He Wants to be Senator When He Ceases to be President. Washimton. April 16.-Mr. Roose velt made known to some of those with whom he talked recently his am bition is to represent the state of New York in the United States sen ate after he leaves the White House in 1909. There is not the slightest doubt-in the minds of the president's closest friends that he intends to ad here strictly to his announcement on election night in November, 1904, that in no circumstances would he serve another term in his present office. It is assumed from what Mr. Roosevelt has said that he much prefers remain ing in public life to becoming presi dent of Harvard university. Both the present senators from New York are more than 70 years old, and it is generally understood that neither will stand for re-election. Mr. Platt will cease to be senator on the same day that Mr. Roosevelt will cease to be president, March 4, 1909; while Mr. Depew 's term will expire on March 4, 1911. If he were elected to succeed Mr. Platt Mr. Roosevelt would be sworn in as senator, if he so desired, on the day of his retire ment from the presidency. Upon his accession to the presi dency, in 1901, Mr. Roosevelt was the youngest man who had ever occupied that office. If he lives until the ex piration of his present, term he will be only 50 years old. He will then be nearly 35 years younger than the Nestor of the senate, Mr. Pettus, of Alabama. John Quincy Adams served eight terms in the house of representatives i after he had ceased to be president in 1829. MUST HAVE CONTRACT. Mr. Childs on Mail Trains in The Afternoon-Matter is in The Air. The donnection between President Childs, of the C., N. and L. road and the postoffice department in the mat-i ter of mail service on the afternoon train out of Columbia to Laurens has not been short-circuited as might be imagined from the delay in getting the service started. Fact is the con netion has not yet been established, although as far back as the first of March Postmaster Ensor made a con tract for a man to carry this mail be tween the postoffice and the old union station on Gervais street, from which point this train starts out. When he learned that the service had been authorized Dr. Ensor took the matter of a contract up with the second assistant postmaster with t.he above result, and he suggested. that Mr. Childs could get satisfactory re sults in the same way. "I can't understand why the ser vice is not started,'' said Dr. Ensor. "It was authorized tivo months ago, according to the newspapers, and ac cording to information that comes to me from other sources. People are running to me about the matter every day. Columbia business men want to know when the service is going to start." "It's all very well,'' said Mr. Childs to a Record man today, "to talk about the business interests of Columbia needing such service, but the C., N. and L. road does not be long to the city of Columbia and can-' not be run in its interest without com pensation. I have absolutely no con tract with the gover,nment to carry that mail, and I am not going to start car rying it until I do have a favorable contract. The only communication I have had on the subject was from Superintendent Terrell, of the rail way mail service, who wrote from Atlanta about two months ago to ask whether I could put a mail car on that train. I answered that I could. This has been the extent of the correspond ene I have had on the subject. "No, I am not going to write to the second assistant postmaster general nor to anyone else. My experience has been that it is best to let govern ment officials come to you when they want anything.'' A committee from the chamber of commerce was to meet and confer with Superintendent Williams today about the proposed change on the C and G. line, but he is in Washington, and the. conference had be to tempora rily postponed. Washington, April 16.-Representa tive Lever called on Superintendent White, of the railway mail service, today to ascertain the cause of the delay in putting on the mail service on the C., N. and L. road on the train leaving Laurens for Columbia. The records of the department show that the service was ordered on March 1st, and that the A. C. L. was callaed upon by the department to furnish a mail car for the purpose. It is found that the- cuem-o the delay is due to the fact that the railway company a vet has not found it convenient to supply this car. But as soon as it can be done the service will go into Operation. The department promises to again call on the railroad company to furnish this car. This is all that can be done at this end of the line. Mr. Lever is very much annoyed at what seems to be unreasonable delay in getting a service on which would be of so much benefit to so many people. He also took up with Superintend ent White again the matter of having service put on the evening train out of Columbia for Augusta. This is the matter which Mr. Lever and Senator Tillman took up with the department that district in charge, and that the matter had been referred to Super intendent Terrell, of Atlanta, who has that district in charge, and that the matter would be taken up for final consideration when the report from Mr. Ter-, :cached the department. Mr. Lever quite anxious to have a mail clerk put on this train. There would be no trouble in getting a lock pouch put on this train for each of the towns along the road which would request it. This plan does not ap pear very strongly to Mr. Lever, and he feels the interest of the service de mands a clerk, and he is going to make his fight for this.
