NATIONAL ROUND-UP
Cattlemen Are Swarming In
to Kansas City.
BIG DELEGATION FROM OREGON
Trninloml of Men From Wcufoot
1VI1I "Work for Convention In
I'ortlniul In 1004 LeKlnlntlon
Sought From CongreHK
KANSAS CITY. Mo.. Jan. 12. What
promises to be the greatest gathering of
stockmen ever held in this city will be
gin here tomorrow morning, when Presi
dent John W. Springer calls to order the
convention of the National Livestock As
sociation. All day today and far Into the
night delegates and visitors literally
poured into the city. They came from
every direction. Many special trains
bro: ght solid delegations from west and
south, and every regular train boVe Its
complement.
Douglas Belts, president of the Oregon
Voolgrovers' Association, preceded a del
egation from that state, which wants to
entertain the delegates at Portland in
1304. Mr. Belts immediately opened head
quarters and prepared for an enthusiastic
campaign in favor of the "Western metrop
olis. The Oregon contingent -,will arrive
tomorrow morning on a special train,
which also carriea a car laden with sea
food, liquids and fruit, the product of the
state. Others among the first arrivals
"were H. A. Jastio, member of the execu
tive committee from California, and W.
C. Barnes, of Dor;y, N. M., a member
of the sanitary board.
President John W. Springer, who ar
rived yesterday and spent a busy day
getting acquainted with the local com
mittees, making final arrangements for
the gathering and In greeting delegates,
took time to deny that he was a candi
date for the United States Senatorehip
from Colorado, as reported from Denver.
In the four days of the convention busi
ness of the most importance to the live
stock interests will be considered. It is
expected that action which will induce
Congress to pass measures which the as
sociation has caused to be Introduced will
be taken. Among the measures are the
Grosvenor anti-shoddy bill, so-called; a
bill providing for a classification .of the
census of livestock and agricultural sta
tistics: a resolution amending the ship
ping laws by extending the limit for un
loading livestock from 2S to 4S hours, and
the amended Elkins bill, to amend the
interstate commerce act so as to give the
commission power to enforce Its orders
and decrees.
So far there has been little talk of the
election, but it is contended that Presi
dent Springer and Secretary Martin will
be re-elected.

on the point of starting from Fez that

Company, Ltd., today filed In the United

Stratton, heir-at-law.
The complaint alleges that at the time
the mine was sampled, preparatory to
concluding the sale, which had been ne
gotiated through the Venture Corporation,
of London, the samples were "salted so
that the amount of ore estimated on those,
samples was valued at 57,000,000, when In
reality the ore in sight was worth only
.52,000,000 or less." It Is alleged that tho
blocks of samples were opened and quick
ly but thoroughly sprinkled with rich,
ground-up silvanite.
The Venture Corporation will also bring
a similar suit, claiming that its expert, C.
A. Rickard, was deceived by the Ealted
ore. ajid the Individual stockholders will

money, alleging that they were induced to
purchase stock at 55, 510 and 515 when in

PROBING FOR CONSPIRACY
CHICAGO GRAND JURY SUMMONS
ALL COAL MEX.
Must Explain Why Trnlnloatls of
Conl Arc Held Outelde of City
While People Freeze. .
CIUCAGO, Jan. 12. 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.
Scnntc Committee Pn.ts Denies
Under Examination.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. V. Baldwin
Johnson was the principal witness today
hefore the committee of the Senate on
District of Columbia, which is investigat
ing the cost of coal in Washington. Ho
admitted having sold coai.at m a ion
hut ald he did not sell more than 50 tons
nt that rate and that was before the
strike was declared off.
"How much coal have you received from
the Reading Company, and what was done
with It?" Senator Stewart asKeu tne wit
ness. Mr. Johnson declined to answer
that question. He would not say that
he would refuse to answer It, however.
"We will give you until tomorrow to
think it over." said Senator Stewart.
The committee Is attempting to trace
the sales of coal which should be sold
here under the agreement with the rail
road companies at $7 25 per ton.
A. Louisbury, agent of the Reading
Company testified that his company was
sending to Washington an average of 62
cars a day. of which about 12 went to
the Government departments. He agreed
to furnish the names of the dealers. If his
principals were willing to name those to
whom the other coal was sold.
A wholesale dealer testified that he had
sold 650') tons of Reading coal since the
resumption of mining to small local deal
ers at $6 15 per ton, but that he had no
agreement as to what they were to
charge. All the dealers who testified today
agreed that much more independent coal
was coming here than in previous sea
sons.

