May, receives his mail and in the after
noon returns to the Presidents cottage
and works until toward evening The estab-
nshment OF the Office by the secretary
III Capo May has been Ill the nature of
an experiment that has not proven al
together satisfactory in its results. The
oOJcct In locating Office in Cape May
was 70 relieve the President as much as posi-
ole OF the cares Of office and to give him the
rest that he stands in need Of. The dis
tance between the two places. how
ever. and the uncertain means of
quick communication between them
there being but single wire that often fails to
work-has convinced the Secretary that he has

Ekely that he viii remove to some hotel here
