him-has reached South Africa and
begun his work of Cancellation. The
role of a great pacifcator is new To
him, and perforce, in view of recent
occurrence, he plays it a little awk

Now half a dozen prosperous and

been created, and the Northern Pa

sanguine predictions that were made
for it at that time by its most sansu;ne

ZERO WEATHER AND NO COAL.
TrainIOads Kept on Suburban Sidetracks,
but None for Sale.

Chicago, Jan. 15.--The temperature
in Chicago tonight dropped "a degrees
in less than two hours, and tonight is
lowering around the zero mark. The
cold wave was preceded by the first
heavy snow storm of the season
Toward nightfall a brisk northwest
wind sprang up and in the outlying
districts the snow is drifted several feet
deep.
There was much suffering among the
poor, but as the worst cases of destitu-
tion had been provided for by charita-
BILE institutions, no deaths we're report
ed during the day. The coal situation
remains unchanged, and its causes and
effects on the suffering of humanity
were discussed by a large number Of
Chicago pastors during their sermons
Sunday.
The actual search for evidence of a
combine OF coal dealers for the purpose
of forcing up the price of fuel in the
Chicago market will be undertaken to.
morrow morning by the special grand
jury. Twenty-Five coal men, some Of
them the heads of wholesale firms and
others chiefs in the councils OF corpo-
rations operating mines, have been
summoned to appear before the grand
jury to tell what they know of the
"ring" which it is alleged exists. 1t
is the intention that no one but coal
men shall Re examined.
Tralnloads of coal cars sidetracked
and labeled with placards instructing
the railroad freight crews to hold the
consignments indefinitely have been
discovered, it was said, by the parties
who caused the investigation TO be
made. 1t is also asserted that beyond
the city lines on one and probably two
roads, countless tons OF coal have been
taken from the cars and heaped up on
either side of the tracks for three
quarters of a mile. The grand jury
wished to be informed why the coal has
not been brought into the market and
put on sale, thus relieving the famine.
Two thousand persons in Chicago are
suffering from ailments directly due
to cold and exposure resulting from the
coal famine, according to the weekly
bulletin of the health department, is
sued today.
Serious results are already seen in
heavy increase in the death rate. and
the health depsrtn ent brands the men
responsible for the situation as guilty
OF constructive homicide. The death
rate last week for children under 5
years old was 1872 per cent greater than
in the same week of last year, and
among persons over go years OF age it
was 36.7 per cent greater.

stifIed BY Natural das.

Chicago, Jan. ia special to the
Tribune from st. Mary's W. Va, says:
Nearly the entire gallery audience at
the Auditorium theater, as well as the
members of the company on the stage,
were overcome by the tunes of natural
gas here last night during perform
ance. Two Of the actresses are at the
hotel with only slight chances Of re-
covery. Many of the spectators in the
balcony and gallery were overcome as
they sat in their seats and had to be
carried outside, where, however, they
soon recovered. The theater is heated
and lighted by natural gas, and an
overflow OF unconsumed gas caused the
trouble.

durability of the nickeled rails to be
three times that Of standard steel.
