He COULD NOT EAT
President of Gas Company Given
Object Lesson.
No Breakfast for Him Because
There Was No Gas.

Eugene Mackey, president of the
Kansas Natural Gas Co., came to To-
peka this morning from Kansas City
without his breakfast because there
was not enough gas under the ranges
at the Hotel Baltimore to boil and egg
and cook some bread and milk toast.
Thus was Stubs assertion of yester-
| day verified when he told the mana
ger of the Kansas Natural that there
was not enough gas pressure in To-
peka to boil the said egg. Mr.. Macl1ey
came to Topeka today to assure Gov
ernor Stubs that the company had
not Disseminated against Kansas in
the matter of gas pressure as had been
reported. The governor yesterday
went after the gas officials red hot to
find out about the alleged discrimina-
ton -ainSt Kansas cities in the use Of
gas.
when we waited and waited for our
breakfast at the Baltimore this morn
ing said President Maclkey, and train
time drew near, we became impatient
and started in to vent our wrath on the
waiter for the non-appearance of our
eggs and milk toast. But the waiter
put out of business when he said:
Sorry, gents, but there amt enough
gas in the hotel mains to cook break
fast with
I'VE said no more after that but fold
ed our tents and stole away. Manager
John Jones, of Chanute. was with me.
l would not have had that waiter know
IHdC we were the gas men Ilat OWenQ
and furnished the gas that did not come
to the hotel that Jack built for any
thing
It would seem from the experience
of Mr.. Mackey in Kansas City this
morning that the falling gass pressure
caught him in its meshes, as well as
his patrons. When a man whose COM
pany owns a billion feet of gas flow
per day has to do without breakfast be
cause of Lick of gas to cook with he
is in position to join the ranks of the
army that is tcussing'' the gas and the
gas company these zero days
Mr.. Maclkey was very sorry about the
low pressure but could promise no relief
until warmer weather. His company is,
he says, forcing all the gas into the mains
that the mains will stand and putting on
all the pressure it can raise. That is all
it can do. The consumption is greater
than the supply in zero weather He de-
clared vehemently to the governor that
his company had not Disseminated by
single ounce more to Missouri towns than
Kansas towns.

FOUR Die OF COLD

Are Numerous.

ROUTED OUT

Chicago, Jan. Zero weather con-
tinued today to hold Chicago in its
grasp. And no relief. at present, is
promised. The word given out from
the government weather office was
that the mercury which stood at de-
grees below zero at 6 a. m, might drop
to Is below before nightfall. Suffer-
ing was intense. Four deaths were
attributed directly to the weather.
Scores of families were routed from
their homes by fires. Yesterday fire
men responded to 167 alarms and the
1ty during last night According to the
estimate of Charles H Wacker head
of the United Charities, there are in
Chicago 10000 unemployed men.
OF this number about 500 spent last
night in the municipal lodging house.
Two hundred more found shelter at
the Desplaines street police station,
while the 43 other police stations
housed many men who said they had
no other place to sleep.
The president of the county board
issued orders to the county agent to
double today usual allowances of fuel
and food.

Another decided drop in tempera-
ture marked the sixth day of the cold

From many cities came reports of

the unusual mark of 3S degrees below,

States. Duluth, however, was press

NOT SAVING WOOD
But Col. Roosevelt Is ChOpping
1t at Sycamore Hill.
Squa of Correspondents Has
Camped at Oyster Bay.

Oyster Bay, Jan. 6.-Roosevelt and half
a dozen other men chopped down trees
today in the woods surrounding the ex-
presidents home at Sycamore, Hill.
When Col. Roosevelt was not WELD
ing an ak he was giving directions.
The biting cold apparently made no i'm
preston on him
To all inquiries the colonel said he
would say nothing. After more than
year of obscurity Oyster Bay is again
achieving prominence. When his un-
successful tour through New York
state in 1910 in behalf of Henry L. Slim
son, Republican candidate for governor
ended, Col Roosevelt went into retire
ment. Until a few weeks ago he was
permitted to remain undisturbed at his
home but as a result of recent poIiti-
cal development Sycamore Hill once
more is in stage of siege. Despite
Col RooseVelt's refusal to talk politics
a squad of correspondents has camped
in the village.

Conductor Thomas of No. II says
the injured engineer did not whistle
for the station. This gives color to the
theory that he did not see the town.

TRAIN CRASH
Engineer Killed and 1S Injured
in Santa Fe Wreck.
Brother of TOpekan Among In
jured Near Dodge City.
BLINDED BY STORM.
Engineer of No. 12 Fails to See
Station Light.
Injured Suffer From Intense
Cold Before Being Rescued.

! Wright, Kan, Jan. 6.-Unable to see
the station lights in the binding storm
which swept over this section of Kan
sas Friday night Engineer Deming of
Santa F'e train No. II, ran past the

mistake and began backing the train to
the station. Before he had reached the

rate of 20 miles an hour at the time Of
the accident.

scalded. Deming can not tell of the

fatally, it is believed, but they suffer-
ed severely from the cold before they
could be extricated and taken to Dodge

pital. The orders of the engineer were
to stop at Wright and allow the flag
man to precede the train.

crust on tho top. When they started
they looked like little red dots and
then they got bigger. about the size

continually worse and soon spread
over his face and legs. The child suf-
fered terrible itching and burning, 80
that he could not sleep nights. He
scratched them and they looked fear
full. He was cross when he had them.
We used several bottles Of liniment.
