DICKINSON QUITS
AS WAR SECRETARY
Personal Affairs Cause Him to
Resign.
TAFT ACCEPTS WITH REGRET
President Appoints Henry L. Stimson
of New York as Member His
Cabinet in Place of Ten
nesseean.

Washington.-The president an
nounced the resignation from the
/ cabinet of Jacob N. Dickinson as sec
rotary Of war and the appointment of
Henry L. Stimson of New York as his
/ successor. Mr.. Dickinson was the
Democratic member Of the cabinet
and Mr.. Stimson was the candidate Of
the Republicans Of New York for gov
ernor at the last election.
IN the letters exchanged between
the president and Mr. Dickinson no
reason, other than that of pressing
private affairs, is given for the secre-
tary's retirement.
FIr. Dickinson will go to his Tennes-
see home Immediately upon the quail
fcation of his successor. He expects
to devote his attention to business and
will not return to the practice of law,
in which he was engaged when Presi-
dent Taft appointed him IN March,
1909. He is the second member Of
Mr.. Taft's cabinet to retire to private
life, Secretary Of the Interior Balm
ger having severed his connection
with the presidents official family only
a few months ago.
Coincident with the announcement
Of Mr.. Dickinson's retirement came
that of the appointment of c. S. Mil
liDgton of Herkimer, n. Y, to be as
sistant treasurer Of the United States
in New York. Mr.. Stimson was the
Roosevelt candidate for governor,
while Mr.. Wilmington was a former
member Of the house for the Twenty
seventh New York district, and is q
close friend Of Vice-President Sher-
man and other leaders Of the old
guard in the state, having succeeded
Mr.. Sherman in the house when the
latter became vice-president.
In the two appointments official
Washington found food for specula-
ton, and many politicians thought
they saw therein the first step of the
administration to straighten out the
tangled skein of New York politics.
No effort was made by the president
to conceal the satisfaction with which
he viewed the appointment of Mr..
Stimson. Not only has he the highest
personal regard for the incoming
member of his cabinet, but he is well
aware that the appointment will be
acceptable to a large faction of the
Republican party IN New York.

His One EsuIt.

In a southbound subway car two
men stood in front of a woman. The
men were hanging to straps and talk
Ing to each other One was a tall,
big man with an ordinary sort of
voice, the other a small man with a
voice that could be heard by all in the
car above the banging, rafting and
roaring of the train. Each word he
uttered was ear-splitting
Turning to the woman who sat next
her the woman in front of whom these
men stood, said: "MercifuI heaven,
what a voice."
You may well say what a voice, -
was the response What would you
do If you had to live in the house with
it and had to listen to it almost from
morning until night, and It even
echoed in your dreams?"
What would I do? I would not, I
could not stand it. l would get out"
Yes, I have tried to get out" said
the woman addressed, but I can't He
is my husband, and really his voice is
the only bad thing about him. New

unless Diaz sets a definite date to re-

ness of rebel sympathizers following
/ the fail Of Juarez, has alarmed the

Members of the diplomatic corps

/ upon invitation of Henry Lane VIII
/ son, the United States ambassador,
to plan concerted action for the pro-
lection of aliens in the event that the
| situation in the capital reaches a
| stage necessitating the taking of
measures to defend themselves.
Mr.. Wilson explained that his ac-
ton in calling together the foreign
diplomats to discuss the situation was
| merely precautionary.
| Later the American ambassador
called on Francisco de Ia Barra, the
! Mexican minister Of foreign affairs,
! to lay before him a contemplated
movement on the part Of the repre-
sentatives of foreign governments sta
toned here. The details of the plan
have not been made public.
An atmosphere of deep gloom per
vades the federal Offices in strong
contrast with the spirit of hopeful
ness maintained throughout the last
ten days.
Mr. De la Barra, who fathered the
peace negotiations for the govern
ment, and who apparently has been
most ganguine of all that they would
result favorably, appears detected,
and for the first time seemed to have
lost hope of immediate peace. Even
in the face of the latest developments
he believed, however, that there was
a bare possibility of a renewal of the
negotiations so unceremoniously bro

Ell Paso, Textile possession Of
Juarez has brought such governmental
responsibilities to the insurrectos that

lister of finance; Venus Venustiano
Carranz, minister of war; FREDERICK
Gonzales CARO-, minister of the in

tice, and Juan Sanchez Azcona, secre-
tary to the president.
Doctor Gomez was agent of the
revolutionary party in Washington up
to the time peace terms were being
discussed, when he came to Ell Paso
to participate in the conference.
Gustavo Madero Is a brother of the
provisional president. The others are
well known in the insurrecto move
