ESTIMATES Arr
AGAIN SLASHED|
Cabinet Officers Submit Re-
duced Figures.
TAFT SAYS KEEP AT IT

President Pleased With Cut Of Four
teen Millions, but He Insists That
Further Reductions Be Made-Prac-
tically Certain That Ex-Governor
Hughes Will Be Named Chief JUS
tice of the Supreme Court.
Washington; Dec. Ia cut Of $14,-
100000 in the estimates of the run
ming expenses of the government dur
ing the next fiscal year was reported
to President Taft as result of his
ultimatum to the various heads of de-
partments at the cabinet conference
Tuesday. .-....~~ ~, !. s.. ~.
The president was greatly gratiied
with the showing announced, but de-
clared there must be still deeper cuts.
So the cabinet meeting was postponed
until Friday to allow the cabinet Off
GERS to make another revision of their
figures. The delay in the preparation
of the presidents message is said to
be due to the necessity of waiting for
the estimates in their final form. -
BY Friday, however, it is expected,
the message will be ready in it's en-
tirety for consideration by the cab
met. Just as soon as the message is
out of the way the president will de-
vote the next three or four days to
seeing senators and representatives
regarding the legislative programme.
Hughes for Chief Justice.
He will not take up the appoint
ments to the supreme court and the
court of commerce until the latter
part of next week. The nomination of
Justice Charles E. Hughes as chief
justice seems to be the only appoint
ment decided upon up to this time.
President Taft was at work on his
message until o'clock in the morn
ing. He remained at work in his
study all day. The only visitor he
saw there was President James. Nc
Crea of the Pennsylvania railroad.
Mr.. McCrea declared the call was
purely personal. "~~'
Representative Serene E. Payne of
New York, Republican floor leader in
the house, called at the executive
Offices, but did not see the president.
AS to what the legislative programme
was likely to be Mr.. Payne declared
that any mans guess would be as
good as his own.
Former Vice President Fairbanks is
to be guest at the White House next
week. The visit is attracting a great
deal of attention politically.

Bonnkclabber.

New drinks have sometimes glOri-
GUS and brief popularity. Lord STRAIT
ford, writing to Lord Cottington in
1885, extols "bonnyclabber." which he
says lis the bravest. freshest drink
you ever tasted. Your Spanish don

his nose and shake his beard an hour

1t to be the drink of the gods all the

No one, however. seems to know
the exact composition Of the seductive
''bonnyclabber," although from an al
fusion to it by Ben Jonson it would
seem to have been mixture Of beer
and buttermilk. -London Chronicle.
