CIAL SCHEME Confirmation From Every Side That Bryan, McAdoo and Daniels Will Get Appointments WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 The pi-;: of union labor for representation in the President's Caliiiit may be recog nized in the selection of It-i.r-ienta-tive Uiliiam it. Wilson, of I'ur-vi. vania, to be secretary 0f the ne-iv-created Department of I.a:;o: This information, aloni; with oth-r n-iia'.'e advices, came to the political leaded at the Capitol today di'e;t from Tr-n. ton. Representative V. ilson ha3 been Indorsed by the American Federation of Laior. and was at one time ecr,-. tary of the L'nited Mine Wonvc-ri of America. From the same sources it was learn ed that William B. Itedfield. of Urook lyn, might be made a member of the Cabinet. For what portfolio he is considered wag not divulged, hut it is known that the ' I'resident-ele, t holds the hiu-best regard for Ke.j fleld s views on the tariff, and has for some time hoped to have him an one of bis close advisers. About the future of three portfol iosAgriculture, Interior and War little is known, and it is hinted that they will be filled by men whose names have not been irenerallv men tioned heretofore. Though William A. G!asi,'o. Phil adelphia lawyer, and Edgar Farrar, of New Orleans, former president of the American liar Association, are re ported to be still under consideration, the most reliable information obtain able today is that James C. McRev nolds, of New York, will be tbe n w Attorney-General. oniirmaiion comes from every side that the President-elect ba se lected William J. I'.ryan for .Secretarv of the Treasury; William G. McAduo for Secretary of the Navy; .losepiim Imniels for secretary of the Nai viand Representative Albert IUi.-I.-ko;,. of Texas, for Postmaster-General. The name of Loui3 D. lirandels stili is known to be uppermost in Wilson's mind for Secretary of Commerce, as the post now held by Nagel probably will be called hereafter. It is said Mr. Wilson from the firs:, was anxious to place a Progres -ive Republican in bis Cabinet, and the selection of UranJels Is believed to be a repult of that desire. The information as yet with re spect to diplomatic posts is meager. It became known here todav that Frederick C. Penfield. of p'hiladel--p'ala. and Henry N. Morgenthau. oft New York, very likely would be chos-, en for Ambassadors, the former to Rome pnd the latter to Dcrlin. Lively discussion was precipitated in Congregressional circle, by a put)-, iisnea statement credited to President-elect Wilson that he Intended to spend part of each working diy in the President's room at the Capitol, to keep in closer touch with ti.e leg islative officers. Such action on the part of the President would overturn a prwedem htca las re.structed t.ie rreaioent a visit to the Capitol to the oi a session of Congress. out a rep y. in which the -mt.tt. itiforn.id Morgan tt Co. that its re 'Hftt hal been made January 27. sin. e v. hen tae committee bad been at wo-k on its report for a month. You.' i;ie:;orai;di;in," the reply coti I'lded. "manifestly co:ues too late to be ot al ;-." The Morean letter laid at the doer of the present bai.kir.j ar.d t-trrew-y law, the respon-iaility for any "coti cent ration of money and credit that may exist. ' In us conclusion as to tile commit-, tee's activities, tut letter said: i "We venture to submit that in a j !'- on -f public opinion there li.-s the ireavst salesuard v'. the community. ; Tue 'public are the ore s who -nrrt I bankers with such ii.iiueiice and pow. I er as tiiey today have in ever? civil- j ized land and the public is unlikely j to entrust that power to weak or evil hands. Your counsel asked witnesses whether the present power held by bankers in the country would not be a menace if it lay in evil hands. If Congress were to fall in evil hands the results might be deplorable, iiut to uh it seems as littie l;ke!v that the citi.'.ens of this country will fill Con gress nth rascals, as it is that they will entrust the leadership of their business. and financial affairs to a set of ( lev. r rogues." Til? letter savs that snth enp.-n. t ration of money in New York as has occurred is due to the "antiquated banking system" and the natural law which -in every country creates some one -lty as the great financial center." That part of th- money trust reso lution declaring that it 13 "generally believed that groups of financiers cre ate, avert and compose panics," was particularly attacked by the letter. Morgan & Co.. set for that any with , holding of money or credit by one man m any market would be "prompt ly relieved by the automatic flow of credit trom some altogether foreign source. ' "We regret," said the letter, "that a belief go incredible, so abhorrent ind so harmful to the country should for a moment have found lodgment anywhere. And we welcome your in vitation as an opportunity for us to state, to the extent of our observa tions and experience, there is not ev en a vestige of truth in the idea that in v.-hole or in part, the financial con vulsion of lfej? was brought t.irough the design of any man or men."
