1899. Roosevelt had heard Shaw talk
to, the farmers from the rear platform
to the farmers Of Iowa and Kansas,
and had ridden with few hundred
miles, listening to his steady string
of droll stories and comment and had
taken a measure Of this lean, grey
eyed Iowa Yankee.
Born in Vermont, in Morristown,
Lamoille-co, Nov. 2, 1S48, Shaw was
among those who went west to make
their fortunes. He cast about for
ways to increase his somewhat mea-

loaning money on Vermont farms at
5 and per cent, although these prop
critics had greatly deteriorated and
were far less valuable than the rich
productive areas of his adopted Iowa.
But out in Iowa, money on farms
was bringing and 10 per cent. Why
not, he asked himself get his hands
on some of this eastern money, loan
it on his neighbours farm at the high
interest, and pocket the difference

AS governor of his state Shaw
demonstrated himself consistent

T'SCABINET AFTER MARCIA
THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY, LESLIE M SHAW

dorsement Of the people and had be-
come president in his own right, he
took up not the stand-pattism of his
secretary Of the treasury, but the
tariff revision doctrines of the de-
feated Cummins. Shaw then came out
as an advocate of tariff revision by
the indirect process known as draw
backs" He announced that many of
the points where the present tariff
lieved by a slight stretching of the
principle of drawbacks, as provided
for in the Dingley act. And from that
day on he worked sedulously for the
practical repeal by this means of tar
iff which were regarded as needles.
Shaw is fertile in expedients. He
devised the plan for depositing gov
eminent receipts from customs in
national banks when everybody sup
posed that congressional legislation,
which it scanned impossible to get,
would be necessary, and nearly took
the financiers' breath away by per-
hitting banks to issue currency
against all their government bonds.
and to substitute in their place good
state and municipal securities.
Just how long Shaw will remain
in the cabinet is admittedly uncertain.
He will hardely fill out the four
year term. The present outlook is
that he will remain for about a year,
and then will resign to devote himself
to being a candidate in 1906.

men it is clear that the fight will be
fierce.
The trial of the case Is proceeding
slowly. Every point sought to be
gained by Mrs. Kelly is stubbornly
contested by the women who are res
ponsible for Mrs. Kellys expulsion.
All of the witnesses are excluded
from the court room and are called
one at time so that no one shall
hear the testimony of another. There
is so much feeling and hatred stirred
UP over the case that Mrs. Kelly's
witnesses will not occupy the same
room with the witnesses for the
order, while waiting to be called.

WASHINGTON, March 2.-There
were several things which led to the
appointment of Leslie M. Shaw as
secretary Of the treasury to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of
Lyman ]. Gage. The appointment
came as a distinct surprise. Little or
nothing was known of Shaw, except
that he was a country banker in Iowa
who had come into prominence dur
ing the sound money" campaign Of
1896 and had served two years as
Governor Of his state. AS a financier,
he was not known to fame; and in
Wall-st. his appointment was greeted
with a supercilious smile.
That was reason no. one for his
appointment--he did not bear the
Wall-st trademark.
letter from Gov. Shaw, received
by the president. shortly after the
death of VIM. MsKinley may have had
something. to do with fixing the
presidents attention on the Iowa man.
Shaw had been ambitious to succeed
Mckinley as president but in his let
ter he assured Roosevelt that he
would not only support his adminis-
tration, but was for him in the cam
paign of 1904.
The invitation to enter the cabinet
came to Shaw as distinct surprise
He had not known Roosevelt at all
intimately, their acquaintance dating
from meeting on a special train dur

WASHINGTON, March Gov
eminent ownership of railroads,
which is spoken of SO frequently
as possible terrible elimination
of the present agitation for govern
ment regulation, is not a new thing
in European countries.
But 1t has been followed by some
results which sound so strange in
the United States.
For example, in the grand duchy
of Baden, the department of COM
merce and labor has learned, the
government has just provided for
the comfort of its railroad employ
es by the erection of 1886 apart
ment houses, where officials and
employees reside. In addition,
sleeping quarters have been fur
nished for train crews when their
runs compel them to be absent
from home over night. When they
have to carry their lunches they
are provided with small portable
cooking stoves on which to heat
their food. At Karlsruhe and Man
nheim the government has estab-
lished lunch rooms for the railway
employees at which they may OBJ
tain. at a cost of 8 cents, meals
consisting of soup, meat and vege-
tables. These meals are furnished
at cost. At the former station Is
library for the railway employees
consisting Of 1900 volumes.
The rolling stock of this govern
ment-owned railroad consists OF
755 locomotives, 1887 freight cars
and 1867 passenger cars. During
1903 they carried 3S.5S7,524 pas
sengers. Yet so carefully were the
roads managed that there were but
% derailings in the entire year: 33
persons killed, of whom % were
employees and II passengers, and
IS persons injured. This is about
equal TO the railway casualties in
the United States in half day.
President Roosevelt has received
a unique petition in favor of the
appointment of Leroy Hayden as
postmaster at Lowell, Lake county,
Indiana. The petition contains the
names of II Haydens who are res
idents of the county and relatives
of the petitioner A letter accom-
panying ii contains the informa-
ton that the total number OF resi-
dents of that name In the county
is 81. and the ezra 20 are also rel

business. People are not given TO
