LES HUGUENOTS.
Tho Juch Opera Company at the Academy
~ Last Night.

ess'-t -'ia'e
What may be termed Meyerbeer's trio
of most popular operas are Robert le
Diable, Prophete, and Huguenots. and
the composer in the last-named reaches,
perhaps, bis highest development OF
dramatic intensity and his fullest reali-
cation OF harmony. Les Huguenots
combines in great measure the
antitheses Of Robert 10 Diable, with
the more majestic fervor of Prophete,
and in both lyric and histrionic effects
illustrates the transition state between
the Italian school and the more intellec-
tual school Of Wagner. Its faithful IN
terpretation involves most exacting and
artistic demands upon ochestra, chorus,
and soloist, and such Interpretation was
gwen as far rs stage facilities would
permit TO brilliant audience at Mozart
Academy last night by the Emma Juch
Grand English Opera Company. Miss
,Juch was OF course cast for Valentine, q
role calculated 10 tax the cultivation and
natural qualities of her voice to the ut
most. OF Miss Juch as an artistic little
remains TO be added to the enco-
miums passed upon her by the most
competent musical critics in the country.
As Valentine she was fully up to the
highest expectations OF her audience,
and her timbre. which is thoroughly
soulful. was especially effective in her
duet with Marcelle in the third act and
her impassioned scene with Raoul in the
last act.
The Raoul Of Mr.. Charles Hedmonds
was feryent and finished piece of act
ing. and in the lower and middle register
he gave some beautiful tones. His high
notes. however, led to the conclusion
that he was suffering from a slight cold.
The Marcelle Of Mr.. Franz Vetter was
grandly sustained from the beginning to
the end of the opera both as lyric and
dramatic effort, and as regards his work
the audience was especially receptive,
while Mr.. Pier Belasco gave q strong
rendition OF st. Bris
Miss Carlotta Maconda. as Marguerite
de Valois, made n most charming i'm
preston, and her execution of the
difficult and horid vocalization in the
second act, in solo, as well as
concerted music, was one OF the
most appreciated features of the per-
formance. Mr.. Leo Stormont as Conte
de Nevers was somewhat disappointing in
the first act, but came out grandly both
in acting and in singing in his last scene,
and Miss Jessica dc Vernet gave most
acceptable Interpretation OF Urbano. She
has a remarkably sweet voice and sings
without the least effort. The chorus and
orchestra were full and beautifully train
cd, and all of the minor parts were most
acceptably presented.
At the matinee to-day Der Freischutz,
which has always been favorite in Rich
mond, will be rendered, and tonight the
FLYING Dutchman will be put on with
great scenic effect. Those that heard
Miss Juch's superb voice last night and
witnessed the evident Identification of
the whole troupe with the rapid move
ment of Les Hugenots will hardly fail
to witness these two renditions.

Their Sentence of Death Sustained by the

IBy teierraph 20 the Dispstch.1

NY telegraph 70 tne Dlspsicn-l
WASHINGTON, ID. c., November "a
In the Supreme Court of the United
States to-day Justice Gray announced
the decision of the court in the case OF
the Nsvassa rioters who are under SEN
tence Of death in Baltimore for murder
committed on the Island of Nsvassa. IN
the Caribbean Sea. in 1889, where they
were employed 10y q Baltimore firm in
working guano-beds. The case was
brought to the Supreme Court on an ap-
peal, the question raised involving the
jurisdiction of the United States over
the island. The Court decided that the
United States has jurisdiction over the
island and afirms the decision OF the
lower court Under this decision the
men under sentence will be exc
cuted, unless contrary executive ac-
ton is taken. In its decision
the Court sustains the ground taken
by the counsel of the United States that
the act of Congress passed many years
ago providing that Guano Islands taken
possession of by citizens of the United
States and worked by them may be
placed under the jurisdiction of the
country by presidential proclamation ;
that the laws OF the United States re-
specting crimes committed on the high
seas are applicable to such islands, and
that offenders shall be tried at the port
to which they are first brought
Three of the men are sentenced to
Lang. Their counsel announce that an
appeal for executive clemency will now
be made.

oldest and largest bituminous coal firms

gregating sl60. 900 were entered by the
Central Bank this morning and all the
property of the firm has been levied upon
by the Sheriff to satisfy these claims.
The Liabilities are estimated at 800, 900
the assets ut about $500, 900. No state
ment has yet been made, but one is
promised at once. The failure was not
unexpected, and it is claimed was not the
result OF present financial conditions.
The firm has been carrying large
amount of paper, and for two months il
has been known that they were about 10

Thomas Fawcett, is president Of the
Central Bank, but the failure will have
no effect upon that institution, as it is
amply protected. The failure is at
tributed to long-continued depression oi
