Postmaster General George b. Cortelyou
visited the President at Oyster Bay yester-
day. as reported IN The Star OF that date
1t Is understood that the secretary ship or
the treasury was offered TO Mr. CorteIyou
and tentatively accepted. the offer TO be-
come effective. Of course, upon the retire
ment OF Secretary Shaw next February.
Mr.. Cortelyou would not make a definite
statement. but when asked point blank
whether the offer had been made to him
and whether he had accepted he would not
deny 1t.
1t is thought to be certain that II Mr.. Cor
telyou VIII accept the secretaryship OF the
treasury he can have IT. But the point
under discussion related chiefly as to
whether Mr.. Cortelyou really thought the
treasury the place where he could render
the government and his party the best serv-
Tee. The decision lies with Mr. Cortelyou.
He is very we'll satisfied as Postmaster
General. but the President. IT is said. feels
that he would make just good Secre-
tary OF the Treasury Postmaster Gen
eral.
1T is a little early, isn't IT," said Mr. Cor
teiyou to the correspondent. ito talk OF
successor to Mr.. Shaw. who, by all
counts. won't retire TIL February? why
don't you ask Mr.. Shaw about it?'
He told that Mr.. Shaw had said he
after he got out That's complimentary
to his successor" remarked Mr.. Cortelyou,
but the fact IS. cannot discuss that mat
ter now"
While parrying questions relative to his
conference with the President Mr.. CorteIyou
WhiIed away few moments before his
train left by telling story
Mr.. Cortelyou's summer home is I'm Hemp
stead. l.. l. The first day he went there
this summer he found a riCkety little con-
veyance at the station that passed a
public hack. Mr.. Cortelyou entered II. On
the way the driver, who German. stop
ped before place lettered Post Office,
and said to Mr.. Cortelyou. VIII you pleece
hold de lines while | take dees mail DOWN"
Certainly" said Mr.. Cortelyou. Are you
the mall carrier here?
ooh, yaas," the driver replied.
"Well, I'm sort of mail carrier myself
remarked the Postmaster General biandly.
"Ach %" said the cabman. You one OF
dem fellers in gray uniform NIT buttons, so
SOP"
The Postmaster General didn't dare
plain further, for the driver already
overcome with admiration.
Mr.. Cortelyou was in excellent spirits
when he came down from the Hill. He
said he wasn't going to Washington until

Boycott

Edwin II. Conger of Iowa, formerly United
States minister to China. and since last
April the American ambassador to Mexico,
will return in the near future, il present
plans carried into effect, to China His
mission Will be of a semi diplomatic nature,
the specific purpose of which VIII be to al
lay. if possible. the agitation aroused in
parts of the Chinese empire against the
use by the Chinese Of American products.
He has been scarcely more than three
months at his new post in the City of Mex
leo. He was summoned here to confer with
the President about the Chinese boycott
of American goods. He had long confer
ence with the President at oyster Bay yes
terday. While neither the President MOI
Ambassador Conger cared to discuss for
publication the nature Of their interview. Il
is known that the ambassador will not re-
turn to Mexico and that arrangements are
making for his projected mission to Picking.
Mr.. COnger spent eight years in China
the American minister. He is well known
and popular among the officials OF the
Picking government, and is influential also
among the Japanese. who are likely to play
an important role In the International af-
fairs of China from this time forward His
selection therefore, as special commissioners
on a matter affecting the trade relations
of the United States and China is regarded
as peculiarly appropriate.
1t is expected that Mr.. Conger will be
succeeded as American ambassador to Mex
leo by ID. e. Thompson, who is now Ameri-
can ambassador to Brazil. Mr.. Thompson
is resident of Nebraska. and was APP
pointed minister to Brazil with view to
giving him Il more important diplomatic
post when the opportunity offered. Suisse
quentiy the American mission to Bra ri!
was elevated to an amba adorshp Mr.
Thompson, it is known has expressed a
desire to represent the United States in
Mexico, and that desire is likely soon to be
gratified.
