Topeka, Kan, Special.
 The corn and wheat crops of Kansas in values, have broken all records. or ficial figures from Secretary Coburn show the total wheat yield to be over 77. 900 900 bushels, and of corn to be nearly 191, 100000 bushels. The total value of this years wheat. corn and live stock is $409. 9.000,000, the nearest approach to this being in 1903 when the amount aggregated $3S7. 7.500,000. Sug- gestive of the present situation, 1t may be said that this years wheat Is worth more than that of any other years crop, with one exception. The same IS true of corn and the State is richer in live stock than ever before.
 The years aggregate value Of farm products and live stock is sufficient If equally divided among the States in habitants, to give each, whether adult or Infant.

 That the Kansas wheat farmer has been particularly prosperous In recent years can we'll be concluded from the fact that in the past five years ending with 1905 Kansas raised two wheat crops of over 100000 bushels each, one of over 77,000,00O bushels. one of over s5. .O00, 900 bushels and one of about 55. 900, 900 bushels. aggregating 1,344,- 039 bushels in the five years. worth S237457,229, or an average annual out put of 76.268, ,S0S bushels, worth an av- craze of SAT, ,491 666.

IS DENIED BY OBARRIO
PANAMA MAN ANSWERS STATE
 MENTS OF CULBERSON.
Tells Where the s1O.OOO,00O Went, and Declares No Public Mnn of this Country Was Implicated
 in Revolution.

Washington, Dec. 17.-Nicanor A De Obarrio, formerly Minister of Ma rine of the Republic of Panama. in a statement issued today, replied to re- marks made in the Senate by Mir. Gull ber5on of Texas. who declared that the $10,o00.o00 paid by the United States to Panama, was no more nor less than a payment to the intriguants and con- spirators there who organized in this city under the very shadow of the Capi- tol.'
 Mir. Obarrio, after explaining that he was one of the eight persons who plan ned the seperation of Panama from Columbia, says:
 treaty. approved by the United States, and the rejection of which by Colum- bia was the main cause of the separa- ton of Panama, the United States agreed to pay to the Republic of Co., lombia $1O,000,000 for certain privi- leges. and. according to the Hay Bunau-varilla treaty, approved by the Republic of Panama and by the United States Senate, the same was paid for securing even greater privileges. At the time it was paid, the Republic of Panama was perfectly constituted nation recognized by all but two of the countries of the globe.
 The $f0,000,00 have been disposed of in this manner: $6.000,000 invested in mortgages in New York real estate at an average of per cent per annum s1, ,000 for the establishment of a national bank; s500.oOo to Panama bankers on call, and $500.o00 employed in converting our silver coin to the new coinage of the Republic of Pan- anna. and for depositing a sum suffi- cient to guarantee the parity of our silver with United States gold at the rate of two silver dollars for old gold dollar. The rest has been employed in building school houses, roads. bridges and the thousand and one things that for years have been needed in our country
 "As to the statement that the sepa- ration of Panama was accomplished under the shadows of the Capitol most emphatically deny. in my name, and in that of my colleagues, that any public man of this or any other coun- try had anything to do with the revo- lution, so successfully accomplished by us with the valuable aid of 99.50 per cent of the inhabitants of Panama"

Drink Bill of Manhattan.

Pearson's for January.
 The borough of Manhattan annually consumes about 900 barrels of whis- key, which cost the consumers $2,500.- 900. To this item must be added 30.000 barrels of other spirits, sold for $50o,- which $5,5oo.0 900 is paid; 4.000,0o0 gal Ions of other wines and brandies. cost ing $27.o00.000, and last, but not least important, 5.O00,000 barrels of beer, selling for $100,000,000.
 This makes a total of $135, ,50O,000-a sum sufficient to create and maintain forever a great university like Yale or Harvard.
 It is a fact rather interesting to con slider that if all of this beer and liquor were put into a tank and were allowed to run through an ordinary water-ta? at the rate of a gallon a minute the re- ceptacle would require ninety years and thirty-six days to empty itself.
