Chicago, Feb. 13.A "Washington spe cial to the Chicago.Tribune says: Congress will surely authorize a sweeping investigation of the alleged control of the production and transpor tation of coal by the railroads. Unfortunately the extent of the in quiry probably will prevent any immed iate results and the present differences between masters and men the mining regions either will be settled in advance or result in a tremendous lock-out be ioie the government machinery really gets into action. Senator Tillman's resolution provides foi a thoro investigation of the whole subject by the interstate commerce com mission. That body never hitherto had any au thority to do anything more than to in quire into questions of rates, discrimi nations, rebates and railway practices. The law creating the commission gave it no authority to go into the financial side of the lailroads. I was to concern Itself exclusively with questions of op eration. Radical Departure. The proposed investigation, therefore, is a radical departure and it marks an awakened sense of public duty on the part of the congress, dealing with the whole railroad question. Senator Tillman has taken the resolu tion originally submitted by Mr. Gilles pie in the house and remodeled it in such a way as to make it even more sweeping, but more direct. I its pres ent form it will require action by both houses. I is a joint resolution and that shape must come before the presi dent for his signature. This is made necessary because it is proposed to have the investigation con ducted by the interstate commerce com mission. I the department of com merce had been appealed to the senate alone would have had the authority to direct the making of an inquiry and it would not have been necessary to get a resolution thru both houses. Strikes at Coal Merger. Senator Tillman's resolution strikes at the feature of the eoal merger. I is said on excellent authority about the capitol that this inquiry, if properly conducted by the interstate commerce commission, will produce sensational re sults. I .is an open secret that promi nent officials of the coal-carrying roads arc interested directly and indirectly in certain collieries. These factsare said to be notorious in the coal regions, and small operators all along have claimed that they could get no cars until the favored miner had been fully supplied. "WOBTH KNOWING that Allcock's are the original and genuine porous plasters, all others are Imitations. RAILROAD WILL BE BDILT TO ALASKA Seattle, Feb 13.It is announced from San Francisco that a syndicate- has been organized including J. Morgan & Co., the Havemeyers and other strong men, financially, to build a rail road from Valdez into the interior of Alaska. The survey has been made up thru the Copper River valley and it is stated that a thousand men will be at work on this line early in the summer. Alaska seems destined to get some railroads, after all. Th Alaska Central^ beginning at Seward, has been com pleted for a distance of about fitty miles and is hurrjang forward to .Fair banks. The road from Valdez will pen etrate the Copper Biver region and ultimately, it is thought, will reach Eagle City on the Yukon. John Bosen of Seattle, president of the_ Northwestern Commercial company, is interested in this enterprise and his announcement a few days ago that the Guggenheim and Rockefeller smelter trust intended to build on the bay of San Francisco the biggest copper smelter in the world, is taken as evi dence that something is going to be done to bring copper out or the interior of Alaska. The almost simultaneous an nouncement of the railway from Valdez thru the Copper Biver country is at least significant of important develop ment in that part of Alaska. IT'S DIFFERENT Since Coffee Left. A Wisconsin lady says of coffee: '/From childhood I had been used to drinking coffee, and grew very fond "'When in course of time besran to suffer from stomach and bowel troubles, with accompanying head aches, pams in the chest and loss of appetite and flesh, I was slow to sus pect that coffee was the cause sister, who had used and knew the virtues of Postum Food Coffee, per suaded me to try it. I gave up the old lnd ,,i coffee with reluctance, think- ing that I would never find a hot table drink that I would relish so well. I was therefore most agreeably surprised to discover that Postum when properly made thoroughly boiled, was so very palatable. I proved to be a rich, creamy, delicious beverage, soothing and quieting to the nerves and healthily invigorating. I also found it nutritions, as the old kind of coffee never was "Postum began to help me from the very beginning, and I was thus en couraged to continue its use, until I am happy to say, it landed me safely in Wellville, where I have been for three years and where I propose to re main.

Via Port of Spain, Island of Trinidad, Feb. 13.The Venezuelan government yesterday, Feb 8, transmitted to M. Maubourguet, the former charge d'af faires of enezuela at Paris, who is also Venezuela's representative in London, a long note dated Feb. 7, of which the following is a synopsis: "You will Answer Premier Rouvier's note of Jan 18, addressed to you as follows: 1 am ordered by my government to say that to approciate the situation and the case, it is necessary to discriminate, The real facts are that the Venezuelan overnment said it would not treat thru Taigny (former French charge d'affaires in Venezuela) until satisfac tory explanations were given and not. as M. Bouvier's note states, that Foreign Minister Ybarra had notified the French representative that he would not have any further official lelations with him. Cable Company Affair. "That, regarding the cable company, France did not, because she could not, allege a denial of justice and instead of approaching Venezuela in a friendly manner, accused her of violating French rights, thereby abandoning the legal road and assuming the responsibilities of the cable company. Venezuela asks: Did the cable company fill its contract? Did the French government employees assist the wreckers of Venezuelan lib erties? I not Venezuela yields. Otherwise, she holds France responsible and is willing to submit this to arbitra tion. "Venezuela thruout has acted in a friendly manner and withdrew her note when requested to do so. When she prohibited the relanding of M. Taigny it was in order to avoid greater un pleasantness, but France violently ex pelled M. Maubourguet without alleg ing any fault. "It must also be remembered that France before the mixed tribunal claimed 86,000,000 bolivars, but they never had a quarter of this in Venezue la. "If these facts can be disproved, Venezuela bows and accepts the obliga tions. "Ybarra." 24th Annual Eeduced-Price Sale. The Great Plymouth Clothing House.

And from my knowledge of Minneap olis and the large number of Scandina vians among its citizens, I am sure of our welcome here. "When we left Sweden, things were very quiet. The disturbance caused by the withdrawing of Norway from under the crown of Sweden has subsided. I do not think any of the Swedish peo ple have anything but good wishes for Norway. Th separation of the two countries had been coming on for some time and was not a great surprise to the people of Sweden when it became an accomplished fact."

A conference will be held Feb. 20. Secretaries of the various church clubs in the city have been notified of preliminary action that has been taken, asking the clubs to send three delegates each to the meeting. Names are to be mailed to Clinton M. Norton, 2000 El liot avenue. Investigation has shown that Minne apolis has at least twenty-five churches with church clubs, or affiliated clubs. These clubs are discussing mainly mat ters of civic and social conditions and are doing a useful work in educating their members in the duties of higher citizenship. It was found that each club was do ing its work without reference to the work of the other organizations and practically without recognition of their existence. To lay plans to secure effi ciency of all clubs an informal gather ing of eight representatives of the larg er church clubs held a meeting recent ly, at which all phases of tn question, were considered and it was decided that the time was ripe for a combined effort.
