SHAW WILL STAY.
President in a Conference with Score.
tary of the Treasury Asks Him to
Remain In Cabinet.

Washington, d. c., Nov. 22.-Secre-
tary Shaw will remain as secretary of
the treasury in President Roosevelt's
cabinet to the conclusion of the APP
preaching session of congress-, and per
hapS for several months longer. 1t has
been understood in a tentative way that
Secretary Shaw expected to retire from
the cabinet about the LIST of February
next, or sooner, with 4 view to greater
freedom in promoting his candidacy
for the republican presidential nomina-
ton in 1908, although the secretary
himself has not his inten-
ton to be a candidate.
President R~oosevelt's attention was
attracted to several recent publications
concerning Mr.. Shaw's resignation. and
he had a conference with the secretary
about the matter.
After their interview it was an
nounced that at the urgent request of
the president Secretary Shaw had con-
scented to continue as secretary of the
treasury until the close of the APP
preaching session of congress-, and per-
haps some time afterward.
1t is probable that If congress should
adjourn prior to the LIST of next July
Secretary Shaw will remain in the
cabinet until the end of the present
fiscal year at least, and he may con-
clude to remain even longer. He will
remain until the close of the session of
congress IN any event, even II that
should be beyond the end of the fiscal
ear. Secretary Shaw's decision to
continue to the end of the session of
congress detracts materially from the
Importance of some stories published
recently that the president and his sec
rotary Of the treasury differed radical
ly on financial matters. The president
entertains high regard for Mr.. Shaw
both personally II officially.
At a two other changes in the cab
met have been under contemplation,
but it can be said they will not occur
soon. Attorney General Moody, having
formed a law partnership in Boston.
expressed a desire to retire from the
cabinet last July. The president per-
suaded him to emain another year,
and hopes to induce him to remain in
the cabinet until a year from the 4th of
Fifty-ninth congress. He has not re-
,eived a definite answer from MIR.
Moody on that point.
Secretary Hitchcock, of the interior
department, has also indicated his de-
sire to leave the cabinet before the ex-
%piration of the presidents term of Of
ice. But he has informed the presi-
dent that he will remain with him
through the present fiscal year and
perhaps longer.
No intimation is given of the identity
Of the successors to Mr.. SHAW, Mr..
Moody or Mr.. Hitchcock. Indeed, it is
not known that the president has yet
considered the question involved in
these appointments.

story as told to the commissioners
Yesterday was that she had been
cruelty treated by her aunt and that'
being of age. she did not wish TO I'M
dergo the ignolniny of spankings. she
therefore resolved to betake he1self
into the world and make her own way,
with rather poor success. Now, with
the promise Of her aunt that she VIII
be treated with consideration, she has
been allowed to go free.
Her troubles almost became douDleu'
however, before she was brought be-
fore the commissioners on the allega-
ton of Mrs Joe Hackett that the
countess had robbed her of watch
Mrs. Hackett was brought into 'he
court house Tuesday afternoon with
charge of insanity against her. ana
for want of better treatment she was
placed in the same cell in the county
TAIL with Miss Pinegar. During the
night Mrs. Hackett alleges she lost
her watch. When she was brought
to the court house yesterday she &C
cused some one Of stealing heT
watch. The COUNTESS" was immedl-
ately asked concerning the matter.
Asked II she had watch she quickly
answered Yes" and produced q gold
watch and chain. When asked where
she got 1t, she answered:
why, that old woman gave 1t to
me- This was stoutly denied by Mrs.
Hackett, but the watch was given
back rather than to have further
trouble stirred up for the countess.
