WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-Apropos of the
reported strained relationship existing be-
tween Secretary F.lger and Assistant Sec.
rotary New, the following story was told
to-day: Two or three months ago there
was some trouble at the bureau of print
ing. report was started that the resig-
nation of Supt. c. Irish had been asked
for. A friend of Irish asked New about
the matter. Mr.. New said it
had been decided to remove Irish.
The gentleman sought Secretary
Folger and told him what he had heard.
1T seems to me,' said Mr.. Folger, shat
Mr.. New knows more about those affairs
than do. Mr.. Irish is not going to be re-
moved. You can GO back and tell Mr.. New
So" His visitor suggested that that in
formation would come with more authority
from Folger himself. s.That may be so,
but tell Mr.. New nothing" Rumors of
News resignation seem TO- be assuming
the dimensions of a fact. 1t originated in
the treasury department. Friends of the
assistant secretary, however, contend that
he is too strong with the
president to be coached by Folger, and
that in case the latter resigns, New will
Jump into his shoes. One of them put the
matter in different aspect, by saying if
any one leaves the department it will be
Folger, and not New. The latter is the
stronger and there is not room enough in
t he treasury for both.
