RESIGNATION OF
". G. McADOO
IS ACCEPTED
Declares War Is Over and His Official
Tasks Have Been Strain; Impera-
tive That He Take Rest.

Washington, November 23-William
Gibbs McAdoo, Secretary of the Treas
ury, Director General of Railroads
and often discussed as one of the pre-
sidential possibilities of 1920, has re-
signed his offices to return to private
business.
President Wilson has accepted his
resignation. Mr.. McAdoo will give up
the Treasury portfolio as soon as
successor has been selected. He wish
ed to lay down his work as Director
General of Railroads by January l.,
but will remain if the President has
not then chosen successor.
Upon the new Secretary of the
Treasury, whoever he may be, will
devolve the task of financing the ma
tion through the transition period of
war to peace, which probably will in
clude at least two more Liberty Loans
and possibly also further revision of
the system of war taxation.
Letters between President Wilson
and Mr.. McAdoo, made public yester-
day with the announcement of the re-
signation, wive Mr. McAdoo's reasons
for leaving the Cabinet solely as ne
cessity for replenishing his personal
fortune, and express the Presidents
deep regret at losing his son-in-law
from his official family.

EMERGENCY HOSPITAL TO CLOSE

On Monday, December 2, the emerg-
ency hospital on Bridge street will
close. 1t is thought by that time those
patients who are there now will have
recovered sufficiently as to be dis
charged, and as there were only three
new cases reported in the city Fri
day, and as the disease is abating
throughout the county, it is felt the
need of continuing the hospital has
past and it will be closed on the above
date.

EARLY MORNING
fire CAUSED
Big DAMAGE
Old PlOw Shop Building and Joseph
II. DOdsOn's Coal Elevators Burn
ed, With Heavy Loss.

Saturday morning about o'clock
the building on Front street, West OF
Wall, known as the old Plow Factory,
and Joseph H. Dodson's Coal elevators
were discovered on fire, the origin of
which is a mystery, and the prompt
response of the Fire Laddies is all
that saved that particular section
from a disaster.
The January & Wood Company pro-
prietors of the Maysville Cotton Mills,
was using the old plow factory build
ing as a storage warehouse, in which
they had a large quantity of baled
cotton, some finished product, severa!
hundred empty barrels and about one
thousand wire-bound cases, and all of
this was either destroyed or badly
damaged. They carried S17,500 insur-
ance on the stock, which with some
salvage on the raw cotton will cover
their loss, while the building is to-
tai loss.
The losses will foot up about $685."
0OO
At first when the Fire Department
arrived on the scene things looked
bad for the new electric light plant
just across the alley from the burn
ing structures, while the whole row of
residences on Second street South of
the fire seemed doomed, but quick ac-
ton and good team work on the part
of the fire boys, together with volun-
teer firemen and the fire fighters at
the Cotton Mills confined the fire to
the place where it started.
This is the third time the old build
ing has been either destroyed or par
TALLY destroyed by fire, the most de-
structive one happening about thirty
five years ago.
All day Saturday it was necessary
to keep streams of water playing on
the ruins for fear of fresh outbreak

JOHN b. CROPPER BADLY
INJURED

Thinking he was doing the G. & o.
railroad company the proper thing,
John B. Cropper, an aged resident of
Lewis county, came very near losing
his life Friday afternoon. In placing
some cars on the siding at Bates, east
of Bull creek, the local freight en-
gineers tank was derailed and Mr.
Cropper, who happened along about
the time the accident occurred, stop
ped to watch the crew rerail the tank.
While he was watching proceedings a
freight train hove in sight coming
west, with all the blocks set at white.
Mr.. Cropper, thinking the train would
run into the rerailed tank, started out
| up the track waiving the engineer to
stop, but he paid no attention to Mr..
Choppers warning signals and came
on. This did not suit Cropper, who
became the more frantic in his en-
deavor to have the train stopped and
went on toward the oncoming train,
and when a short distance from the
engine attempted to clear it by get
ting on the side, but the engine struck
him, and in the fall he sustained a
broken arm and bruises about the
head and body. He was brought to
this city and given medical attention
and taken to his home later, The yard
crew assisted in getting the derailed
tank back on the rails without much
delay.

MISS MARY FRANK HUGHES
MAKING GOOD IN MARION
Former Maysyille Young Lady Highly
Compllmented In Her Work In
the Indiana City.

Word comes to us from Marion, Ind,
that another one of Maysville's for
mer residents is making good. Miss
Mary Frank Hughes, who was for
merly in charge of the Mission in this
city, is commended on the work that
she has been doing as executive Sec
retary of Federated Charities of that
city in several articles appearing in
the Marion papers.
One of the articles contain a sum
mary of the work done by the FEEDER
ated Charities in that city last year.
1t states that the purpose of the or
ganization is to care for needy fam
lilies in their homes, promote cooper
alton of all welfare agencies, and
serve as sort of clearing house for
all social problems. In the fulfllment
of this purpose, all cases reported to
us are Investigated thoroughly, and il
| emergency need is found to exist, re-
lief is given Immediately. An effort is
made to find the remedy for the con-
ditions that caused the distress, and
if possible prevent the return of these
conditions. We strive through the
medium of case work, to offer the kind
Of assistance that is ladder by which
people may climb back to a normal
basis Of self-support, rather than a
crutch on which they must continue
to lean for all
All work is done in the closest pos
sible cooperation with such local
agencies as Y. w. C. A., Y. NJ. C. A.,
township trustees, board of health,
truant officers, probation officers,
board of childrens' guardians, and al
SO with the board of state charities
and organizations of otner cities
Charity and social work is so organ
lied that no case is ever dropped. Let
ters come to this office from all parts
of the country concerning people who
are at present, or were at some time
in this community. Quite lengthy
report in detail of the work is also
contained in the article, demonstrats
ing that the organization done a great
work during the past year, in helping
its needy citizens help themselves.
| In another article, Judge Charles
commends the work by saying Il am
sure the Federated Charities has done
a good work in Marion and | am for
it. Many unfortunate boys and girls
appear in juvenile court who go
wrong on account of poor environ
ment and poverty-stricken condition.
The average citizen is big enough to
want to help these unfortunate ones
but the problem is to get him to see
the necessity. When people are help
ed by a systematic organized effort
crime is diminished"
Prosecuting Attorney Pickerill point
ed out that the Federated Charities
not only materially aided worthy fam
lilies, but was a clearing house fol
crime. He often refers cases of hus.
bands failing to provide, to Miss
Hughes who restores normal domes-
tic conditions thereby saving the hus.
band jail sentence with its attend,
ant evils and also saving the city and
county much court expense. He paid
a high compliment to the sympathetic
and efficient work of Miss Hughes.

lack of harmony in different parts of

clared to be growing in the west
where Rhenish republic is said to be
planned.

Council, at a meeting, declared itself
in complete accord with Bolshevism
