WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.—Reorg
anization of the president’s cabinet
is expected to be one of the main
features to speculate upon for the
next few months. It is reported that
Vance C. McCormick, chairman of
the democratic national committee,,
would accept the secretaryship of
war.
The president is known to hold a
high opinion of McCormick, but he
also has a high opinion of Newton
D. Baker, the present secretary of
war. The public criticism of Mr.
Baker, made during the campaign
have not been treated seriously by
the chief executive. Mr. Baker can i
hold the job as long as he wants it!
and he has repudiated the state- j
ments that he intends to resign by;
March 4, 1917.
Josephus Daniels is certain to re
main. This is due largely, it is said,
to a situation not of the president’s
making.| The much criticised secre
tary of the navy is reputed not to
possess enough wealth to accept an
ambassadorship, hence the difficulty
in switching him to another place.
Secretary Redfield is almost cer
tain to go, it is said. If the presi
dent has anybody in mind for Mr.
Redfield’s place, however, the selec
tion has not been made known.
The cabinet status of Postmaster
General Burleson and Secretary of
State Lansing is uncertain. It is
sure that Burleson will remain un
less there is a suggestion that he
resign or accept some other post.
Mr. Lansing is believed to be indif
ferent as to his future connections
with the state department. The
president likewise is believed to be
indifferent in the matter. Should
Mr. Lansing resign, there is every
indication that the place would be
offered to Frank Polk, now coun
sellor of the state department.
Praise for Polk.
The president has frequently ex
pressed high regard for Mr. Polk’s
ability and cleverness of thought
during critical international situs

SEATTLE, Nov. 20.—The seal herds
on the Pribilof islands in Bering sea
have inreased so rapidly since killing
of seals was prohibited that the gov
ernment will begin killing seals regu
larly next year, according to H. J.
Christoffer, assistant agent for the
United States bureau of fisheries,
who has returned to Seattle from an
inspection trip to the islands.
Mr. Christoffer made the trip on
the steamer Elihu Thompson, with
winter supplies for the islands. The
Thompson took to Seattle 7,000
seal skins killed to supply food for
the natives on the islands. The skins
will be shipped to St. Louis where
the government will sell them at I
auction.

treasury department, and Secretary j
Lane have established themselves in j
the confidence of the president and:

The suggestion has been made that
McAdoo would make a good secre
tary of war, but it went no further.
The administration is very well si
isfied in the manner with which
