sure M'REYNOLDS CAN
HAVE LURTON'S PLACE
Washington Officials. However, Doubt
Whether He Will Accept
Justiceship.
HAS TRUST SUITS PLANNED

Washington officials generally have ac-
cepted the report that Attorney General
AcReynolds can have the late Justice
Lurton's seat on the Supreme Court
bench II he wants 1t. and they have given
much time in the last week to gossip on
Mr.. McReynolds' probable successor at
the Department of Justice.
Considerable doubt exists in some quar-
tiers that Mr.. McReynolds will accept the
justiceship. The New Haven civil suit
has just been launched, and the criminal
suit against the New Haven directors
which bids fair TO be the most important
criminal suit ever brought upder the
Sherman law, is soon to be initiated. In
addition II is understood among persons
close to the Department Of Justice that
many other important antitrust cases
which have been in course of preparation
for several months are nearing compl-
ton. The Attorney General is preeml-
nently an antitrust lawyer, and this fact
leads his friends to believe that he may
prefer to fulfill his ambition to blaze a
new pathway for interpretations Of the
Sherman law even to sitting upon the
Supreme bench.
There are many persons discussed as
possibilities for the Attorney GeneraIship
Highest on the list is Secretary of War
Garrison. 1t was stated soon after JUS
tice Lurton's death that the President
might have rendered Mr.. Garrison the
justiceship had he not been unwilling to
lose him from the War Department when
the Mexican situation seemed such an
uncertain quantity.
Secretary Of the Interior Lane is mem
toned as an important possibility a. Mr.
McReynolds' successor.
Representative A. Mitchell Palmer, the
candidate for the Senate
in Pennsylvania, whose chances of cleo
tion are not considered as of the best, is
said to be another man under considera-
ton. Representative Robert L. Henry, of
Texas who was a candidate for the Attor-
ney Generalship at the outset Of the Will
son administration, probably will renew
his candidacy should McReynolds retire,
but the presence of Postmaster General
another Texan, in the Cabinet
would in all probability eliminate him.
Solicitor OF the Interstate Commission
Joseph W. Folk is said to have his eyes
fixed upon the Attorney Generalship.

affected skirts in general and the mo-
distes have made q long subject short

There's a new headgear, too. It's like
a Jockey cap in form and coloring, Of

Between the skirt and the cap there is
more or less additional clothing; the less

and shoulders are barely visible.
It's from the skirt, or where the skirt

There's an endless variety of footwear
and legwear. Silk tights, silk stockings,

silk half-hose about half way to tile knee.

Bathing shoes have been considerably

of being easily slipped of to remove the

guns and a number OF prisoners.
! The guns were beauties. and men Of
the Second Corps rode them down the
road TO the river in triumph.
! When Sheridan began to push out his
cavalry beyond the Second Corps on the
roads to Richmond. he was attacked by
kershaw. who forced him back: but
the Federal cavalrymen dismounted and
took position behind a ridge, from
which they poured such a steady FIRE
from their seven-shooting carbines upon
the Confederate infantry that Kershaw
was repulsed, losing 80 prisoners and
two colors.
! From the developments OF the fore
noon. Gen. Hancock decided that to as
/ sault would be intudicious, while the
situation was such that IL the cavalry
advanced It might not be able to get
back without making long detour
! Under these circumstances he was con-
tent 10 hold his position.
In the afternoon Gen. Grant visited the
field. That evening he gave orders for
Hancock to hold his position another day.
The object OF the movement was being
attained without sacrifice OF men.
Gen. Lee, Immediately on learning that
the Federals had crossed the James. had
dispatched Gen. w. II. F. Lees division
OF cavalry TO the scene. followed by Gen
II. II. Heth's division of infantry OF Hills
corps. and then later by Gen. c. w.
Fields division. and. after nIghtfall. by
Gen. Fitz Lees cavalry division.
Thus on the night of July q practi-
cally three-ffths OF Lees army had been
withdrawn from Petersburg. Grant, and
not Lee. had commanded its withdrawal

stripped the city Of able-bodied men and
crippled the government departments by
taking away their clerks Before these
forces reached the works news was re-
ceived that the Federals had recrossed
the James on the 18th.
Gen. Grant on returning to Petersburg,
ordered the mine charged. The effect
that he had planned had been attained
Lee had detached two-thirds of his army
to protect the left OF his line. The lines
of Petersburg were but thinIy manned
Thus far all was going admirably well.
and Grant had no foreboding that the
inefficiency of the generals whom he was
to intrust with the explosion Of the mlne
