Young Man Was There with the
Oily Approval to a Nauseat-

A story told of the late James +. JOY

weak in his likes or dislikes, and among
the things that he dearly liked were
honesty and naturalneSs. The attempt to
appear what one we've not was to antag-
onlze HIM, says the Cincinnati CONNER
cIal Tribune.
Mr.. Joy had many positions at his dis
Iosal, and an applicant for one of them
came with gilt-edged credentials. The
ycnng man presenting them was of good
appearance, finely educated, and the son
OF one whom the financier had respected

would have a walkover.

not t. discuss with the newspaper men
the proceedings OF the cabinet, has
created no little amusement, mixed
with just a tinge of resentment, on
the part of the cabinet officers. They
do not object to being cautioned by
their chief to refrain from divulging
cabinet secrets, but the impulSive,
characteristic Roosevelt style of the
letter is not altogether palatable.
The truth is that very few of the
cabinet officers would consent 10 be
ing muZzled for any length of time.
They are all men of Independent
thought and action, although there are
two or three of the number who are
exceedingly close-mouthed about pub

cracks just as many jokes with his

Mr.. DENLY was through the horrors

14th of July, 1900" said Mr.. DENLY,

own family, myself and the friends
who with us were besieged in the Gel

back at it Low, our escape from slaugh-

miracle. That Boxer uprising was no
trivial affair, I can tell you, and had
the Chinese been a militant people
they would have wiped cut the imr~is-

band of Indians scalped an immigrant

of those gallant Yankee marines who
to our rescue did not thrill oul
very souls! Only those who have suf-

paper nan and give him material for
a good dispatch on state affairs. The
wording of the message was rather I'M
fortunate, as it seemed to bring in
question the integrity and reliability
or each member of the cabinet, and
also reflected upon newspaper CORE
%spOndents as being beggars for news
papers instead of demanding it as a
right and in the interest of the public.
He also restricted the cabinet officers
in this message to giving departmental
news to the press associations, there
by practically ruling special CORE
spondents out of business.
1t is known that this letter was die
tated because the press associations
had complained that while they OBJ
served the presidential injunction re-
garding the publication of cabinet
news, the special correspondents would
fuller dispatches on the same subject.
primarily the letter was intended
to protect the press associations. 1t is
safe to say that had George B. Cortel-
you been secretary to the president in
stead of William Loeb, Jr., this letter
would have never reached the cabinet
In it's present shape. Mr.. Cortelyou is
a tactful and observing individual, and
he would have seen in a moment the
offensive parts of this communication
and would have toned them down into

compelled to transcribe accurately the
exact language the president used in
1ictation.
