CONTIGUOUS DENIAL
OF Resignation Rumors Should Stop
All Such Yarns.

Washington, Jan. 15.--Secretary Cor
telyou was at his desk in the treasury
department today. At the White
House 1t was said positively that MOTH

Secretary Cortelyou's appearance at
tho department was the first since his
recent illness which began about four
weeks ago. He still shows evidence Of
his severe attack of the grip. but ex-
presses hope that he can from tomor-
row on attend to his duties.
He said that the published story
that he had resigned or would resign
was absolutely without foundation. He
had no serious differences with the
President. ne declared. or with any
member of the cabinet and he expect
ed 20 continue to serve as secretary Of
the treasury.
Mr.. C0rtelyou pronounced the story
that, he had been offered the presidency
of the Knickerbncker Trust Co, of New
York as absolutely without foundation
and said also that the published repor,
that he had conferred with J. p. Nor
gan in regard to it during his recent
trip to New York was "a fake" Dur
ing his visit to New York, he said, he
had not seen Mr.. Morgan or any one
else in his interests nor had he been
within number of miles OF Wall
street.

NOT DEEMED ADVISABLE.
Massachusetts Commission Doesn't
Recommend City Docks.

Boston, Jan. 15.-The construction
of a system Of metropolitan docks in
Boston is not deemed advisable at this
time by the harbor and land commits
sion in its annual report, sent to tha
Legislature today. The board has
made an exhaustive examination of
the commerce of the city in COM
pliance with the request Of the las
Legislature. as to the cost and adviS-
ability Of such docks. with the idea
that the construction and ownership
should rest with the state. The board
states in it's report that the cost of
constructing and maintaining Il sys-
tenn of docks would depend entirely on
the cost Of the land and the flats
where they may be located, and the
size. number and equipment. The
board submits the cost of the con-
struction of one of the state docks Of
South Boston, which had been but lit
tie used.
The board arrives at the conclusion
that at present metropolitan docks are
inadvisable, although the time may
come when such a public work would
become necessary.
