Washington, Nov. 7. The cabinet re tuscmblcd this morning alter a vacation of several months. As the president is preparing to leave tin- city again for two weeks' absence, ho discussed tiie various questions that will take promi nence In Ills annual message to con gress. Tlie Republican victory of Tuesday was Identified so clearly as an Indorse ment of the administration that it if) impossible to ignore the public senti ment in favor nf some amendment In the Sherman anti-trust law. President Roosevelt, in Ills lirst message to con press, made earnest recommendation that the Sherman law be so amended as to reach the most aggravated evils of trust organisation. At the same time lie directed his attorney general to be gin proceedings against the trusts that were believed to be violating the Sher man law. The president is convinced that the people demand some new legislation in regard to the trusts, and he not only will renew the recommendations In his message last year, but will emphasize them and place such recommendation first in ills message. It is a question of such vital Importance that he does not believe congress should delay action upon the point of finding a safe method of amending the law within constitu tional limits. Knox Has Paith. Attorney General Knox lias given close attention to this subject for many months and he is now convinced that congress has power to extend the Sher man act so as to reach the worst evils of trust organization. In his speech at Pittsburg on Oct. II. the attorney gen eral said that legislation by congress would indirectly affect production, but that fact could be considered no bar to such legislation. 'Congress under this power prevents the importation or transportation of articles deemed injurious to the general welfare," he said. "Tims the law sub jects the movement of explosives and absolutely excludes impure literature and diseased cattle, convicts and con tract, labor and scrutinizes and pre vents or checks many foreign and In terstate movements, throughout the ra the Held of international and na tional intercourse, in the Interest of all people, on grounds of commercial hy gienic or et Ideal policies. Who shall set limits now In advance of a carefully framed and judicially tested law to the competence of enngresss to regulate commerce in the way suggested, In the exercise oT the legislative wisdom, and In the wide discretion couthled to it? Who shall say that the power of con gress does not extend so far? I think it does. 1 am iuite stun no one can now say that it does not.'" The attorney general Is convinced that congress can amend the Sherman law so as to require publicity and pre vent the evil of over-capltallzatlon. He Is convinced also that the law can be so amended as to reach the great trusts which, under their present or ganization, evade the law, and at the same time Indirectly interfere with In terstate commerce and seek to mon opolize trade. The President Impressed. The president is very much Im pressed with the result of Attorney fieneral Knox's Investigation in regard to the trusts and the power of con gress to legislate, and ho will seek to convince congresss of the importance of amending the law at the coming ses sion. Practically all the. legislation suggested in his former message was taken caro of at the long session of the Fifty-seventh congress, The most im portant legislation, which failed, was that regarding reciprocity with Tuba. That will be handled now by the stalo department In a treaty which has been framed ami Is in possession of President I'altna at Havana, Thu state department expects a complete agreement upon the treaty with Cuba before thu assembling of ennuresss, and the treaty will bo sent to the senate for ratification. There Is now little doubt that the treaty will ho rntllled and thu Cuban question removed from cnntio versy hi the house, There remain only the trust question and the general appropriation bills be fore coifgress which require Imme diate attention. The president believes that congress can give some attention to the law at the coming session with out interfering with the work necessary in me passage of lite appropriation bills, lie will therefore, make this ques tion the important feature of his mes sage. The cabinet members agree with the president, especially those who have given much attention to general poll tlcnl questions and (he trend of senti ment throughout the. country.

TRYING TO LOCATE "JACK THE SLUGGER" Stato Officials, Including Governor, Interested in Mysterious Murder Case at Boston. fly KxcIumip Wire from The .Usod.itcd Prr.i. linston, Nov. 7. In the developments of tlie day in the Mason case, which has puzzled the police of Boston since Miss Clara A. Morton was struck down and killed in Waverly last Saturday, there are several striking details. No further evidence, however, lias been ad duced which tends to incriminate in tlie case Alan (J. Mason, the member of a. prominent family, who is under arrest on the charge of murder. In fact, the police are inclined tonight to tlie belief that .Mason stood out clearer in tlie light of an innocent man, because of the failure of Joseph Nemser, the West 12nd jeweler, to identify Mason as the man who bad offered for sale Miss Morton's watch last Saturday night. An important detail in connection with the disposal of the watches was thei establishment tonight that the sig natures on the checks kept on file by the jeweler in identification of the per-t-nns who offered him the articles, were written by one and the same person. This confirms the story that tlie two women were murdered by tlie same man. Another late incident was tlie arrest on suspicion tonight at Watertown or a young mulatto. He was brought here, nut Jeweler Nemser failed to identify him. The man was released. So serious has the case become that Governor Crane has interesetd himself and looked over I ho scene of tlie mur der while on a visit today to AVaveily.

News has been tecelved here concern ing the retreat of the revolutionary forces. It Is to the effect that on the night of Nov. 1, the revolutionists withdrew from their positions nenr La Victoria and San Mateo because they were without ammunition. Tlie fact that tlie rebels lacked cartridges caused a disagreement between General Matos and General Rolando, which was fol lowed by hot words. General Rolando declared that the shortage of ammuni tion was the fault of General Matos, and that If tho success of the revolu tion was endangered by this condition, General Ma'tos was alone responsible, lie said that all was lost and with his followers, about 3.200 men, be with drew from the main body of the reb els lu the direction of Alto. Gracla. It is reported that General Rolando pro claimed "El Mocho" Hernandez as the leader of the revolution. President Castro since lie discovered that the revolutionists only retreated because of their absolute lack of ammunition has caused them to be pursued day and night by government soldiers. The latest report issued by the gov ernment says that Genlarals Matos, Mendoza anil Rlera and their-commands are tleeing in disorder in an effort to reach thu mountainous dis tricts.
