The melodrama The Crimes Of London"
with which the season was opened at the

sented, and the performance taken alto

Where all do so well, individual mention is
hardly necessary. Mr.. W. c. Donaldson
may be particularly commended for his per-
Torrance OF Ned Stsrleigh, and Miss Josie
Croker for her acting in the role of Neil
Tatters. Charles Mcdonald, \. Beverly
and J. H. Nicholson are perfectly at home

What Charlie Foster Knows About Ohio
Politics-The Tariff Issue.

NEW YORK, March 7.-Ex-Governor
Chas. Foster of Ohio, who is visiting this

safe for the Republican party, and more
than safe for it on the tariff question.
The party gained by desertion from the
Democrats, who, in Ohio, were at least
one-third of them protection.
lists. He considered that the tariff
question would very greatly influence the
campaign in every way, as the selection
OF Speaker Carlisle had frightened from
the Democracy every Protectionist, and
had practically given maiorities TO the
Republicans. OF Democratic candidates
first, in his opinion, stood Payne but
Mcdonald was also favored, although
not so generally or SO warmly.
Sherman would be the Republican
choice, if possible, but their delegation
would go unpledged TO the convention,
anu the State would Loyalty act as the
party thought best As TO Arthur he

of his course Of action and of his official
history. Yes, there might be an Eastern
candidate; Ohio did not seem likely to
give President to the Union this time,
but she was soundly Republican, and
would have her influence in the campaign
On the whole, Ex-Governor Foster did
not think matters were advanced far

Ohio had her choice Sherman would be
President. There were questions that
would affect results, but none Of such Vi
tai importance as the tariff. The liquor
question was also Of importance, though
not TO so great an extent as formerly.
But in Ohio the Republicans had clear
majority, and must win on any issue and
almost with any candidate. The South
ern question, that of protection OF voters
in their rights, was Of some note, but it
could not be said to have the Importance
Of an issue. 1t might however, become
an important factor in the campaign con-
