8AYS CONSPIRACY EXISTS.
Attorney General Summons Special
Grand Jury at Chicago.
SPRINGFIELD, 111, A special grand
Jury met In Chicago Saturday to in
vestigate tho alleged conspiracy be
tween coal operators, railroads and
coal dealers to Increase the prlco of
coal on tho Chicago market
Attorney General Hamlin will lead
tho investigation. The attorney gen
eral recently secured the services of
competent men whom he sent to tho
mines nlong the Chicago & Alton road,
and also other coal producing regions,
nnd tho reports which they havo mado
convinced him that the market Is be
ing controlled by certain dealers and
operators. The last report made to
him was received Friday afternoon
and contained somo valuable informa
tion. Whllo tho attorney general has not
mado public the evidence with which
ho has been furnished, ho claims it
will show that certain coal operators
and dealers, somo who are interested
in mines and some who are not, en
tered into an agreement by which
thoy could control the coal market
Ho did not stato that any of tho rail
ways were Interested in the alleged
combination, although he has also in
vestigated on this point. Railroad of
ficials state that they loso no time in
transporting coal from tho coal-producing
regions to Chicago, but that tho
delay Is caused by the dealers there
not returning tho empty cars In duo
time. This furnished an important
foundation for tho inquiry, and on it
several interesting statements have
been secured.
Forty witnesses wore named in tho
subpoenas given to the sheriff.
Small dealers aro not tho mark at
which tho state's attorney alms. Whllo
tho nnmoB on tho list of witnesses aro
withheld, It Is known that they aro
those of mine owners and wholesale
dealers In coal.
Tho state's attorney In hl3 petition
for a special jury says:
"From Information brought to him
tho state's attorney has reason to be
lieve that there exists among cer
tain owners and operators of coal
mines nnd certain dealers in bitumin
ous coal doing business In Cook coun
ty, a combination to do an illegal act.
Injurious to the public trade, to-wit:
To prevent competition In the sale and
delivery al such coal In the county
and to regulate and fix tho prlco there
of, nnd that such a combination has
been entered Into nnd exists to fix
nnd limit the amount and quantity of
such products as are mined in this
state and nlso such as are mined and
produced elsewhere and brought Into
tho county for consumption, and to
regulate and fix the prlco thereof.
"It Is a matter of general Informa
tion that at the present tlmo great
quantities of such products have been
brought into the county for sale and
consumption, and that the same Is sold
only at exorbitant prices, so much be
yond the cost of production and trans
portation (hat such owners, operators
and dealers receive unreasonable prof
Its and tho consumers are required to
pay exorbitant prices; that by reason
of such combination and tho withhold
ing of sales thereunder great distress
and suffering prevail among tho poor
In tho community, who are unable to
pay bucIi prices for such necessities,
nnd grent hardships exist among the
different lines of Industries requiring
a continuous supply of products to
carry on their business by reason of
the pretended inability of the opera
tors, owners and dealers to supply the
demand at tho ordinary market
prices."
Senate Investigates.
WASHINGTON. Tho senate com
mltteo on the District of Columbia
continued Us investigation of the coal
shortage in Washington. Jo3eph
Crnwford, goncral agent of the Penn
sylvania railroad, said that during the
last yenr thero had been a decrease
In tho quantity of anthraclto brought
to Washington over his lino of 30 pei
cont, but during November and De
cember thero had been an Increase
over tho normal roceipts. There had
boon no increase In freight rates from
tho mines.
W. 5J. Zeh. a local dealer, declared
it was much easier to secure coal
from the independent companies than
from tho railroad companies, which
indicatod that the large companies
wero disposing of their coal to the
smaller ones to keep .the prices up.
CONTROLJROSTS
MR. HOAR ADDRESSSES THE SEN
ATE ON HIS BILL.
ADVISES PUBLICITY AS A CURE
Nation Sees that Common Alarm Ic by
No Means Baseless Officers Must
Be Held Personally Liable Peril In
Corporate Wealth.
WASHINGTON In tho senate
Tuesday tho Vest reBolution Instruct
ing tho commltteo on flnanco to pre
paro and report a bill removing tho
duty, on anthracite coal was consid
ered. Mr. Vest (Mo.) said the flnanco com
mltteo could do nothing, and, there
fore, ho could not see tho necessity
of Mr. Aldrlch's (R. I.) motion to re
fer tho resolution to tho flnnnco com
mittee. "This no longer is a party ques
tion," ho said, "but a question of abso
luto humanity. We aro not on tho
vergo of a crisis in regnrd to coal,
but are actually in it. Women and
children have been frozen to death
and my only solicitude Is to find u
remedy for this disgraceful and outra
geous condition of affairs."
Senators stood dumb, ho added,
either afraid or unwilling to take any
action answering the appeals of tho
poor, freezing women and children
with a party cry "stand pat." Noth
ing was to be done with tho sacred
elephant of the Dlngley tariff law.
Tho senator from Massachusetts Mr.
Lodge had endeavored to administer a
homeopathic dose in tho shapo of a
suspension of a duty for ninety days,
but If medicine was needed at all it
was in allopathic doses. By refer
ring tho resolution to the committee
it would have no chance to pass.
"Don't wo know," ho continued,
"that when we send the. resolution to
the flnanco commitee we send it to its
execution?"
He criticised tho Dlngley tariff and
said there was no more chance today
to reduco a single duty In tho Dlngley
net than for him to carry off tho cap
ital building on his shoulders.
Mr. Aldrlch (R. I.) said ho desired
to make full answer to Mr. Vest, but
aa Mr. Hoar (Mass.) had given notice
that he would speak on his trust bill,
ho asked that the resolution go over
until Wednesday. He took occasion,
however, to deny certain statements
