and Gee
retary Roet-Sad to Be Satisfactory
to Senators PIatt and Depew-Mili-
tsry Career of Distinction.

Oyster Bay, July 14.-President
Roosevelt has decided to appoint Gen
eral Robert Shaw Oliver of Albany,
N. Y, as assistant secretary of war
to succeed Colonel William Cary San
ger, resigned.
The appointment was agreed upon
finally at a conference between the
president and Secretary Root. 1t has
been in contemplation for some time,
as it has been known that Secretary
Sanger desired to retire from the
war department on account of the i'll
health of Mrs. Sanger. His resigna-
ton was placed in the hands of the
president to be accepted as soon as
convenient.
General Oliver has had military
career OF distinction. He served in
the civil war as volunteer officer and
subsequently, served as an officer of
the regular army establishment in
both infantry and cavalry branches.
For many years he has been identi-
fed with the New York National
Guard and now is a brigadier general.
General Oliver is engaged in the iron
business and is quite as prominent in
commercial circles as he is in mill
tary affairs.
1t has not been decided definitely
when General Oliver will assume his
new office, but as Colonel Sanger de-
sires to relinquish his duties as soon
as possible it is likely General Oliver
will undertake them as soon as he can
arrange his business affairs.
The appointment of General Oliver,
it can be said, is quite satisfactory to
Senators Platt and Depew, who were
consulted regarding it.
In connection with the consideration
of appointments it can be said that
the president has not thought serious
ly of naming Charles S. Francis of
Troy, N. Y, as ambassador to Italy
because, so far as the president is
aware, Ambassador Meyer has no in
tention of resigning.
The rumor, It is stated, is on a par
with that which indicated that Am
bassador Mccormick was to retire
from St. Petersburg to be succeeded
by Mayor Low of New York. Both
stories are without the slightest
foundation.
Secretary Root will leave Sycamore
Hill for Washington today.

Discussing Leo,s Successor.

The Tribuna of Rome, which
since the grave condition of the health
of the pope became generally known,
has been publishing sketches of the
cardinals who are considered likely to
become head of the church, devotes an
article to Cardinal Gibbons, which ends
as follows:
THE partisans of Americanism have
in the past often spoken of Cardinal
Gibbons as a possible successor to
Leo XIII. The Idea was for many
reasons too daring to become a real
ity; but it would not have appeared
altogether impossible without the
Spanish-American war which rendered
Cardinal Gibbons position excessively
delicate with the Spanish Catholics
and remainder of the world
'He would not be a pope of the two
American continents or even an Amer
icanist, but pope of the United States,
against whom would rise the Spanish
cardinals with all the prestige of their
indisputable loyalty to the Apostolic
See and who would have on their side
the greater part of the Latin cardi-
nails.
This does not mean that in case a
conclave is held Cardinal Gibbons will
be without influence. On the contrary
he will have power which will be ex-
ercised by him with wisdom in favor
of a candidate who will agree with the
state of modern civilization"

FROM OCEAN TO OCEAN.
George Gould Says He viii Have

Months

Wheeling, w. Va, July 1--we

look over the Wabash's interests here
He was accompanied by trainload
of railroad officials from the Wabash
and the Wheeling and Lake Erie. In
the party was President Jeffrey and
Vice-President Hardey, of the Missouri
Pacific, President Ramsey Of the
Wabash, and a score of lesser railroad
dignitaries. They came over from
Cleveland and went east in the even
ing.
Mr.. Gould talked freely in a general
way Of the plans of his company. He
said he was able to announce thae all
arrangements would go through, .an
Meeting lines be built and one Nast
system from east to west running -. a
year and a half.
lone good feature about the road
will be its lack of dangerous or even
heavy grades. None will be so hard
as to prevent the hauling of seventy
or seventy-five cars in single-head
train, and this is saying a great DEAL"
said Mr.. Gould.
Continuing, he said he was interest
ed personally in the proposed Wheel
ing, Waynesburg and Eastern railroad,
which will connect the great mills OF
the Wheeling district with the coke
fields of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Goulds assertion that he is back
of it means its success. In that case
the Ohio will be bridged here and con.
noctions made with the Wheeling and
Lake Erie, already dominated by the
Gould interests. Before his train left,
Mr.. Gould said smilingly:
"Times will continue good. 1t looks
that way to me, and | do not think the
view is too optimistic. The entire
country seems to be solidly prosper.
