THE DRAMATIC FESTIVAL.
The Largest Audience of the Week Witness
the Presentation of "OtheIlo.p
special to the INDIANAPOLIS Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
CINCINNATI, May 3.-The largest audience
of the season assembled to see the "Othello"
performance tonight, every seat being
filled and hundreds standing up fully
5000 people being present. 1t was
Clara Morris's first appearance, and
reception. Her reputation as the greatest
emotional actress of the day doubtless had
much to do with the tumultuous applause
her performance of Emelia was greeted with,
but to the minds of many it did not equal
chat of Miss Marie Prescott and Others who
have essayed the role. She received the
usual elegant floral offerings.
The honors of the evening were early
carried off by Lawrence Barrett, whose
Iago was a marvelously intelligent and
forclble presentation. Miss Anderson's Des-
demona was surprisingly good, and Mr. Nc
Culloughs Othello was marked by number
of original innovations in business and
reading The quarrel scene between him
and Barrett aroused the only spontaneous
and long continued outburst of enthusiasm
that has yet marked any of the perform
ances. To be sure, there have been repeated
rounds of applause and calls before the
curtain, but very little wild and unrestrained
enthusiasm. The scenic effects tonight were
very fine, and elected much applause. In
an artistic sense the scenery could not we'll
be surpassed.
The Misses Vajen and Miss Martindale, of
Indianapolis, are among to-day's arrivals.
Congressman Lamb, of Terre Haute occu-
pied a box tonight with Mile. Rhea and
other celebrates, and it is yet a mystery
how he got in.
Mrs Senator Mcdonald was given an elegant
reception tonight by Mrs. Colonel Mclean
at the residence of her father, Mr.. Kilbreath
There was large attendance of prominent
society people, and the occasion was exceed
ingly fashionable. At the festival, Mrs. Nc

ducement to be truthful? Rerdell had con-
fessed everything, and he (Bliss) trusted his
punishment would be lighter than the
others. He would meet his punishment and
pass into obscurity. But there was no OBJ
scurity or oblivion for the others, hence they
sought to color the truth. Walsh's testimo-
ny was quoted at length. The defense as
serted that Walsh had animus against Brady,
said Bliss, because he (Walsh) had suit
against him for large sum of money.
Certainly it was not then to Walsh's interest
to shut up his debtor in the penitentiary.
Commenting upon the failure of the defense
to produce the letter-book or index Bliss de-
clared that the jury must assume that the
index would reveal the absence of RerdelPs
letter to Brady which had been put in evil
dence by the government During the af-
ternoon Bliss read copious extracts from the
record of the evidence and when the court
adjourned had not concluded his address.
AT meeting of the counsel for the defense
in the star-route case this evening, it was de-
cided that at the conclusion of Colonel Blisss
opening address the defense should submit
the case without further argument.

Yesterday morning in ward "a of Bellevue
Hospital, leaving twelve bank books, show

banks to the amount OF about $4,000. He
was received into the hospital on Saturday af-

and no home. His last place of residence is
unknown to the hospital officials. He kept
his bank books rolled up in piece of paper

THE HILL INVESTIGATION.
Mr.. Foiger Refuses to Remove Mr.. Alexan-
der from the Committee.


WASHINGTON, May 3.--Secretary Folger to-
day addressed the following letter to Mr.
Murch, in regard to the pending investigation
of the charges against Supervising Architect
Hill.
have the honor to acknowledge the recent
of your communication of the 1st inst, in which
you object to placing Mr.. Alexander upon the
commtIee investigating affairs in the supervis-
ing architects office in the Treasury Department.
One objection is that his absence for ten or
twelve days Will delay the investigation
that length of time. 1 do not think 1t need do
that, as the testimony will be taken by a steno-
grapher. The other twomembers of the committee
can proceed in taking testimony. which can
be read by Mr.. Alexander on his return, with
the same or nearly the same effect as If he were
present and heard it delivered orally.
Another objection Is that the Fifth
Auditor of the Treasury is subordinate to ASSIST
ant Secretary French. That is an error; the
Auditors of this Department not subordi-
dinates only of the head of the departments in
no manner is the Fifth Auditor Office attached
to or under the special control of, subordinate
to either assistant secretary. Inasmuch then
as the reason of your objection fails, think the
objection must fail also. ] shall continue Mr..
Alexander upon the committee. His absence is
temporary, as have before suggested, ana need
not delay the investigation. The other two
members of the committee can start upon il at
once. would respectfully ask that you signify,
as soon as possible, when you will be ready to
proceed. Very respectfully yours.

this city from the home government with re-
gard to the extradition of any of the Irish
men now in the United States who have re-
Gently been accused of crime in Great
Britain.
The law which will regulate the extradi-
ton proceedings in the cases of the persons
mentioned, should their surrender be de-
manded, is contained in article 10 of the

1t is agreed that the United States and her Bri-
tannic Majesty shall, upon mutual requsition by
them or their minister's officers or authorities,

der OF assault with intent to commit murder or
piracy, or arson, robbery, or forgery, or

within the jurisdiction of either, shall seek

done upon such evidence of criminality as, ac-
cording to the laws of the place where the fugt-

The Mexican Government Pushing Forward
Public Works.

MEXICO, May 3,-The Mexican government
made contract with Buette, Case & Co., of
France for harbor Improvements at Vera
Cruz, the northwest breakwater to be conf
pleted in five years, and all the works to be
finished in twelve years. The government
will pay the contractor 1O047, 900 Mexican
silver dollars in weekly payments OF $4,000
as the work proceeds.
The Official Journal, in connection with
the proposed foreign loan, defends the vigor
GUS financial policy of the government
maintaining that it would be false economy
to suspend productive public works, espe-
cially the Tehuantepec railroad, which is of
national importance and making satisfactory
progress since the government undertook its
construction.

THE AUSTRALIAN MAIL.
The Importance to American Commerce of
Continuing Present Contracts.

The Importance to American Commerce of
Continuing Present Contracts.
WASHINGTON May 3.-Robert J. Creighton,
special postal commissioner of New Zealand,
had an interview with the Secretary of State
to-day, in which he pointed out the import
ance to American commerce of continuing
direct mail communication with New Zea-
land and Australia via San Francisco. He
says that when New Zealand inaugurated the
existing service in 1871 the total annual trade
of the United States with Australia was
5000, 137 but it reached ST., ,13o, 969 in 1882,
an increase in eleven years of $14,-
was imported from New Zealand
and Australia. The colonially subsidized
steamships carried the United States mail to
Honolulu and the South Pacific countries
free, distance of ,230 miles, OH each out
ward voyage. This mail was heavy, weigh
ing in letters and printed matter 108 $50
pounds for the last three months of 1882
The United States charges about 500, 900 year
ly for the railroad transportation of closed
British and colonial mail across America,
and the New Zealand representative urges
that the ocean transportation of American
mail shall be taken to offset the cost of land
transportation of the colonial mail. If
land is prepared to continue the existing
ocean postal service, from which New South
Wales withdraws at the close of the present
contract. Mr.. Frelinghuysen listened to
Mr.. Creighton's statement, and promised to
give it careful consideration. A similar re-
ply was given by the Postmaster-general to
whom the matter had been fully explained
by the New Zealand agent. The officers of
the department recognize the importance of
the question to American commerce.
