necessity for replenishing his person i al fortune, and cypress the presidents deep regret at losing his son-in-law from his official family.
 The following letters were made public with the announcements:
 i. MT. McAdoo's letter of resignation, dated Nov. IA, follows:
 Dear MT. President:
 Now that the armistice has been at liberty to advise you of my desire to return as soon as possible to pri- vate life.
 "I have been conscious for some time of the necessity of this step, but. of course, I could not consider it while the country was at war.
 For almost six years have worked necessarily under the pressure of great responsibilities. Their exactions have drawn heavily on my strength. The inadequate compensation allowed by law to cabinet officers Gas you know I receive no compensation as director general of railroads) and the very burdensome cost of living in Washington have so depleted my personal resources that I am obliged to reckon with the facts of the situa- tion
 '1 do not wish to convey the inn pression that there is any actual inn pairment of my health, because such is not the fact As a result of long overwork I need a reasonable period of genuine rest to replenish my en- ergy But more than this I must, for the sake of my family, try to retrieve my personal fortune.
 "I cannot secure the required rest nor the opportunity to look after my long neglected affairs unless l am relieved of my present responsibilities
 'T am anxious to have my retire ment effected with the least possible inconvenience to yourself and to the public service. but it would, I think be wise to accept my resignation now as secretary of the treasury. to be- come effective upon the appointment and qualification of my successor so that he may have the opportunity and advantage of participating prom ptly in the formulation of the poli- cies that would govern the future work of the treasury. l would sug gest that my resignation of director general of railroads ecome effective January 1, 1919, or upon the appoint. ment of my successor.
 "T hope that you will understand,

FORMER KAISER NOT LIKELY
 TO DIE OF HUNGER

Amsterdam Nov 24-"How Will liam Held Out is the title of an arti- cle in the Frankfort Volks Stimme, by Wilhelm Carle, a Socialist, who discovered the hoards of provisions which the former emperor had in his Berlin palace.
 ''The quantity" the writer says, exceeds all expectations. In large, white tiled rooms was everything, lit erally everything one can imagine in foodstuffs. It is inconceivable that after four years of war such huge quantities could be hoarded, There was meat and game in cold storage, salted provisions in large cases, white meal in sacks piled to the roof, thousands of eggs, gigantic boxes filled with tea, coffee. lard. choco- late, jelly and jam; hundreds of sugar
