WORKING HARD ON HIS MESSAGE

Not Be Completed Until Early in
November.
November.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. 26.--Pre5i-
dent Roosevelt will complete his sum-
mer sojourn at Sycamore Hill and re-
turn to Washington next Saturday.
The president, Mrs. Roosevelt and
members Of their family, Secretary
and Mrs. Loeb and the members Of
the executive force will leave here
about II o'clock Saturday morning on
special Long Island railroad train.
They will go by boat from Long Is
land City to Jersey City and thence
via the Pennsylvania railroad to Wash
ington, reaching the capital shortly
after o'clock.
The president is devoting consider
able time each day to work on his an
nual message to congress. For some
time he has been assembling data for
the message, and since the adjourn
ment Of the peace conference he has
been writing the data into definite
form. The message will not be COM
pleted until some time early in No
vember, because each member Of the
cabinet will have to supply material
for discussion Of the work of his de-
partment. This information will be
contained In the annual reports of the
cabinet officers, which have not been
completed.
Three topics, highly important at
this time to the American people, will
be discussed by the president in his
message They are the federal regu-
lation and supervision of life insur-
ance, the relations between this coun-
try and Venezuela, and Americas in
terest in the fiscal affairs of the gov
ernment of Santo Domingo.
{, Other important subjects naturally
will be considered, among them the
scandals disclosed in the departments
Of agriculture and the interior; the
work Of the department of justice in
the beef trust cases; the regulation
of railroad freight rates; the progress
made in the construction of the Pana-
ma canal and the conclusion OF peace
between Russia and Japan.
Much of the material for the dis
cussion Of these subjects President
Roosevelt now has in mind, and the
last days of his stay at Sycamore Hill
are being devoted to the preparation
of that part Of his message which will
deal with them. -
Few visitors have been received
since the adjournment of the peace
conference, the president desiring to
be as free as possible from Interrupt
tion while working on his message.
His last week here is practically de-
void Of engagements. The considera-
tion of all matters except those of i'm
mediate Importance is being postpon-
ed until the president shall have
reached Washington.

blood surged through his brain so
strongly that it threatened to deprive
him of consciousness. Insensibility
was coming on, and insensibility meant
death.
Harrigan's toes were almost on the
top of the bale over which he had
crept. He had only 10 raise himself 4
little more tnan two feet to have his
Dootsoles touch the ceiling behind the
beam he had crawled under. BY press
ing the backs of his heels hard against
this beam he could get sufficient lever
age to help himself out. The distance
was trifiing, but there seemed abSo-

himself with.

stance saved his life.
The corners gave him something to
grip. Numbed and swollen though his
fingers were. he found that by press
ing them hard against his palms he
could gather in very respectable
handful of the baggiHg. This gave him
purchase enough to lift his weight.
Raising his hands very gradually
and hardly daring to breathe, inch by
inch he worked himself up and back
in agony. clutching the coarse edges
with desperate caution. To slip back
now would be fatal. Little by little he
pushed his toes back over the bale be-
