The special grand jury which has been called to investigate the conditions responsible for the coal famine continued today to hear evidence which the Attorney-General and the State's Attorney have secured against the coal operators and big dealers. "Twenty five coal men, some of them heads of wholesale firms, and others chiefs In the councils of corporations operating mines, presented themselves at the Criminal Court Building in answer to summonses to tell what they may know of the "ring" which the Illinois Manufacturers' Asso ciations charges is responsible for fuel conditions. It is the intention of the grand Jury that none but coal men shall be ex amined, and under Mr. Dlnen's direction they are being asked to explain Just what are the alms and objects of the Illinois Coal Operators' Association, and why coal cars stored on railroad tracks just out side the city limits are not being ordered Into the city and marketed. It is said that the Investigators have discovered trains of coal cars sidetracked and placarded with Instructions to freight crews to hold the consignments indefinite ly, and that hundreds of tons of coal have been taken from the cars and heaped up along the tracks. Attorney General Hamlin declared that the Inves tigation would not be confined to Chicago, but would reach out so as to take up the conditions throughout the state. One of the first acts of the grand jury was to ask that subpoenas be Issued for the appearance of Don R. Patterson ,and W. H. Rhodes, of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad. Subpernrcs are out for other railroad officials. S. B. Dalzcll. of the Spring Valley Coal Company, was the first witness called. He was followed by- E. E. Brent, secretary-treasurer of the Illinois Coal Operators' Association; Charles W. Gllmore, of the Crescent Coal & Mining Company, and George H. Holl, of the Building Managors Assoeiation. Evidence is said to have been secured tending to prove that the operations of the alleged conspiring dealers arc planned In secret, and that dally conferences were held until the present Investigation be gan. The manager of the building where the conferences are said to have been held Is said to be a prospective witness, who. it is believed, will give the jurors Information of great value in the Investi gation. The investigation today was directed at the workings of the Northern Illinois Soft Coal Dealers' Association, the Illinois Coal Operators' Association and the In diana Coal Operators' Association. A sUbpena duces tecum was Issued this afternoon by special grand jury for W. F. Bogle, president, and other officers of the Crescent Coal & Mining Company, de manding that they produce the contracts and agreement entered Into by the com pany with certain other mining companies which are named in the subpena. The City Council tonight took a hand in the solution of the coal .problem. An or dinance was passed making the forestall ing of fuel supplies a misdemeanor, pun ishable with a fine of $200 for each off ense. TRACING' SALES OF COAL.

OTrPffllnelV A , ,L rm, ,- uncomioruiDie anu unu . u , Count will seek to obtain a divorce Is re- . garded by no means Improbable. The disagreement between the couple I has long been evident, and It is believed , tnat pecuniary trouDics are unaer me ui- fair. As a widow, the ex-Crown Princess enjoyed an Income of 5125,000 and had a free residence at the imperial palace and the use of carriages and servants. It is reported that the couple married m the belief that Emperor Francis Joseph and King Leopold ' together would contribute handsomely to their maintenance. In this, however, they were disappointed. The Emperor gave the Countess J25.000 a year only, while King Leopold stopped her for mer allowance of 520.000 a year. The Countess, subsequently tried to meet all the expenses of maintaining her house hold with one-fifth of her former income, and found the task impossible. She used the influence of her daughter. Archduchess Elizabeth Marie, who is a favorite with the Austrian Emperor, to J.secure additional money and to obtain permission to reside in one of the impe rial palaces, where she was out of reach of her creditors. She was granted the use of the palace at Helzendorff, near Vienna, but this privilege expired upon the mar riage of her daughter to Prince von Wln dischgractz on January 3, 1902. The Countess de Lonyay Is supposed re cently to have borrowed money from Princess von WIndischgraetz, but the visit of the Countess to her daughter at Prague December 6, which lasted only one hour, has led to the belief that the Princess re fused her mother further supplies. It is thought that since the marriage of Arch duchess Elizabeth Marie, Prince von WIn dischgraetz has interfered to prevent his wife from continuing, to act as Interme- diary between her mother and her grand- iauier, me emperor, u mu ucu.f ic- pronounced t0 be the greatest archltec markably generous to the Countess. The i1 0,,i0,.,0f nf -,. i TCnrth- .present situation is believed to have re- suited from the Interference of Prince von WIndischgraetz. It Is difficult to ascertain the exact truth of the statement that the Count de Lonyay has actually left the Countess. One report, received late tonight, alleged to emanate from a hotel-keeper at Capo St. Martin, near Mentone, declares that the couple 'were still staying there at the Villa Kahn. There appears to be no doubt, however, that the Count Is seek- ing either a separation or a divorce. The Countess eeeras unable to conform herself to the life of a simple Countess after the years she had spent in travel- ing. Tho Count wanted to settle down quietiy in xjuuaptai. uu "-" upon residing In London and living In ex pensive style. In addition to this, the so cial distance separating the couple caused annoyance and humiliation to the count, who, upon several occasions when his wife was paying Imperial visits, was obliged to await her outside in tne cor ridor.

