HE LANDS ON WHITNEY.
Roosevelt Writes a Letter That Ought
to Finish the Bay State Man.

Boston, Nov. 21.-Henry NJ. Whitney,
Democratic candidate for lieutenant
governor at the last election has made
public correspondence which had been
passed between President Roosevelt and
himself concerning the statements made
by the president during an interview last
winter which was granted to a commit
tee from Massachusetts, on reciprocal
trade relations.
The president informed a mass COM
mittee that called on him last week in
favor of free hides that Mr.. Whitney
had deliberately misrepresented wP bat
had occurred at last winters confereT A-e.
With this experience in mind, the presi-
dent declined to enter upon a discussion
of free hides with the free hides commit
tee, the chairman of which was Cover
nor William L. Douglas. The statement
of Mr. Whitney during the recent can
vass in Massachusetts thatlthe president
told him he favored reciprocity with
Canada was that to which the president
took. exception. After the president had
made public his address to the hides
committee. charging Mr. Whitney with
nisrepresenta ton. Mr. Whitney main
tanned that the president had certainly
spoken in favor Of reciprocity with Can
ada on broad lines during their inter-
view.
In the correspondence which is given
publicity Mr. Whitney wrote to Presi-
dent Roosevelt that the president had
done him a great injustice in charging
him with willful Misrepresentation, re-
ouested an interview with the president
and expressed his regret that Teeiproc-
ity did not have the presidents indorse-

declares that Mr.. Whitney's letter fur

tional deliberate misstatements and
closes by refusing to grant the requested
interview. The letter from the president
to M Whitny is as follows:
November IS, 1905. Sir: have your
letter of the 18th inst. In view of my
previous experience with you I am
obliged to state, with regret, that it is
out of the question for me to grant you
another interview. In this letter of No
vember II, in which you make this re-
quest, you furnish additional evidence
of the wisdom Of my refusing to COM
municate further with you; my refusal
being based upon your evident inability
to understand, or determination to mis-
represent what I say. In this letter you
state that you regret more than any
thing else in connection vb-h this mat
ter that the righteous cause of reciproc-
ity with neighbOring countries of so
much value to our people and to the
whole of the human race is not to have
the Endorsement of your (my) great
name and the benefit of your (my)
potent aid
Nothing that have said at any time
has given you the slightest warrant for
making this assertion; and when, IN
the very letter asking for an interview
and denying that you ever willfully mis-
represented my previous remarks, you
incorporate another deliberate misstate-
ment, you can hardly wonder that 1
decline to see you; nor would there IN
any event be the slightest point IN such
an interview In your speeches you
pretended to quote from memory certain
statements made in the course of long
conversation occurring nearly year
previous You quoted portions Of what
/ said-even as to these portions. your
language was Inaccurate ana all the
context was suppressed. AS a result
you as completely misrepresented me
as in the sentence of your present letter
which I quote above. 1t matters little
whether this was due to deliberate pur-
pose of deception. or to a lack IN botn
vol1r conpanfons and yourself. Of a
nice sense of propriety and Of the power
of exact thinking and Of correct appre-
hension and repetition Of what was said.
In either event I feel that It would serve
no useful purpose again TO see you OF
further to correspond with you.
You are at liberty to make this cor
respondence public. If you choose. Yours
truly. THEODORE ROOSEVELT.'

quent and prolonged conference of the
council of ministers at the Yildiz pal
ace are believed to indicate prepara-
tions to yield in principle to the de-
mand of the powers for the acceptance
of the financial reforms decided upon
for Macedonia. Probably, however,
the Turkish government will make
further attempts to secure modifica-
tions of the plans before definitely ac-
cepting the full programme. The ar
rival of the international fleet at
Piraeus is likely to hasten the Turkish
discussion. The Russian fleet has re-

five or six thousand additional freight
cars but Of course these will not be
available until next year.
There has been report current for
some few days to the effect that the
Rock Island was so short of eaN.le and
grain cars that Mr.. Nudge and the other
officials of the road were trying to rent
some seven hundred cars from roads en-
tering Chicago that might be able to
spare them.
When Mr.. Nudge was fgked about
this report he smiled and said: Il guess
there is nothing in that report. Every
road in the country is as short Of cars
as we are so it would be useless to try
and borrow or rent cars from any of
them"
Mr.. Nudge, accompanied by John
3. Berry, the new chief engineer of the
Rock Island, and Frank T. Dolan,
general superintendent of the south
west district of the road arrived IN

WILL TRY PATENT sTokER.
Central Will Give Engineer strouse's
Device Thorough Test.

The patent stoker for firing locomo-
tives, designed and patented by Will
Strouse, Central engineer of Oskaioo-
ga, is to be given a thorough and ex-
haustive trial by the mechanical de-
partment of the road. Three OF the
stokers are soon to be placed on one
engine OF the ninety eighty and
sixty classes. Should the tests
prove successful the stoker will prob
ably be generally adopted for the COM
panys engines. 1t Is claimed for the
stoker that it will maintain more
even and Eotter fire than is possible by
firing by hand. The coal is placed on
the stoker by the fireman, and is car
ried automatically into the fire box
distributed over the fire as the fireman
may wish. An automatic device opens
and closes the firebox'door. Some time
ago one of the stokers was given trial
on one of the eighty class engines,
but proved unsuccessful. but since
then, 1t is claimed improvements nave
been made which have overcome the
difficulties.

grow worse, steadily, in spite of doc
tors prescriptions, frequent changes
of residence and everything I could do.
During all this time my appetite con-
tinued good, only the more I ate the
