YOUNG MEN.
Roosevelt Intends to Please Himself in
 Second Term.
Washington Special to N. Y. World.

Washington Special to N. Y. World The one thing certain in connection with President Roosevelts second term is that he will have a Cabinet exactly to his liking. It will be made up en- tirely of his friends, and with one or two exceptions they will be young men. Neither State boundaries nor political expediency will be considered. It will be strictly a harmonious organization.
 One of Roosevelt's chief objects dur Ing his second term will be to transfer his mantle to Elihu Root, and he will have no one in his Cabinet who will not M give hin him hearty support S In carrying stated in The World six months ago, with the exclusive announcement that he would not be a candidate nor ac- edge that MT. Fairbanks also aspires to the nomination in 1908 has only served to strengthen the President s loyalty to Mir Root.
 any changes in the Cabinet before March {. It has been understood that Chairman Cortelyou will succeed MT. Wynne as Postmaster General by Jan uary 1, but he has told the President that he does not wish to rc-enter the Cabinet until later than that, probably not until March 4. He has planned a long European trip, MT. cortelyou, though he has maintained silence, was deeply cut by the charges in connection with the trust contributionsl He has been told that a long rest is impera- tive.
 After having been Postmaster-G Gen. eral, Mir. Wynne Is averse to again oe- coming an assistant. and he probably will be given an important diplomatic post.
 Secretaries Wilson and Hitchcock, each of whom is nearly seventy years old, probably will not be asked to re- main In the Cabinet after next March. Both have seen long service and are Onita willing fn rAfiFn Shorafary ha also may retire, as he Is suspected of having an eye on the Republican nomi- nation in 1908.
 Morton and Attorney-Geneyal Moody will all be invited to enter MT Roose- velt's second Cabinet, and the accept ance of the two last named only are in doubt. MT. Moody had intended to retire next March. but the President Is urging him to remain until next fall at least, and it is believed that he will consent. MT. Morton promised to stay In the Cabinet only until March, bun he has said that if he is formally invited to become member of the new Cabi- net he will consider it.
 Ohio will have two men in the next | Cabinet sooner or later.
 James R. Garfield is already slated | for place in the Cabinet. He Is one | of the Presidents closest friends. He was seriously considered as successor to MT. Cortelyou as Secretary of the | Department of Commerce and Labor but the President decided that he had not been prominently before the public long enough to escape criticism if he was placed in the Cabinet. MT Roose- l welt does not now care so much about criticism on that ground as he did be- | fore the election.
 Senator Lodge, another close friend of the President. has Cabinet ambitions, but they are all directed to Secretary of State. MT. Hay, however, likes his | post, and beyond that is a promise he
 made to conservative Republicans in order to win their support for Roose- Welt that he would remain in the Cabi-
 net If Roosevelt was elected. It is pos
 sible that Lodge may be asked to fill one Of the vacancies that will be cre-
 ated next March.
