THE PRESIDENT HAS ALREADY DRAINED CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY OF BOOKS PERTAINING TO HUNTING IN EUROPE. Washington, Dec. 14. "Specky. when I get off the job I am going over and ee your lioss." Utilizing tho nickname of affectionate comradeship and without being guilty of lese majesty in reverting to irile Americanism in his talk, the president m conveyed to Speck von Sternberg, the German ambassador, his intention of visiting Germany after he retired from the presidency, and seeing Emperor William. While tho president has considered many things to engage his strenuous activity when he retires from the White house, it is possible to state at the outset what he will not do, and It may be stated with certainty that he will not tbo a candidate for election to the Senate to succeed Senator Thomas Collier Piatt. He has no desire to asFume legislative responsibilities so foon after he la relieved of the obligation of the presidency. The matters Jie most seriously considers taken in Order of preference are: 1. To write a history of his administration. 2. A big game hunt that would take him to India, Africa and possibly Alaska. 3. A visit to England and all tho continental capitals, with the possibility of a trip around the world, stopping: In the Philippines. When the bear hunters gathered around the board In the White House the other night tales of mighty deeds In the hunting field were related, and, as usual, the President was the foremost In talking of "big kills." Those who heard him were astounded at his comprehensive knowledge and mastery of minute details of big same hunting in Africa and India. It was learned today that the president has recently drained tho congressional library of all books dealing with big game hunting in Alaska. Africa and India, as well as other parts of the World.