by Mr. Vest, attributed to Mr. Dlngley,
to tho effect that tho rates of tho
bill were mado unnecessarily high In
order that reciprocity treaties could be
made.
Trusts Must Ee Regulated.
Tho resolution went over and Mr.
Hoar addressed tho senate upon his
anil-pass bill.
Tho address of tho senator was de
voted entirely to the question of
trusts and partly to an explanation of
his recently introduced anti-trust bill.
Ho began his address with the as
sumption that all thoughtful men are
agreed as to the necessity of legis
lation, state or national, for the con
trol of trusts.
He said that as yet there had been
only apprehension and alarm, but no
serious Injury, except In the case of
tho recent coal strike, on account of
trusts. On the contrary, the progress
of our material prosperity had been
greater in the past few years than
ever before had been known and our
workmen were better off. Still there
Is, ho said, actual peril and it is none
tho less real because it involves only
tho future nnd not the present.
The senator then took up the dis
cussion of the effect of the control of
vast wealth by individuals, saying
that in such a system thero was much
to threaten republican liberty. Most
of tho vast fortunes of tho present
day had been accumulated within
thirty years.
"Is thero anythins to render It un
likely," ho asked, "that if ono of
these vast fortunes has grown from a
hundred thousand to a hundred mil
lion or a thousand million in thirty
years, that, in the hands of the next
possessor, In another thirty or fifty
years, the hundred million may be
come a hundred thousand million? Is
thero anything to stop the accumu
lation of these snowballs? Cannot
tho same power and business ability
and capital that can control all tho
petroleum in the country control all
tho coal? Cnn it not control tho rail
road and tho ocean-carrying trade?
Can It not buy up and hold in ono
man's grasp the agricultural and
grazing lands of new and groat states
and tho coal mines nnd silver mines
and copper mines?"
But, great as wore the possibilities
of tho accumulation of groat wealth
by individuals, he did not And In ytich
accumulation tho same peril that is
found in corpornto control of such
wealth. This was true, he said, be
cause the natural man dies nn-1 his
estate is distributed under the law,
whllo tho corporation lives forever.
"It never goes through the probate
court," be said.
"Internal transactions are kept
I secret It is not sollcltious for its
' own honor, except so far as Its honor
or reputation Is essential to its gct
I ting money. It hns no soul and no
conscience. In general, tho men who
aro most powerful in its management
can. if they see fit, avoid personal
liability for obligations."
Tho senator said that now tho great
corporations are in good hands, but
suppose some Nupoleon of flnanco
should come Into tho control of a
thousand million dollars. Would not
that possibility bo a real public dan
ger? Such a power can make wars
or prevent wars. It can threaten a
community with a coal famine, a
wheat famine and it cnn execute Its
threats. Ho had no fear but that tho
American people could meet such
emergencies, but it wero better to
forestall them.
Remedies Proposed.
Ho then presented tho following
outline of the restrictions Imposed by
his bill on corporations:
First Publicity in the conduct of
their business and the constitution of
their organization.
Second The power to stop their
business altogether if they violate tho
laws enacted by congress.
Third Strict penalty on them and
their officers for such violations.
Fourth Personal liability for all
debts, obligations and wrong-doings
of the directors, officers and agents,
unless the laws bo fully compiled
with. This liability Is secured by re
quiring tho personal consent to tho
provisions of this bill and acceptance
of all its obligations by such officers,
directors and agents before they en
ter upon office.
As to tho effect of tho measure in
case it should becomo a law ho said:
"If this bill should becomo a law
and becomo effective, no corporation
engaging in tho commerce which is
within the jurisdiction of congress can
keep its condition a secret No such
corporation can do business on ficti
tious capital or watered stock. No
corporation can oppress any rival,
whether corporate or individual, by
any unlawful practices.
"If it does it will be on tho condi
tion thnt every ono of its manngers
becomo personally liable for its debts
and its torts, and will be liable also
to heavy criminal liability.
"This bill depends for its validity
on the constitutional power of con
gress to regulate international and in
terstate commerce.
Upon tho conclusion of Mr. Hoar's
speech Mr. Nelson (Minn.) resumed
his remarks begun yesterday in op
position to the omnibus statehood bill.
PUSH TRUST LAWS.
President Desires to Curb the Com
bines. WASHINGTON. President Roose
vcit had a conference Wednesday with
Speaker Henderson and Representa
tive Grosvenor of Ohio with regard to
proper anti-trust legislation. Tho
conference lasted for a considerable
time, the situation in the houso being
discussed thoroughly.
It is understood that the president
Impressed upon his callers, who went
to the executive offices at his re
quest, his desire that some legislation
dealing with the trust question should
be enacted at the present session of
congress. No particular measure was
under discussion and, of course, nono
was agreed upon.
"Tho trust question Is a most dif
ficult ono to handlo In a legislative
way," said General Grosvenor, as ho
left the executive offices, "but I think
somo measure will be enacted into
law at this session. It will bo neces
sary to steer a middle courso between
tho desires of the radical anti-trust
people and those who profess to see
little evil In trusts or combinations of
capital. That such a course will bo
adopted by congress I havo no doubt"
It is stated that at the conference
the question of bringing the subject
of trusts before the- house in a formal
way at an early dato was considered,
but what conclusion, if any, waB
reached is not known.

