Previous to his departure for New York and Al- ‘bany afternoon, Secretary Manning called at the White House and placed his resicna- ton tn the hands of the President, to take effect on the appointment and qualification of his suc- cessor. Itis stated at the White House that no immediate appointment will be made to the office, and that Mr. Manning will continue to act as Sec- retary for several weeks yet, Secretary Manning left Washington at 4:15 o'clock yesterday after- noon for Albany via New York. He was accompa- nied by Mrs. Manning, Miss Manning, and Mr. Robert L. Fryer. He expected to return to Wash- ington about Friday or Saturday. WILL THE SECRETARY RETURN TO WASHINGTON ? An Albany dispatch to the New York Herald says: “I learn from a confidential source that Mr. Manning will not return to Washington and that in fact he will cease to be Secretary of the ‘Treasury when he leaves the capital. Mr. Man- Ring yell Femaln here until his preparations are completed for a sea voyage, Which: friends be- Ueve will complete his restaration to health and AL Hee it is 80 far not settled in what direction he will take a voyage, but it is sald that a West India trip has been talked of.” AN INEXPLICABLE MUDDLE. Beyond the fact that Secretary Manning has re- signed and gone to Albany the entire series of matters connected therewith is in an inexplicable muddle. When Secretary Mi went away Yesterday 1t was announced that he expected to return On Friday or Saturday. The natural conclusion was that he would resume his duties as Secretary of the Treasury and ally attend ‘to important matters apt to arise at the close of a ‘session of Hs jon Was ac- counted for on the ground thathe would thus give lent an opportunity to nominate his suc- Sears eo, could be “conmrmed by | the nate before adjournment. ir. Manning Would continue’ to act as Secretary nevertheless “until matters should be in # condition to warrant his leaving thy cablnet, as itis held he would be legally entitled to act untit his successor should qualify, In this way it was thought the secretary could retire gracefully with- out being open to a change of leaving the President in the lurch, "His successor could be instructed in advance of qualinication if necessary, and Mr. Man- ing could “aba suitable thine become president of violated. Uhe new bank, and no provision of law A NEW PHASE OF THE MATTER. ‘To-day, however, there ts a different phase on the matter. ‘The announcement comes from a source near Mr. Manning, that he did not resign to accept the presidency of the Western National Dank, a8 that matter ts still held in abey- ance’ and doubt, and that he did not Tesign on account of is health, With this information a natural conclusion 1s that a breach of official relations with the President, perhaps, was the immediate cause of his retire~ Ment. ‘The much disputed question of whether the President did or did not give directions to the ‘Treasury department with regard to the issue of one and two dollar notes and the purchase of sver again comes to the front and the answer to the question by some persons is a Satisfactory reason to them for the sudden resig nation. Bets are even to-day on whether Mr. Mabe ning will or Will not resume his duties as Secre- tary of the Treasury. AT THE WHITE HOUSE no definite information can be obiained. Col. La- mont Was under the iinpression that Mr. Manning would return in a few days and resume hisduties, ‘The President had sent no communication to the Secretary of the Treasury on the financial ques- ton a few days ago, he Said, and he did not be- eve he had done s0 since then. ‘The Treasury department officials are as em- phate. a8 ever in. denying that such action hag n taken by the President. ‘The Prestdent, 1t is thought, may have assured Mr. Carlisle that the law ‘should be obeyed by the ‘Treasury depart ment, and the matter dropped when ic was ascertained that no law _ has Deen violated. When Assistant Secretary Fair- child was Acting Secretary of the Treastry last year the ‘same charge of illegal action by the ‘Treasury department was made by certain Sena- tors. “Mr. Fairchild then convinced the members of the Senate appropriation committee that there was no violation of the law, and it 1s held tt would be easy to so convince members of the House. COL. LamoxT sar to-day that the Secretary's resignation has not yet been accepted, and that the correspondence in the matter will not be made public at present. When itis published, he said, many stories that have arisen will be Sent to the wall. ‘The greater the attempt to réconcllethe conflict- ing rumors aflout, the greater are the difficulties encountered. LATER, : Mr. Manning's letter of resignation and the Pre- sident’s reply will be made public to-night. ‘There 1s no reason to doubt that both are of the Most friendly and satistastory nature. It 1s understood that the secretary's principal reason for resigning 1s continued {!I-health and an ina- bility w lobger perform the arduous duties of Secretary of the Treasury. His resignation at this Ume was for the purpose of permitting the nomi- nation of his successor. {WIS SUCCESSOR TO BR NOMINATED BEFORE CONGRESS ADJOUENS.

Quite a number of merchants doing usiness in the vicinity of 11th and Bstreets north- West have frequently made complaints, and are willing to come forward and testify to the unruly and disorderly conduct of these boys. It 1s not true that these boys attend school and in the afternoon “sell papers to get books and clothes.” So far as the punishment of these boys 1s con- cerned, the officers inaking the arrests have noth- ing todo, It is their duty to bring offenders to Justice, be they old or young, when complaint 18 lade by respousible citizens of the District, 8.
