in the parks. A sharp wind accom-
panied the snowfall On the elevated
roads the electric trains were not run
regularly, but the steam trains and the
surface cars were able to handle the
traffic. The weather got colder to-
ward night and the weather bureau
held out no comfort for Sunday, the
prediction being gales. with rain. sleet
and snow.
The heaviest fall Of snow was re-
ported from CooperstoWn, N. Y, where
twelve inches had fallen this evening,
and it was still showing.
Ten inches covered the ground at
Geneva, and at Ithaca and throughout
the region there was eight inches on
the level The street car and steam
railway service in and around Buffalo
was Interrupted. AT Schenectady there
was blizzard weather and barely
enough coal TO supply the wants of the
people.

Prisstocracy."

Berlin. Dec 1S-Professor Mommsen
publishes today in Die Nation an arti-

boring classes.
Professor Mommsen's utterances
have caused a political sensation and

ever been since the resumption of
work in the anthracite regions. This is
especially the case with wholesalers,
who seek to keep the state supplied
There is q moderate supply here for
private consumers, but no coal can be
sent away. The shortage at state in
situations has not been relieved, and the
order has gone out to econonnize as
much as possible.
In many of the smaller towns there
is practically no coal of any kind. Par
ticularly is this the case at York. Beat
rice and Osceola- Snow fell heavily last

saw the young king, 1 was struck by
the fact that he had grown fully half
head since I saw him last July. He
had also broadened out until he was
full-chested and erect and he was the
picture of manly health His face re-
flected his happy disposition, and there
were no traces of his being weighed
down by the cares of state. The king S
tender devotion 10 the queen mother
showed their beautiful family life and
the close relations of the royal family.
The report Of the intended marriage
of the queen was an equally audacious

Referring to SPANS political and so
cial conditions, the ambassador said:
Il am glad to say Spain is again
smiling, the people are happy and tne
country is enjoying fair degree OF
prosperity. The new cabinet brings to-
gether some of the strongest repre-
sentatives Of the two dominant ele-
.nents and promises good results. For
tunately. the country is free from grave
issues just now and is rejoicing at the
