Immediately after the supposed kid

story that a large posse gave chase
to the kidnapers and pushed them so
closely that in order to make their
escape they dropped the young lady
on the road and made their way as
best they could to their mountain

MAY BIZ SENATOR
PRESIDENT HAS DECLARED THIS
HIS LATEST AMBITION.
viii Aspire To Place To BE Vacated
by senator Platt--Iietircs In
Time.

New York. April IS President
Roosevelt has made known to his
close friends that he is ambitious TO
represent New York state ip the SEN
ate at the close of his present term.
The information is being confiden-
TALLY impaired to the Republican
leaders in this state.
Mr. Roosevelt wishes it understood
that his determination to not accept
a second term in the White House re-
mains as before. but he believes that
his public life is by no means at an
end. and that he can be of great SER
vice in the senate. Neither Mr.. Plat
nor Mr.. Depew will be a candidate
again for the senate, according to a
statement recently made by Platt,
who regretfully admitted to a friend
that Eve could not be reelected If
we wanted 10 be, fear"
Both men are more than 20. and
Platt's term will expire on the very
day that Mr.. Roosevelt ceases to be
president. on March 4. 1909. Depew's
term runs two years longer. II he
were elected to succeed Plat, Mr..
Roosevelt could be sworn in as sena-
tor the same day that his successor
as president took the oath OF Office.
No expression has yet been made
by Republican leaders here as to the
manner in which the presidents am
bition will be received, but II Is
thought It will have an effect on the
immediate future in New York poll
ties. A Higgins-Odell truce on Roose-
welt platform may not be impossible.

MISDESCRIBE SHIPMENTS.
Packers Have for Years in That Way
Cheated Railroads.

Chicago, April 1S.-The Tribune
says: Railroad officials openly
charge that the big packing corpora
tions for years have been cheating
the railroads by misstating the char
acter of the goods they were ship
ping and by shipping heavier pack
ages than the bills of lading called
for.
They assert that other big ship
pers in the East also are doing things
that have helped to diminish the rev.
enues which the railroads ought to
have received.
1t has been estimated by the rail-
roads that the packers alone beat the
Eastern roads out of $3.50 900 year.
What they owe ali the railroads on.
of Chicago is problematical, but II
is estimated at Sc, 900 900. The rail-
way men say that they have known
all these things for years, and in a
way have demonstrated with the pack
ers and other companies which were
cheating. but within the last few
weeks they have made a determined
effort to bring about great reform
and they intimate strongly that un-
less the shippers make restitution
there will be grand expose before
the interstate commerce commission.
