MACVEACH DECLARES He
ASKED ANDREW TO QUIT
Says Request for Resigs alton Was Re
peatediy Made and A. Often WITH
drawn at Aids Entreaty.

Lancaster, Mass, July 6.--Franklin
MacVeagh, secretary Of the treasury
issued a statement on Thursday giving
the history of the controversy which
resulted In the resignation OF A Piatl
Andrew, assistant treasurer.
Mr.. MacVeagh declares that IN.
stead Of Andrew resigning OF his own
free will. he was several times asked
to resign. but on each occasion In
stead of rendering his resignation
called upon the secretary OF the treas
ury and had the request Tor his res,g'
nation withdrawn. It Was when AS
sistant Secretary Andrew failed to
have his latest request complied with,
according to Secretary MacVeagh,
that he made his attack and chose to
give the impression that his resiTna-
ton was purely a matter OF his own
choice.
THE viruIence OF the attack" says
the secretary, has probably limited
its effect, but apart from the attack
upon me he strongly misrepresents
huibpci VI Tue SHlci luou vi sho si>sA"
ury department to whom ! attribute
a large measure o. the success OF the
department work and seems to deny
that anything has been accomplished
either by them or anybody else.
Il am obliged, therefore. to restore
Mr.. Andrews resignation to Its prop
er light. The details as to his resig-
nation are as follows: On June "a.
when Mr.. Andrew returned from Chi
cago, I formally asked in note for his
resignation. He called on me at once
to urge me to change my mind and
allow him to stay. At his wish | ex-
planned at length my reasons and
listened to all his rguments and
wishes. felt, howe, er, obliged to
tell him the request for his resigna'
ton could not be withd rawn."

FIND VALVE OF D!RlGlRLE.
Divers Recover Evidence That Vanl-
man Knew Danger, Opened Outlet

Atlantic City, N. j., July S.-Divers
have found the valve OF the gas bag
of the Inflated dirigible Akron. No
trace of the bodies of Melvin Vani-
man, Walter Guest or Fred Elmer has
been found. The valve was open held
so by light chain which had evident
ly been pulled just before the acci-
dent while Vaniman and his crew
were fighting to bring the ship to a
lower level This has given rise to
the theory that sparks from the over
heated middle engine communicated
with leak in the pipe which relayed
the gas from the valve proper and
caused the explosion.
