LONDON, Feb. 1.--Following the
arrest of several suffraget es who this
afternoon smashed one Of the glass
cases in the jewel room of the tower
of London, the government officially
has closed to the public all the royal
palaces where costly crown collec-
tions and relics are kept.
The published order, which barred
sight-seers from Kensington, Hamp-
ton Court, Holyrood and Kew Palace
for an indefinite period, did not des-
lgnate the cause for the edict, but 1t
was learned from semi-official
source that the tower incident pro-
voked the action.
All of the palaces ordered closed
contain collections of rare books,
paintings, silver and gold plate and
other relics that are Invaluable and
the property of the crown, but which
have always been on public view un-
der glass, heavily barred and zeal
ously watched by guards. 1t was re-
ported that the royal museum and
the public libraries might also be
closed.
These places have been the favor
ties of the people, especially on holi-
| days, and it is believed to be the aim
OF the government not alone to safe
/ guard crown property from attacks,
/ but to, direct the wrath Of the public
. against the militants.
The suffragettes have vowed to
bring their grievance home to the
great public by destroying property
! of all kinds and interfering with pub
| lie utilities, but SO far they are sue
/, ceeding only in arousing curiosity and
| some amusement. Their acts, though,
seriously curtail the privileges of the
people, it is believed by the govern

PRINCETON, N. j.. Feb. 1.--Presi.
dent-elect Wilson intimated tonight
that he might announce the makeup
Of his cabinet by the end Of next week.
This was the first suggestion coming
from the only authentic source to in
dicate that the long-heralded and
widely specula.ed upon Wilson cabinet
was anywhere near it's completion
Governor Wilson commented with
smiling Emphasis on the fact that
Colonel Bryan had been mentioned in
the prospective cabinet discussions
only for the state portfolio.
He was mentioned for secretary OF
the treasury" Wilson was told.
'Oh, yes" said the governor Il be-
lieve he was. but only editorially.'
When informed of the passage by
the senate of the Works amendment
providing for single six year presi-
dental term, the governor said.
ut must be passed by the house
and three-fourths OF the state legisla-
lures"
Have you any further comment to
make on it," was asked,
mo" he replied with quick smile.
ut would not be in good taste"
| The president t-elect said he was still
| receiving letters and telegrams from
many people advocating cabinet can
/ didates.
/ Most of them refer to the secre
taryship Of the interior" he said =
am sorry have such a little time
left to make my choice. The entries
! for secretary of the interior have now
narrowed down to five men.
There seems to be misconstruc-
/ tion of my statement that couldn't
recall the names of all mentioned for
cabinet positions What | meant was
/, that a number of men had been sug-
gested for secretary of state, but |
could not recall their names"
4 Some idea of what the governor 8
opponents think of him was given by
Colonel" Abe Gruper, republican
leader of New York, who came down
to Princeton on the same train.
4 Just think what great mystery is
providence declared Gruber The
same train carried an idealist in poll
! tics and machine politician safely
into Princeton"
/ The president-elect did not recall
Gruber at first, but finally remember
ed who he was. "Oh, yes, I've heard
of him." he said laughing.
"Gruber says there are three mil
lion republicans who will never vote
for Roosevelt the governor was told.
Three million solid long" he ex-
claimed rs he sure of that?"
