To Retire
(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan)
Washington, May 10 ? The prospect
ive retirement of Attorney-General
Charles J. Bonaparte from President
Roosevelt's cabinet has caused much
comment. At fli-st it was given out that
the retirement was on account of the ill
health of the attorney-general- Later
it was said that his refusal to prosecute
the trust cases with the dispatch de
sired by President Roosevelt lead to
friction and that he will be required to
give way to a more vigorous prosecutor.
It was, also, said that he would become
attorney for one or more trusts.
This morning Mr. Bonaparte said
that the report that he was to resign
from the cabinet to bccorae the attorney
of trusts and that he was too friendly
with those organizations for the presi
dent was the work of enemies.
Another report, in circulation today,
his it that Bonaparte's retirement is
part of a campaign on the part of the
president to win the support of union
labor, which has shown unmistakable
signs of disapproval of his administra
tion. Bonaparte Is very unsatisfactory
to the laboring interests in the country.
