COAL FAMINE
Brought About by the Owners
of Times.
The Miners VIII Make Every Effort
to Secure a Settlement
Their Way.

CHICAGO, May 5.-The soft coal famine
is beginning to be seriously felt in Chicago
and some of the surrounding towns as
we'll. Coal that ten days ago was praeti-
caily q drug in the market at SO 70 a ton
was eagerly sought for at So a top. and it
is claimed by some dealers that as high as
SIS so was obtained for small quantities.
Some of the Chicago consumers attribute
the famine to a scheme of the Ohio and
Western Pennsylvania operators. Assist
ant General Manager w ood of the Chicago
and Alton is OF this belief.
'For the last year." he said. 'the Ohio
operators have been storing coal at the
various lake points. They accumulated
sc, 900 tons and then cut the wages of the
men to the starvation point. knowing that
they would strike rather than accept the
cut. They also figured that the Indiana,
Illinois and Iowa miners would strike in
order to aid their Ohio and Pennsylvania
brethren"
Several other railroad officials made the
same statement. One said that over sc, 600
tons of Pitlsburg coal lay in barges at the
docks at Cairo and even greater quantity
was at the ST. Louis docks and at Alton.
COLUMBUS. Ohio, May 5.-John Mcbride,
president of the United Mime workers of
America, to-day issued a call to send one
delegate for each 500 members to a ma
tional convention TO be held at Cleveland,
Ohio, May IA. preparatory to meeting OF
the ioint session with the coal operators
from all the States on the following day.
PITTsBURG. May 5.-The coal strike
continues. and it is exceedingly hard to

sides are waiting. The operators who are
friendly to a conference to secure uni
tormity of rates expect that settlement
will be reached at the Cleveland conference.
They are notifying customers that they
will be in position to supply coal as
usual This is based on the assumption
that, though all operators do not agree to
pay the price. the miners will be able to
secure such a large proportion of mine
owners who do as to justify their allowing
the mines of the friendly operators to
start and keep idle other pits until the
uniform rate is secured. 1t is learned that
this meets the views of the miners
officials. They have succeeded in totally
stopping the output in Western Pennsyl-
and Ohio, and are gradually getting out
all miners elsewhere. They believe all
miners will be idle by May Is. and will CO.
operate in any agreement which might be
reached.
ALTON, ILL.,, May 5.-The first serious
result of the coal-miners' strike was en-
countered here when the mammoth Illi-
nois Glass Company's works had to shut
down for lack of coal. The plant uses
about twenty cars of coal daily. and it is
impossible to get this now. Over 1000
workers are thrown out of employment.
BELLAIRE, Ohio. May 5.-The blast fur
nances and the steel plant of the Belaire
Nail Company were closed down this
vening owing to shortage of coal and
coke. This throws 1000 men out OF work.

THAT AFFAIR OF THE MAFIA.
Steps Taken to Protect Itali ans
Who May Come to the
United States.

ROME, May 5.-In the Chamber of
Deputies to-day, during the debate on the
foreign estimates. Baron Blanc. Minister
of Foreign Affairs, said in regard to the
conditions imposed upon Italian emigrants:
1--WE have been in negotiation with the
United States Government and have the
satisfaction to announce that we have
found the authorities at Washington to be
most anxious to Cooperate with US. with
the view of protecting our immigrants
from the snares of so-called agents and
bankers at the port of arrival, and of put
ting them in the way of embarking in pro-
fitable agricultural pursuits. We hope to
attain the same result with Mexico, whose
Government appears to be well disposed"
Baron Blanc proceeded to refute the as
sertion of one of the Deputies who claimed
that the New Orleans affair nearly led to
the dispatch of Italian men-of-war to the
United States, saying: "The barbarous
lynch law falling upon innocent Italians
unfortunately interrupted the friendly re-
latons existing between the two countries
and served the profit of the illegal assassins
which preyed upon our emigrants. | be-
lIeve the restoration of harmony will have
the effect of delivering Italian emigrants
from local tyranny and that it will direct
them to new fields of agriculture and
colonization, especially in the States
of South America, where Spanish is
spoken and where the climate is similar to
that of Italy. The more severe legal and
social statutes will open to them prospects
not less favorable than in the South Amer
ican republics"
Dealing with the African colonies Baron
Blanc announced that Premier Crispi and
Sir Francis Clareford. the British Embas-
sador, had to-day signed protocol fixing
the boundaries of the Italian and British
spheres of interest in the regions situated
about the Gulf of Alden. Continuing Baron
Blanc assured the chamber that the Gov
ernment intended to pursue in the African
colonies approved methods of commercial
expansion. The Baron then referred to
the position OF Abyssinia, where, he said,
| Italy was called upon to undertake a
| tutelage which was highly important for
| the future Of the African continent, where

OUT OF THE CHURCH.
Bishop Matz Thunders Against
Father Malone.
Has accommodated the Priest and
a Large Part of His Con-
gregation.

DENVER, May 5.-This afternoon Bishen
Matz excommuuicated Father Malone and
all the members of st. Joseph's parish
who were present at the recent parish
meeting at which it was decided to sue
Father Malone civilly for the purpose of
vindicating him from the charge of short
age in his accounts despite the desire of
the Bishop that the suit be dropped. There
were hundred or more at the meeting
referred to, and this means that at least a
third of the leading mem bers of the parish
are now suspended from the church.
There has been considerable ill-feeling
between Bishop Matz and Father Malone
for several years over the school question.
The Bishop uphOlds and main tains
parochial schools in this diocese in opposi-
tiOn to the recommendation of Mon
signor Satolli, whose policy is upheld by
Father Malone both in the pulpit and the
Colorado Catholic, of which he is the
editor.
The feeling between the two reverend
gentlemen at one time became so bitter
that the matter would have been referred
TO Monsignor Satolli for settlement had
not influential church members interfered.
The present suit arose over the disposi-
tion of the funds of St.Joseph's Church, of
which Father Malone is pastor. The
Bishop on several occasions called on the
priest for an accounting and as often inti-
mated a misrepresentation of the funds to
the extent of S12,o66 Father Malone hav-
ing failed to keep the receipts for money
expended, but having in his possession
only the stubs of his check book, was un-
able to secure at he thought a just
hearing, through an ecclesiastical suit.
The corporation of st. Joseph's Church,
therefore, brought an amicable civil suit
against Father Malone in the District
Court to secure settlement. This in
vestigation, instead of showing the priest
q defaulter, proved that the corporation
was indebted to him over $780, Before
the decision was rendered Bishop Matz
secured an injunction restraining further
proceedings in the case, and at the same
time suspended Father Malone from the
priesthood. That night the congregation
of St. Joseph's Church. against the orders
of the Bishop. held an Indignation meet
ing, at which the acts of the Bishop were
severely denounced. To-day Father Ma
lone filed his reply to the Bishop s applica-
ton for permanent injunction, and the
latter, Immediately upon learning of it,
accommodated the priest and that por-
tion of his congregation that took part in

century. where medieval fetes will be pro-
duced during the exhibition. King Leo
pold has promised to be present at one Of
