March Likely See Little Coolidge Cabinet Change Krai Ko-orf'aiii/.atioii Kn|mt(?mI Take I'lurt* in Interim After (!?iipros? Has Adjourned and Kven Thru Many Will Itelain I'url folio* Ily DAVID I.WVKKNri: C?rl|M IKI k> Tli? M,|| Washington, Nov. 21. ? Although this diction is three weeks old, enough has happened to indicate that very few changes will be made in the cabinet of President ("oolidge on the fourth of March and that the real re -organization of the official family will take place in the interim after Congress has adjourned. There is at the moment 110 certainty that there will be a single vacancy. Even James J. Davis, Secretary of Labor, may stay. In announrlnt; tlio fact that Mr. Davis had volunteered Ms resigna Atton, the President was careful to ^^ldicate that ho still hoped to pre vail on Mr. Davis to remain. Thorp arc certain circumstances under which he may be prevailed upon. Tin- job of selecting a S? c retary of Labor is no easy one and as a rule stirs up all sorts of fac tional difficulties, the best solu tion of which may prove in this case the retention of the incum bent. Mr. Davis' relationship, however, to the fraternal order of the Moose of which he is the vir tual head may require his return to private life. The only other vacancy that has been regarded as certain is that of the Interior department. It has been reported that Secretary Work wished to leave oil the fourth of March but the talk is atlll in the vague stage. Some cabinet officers like their Jobs so well that they naturally want to stay. Others are more or leas indifferent and will stay if the President insists. Technical ly all the cabinet officers submit their resignations to take effect on March 4th but when an adminis tration is elected to succeed its:? If these resignations an- as a rule perfunctory. Mr. Coolldge. how ever. is In a somewhat different position. He did not select all the men who compose his cabinet. He la responsible for Attorney General Stone. Secretary of th. Navy Wilbur, and the new Secre tary of Agriculture, who will, of oourse, stay only till March 4th as he has been elected governor of L West Virginia. r This leaves Secretary of State Hughe.., Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, Secretary of Commerce Hoover. Secretary of War Weeks, Secretary of Interior Work. Secre tary of l?ahor Davis, and Postmas ter General New as the appointees of the late President Harding. ]l4 cause of the individual relation ship to their portfolios, the reten tion of Messrs. Hughes. Mellmi and Hoover may be regarded as auf?. The other four portfolios may not aee immediate changes, but some of the Incumbonts might of their own Initiative desire to return to private life or elective Offices. Iloth Mr. Weeks and Mr. New are former members of the United States Senate. Mr. Weeks was caught In the maelstrom of local politics in Massachusetts in 1918 after a good legislative rec ord in the Senate here. ? Mr. New was the victim of a division in his own party in Indiana when he |n*t to Beveridge in the primaries, anil then Iloveridge was In turn beat en by Ilalston, Democrat. Faction al quarrel* played a part in the final result. Summarizing the entire cabinet situation Therefore, the chances of change would seem to narrow down to four portfolios ? war de partment, labor. Interior, postof fice, and of these labor and inte rior are the only ones In which there has been an indication that the Incumbents are anxious to re turn to private life. The cabinet of President Coolldge on the Whole will undergo little change for another year at least. I fatal injuries x IN AUTO COLLISION llurllngton. Nov. 26. ? J. Hardy Duly of Loulavllie.

Add i?> Sheutsley, wife of the pastor of tin' exclusive Christ Lutheran Church at JJexIcy, science will claim the credit. The formulae of old Sherlock Holmes detective methods broke down coinph-tely under the baffl ing, mysterious killing. Cliemin try established the fact of murder. Pathology, working with tip charred remains of the minister's, wife. |k counted on to confirm the meann us? d In commission of the crime. I'sychlul rists may then he railed to determine whether there Is a mental complex In any of thore questioned which could sug gest a tendency toward Impulses that lead to murder. I'nleKK this cycle of scientific analysis roots out the method of slaying and Its cause, the killing of Mrs. Sheutsley will remain ! among the most unsolvable of j mysteries. Apparently without motive, it has left nothing tang ible behind upon which to base ar-, rest p. The lnv< stigatlon. Prosecu tor John X.

Evidence of murder has left unaltered the conviction of the Rev. Mr. Sheatsley and his two ?^n*. Clarence and Milton, that *uiclde wax the cause ?t tup float h of the wife and mother. Weeks of questioning have brought no break In tlie fltory ??f the members ??r the Hheataloy fam ily. They have accounted abso lutely for their movements be ,tw?en 1:45 p. in. last Monday af .ternoon and 18:15 p. m. when Clar ence returned and found bin moth era' body hurninK In the furnace. Hut the authorities h( 1 1 1 aro un able to understand why Clarence and later Milton failed to show concern over tho fart that their ( mother was holng conminu'd by a 'furnace Are. They are unable to understand why these boya aft??r this finding should nonchalantly leave the house to play football, leaving the body on the blaze, wonderlna at the same time how the two boya could give Indica tion of so little sorrow over the Ions of their mother. They are In addition at a loss to explain why the Rev. Mr. Sheats ley after coming home about 4:30 o'clock and finding hla wife burn ing. still did not attempt to put out the fire. Here the situation reaches an impasse. There Is no evidence that any one entered the house after Clarence left at. 1:45. Hit movements have been checked completely till hla return when the body was found, and his moth jer was seen after hla going, as the last of thrt family to depart from the house. Still the burning body, almost destroyed, was found only an hour and a half later. The mystery has upset the aris tocracy of the suburb llcxloy In one of the moat exclusive of Co lumbus : uburba, and the home of the Capital University, a Luther an institution. It la the center of the Lutheran district, with the Hov. Mr Sheataley one of the most prominent of church men.
