Chairman of Illinois State Council of V Detense Explains Why Short-

Is Coming,

OHICAOO. II!.. July 14.—-"(Chicago people should buy and store their coal How for use next winter,'' said Samuel Inaull, chairman of the state council *f national defense, "Whether or not the price is as low lis it should be is beside the question. If we do not buy and store coal now It is doubtful whether we shall be able to get it in the fall at any price. "Investigation shows that the demand for coal produced in the Illinois itiistrict this year will be much greater than last year or ever before. And the supply of railroad cars for moving this coal will be greatly overtaxed. tTnless the mines are kept working at full capacity all this summer and all the available cars are used In bringing the coal to Chicago, I am certain

We shall have a coal famine next winter. Vast Troop Movement. "Beginning next month the national tniard and the new national army will t)e mobilized in their great training ramps lp various parts of the country. 9"he railroads will be called on to move 1,000,000 men, with all their vast stores pf equipment and supplies. Then these £reat military cities must be kept constantly supplied with foodstuffs, fuel, Hxmy material. Think of what an enormous strain that vast movement will put on the resources of the railroads! "Tho state council feels that every Civilian should got his coal and so far frs possible his other supplies Into storage bfefore that great military moveMerit begins. "The state WMinefl haa had nothing to do with fixing prices for coal. But It wishes to make clear its conviction ,|hat business menn, and apartment house owners, and especially small householders, should—at the best price •they can get—buy and store Immediately all the coal they are likely to freed during the coming winter. Our Experience last winter makes it certain that ordinary pnidence and foresight now will save, not only worry "find anxiety, but—in the long run— probably money as well.

Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg, the imperial chancellor. He quizzed each deputy privately, encouraging all of them to express freely their views on Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg. Individual audiences lasted more than half an hour each. The crown prince is reported to have said he was doing this in accordance with the wishes of Emperor William, who had suggested that he form his own opinions of the chancellor's policy through Interviews with party leaders.

The morning papers appear to have had no intimation of the impending strike of reichstag deputies and the emperor's summons to Field Marshal Von Hlndenburg, chief of the general staff. They devote their columns to a discussion of the Prussian franchise reforms and the paradox that a crisis, originating in the demand for liberal reforms and the proclamation of a moderate peace program, should have made possible the supplanting of Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg by the chancellor candidate, Von Buelow, with whom Von Kuelow by comparison is almost a radical and who is an avowed believer in annexationist peace.

The Tageblatt opposes Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg's retirement vigorously while other papers are lukewarm or openly hostile to the present chancellors

The socialist or^aji, Vorwaerts, assumed that the royal instruct'ons will insure the passage of the Prussian reform Mil In the shap* prescr'bei by the king. Other papers are optimistic. They believe the conservatives quite capable of disobe3*ing the sovereign and again frustrating reform.

Baron Von Sedlita, the free conservative leader, says in the Morgen Post that unless outside circumstances, notably the outcome of the war. affect the decision, it may be assumed that the majorities In both houses of the Prussian parliament will oppose equal suffrage and pass a half way measure. He suggests that the government and the reformers will find It advisable to accept a half loaf rather than risk grave internal conflicts with the outcome doubtful.

The Bourse Gazette, national liberal, says not even a majority of that party con be counted upon to support equal suffrage in Prussia. The Tageblatt and other papers assume that a thorough reorganization of the house, perhaps by packing it with new peers, is necessary before the equal franchise bill will pass the upper house.

The conservatives and members of the clerical centre party in the diet have Btarted playing for delay and have abandoned their previous demand for a session of the diet before autumn. They profess to believe, that it is impossible for the government to submit the bill before October.

Local Anzeiger Squelched. COPENHAGEN, July 14.—The Berlin Lokal Anzeiger has been suppressed indefinitely by the military authorities The reason is not given but presumably it Is on account of an attack on Austro-Hungary in connection with a statement by Count Czernin, Austro-Hungarlan foreign minister, who has come out for peace without annexation.

FRANCE CELEBRATES FETE

Fervor and Joy Unknown in Many Years Marks Occasion As He suit of.U. S. Entry Into War.

PARIS, July 14.—France today celebrated its national fete with fervor and quiet joy unknown in many years. The Russian revolution has made Frenchmen realize more vividly the meaning of the great epoch which, dawning in America in 1776, culminated in France in 1779, in a great revolution whose spirit after a century is about to have its full fruition in the destructions of the last bastile of absolutism by the forces of allied democracies. "It is a pity," s^ys Paul Deschanel, president of the chamber of deputies in a message to the .Journal, "that the Germans cannot see our national fete, they who Relieve us to be starving And at the end of our resources. 'In the month of April, notwithstanding magnificent results, we dfH not realize our hopes. Since then, a noble leader who has had nothing but success in this war, a great infantryman, a wise, upright and clear mind has been put at the head of our armies. Already the Russians are fulfilling their pledges and here are the Americans bringing us their powerful support, not only in money, airplanes and ships, but in men and guns. "America's intervention while a decisive verdict on the justice of our cause is a sure guarantee of victory. It makes it more than ever our duty to hold on."

U. S. Chemists Evolve Clycerin From Sugar

WASHINGTON, July 14—Discovery In the internal revenue division laboratory of a process for manufacturing glycerin from sugar was made public today by the treasury department.

Under the secret process evolved the cost of this substance, a heavy factor in the manufacture of explosives, will be reduced to slightly more than onefourth of its present cost.

Glycerin is at present manufactured almost entirely from fats at a coat of ninety cents a pound, which is six times Its cost of production before the war. Extraction of the product from Rugar will insure production, officials estimate, at 25 cents a pound or less. The immense importance of the discovery in conserving the fat supply of the nation is pointed out by officials who declare that Germany's fat shortage is largely due to the use of fats for production of explosives,

Germany has long since been forced to discontinue the manufacture of soap in order to conserve the fats for munitions making.

The discovery is the first to be announced by chemists working in cooperation with the council of national defense.