"Philadelphia. Jan. 12, 1903. To the of
ficers and members of the local unions of
tho United Mlneworkers of America In
the anthracite region:
"Gentlemen You are no doubt aware
that a 'serious coal famine exists In all
the Eastern and seaboard cities during the
shortage of the anthracite coal supply. The
situation has reached an acute stage and
has resulted in great suffering and hard
ship to the poor1 of the cities, whose
earnings are insufficient vto enable them
to pay the excess prices now being
charged for fuel and it Is subjecting the
general public to great Inconvenience.
- "To. relieve the situation and alleviate
as far as possible the suffering now beinu
endured is the duty of every one connect
ed with the production of coal. With this
end in view, we are prompted to request
that" they co-operate with the manage
ment of the mines to increase the produc
tion of coal. The gravity of the situation
is such as o reauire that everv mine
worker shall exert himself and use every
means at his command to this end.
"Upon reading this communication in the
columns of the dallj; papers, local unions
should hold meetings and devise means
whereby the dally output of the mines
may be Increased. The efforts should be
continued until the weather- moderates
and the great necessity for fuel shall have
passed. JOHN MITCHELL.

TOPE K A HAS XO COAL.
Packing-Houses and Gn Works May
Clone for Want of It.
TOPEKA. Kan.. Jan. 12. The fuel sit
uation Is more alarming -in Topeka than
Saturday, two of the largest coal com
panles In the city report that they hav
not a pound of coal on hand with which
to supply their orders, and do not know
when they will be able to get any. Pack
ing-houses and other institutions will have
to close in two days" unless the situation
is relieved. The locar gas company may
have to close this week, as It cannot se
cure coal enough to mako gas. The street
railway company has a very small sup
ply on hand. Other Kansas towns report
practically the same situation.
All the mines in the state are being
worked to their full capacity, but the
situation must be relieved, it at all, by
coal from other states. The weather Is
clear and cold, and considerable suffering
has resulted already.

NEW ROYAL SCANDAL
COUXT DE LOXYAY ABAXDOXS HIS,
PRIXCESS.
Stephanie of Belgium Deserted Be
cause She Could Xot Support
Her Huabnnd.
VIENNA, Jan. 12. Serious differences,
according to Die Zclt, have arisen
between the Countess and Count de Lon-
yay, formerly tho Crown Princess Ste
phanie, during their stay liuthe South of
France. The Count Is reported to have
suddenly left his wife and to have since
given no Intimation of his whereabouts.
The nature of the alleged differences has
not developed.
The Crown Prince Stephanie of Austria
Hungary, widow of the Archduke Ru
dolph, and a daughter of IIng Leopold
of Belgium, was married March 22, 1900,
to Count de Lonyay, a popular diplomat
of high standing In court circles. The
marriage was .bitterly opposed by King
Leopold.
The Associated Press has ascertained
that the story published In Die Zelt is re
peated In other Vienna papers. They re
port that the Count left hi3 wife at Men
tone, January 7, and his present where
abouts are unknown.
Friends of the Count assert that In ad
dition to difficulties In his financial affairs
the Count has found .his position in so
ciety as the husband of the ex-Crdwn
TMnnu. rxf A notrlo.WlinMn.' 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.

Revolutionists .Follow Advice oi
Friends In European Capitals.
BERLIN. Jan. 12. The Macedonian com
mittee In Sofla intends to begin a rebel
lion In Macedonia about April 1.
General Michollawsky, president oi tno
Macedonian central committee, recently
assembled SO representatives of the Mace
donian Provincial organizations and va
rious other influential revolutionists and
submitted to them a report on the result
of his visit to Vienna. Paris and London.
At each place he was told that revolution
and diplomacy must run parallel, i-.ee
the Macedonians first strike for their
own independence and diplomacy might
help later.
He advised a rising April 1. and the
meeting clamorously supported the pro
posal. Boris Saraffoff, the Macedonian
leader and the former president of tho
committee, Is also recruiting for an In
vasion of Macedonia.
PROGRAMME OF REFORMS.
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.

"I was Interviewed by a gentleman in the

other consequences of either excited or

In Pueblo for Doan's Kidney Pills and
took a course of the treatment. They
cured me, and cured me quickly. Since
then I have not had the slightest symp

cure them they could return the box to
me and I wduld pay them for them. No

they were cured." Ask the Laue-Davi3