Trot. Thomas r. Adkin, dlscciercr of the Adkin
Vltaopathlc treatment.
Prof. Adklu lieala not by drugs, nor by Chris
tian Science, nor by Osteopathy, nor ty Hypno
tism, nor by Divine Healing, but by a subtle
psychic force of nature Ic combination with;
certain vital magnetic rcdemles which contain
the very elements of life and health. -
A reporter recently talked with Prof. Adkin.
and was asked to Invite all readers of this pjper,
who aro sick or mho are worled by the Ills of
those dear to them, to write to him for assist
ance. '"Some people bae declared," said I'rof.,
Adkin, "that my powers aro of Ood; they call,
roe a Divine healer, a man of mysterious pow
ers. This Is not so, I euro because 1 understand
nature, because I use the subtle force of nature,
to build up the ayttem and restore hoalth. Ilut
at the same tlmo I believe that the Creator would,
not have given me the opportunity to make tht.
discoveries I hate made or the ability to develop
them. If He had not intended that I should use
them for the good of humanity. I therefore,
ifeel that It Is my duty to give the benefit or;
the science I practice to all who are suffering.)
1 want you to tell your readers that they an,

-aBes, nor how hopeless they may seem, I want
hem to write to me and let me make them,

I So great Is the sensation wrought In the medl-i
cal world by the wonderful cures periurmwd by
I'rof. Adkin that several professional gentlemen
(were asked to Investigate tho cures. Among
.thea-i gentlemen were r. L. D. Hawley and
(Dr. L. a. Doane, both famous physicians and
'surgeons. After a thorough and painstaking In
vestigation these eminent physlolans were so as
tounded at the far reaching powers of I'rof. Ad
kin, and the wonderful efficacy of Vltaopathy that
lthey volunteered to forsake all other ties In
(life and all other kinds of treatment and deotu
themselves to assisting I'rof, Adkin In his great
work for humanity. With the discovery of the
hdkn Vltaopathlc treatment eminent physicians
are generally agreed that the treatment of dis
ease has at last been reduced to an exact science.
In all some S.000 men and women have been
cured by the powers of Prof. Adkin. Some
.were blind, some were lame, some were deaf,
some were paralytics, scarcely ablu to move, so
fcicat waa their infirmity. Others were afStcted
(with bright' a disease, heart disease, consump

were sufferers from kidney trouble, dyspepsia,
nervous debility. Insomnia, neuralgia, constipa

to drunkenness, morphine and other evil habits.

& cure Even those on the brink of the grave,
with all hope of recovery gone and despaired ol
fby doctors and frltnda alike, have been restored
to perfect health by the force of Vltaopathy and
Prof. Adkln's marvelous skill. And, remarkable
ss It may seem, distance has made no differ,
fence. Those living far away have been cured In
ahe privacy of their own homes, as well as thosa
who have been treated In person. Trot. Adkin
inserts that he can cure any one at any distance
as well aa though he stood before them.
Not long ago John Adams of Ulakrsbury. la.,
who had been tamo for twenty yearn, was per
manently cured by I'rof. Adkin without' an opera
tion of any kind. About the same time tho
city of Rochester. N. Y , was rtartled by tho
