said ." wish to apologize for the hurried and per-

may justify the criticism of friends of the press.
But there was no intention whatever of any disre-
spect. and nothing could have been further from
my thoughts and feelings. l sincerely regret any
misunderstanding that may have occurred, and
trust il may not have any effect in diminishing the
fund being raised" A Committee on Amusements
was then appointed, to which was referred the let
ters from theatrical managers offering benefits The
