nouncement that Charles j. Bornaparte.

he would retire July /, to go to New

The President also authorized the state
ment that no other change in the per-
sonnel OF the cabinet was likely to take
place in the near future.
To all except President Roosevclts
closest advisers, the announcement OF the
selection Of Mr.. Bonaparte as the head
OF the navy came as a distinct surprise
For many; years Mr.. Bonaparte has been
an Intimate friend OF the President
Eminent as lawyer and as publicist
and consistent advocate OF civil service
reform. Mr.. Bonaparte has not been sup
posed to have more than an academic in
terest in the navy. In the upbuilding OF
the navy, however. he is known to be
In perfect accord with the President. and
doubtless will carry into effect the views
OF Mr.. Roosevelt in the strengthening OF
the naval establishment.
Secretary Morton to-day gave out the
following statement:
Paul Morton announces that he WILL
retire from the cabinet July l. 1905. II e
will 90 to New York to live and will
become associated with Thomas F. Ryan
