ing the unofficial negotiations in
Switzerland.
Early last week, the French gov
eminent declared that Emperor
Charles and Count Czernin both had
said that the claim of France to AL

This brought a denial from En-
peror Charles in the form of a tele-

Called on the Carpet?
This Immediately brought from
the French government the publ
cation of letter from Emperor
Charles to his brother-inlaw, Prince
Sixtus of Bourbon. In the letter the
emperor said that France should
have Alsace-Lorraine and that Bel
GUM and Serbia should be restored.
He also asked that London and Paris
be felt out as to probable peace
terms.
Count Czernin was in Rumania

Count Ottokar Czernin Won Chude-
nitz, a wealthy Bohemian landowner,
was minister to Rumania when that
country entered the war. Within six
week after the death of Emperor
Francis Joseph, Count Czernin was
appointed foreign minister by EN-
peror Charles. Count CZernin is a
very close friend of Count Berchtold
foreign minister at the outbreak OF
the war and who has been reported
as the political mentor of the young
emperor Count Berchtold has been
opposed to the pan-German wal
! party and his resignation was brought
about by them.
In addition to being foreign min.
lister Count Czernin was premier and
chancellor of the dual empire. He

Czernin has been in diSfaVor with
the rnilitarists of both Austria and

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, April 15.-CORN-Favorable
weather had bearish eject today on corn.
Besides, receipts were large and there were
reports of more corn being consigned from
Toledo to Chicago. On the decline, however,
commission houses turned to the buying
side and brought about a reaction. Open
ing prices, which varied from unchanged
figures to &c lower. with May S127 and
July 81. 49A to $1-50A were followed by a
moderate general upturn-
A more pronounced break took place later
but again the market rallied. Prices
closed unsettled at 1271s May. and 81. 1875
to $1.49A July, with the market as whole
Ac off to sc advance, compared with Sat
urday's finish.
OATS-Absence cf selling pressure allow
ed oats to ascend after some weakness at
the outset The initial sag was due to
symathy with corn. After opening 1s@3sc
off with May S3lAc to S3Ac, prices rose
to well above Saturdays closing level
PROVISIONS-Big supplies of hogs had
only transient depressing influence on
provisions. Trade was small
Strength which developed was apparently
due to the fact that exports for the week
were the largest ever known.
