WORK HELD INEFFICIENT Subordinate Begged to Be Allowed to Remain in Service, Says Sec retary of Treasury in Formal Statement. LANCASTER. Mass.. July 4. Declar ing that A. Piatt Andrew, assistant in the Treasury 'Department, resigned after repeated demands for his resignation, and not voluntarily. Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh today issued a statement giving the facts surround ing Mr. Andrew's connection with the department. Secretary MacVeagh, who Is a visitor at the home of Bayard Thayer, received many messages today expressing confidence in his adminis tration. The statement follows: "I regret that it seems necessary to refer to the letters published by A. Piatt Andrew and addressed to the President and to me. The virulence of the attack has probably limited its effect; but apart from the attack upon me he strongly misrepresented a num ber of the chief men of the Treasury Department to whom I attribute a large measure of the success of the depart ment work, and seems to deny that anything has been accomplished either by them or anybody else. I am obliged, therefore, to restore Mr. Andrew's res ignation to its proper light. Aadrew Aaked Realaa. "Mr. Andrew says he resigned be cause of the condition in the Treas ury Department, of which he disap proves. He did not resign voluntarily, but was asked to resign and asked repeatedly, and he used every effort and Influence to get the request for his resignation withdrawn, and pleaded to be allowed to continue In his place. And it was when be had failed to have the request for his resignation with drawn and because of this that be made his attack, and chose to give the im pression that his resignation was a matter of his own choice and deter mined upon for public reasons. "The details as to his resignation are as follows: "On June 24, when Mr. Andrew re turned from Chicago, I formally asked in a 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 I explained at length my rea ons and listened to all his arguments ind wishes. I felt, however, obliged to tell him the request for his resigna tion could not be withdrawn. I sup posed Mr. Andrew would send his resig nation promptly as a matter of course, as I had never known of a case where such a request had not been promptly complied with. Reply Is Vagae. "I waited, however, without reply tmttlJune J8. I then wrote again re peating the request. On the 29th Mr. Andrew sent me a brief note treating the matter with vagueness.- I replied Immediately, saying I could not accept vagueness but wished to have that day either his resignation or bis refusal to resign. To this be did not reply at all. And. therefore, on July z i wrote a fourth time renewing the request and communicating a copy of a letter ad dressed to me by the President author izing and directing me to ask for the resignation. I asked for a prompt re ply, stating that I was going out of town. I left Washington on the mid night train without hearing rom Mr. Andrew and saw in the next afternoon's papers long extracts from two acur rlllous letters, one to the President and one to me, which at last conveyed his unwilling resignation. "Meanwhile as I only learned after a week Mr. Andrew had diligently used the interval while I was waiting to secure all the information he could to aid him In keeping his place. Be sides arguing the case himself with me and with certain Senators and be sides having his case argued both at the White House and before me, he argued his case himself at the White House. "Mr. Andrew did not at any time men tion to me any objection to his treat ment in the Treasury iepartment, ex-. cept that be thought that I did not give him as much of my time as I ought and that I had sometimes allowed other callers to be received when he was in my room. "It was a great disappointment to me that Mr. Andrew was not efficient enough to meet the requirements and that it was necessary to get some one else. That is all there was to it, when the change was decided upon. Subse quently, In direct disobedience to my In structions and without my knowledge until -he had left Washington, he went to the Chicago convention when tbe other two assistant secretaries had al ready gone by previous arrangement. "This conduct must have led in any event to bis prompt separation from tbe department. Mr. Andrew, I see, has made a statement that he told me he wished to go to Chicago to further monetary legislation. This is clearly an after-thought. He made no mention whatever of the monetary question. He gave only one reason for wishing to go. He said he intended to go Into politics and the convention afforded a splendid opportunity to make political acquaintance." TEN DAYS CLEAR IN JUNE Weather Record Shows Mercury Hit 03 During Month.

LAZY HABIT IS BLAMED WOMAN SATS INDOIENT TRAIT ADVANCES MVTNG COSTS. Pride, Cold Storage and Modern Con. veniences Also Contribute to Price Boost, Thinks Mrs. Evans. Sheer laziness of the American people was suggested by Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, market Inspector, In an address before tbe Ad Club Wednesday, as one of the causes for the high cost or living. "I know one store here a small one at that where the bill -for delivery wagons each months amounts to $800," she said. "The customers are obliged to pay for this. If they went after their groceries themselves and did not expect every 10 cents' worth of onions or bar of soap delivered to them, it would do much to solve the problem of the high cost of living. Pride causes people to shrink from being seen In public with market baskets or pack ages in their arms. Public opinion rnuM do much to eliminate this one cause of the high cost of living." Cold storage and other moaern appli ances also were noted as contributing to the steady advance in prices for the means of life. Dr. Esther C. Pohl, speaking on "Cleaning Up a State," declared that since women have accomplished much .!.,,. ih. haiini. it Is reasonable to expect they will accomplish more good if given the rignt oi irancme. "The situation in our state," she said, "Is like the sltuatlbn In the home of a bachelor. It needs a woman's cleans ing touch." Father Conaty spoke on "The Flag of No meeting of the Ad Club will be held next week, owing to tne attrac tions of the Elks' Grand Lodge. The next date for a regular meeting is July 17.

MULKEY F0R CLEAN-UP Owner of Wolff Apartments 3Iay Cancel Lease. Following the raid on the Wolff apartments last week by order of Po lice Commissioner Coffey, F. W. Mul key, owner of the apartments, has an nounced that he will Investigate con ditions, and, if possible, cancel the lease. He says that furthermore he will investigate the character of the neighborhood, and. If he finds it un savory, he will resort to the law of Injunction to clean it up. He denied that he Intended to sue the city. "While, of course, the reputation of tha place has been somewhat damaged by the raid. I do not think any material damage has been done," said Mr. Mul key, "and even if there has I am doubt ful If, under the law, I would have any grounds upon which to base a suit against the city. "I have never In my life permitted any property owned by me to be used for immoral or for saloon purpose", although' In cases where I wan only part owner of property I could not help the use of the property for saloons. "I have Invested $50,000 In the Wolff apartments and have built It tor a respectable class of people and I in tend to see that It is used by such. A clause In the lease prohibits Its use for an Immoral class of people and as soon as I am satisfied that this clause has been violated I will make every effort to have the lease vacated. Be cause most of the defendants were dis charged in the police court I would likely have difficulty In canceling the lease as matters stand. "I will make a thorough Investiga tion, however, and will furthermore in vestigate the character of the neigh borhood, and if necessary I will resort to the law of Injunction to make the entlr- vicinity respectable." The use of the Injunction process to curb immoral persons is practically un known In the state. The only known case occurred about SO years ago when some undesirable tenants were ejected from their lodgings on Burnslde street. Missionary Convention Ends. CENTRALIA, July 4. (Special.)
