713 - L Dec. 1; ed:2/1 - Friends of McClellan will be glad to learn that
after his military and political career have both been concluded in disgra :e-
ful failure, he has found a positicn as engineer-in-chief of the Morris and
Essex railroad. His salary is $25,000 a year - the same salary he would
have received had he been elected president of the United States.
"Financially, therefore, lie is 'even' - and he has the satisfaction
of knowing that he will give infinitely better satisfaction to his
employers in his present position than he would have done in the one to
which he aspired." - - (3)