Vhat Russia and Austria Will De mand of Turkey. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 12. The Novoe Vremya publishes a list of reforms that lt is proposed to Institute In Macedonia, which are apparently a result of Foreign Minister Lamsdorff'a mission to Austria. The newspaper says that Russia and Aus tria have practically agreed to take cer tain proposals to Turkey, which include Turkish financial control of the collection of taxco In Macedonia and of the pay ment of troops and officials In European Vilayets. Control of the gendarmerie is to be had by the selection of officers from among the subjects of the neutral Euro pean states of Belgium, Holland and Switzerland. "Control of the general ad ministration of Macedonia is said to be desirable and should be entrusted to high personages unhampered by Turkish opin ion, and as far as possible Independent of the Ylldiz Kiosk. The Novoe Vremya, commenting on these proposed reforms, admits that they will deeply hurt Turkish pride, but says they are in the nature of a surgical ope ration, from which great benefit will be derived and that It Is therefore to be hoped that Turkey may be induced to consent to the operation without tho em ployment of pressure. TOO MUCH ORNAMENT. Main Defect in Management of Brit ish Railroads. LONDON, Jan. 12. The agitation In fa vor of the railway reform has received great impetus from a speech made by Mr. Hanbury, president of the Board of Agri culture and a member of the British Cabinet, at a conference of farmers at Leicester, In which he said It was a matter for regret that the British railway com panies were not composed more of men of business and less of ornamental directors so that the railways might be managed in a more business-like way. British railway dividends for the half year ended December 31 are expected to show up well in comparison with the pre vious distribution, but taking a wider view of the finances of the railways of this country, every year for the last decade has seen capital Increase and dividends decrease. The proportion of working ex- J penses tof total gross receipts baa system atlcally Increased in the same period, while on the otheV hand the proportion of net re ceipts to capital decreased. Passenger traffic Is steadily becoming less profitable, and the companies may have to face an enormous capital expenditure in the neat future,, as the reforma which must accom pany any reorganization of the goods traf fic will Involve a heavy outlay. HOPE FOB, PEACE IX IBELAXD. Government May Adopt Plan of Land Conference. NEW YORK, Jan. 12. The most no table event that has occurred In Ireland for several generations has been' tho agreement on the land questions by rep resentatives of landlords and tenants, ac cording to a dispatch to the Tribune from London. Extreme landowners who at the outset did their utmcst to make the Dub lin Mansion House conference futile now see that the representatives of the ten ants are more than willing to go half way in an endeavor to bring about perma nent peace In agrarian Ireland. Chief Secretary Wyndham Is anxious to make the most of the opportunity and It Is believed indeed that Premier Bal four and the majority of the Cabinet agree with the King that a great ef fort should now be made to settle the whole question. What Is feared Is that the treasury, may face the situation In a haggling spirit. The tenants are now full of expectation and are looking for ward to obtaining holdings on the terms laid down in the report, but if the treas ury fails to give the necessary financial assistance the whole scheme will most assuredly collapse.
