the Interior in the original Wilson
cabinet, but declined because he then
was mayor. He is understood to be in
thorough accord with the President on
the preparedness program and foreign
questions.
An offer of the War secretaryship
was made to Mr.. Baker by telegraph
several days ago, after the President
had spent more than three weeks care
fully going over long list Of those
suggested to succeed Secretary Gar
rison. MIR. Baker accepted, and upon
being notified, that he would be NOM
mated at once, telegraphed that he
would come to Washington.
