MACYEAGA TO QUIT
POST IN NOVEMBER,
RUM0RAT TREASURY
Controversy With Andrew
Still SINNERS, Despite At
tempts to Hush 1t.

In spite OF the fact the House and
Senate are showing no signs of investi-
eating the MacVeagh-Andrew trouble at
the Treasury. the controversy Is still
simmering.
The fact Andrew has powerful friends
among Senators and members of the
House who are apparently bent on get
ting the scalp of Secretary MacVeagh
prevents the controversy from being
healed over quickly.
Andrew Is the champion Of the Aldrich
monetary plan, and the friends of that
plan are bent on stirring up more trouble
for MacVeagh.
Rumors of Resignation.
Robust rumors that MacVeagh will
leave the Treasury Department In No
vember are current. These are denied
by the Secretary.
IL is generally believed that the re-
luctance of the President to have a
Cabinet split now will lead him to draw
the veil over the controversy and retain
MacVeagh. 1t is reported, however
that the President will start a personal
| investigation of the charges OF Andrew
against MacVeagh, and that this will be
done as soon as he returns.
This investigation Is expected to cor.
cern itself less with the MacVeagh.
| Andrew row proper than with the ques'
ton Of whether certain Treasury subord
| mates named by Andrew are loyal (
their chief
Should II be found that the Treasury
| Department is honeycombed with dis
loyalty to MacVeagh, the dismissal o.
other subordinates is likely to follow.
Officials Puzzled.
Officials of the Treasury Department
who are not on the inside" OF the rela
tions between Secretary MacVeagh am
A. Piatt Andrew, former Assistant Sec
-etary, continue to be frankly puzzle'
by the resignation of Andrew and avoy
that they have no information in tn
matter beyond what has appeared Il
the newspapers.
IF Andrew was unable to see the Sec
Ietary his experience was much dif
ferent than mine" said w. T. Thomp
son, solicitor OF the Treasury Depart
ment. today.
II was always able to gee the Secre
tary when ! wished to. Matters of lay
were referred to me, and the Secre
tary never seemed willing to act unit
the legal phase of matters was lai
clearly before him. have regarded hir
as a very keen business man and on
who Is able to see through a propositio
about as quickly as anyone l eve
knew"
Andrews a Hard Worker.
w. f. Andrews, auditor of the Treas
ury Department, said that he kne'
rcthing of the matter until 9:l5 o'cloc
the morning tho resignation became ei
fective. He was then requested to go I
Andrews office at 10 o'clock.
| Andrew superintcnded most of tn
publication work of the Monetary Com
mission, and Is credited with havin
done most of the hard work.
| His position as Secretary was al
| tributed to the influence Of Nelson A.
drich. former Senator from Rhode Is
Iand, and Andrew, so far as known, ha
| always been anxious to further tn
adoption of the Rhode Island Senator
| scheme for a rearrangement of the ma
tional currency and banking system.

GROUND HOG
DAY, FRIDAY
If He Sees His Shadow, More
Winter Coming.

Believers in the old tradition of
weather prophecy by the ground
hog, will watch for the conditions on
Friday of this week when that Hni-
NAL is scheduled TO come out OF his
hole on that day. According to all
previous signs II he should come out
and the sun Is shining SO that he
can see his shadow we are supposed
to have SIX more weeks of bad
weather. If on the other hand the
sky IL darkened enough to prevent
the ground hog from seeing its
shadow 1t Is an Indication that we
are to have an early spring.
Many who are believers In this
tradition of the ground hog, will
anxiously wait to see what kind of
a day Friday is to be. An examin-
'ation of the records of the past sew
|eral years however, shows that the
ground hog is far from infallfble.
Some OF the weathermen have gone
SO far as to say the little beast lis a
darned fraud, but that may be pro-
~fessional jealousy
Friday Is also Candlemas day,
when the annual ceremony of bless
ing candles for devotional use will
take place in the Catholic churches.
Some Hpiscopalians also observe the
day.

in attempting to right the girl he
was forced to give 1t up In despair.
She has since wandered about as q
vAgrant and was apprehended yes
terday by Patrolman Niels Tonnesen.
The arrest came as the result OF
much lettering about the Staten Is
land Rapid Transit ferry house by q
crowd of boys and youths. CHIEF OF
Police Burke suggested to his men
II they could nab the attraction II
would be more easy to dispense the
crowd OF boysa and youths. The girls
arrest followed and when one OF the
youths, Arthur Petersen, twenty
years old, became sassy to OFFICER
Tonnssen, his arrest followed. He
was fined SIS this morning.
