MCKINLEY Is VERY BUSY.
HAS NO TIME TO DEVOTE TO
CANDIDATES FOR OFFICE.
At Present Engaged Upon Matters
That He Must Bring to the At
tention Of Congress.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26. 1t has
come to be understood apparently that
the President is too busily engaged
with the matters that he must bring
to the attention of Congress to devote
time to consideration of candidates for
public office, so this morning there was
only one Congressional caller.
The Cabinet meeting called together
all the members of the Presidential
family and lasted fully half an hour
longer than usual. Notwithstanding
this it was said the proceedings We're OF
a routine nature and that Cuban affairs
We're not touched upon beyond con-
gratulatory reference to the fact, re-
ported to the State Department, that
the last of the Americans who have
been held prisoners in Cuba has been
released in the person OF Luis Somelie.
The President has not finally COM
pleted his message to Congress. The
matter is, however, in such shape that
it can be put in form for the printer at
a days notice, but this notice has not
yet been given ,and the Cabinet con-
sumed most of the time of to-day's ses-
sion going over once more certain por-
tions of the document.
One Of these portions was the very
first chapter Of the message, treating
Of the foreign relations of our Govern
ment. 1t is the intention of the Presi
dent to devote much attention in his
message to the subject of trade rela-
tions and reciprocity so that there was
some talk to-day respecting the posi-
tions assumed by the great European
reproducing countries, that the
laying of a countervailing duty ON su
gar to offset the home-paid bounty
amounts to unjust discrimination
1t is certain that the arrangement of
the reciprocal agreements under the
tariff law, which Congress directed
should be prepared as speedily as may
be, is retarded by considerations grow
ing out Of the bounty questions.

A LITTLE SUFFERER
Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
ScrofuIous Humors - How a Cure

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrofuous Humors - How Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrcfula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out OF his
blood and it has never since returned"

his admirable method and artistic work
in that tragic character is unnecessary,

KANSAS RAILROADS.
Statement Being Prepared to show They
Are Being Operated at Loss.

Statement Being Prepared to show They
Are BENZ Operated at Loss.
TorEk,, Kan, Jan. s. A atement
is being prepared BY some OF the repre-
sentatives Of the leading railroads in
the state, VIII CHI is to be submitted to
members of the legislature who may
feel inclined to pass maximum freight
rate bill. This document in part says:
Although the mileage In Kansas is
greater than that in Iowa yet the earn
ings in Iowa for the six years given aver
age u per cent h CHER than the earnings in
Kansas for the same time, while the taxes
paid b. the kansa roads during the same six
years average Is1 rer cent higher than the
taxes paid by the Iowa roads In those years.
In Iowa there are ia people to each mile Of
road In Kansas only 1871. In the face OF these
1acts, no one can reasonably OF even with any
SHOW OF fairness or justice claim that hansas
rates hould be any where ne, as low as Iowa
rates.
The report OF the Kansas board OF railroad
commissioners for 1905 shows, for 70 roads re-
porting, the sum of sl1,l3,s.i as earnings from
operation in Kansas. Five roads did not re-
port earnings for the state but by taking the
earnings for operation BY the entire lines the
percentage which the mileage within the
state bears to the entire mileage there
results an amount OF fl0,Ol.i3S,
which. added to the amount re-
porte for The state. gives the total
OF s.,'l.9D as approx matey the earnings
from operation In Kansas This amount would
be over rather than under the actual earnings
Pursuing the same method as to OF Grating ex-
penscs the amount OF Ssl ,O7s.e7s Is obtained Us
the operating expenses Of roads In Kansas.
The difference, 1911 ,ds2, less 81. 1905 no taxes
paid in Kansas gives 'i,l9l9l3 as the net re-
suit from operation in the state
The debt OF the Kansas roads Is given in the
report ut S!S',1iI,;4 The net results from
operation are therefore less than " per cent
upon the Indebtedness, and there is deficit Of
large proportions in respect OF interest pay
ments upon the indebtedness, 1t safe to say
that unless conditions affecting the
railroads in Kansas change materially
for the better it will be many
years before the stockholders receive
any dividends upon their investments, and be-
fore the holders Of the Indebtedness OF the
roads Will receive even u fair interest upon
their investments No railroad company
whose business is transacted wholly within the
state earns even It's operating expenses, much
less interest on bonds and dividends on stock.

ticians will venture an opinion, There

they work night and day trying to as.
certain the preferences of the fusion
members Of the legislature. The
candidates have headquarters"
and the members make the
rounds daily, but condolences
are not exchanged. There seems to be
a disposition on the part of the men,

rial caucus will be held behind closed
doors in order to prevent individual
action and expression from reaching
