CHANGES IN PRESIDENTS OFF.
cl.aL FAMILY MADE PUBLIC.
PLACES FOR MEYER AND sTRAus
designations of Secretary Shaw and
Attorney General Moody to Cause
Much Shifting Around Of Present
Advisers.

Washington Oct. 24.-The following
statement regarding prospective
changes in President Roosevelts cao-
met was made public at the white
house:
"On the retirement of (. Secretary
Shaw and Attorney General Moody
from the cabinet, the following
changes will be made: Secretary of
the treasury, Hon. George B. Cortel-
you; postmaster general, Hon. George
Won L. Meyer; attorney general, Hon.
Charles L. Bonaparte; secretary of
the navy, Hon. Victor H. Metcalf;
secretary of commerce and labor, Hon.
Oscar S. Straus."
The general understanding for
some time has been that Attorney
General Moody will retire on Jan. /,
and that Secretary Shaw will follow
him March 4 next. On the first day
of the year, therefore, Mr.. Bonaparte,
who Is now secretary of the navy, will
succeed Mr.. Moody as attorney gen
eral and he will, in turn, be succeeded
by Mr.. Metcalf, the secretary of COM
merce and labor, the latter's place be.
ing filled by Mr.. Straus. Mr.. Cortel-
you, now postmaster general, will
take Secretary Shaw's place on March
4, at which time Mr.. Meyer is to be-
come postmaster general.
The announcement of the prospec-
tive ohor IN RI a.
following protracted cabinet meet
ing, at which it is understood the
whole matter was considered fully.
The changes contemplate the introduce
ton of two new men in the cabinet,
Mr.. Meyer, who is to be postmaster
general, and Mr.. Straus, who is to be
the secretary of commerce and labor.
The fact that Mr.. Meyer was to
have place in the cabinet has been
known for some time, but the name of
Mr.. Straus has been mentioned only
incidentally, if at all, in connection
with the circle of the presidents ad-
visers. The transfers of Messrs. Cor
telyou to the treasury, Bonaparte to
the attorney generalship, and Met
calf to the navy have generally been
accepted as among the probabilities
for some time.
Mr.. Meyer, who will become post
master general, is ambassador to Rus
STA, to which place he was appointed
on March 6, 1905, having been promot-
ed to that Office following his service
as the ambassador to Italy from 1909
to 1905. He is native of Massachu
sets and has been well known as a
business man.
The appointment of Mr.. Straus
caused considerable surprise, as it
will be the first case of citizen OF
the Hebrew faith having been made
member Of the presidents cabinet
He was born Dec. 8, 1850, and is well
known as merchant, diplomat and
author. He represented the United
States as minister to Turkey on two
different occasions and was appointed
by President Roosevelt to fill the va
cancy caused by the death of former
President Harrison as a member OF
the permanent court Of arbitration at

Captain MikkelsOn's Plans to Find
UnknO1cn .1rctic Archipelago.

Next to finding the North Pole itself the
greatest Arctic discovery yet to be made is that
of a vast unknown Polar continent, archi-
pelago which, from soundings, driftwood,
thickness of ice, currents, etc, is thought
to exist in the Beaufort Sea to the north of the
American continent. Here is an immense unex-
plored area which may contain land and people
of great interest of which nothing is now
known. knowledge of the Arctic regions"
says Sir Clement Markham. president Of the
Royal Geographical Society, will still be most
incomplete until this area has been explored.
1t is of the most important geographical
undertakings and chief Arctic exploration re-
manning uncompleted"
Danish explorer and Arctic traveller,
Captain Elmer Mikkelson, who served with
Andrup in Greenland and with the Baldwin
Ziegler expedition, will, with the approval Of
the United States government, head an eX-
pedition to penetrate by a daring sledge jour
ney this unknown Polar region. If he finds it,
he will claim it for the United States and raise
the Stars and Stripes it. Captain Mikkel-
son recently gave some interesting details OF
his attempt to reach this new Arctic world be-
fore the Royal Geographical Society
"My working plans for exploring the Beau
fort Sea- in order to ascertain if there is land
and possibly people, to the north of Alaska, are
as follows: My assistants will be Ernest Lef
nngwell, geologist and Ejmar Ditlevsen, natu-
ralist and artist, who have done considerable
Arctic work. They will leave Athabasca Land

more to the mouth, which empties into the

The party will stay there to hunt and cache
some game, which will enable us to stay a short
time at the depot in the following spring with
out wasting any of our sedge provisions In
course of my stay at Banks Land will make
a series of sledge trips in order to train my
dogs so to develop their utmost speed and
endurance.
EARLY in the following February the entire
party will start northward, reinforced by sew
eral Esquimaus and will push out on the ice. The
sledge party will start with a couple of Sibe-
rian ponies and thirty dogs, drawing three
sledges. We viii carry provisions for about 40
days In addition 70 the food carry for our
selves will have al least 80 pounds of meat
for the dogs. The pony can draw at least 500
pounds of food, and it eats in twenty days about
30 pounds of fodder. 1 have used ponies in
Franz Josef Land, and found them very good,
indeed, but of course the dogs are the most
trustworthy in Arctic transportation.

On goes the lid.
Gambling is at an end in Be.
midi.
Mayor a. A. Carter today
issued an order forbidding the
operation Of gambling devices of
any sort in this city, and Chief
IF Police Bailey this afternoon
made the rounds of the saloons
Ind carried the executives
orders into effect.
He gave gamblers one hours
notice in which to remove all
roulette wheels, tub games and
poker tables, and warned them
shat # the offending articles were
still running or in evidence about
5he saloons at the end of that
lime they would be seized and
:arried away. All the gamblers
needed the warning and it was
not necessary for the police to
Iuse harsher methods. In all
something like fourteen places
whore gam bling has been carried
on were visited and warned.
According to Mayor Carter,
gam bling has seen it's last day in
this city while he is mayor. He
declined to give a lengthy inter
view on the subject when ap.
preached by the Pioneer, but
igave the following statement:
.'You may quote me as saying
that | have decided to close up
gam bling in Bemidji and to close
it for good. Further than this |
have nothing to say"
Gam bling has fiourished in
this city ever since it's beginning,
and the mayors action will come
as a surprise to the majority of
the people who had no inkling
that any move of this kind was
contemplated. It has been the
custom to allow gambling, al
though it is forbidden by a city
ordinance, and to impose fine,
monthly, or oftener, varying
! f ON $40 to $50.
