Earthquake Shakes Constan
tinople and Adds to Ter
ror Of People.
SAID TO BE ILL OMEN,
New Ministry. VIII, it is Believed, Re-
fuse to Give up Adrianople and
Aegean Islands.

London Jan. 25.-Mohammed V,
Sultan of Turkey, has abdicated and
the Ottoman republic has been pro-
claimed by the committee Of Union
and Progress under the leadership OF
Enver Bey, according to a special and
unconfrmed dispatch today from
Bucharest.
Advices from Vienna positively de-
nicd that the Sultan had abdicated.
Constantioople, Jan. 25.-The super
sition among the Moslems were terri
fed today by considerable earth
quake which shook the city in the
early hours. Walls tremhled, VIM
dows were broken, and furniture dis
lodged by the tremor, and some de-
clnred that it was an i'll omen for
the Young Turkish government.
A new national assembly has been
chosen and Mahmud Shifket Pasha,
tn. Grand Visor, called the body into
session today for a fresh consideration
of the joint note of the powers. The
body will formulate reply to the
powers for the consideration of the
new cabinet and the government will
ignore entirely the action Of the kal-
M! Pasha party. who approved the
cessation of Adrianople to the allies.
The new ministry at the suggestion
of Enver Bey, postponed consldera-
ton of definite reply to the powers
pending the decision Of the new par
lament.
1t was regarded Us certain chat the
new legislative body would refuse to
recommend the giving up of Adrl-
anople and the Aegean Islands, but 1t
was believed that the Balkan war
would not be resumed. The Young
Turks are in control of all branches
of the government but they declare
they do not want war. 1t is be[lev-
ed the new government now counts on
intervention to end the struggle and
hopes also to save the Holy City.
It is believed that the porte is play
ing heavily the assurance that the
powers will not countenance the re-
newed fighting and that rather than
permit hostilities the powers might
turn on the allies and compel them
to lessen their demands, if Turkey dem
on strates that she cannot be coerced.
With Enver Bey, the revolutionary
leader installed as military comman-
dant, the city of Constantinople is
urder most rigid martial law. Guards
patrol all the streets, and disorder
has almost been entirely suppressed
Last night there were GisorderlN
street fighting but it stopped when
score of men were arrested and jailed.
There was vigorous denial here OF
the report that the Young Turks
were in possession of the palace and
that Sultan Mohammed V had been or
was 70 be deposed. Rumors in Euro
pean capitals had it that Mohammed
had met the same fate that Enver
Bey and his followers meted out to
the former Sultan, Abdul Hamid.

THERE MAY BE NO
CHANGE IN COAL

West Virginia Operators Are Not
Afraid Of Any Effect Change In
the Duty Might Have Because It's
Quality and Not the Tariff That
Sells Their Coal
WASHINGTON. D. G.. March 20. =
What the ways and means committee
win do with the duty on coal in the
bin which is to be reported to Con
gress In about two weeks cannot be
told and has it almost ready to be
printed, but is liable to change in
many respects before it will be pre-
scented to congress.
The tariff bills of the last congress
did not affect the duty on coal leay-
ing it at 40 cents a ton, as it has been
for many years. In a general way it
has been understood that the lines OF
the last bill will be closely followed
In Che forthcoming measure which
should indicate that there might be
no reduction in the duty on coal. At
the same time there is a disposition
to provide for free raw material which
might indicate that coal will go upon
the free list in the new bill.
Whether the duty on coal is retain.
ed at the present figure, reduced or
wiped out entirely. viii make little
difference to West Virginia coal op.
orators or to the miners. As a matter
of fact the coal from West Virginia
is sold in competition with the Goals
of the world and it is quality rather
than a tariff duty which provides q
market where It gets into competition
with other coal Coal operators are
not at all afraid of any acct which
their coal might have on their bust
ness. In fact Senator Watson, one
of the largest coal operators in the
world while he was in the senate was
an earnest advocate Of free coal and
particularly of reciprocal relations
with Canada for removal OF all du-
ties on coal shipped between these
two countries. Even when West Vir-
,ginia had q solidly Republican dele
CATION in the house the representa-
tiyes Of the house passed a bill remov-
ing all tariff duty from coal and not
a word of protest was uttered by any
member Of the house from West Vir-
ginia. This shows that regardless Of
politics there is nothing to fear in
West Virginia will take little interest
should ever be provided by law.
In view of these facts those persons
engaged in The production OF coal in
West Virginia will take little interest
in whether the coming bill is TO re-
tain the present duy on coal or 20
cut it out entirely. No fight has been
made before the ways and means com
mittee in connection with the duty
on coal and nobody seems to pay
much attention to whether the duty
is to be reduced or not. The sale of
coal is one of those matters which
regulates itself without the assistance
of tariff bills and it viii make little
difference to West Virginia or any
other coal producing state whether
there is high tariff a low tariff or
no tariff at all on coal
