ALGER RESIGNED
But His Resignation Has Not Been
Accented.


NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-The Wash
ington Correspondent of the World
telegraphs the following:
Secretary of War Alger has placed
his resignation at the presidents dis
posal. This was his last official act be-
fore leavin Washington ten days ago,
yet the + CT has just come to light.
Wien the secretary called at the ex-
ecutive mansion one week ago Thurs
day night he presented to President
Mckinley letter asking for an inves-
tigation of the war department and its
various subdivisions. He informed
the president that he would leave the
cabinet any time the president saw fit
to relieve him. The resignation was
not made in writing, but rendered to
the president verbally.
The World correspondent adds:
whether or not the resignation will
be accepted is undetermined. McKin-
ley has the highest regard for Alger
and believes him to be worthy and
official. Unless an investi-
cation determines to the contrary the
president will probably stand shoulder
to shoulder with his secretary.
LEXINGTON, KY, Sept. 20.-Secre-
Alger would not submit to an inter-
view, but denied through his private
secretary that he offered his resigna-
tion to President Mckinley when he
asked for an investigation.
