Magnetization, anomalous Hall effect, thermoelectric power, magnetoresistance, and resistivity of Sn_1-x-y-zGe_xMn_yGd_zTe (x = 0.039÷0.597, y = 0.077÷0.125, z = 0.0014÷0.028) mixed crystals were studied over the temperature range 4.2-300 K. The ferromagnetic order with Curie temperature 18-24 K was revealed.
