WASHINGTON, May: 1.-The ru
mors started to the effect that there
will soon be two vacancies In the Pres
tdent's Cabinet, caused by the fesigna
tion Of Secretary Of State Root aud
Postmaster General Meyer, are de-
clared to be unfounded by those whc
ought to be In position to know. Both
Secretary Root and Postmaster Gener
al Meyer are out Of Washington, the
former nt the bedside Of his dying
brother at Clinton N: /, and tie iIa{
ter at his home at; Milton Mass.
! The story Of Secretary; Roots resig
na has long been ,aaoat in Washing
ton, and It seemed to have considers
Bile Foundation, for; It was known that
during the winter. Mr. Root was any
thing but satisfied with his position,
Within the last few months, however
1t Is said that these conditions haye
changed, and Mr.. Root has abandoned
all IDEAS of retiring, at least at; jthe
present time: 4!
AS for sMr. Meyer, he had hardly
been in the! cabinet position long
enough 10 make up his mind whether
he likes 1t or not. He has had de,
sire torepresent his home district in
Congress, but as that district is repre-.
sented by Gussie Gardner, the son.ln
law OF Senator Lodge, It has Kept The
senior Senator from Massachusetts
busy hunting places for Mr.. Meyer, Sc
as to, keep him out Of; the, congresslon,
al race and leave the field clear for
his son.in.law. When Gardner was
first; elected Mr.: Meyer sSE4was sent
abroad as an ambassador and moved
from Italy to Russia, and finally plung'
ed into the cabinet. II the Lodge fam,
lily can prevent 1t, Mr.. Meyer will not
resign, so that he may be able TO 60
back into Massachusetts and become
a political factor there. Mr.. Meyer
has taken occasion to deny the rumor
that be intends to resign, and says
that he is out Of Washington on bus,.
ness connected with the Postofice De
partment. Mrs. Meyer and her two
daughters have found Washington SO
ciety very pleasant and congenlal, and
as they have been here but, a short
time they are not willing after sever.
al years participating in the gayetIes
of European capitals to retire from the
social whirl in Washington after q
few months experience, and they are
decidedly opposed to going back to the
quietude Of Milton, Mass, before they
have had at least one season Of Wash
ington society.
