GREAT JOY FOR SULTAN.
Turkey the Only Country to Profit
by the Misunderstandinq.

Rome, Feb. 1s-"The sultan is rubbing
his hands" said an ambassador of one
of the leading powers, in explaining that
the only country to profit by the break
ing up of the European understanding in
the Balkans would be Turkey So far
Turkey has only consented to a commits
sion TO study the proposed Austrian rail-
ways and has not as vet given the con-
cessiOn. and 1t is well known how many
years are necessary to obtain cOnces-
sions from the porte.
Meanwhile Russia and France are &C
tive in their endeaVors to further the pro-
iected Adriatic- Black Sea railway to
counterbalance Austria's plans They are
cndeavOTing TO enlist Great Britain and
Italy in this movement, thus forming an
Anglo-Latin compact against Austria and
Germany but Great Britain, under Sir
Henry Campbell-Bannerman, seems to
have lost all imperialstic feeling. while
Italy is hampered by the tie of the triple
alliance

Nav Cross Ohio River at DekOyen.

The Henderson Cleaner says
The information comes from relia-
bic source that the opening Of spring
will see the beginning of operations
by the Illinois Central road which
if carried out, will put more life into
railroading and prove a greater boom
to the travelling and shipping public
than heretofore. The project will
probably result in more freight and
passengers train being put on this
branch of the Illinois Central, and
will again give this city direct con.
neetion with Princeton, the main
line intersection, with the afternoon
passenger service.
The proposed improvement is the
lengthening of the St. Louis Eldora-
do, Illinois Central to the Ohio river,
which 1t will cross down near Deko-
ven, in this State, about thirty miles
from the main line, into Nashville.

Of information given to Chief of Po-

Marion, H., Msrch Sit is re-
ported on good authority that the
Illinois Central Railroad has under
advisemont an extention of one of the
Southern Illinois branches. The
Management has been considering
plans for extention of the St. Louis
Eldorado branch to the Ohio River,
having held everything in check
awaiting Judge Balls de,ision, and
now that Hartman has retained con-
troll of the road, the building of the
extension will be commenced in the
Spring. The plan is to build line
from Harrisburg the terminus of the
new short line recently completed
from Galatia to Harrisburg in a
southeastern direction, cross the river
at Dekoven KY, from which point
the Central has a line running to
Nashville traffic, as it is shorter by
many miles than the present
line.

FIGHT FOR PROHIBITION
Nearly 1000 Cities and Towns To
Vote in Illinois. Women and
Children Working in Pro-
hibitiOn's Cause.
In Nearly q Dozen of the Larger
Cities of the State the Liquor
Fight Has Developed Great
Bitterness.
Special to the Times-D Democrat.

Chicago, March 21.-The hot
test and most extensive fight
the Prohibitionists have eyer
made in Illinois will sweep to-
ward it's finish at the April polls.
when nearly 1000 cities and vii
ages will vote on the question of
wet or Dry"
The contest is being waged in
some portion of every county in
the State except twelve, most Of
which went dry last November.
In some of the cities the fight is
being carried on with an in
tensity seldom equaled. and the
lines are being so closely drawn
between the friends of the saloon
and the foes that for the time
being activities in the big politi-
cal parties have been brought to
a practical standstill in order
that they may not conflict with
the strife over prohibition.
Outside of Chicago only four
of the large Illinois cities will be
without a fight over the question
at the polls next month. They
are Quincy, Ottawa, Peoria and
East St. Louis. In the latter
city the question was kept off the
ballot because the petition was
filed with the city clerk instead
of with the election commission.
In nearly a dozen of the larger
cities the saloon fight has devel-
oped such bitterness that per-
sonal friendships are being split,
business is divided and political
lines are being obliterated. In
Joliet the contest is so bitter
that the business men are split
into two hostile camps that are
SO much at lOggerheads that
trade is suffering. Merchants
who are fighting for a dry town
are being boycotted by the
brewery and distillery interests.
In Springfield the contest is
so intense that 1900 new names
were added to the polling lists on
registration day, due to the in
terest in the fight. In Bloom
ington, Decatur, Danville, Cairo,
Rockford, Alton and other cities
the methods of conducting the
fight are typical OF those in use
in hundreds of other Illinois
communities. Ministers are
preaching temperance every
Sunday; mass meetings are be.
ing held in churches; street
meetings are being held in the
public squares; women and chill
dren are parading the streets
with banners, and house to house
canvasses are being made by the
Women's Christian Temperance
Union. In many cities little
children have been impressed
into the camaign. and are sent
forth to distribute leaflets.
The Personal Liberty League,
recently organized by the OPP
ponents of prohibition is equally
active, and is sending out tons
of literature. In the saloons in
some of the larger cities placards
are posted showing empty store
buildings in Kansas City. Over
them is the caption: due to the
Expulsion of the saloons. The
camera can rot lie." The far.
jmers are being appealed to by
posters showing the decrease in
the consumption of grain if the
