ROME, April lS.-Cable TO New
York Herald: After four yeans'
steady work a Roman architect has
just finished plans for the most ex-
traOrdinary theatre ever projected.
II is PARK and opera house COM
bined, so that horses and carriages
may reach the door OF every private
box, or be driven among fountains
or stately ganiens on the roof.
When the Duke Of TOrlonia was
in Rome he urged the creator Of the
wonderful scheme to continue his
labors, and suggested that the great
building might be erected in this
city as a crowning of architectural
development. Rome is now bank
ruFt and there Is no hope Of ever
seeing the building built in Italy.
The architect proposes TO lay his
designs before the officials having
charge of the WORLDS Fair in Anne
rica. He is backed by the leading
men of Rome. The whole work can
be carried out In Italy at a cost Of
l., 900, 600 francs, but the difference
In the price Of labor and material on
the Western Continent will swell
this aggregate enormously.
This vast edifice would contain
so, people and comfortably seat
80, 900. There are $50 dressing rooms
for performers The stage is l95 feet
wide by 30 deep.

showing the number Of men en-
ployed 10y the day or month, by the
mile, trip, piece, under contract or
on commission. Also what prOpOr-
ton Of the year the men are en-

As to wages, il is found that over
% per cent. are paid at rates rang
ing from 81 to 81 per day. The av-
erage daily rate Of all employees paid
by specific time on sixty roads is
Sl.6i, yet nearly 81 per cent Of the
whole number received less than
the average rate Of all, while only
about 50 per cent received above the
average for all.
1t is also shown that Of the whole
number of employees, I01 ,9J5 earn
less than 500 per year; 1881 earn
from 500 to S2OD per year, and q, :
5lI earn from 500 TO $500 yer year.
The average earnings on all the sixty
roads per year is S243, although less

The point Of order was raised by
Kerr that the committee on war
claims had no jurisdiction over the

Thomas. offered resolution that
the bill be reported back % Ehe
House with recommendation that it
be recOmmitted, with Instructions
that the committee on war claims
inquire into the loyalty Of each
claimant.
Cannon, after hearing Thomas,
said the House dare not pass the bill
until thoroughly invt stignted.
Buchanan { y. j. denounced the
ittempt to drag through corrupt
with ircnrrupt eases.
HOuk Tenn. said it was not so
much the cOF.lptncss rs a desire to

This pEecipitated a wordy war, in
which Buchanan, Houk, Kerr anc
Others took part.
StOckdale Miss. argued that the
fact that a man signs vouchers for

ate army was no proef Of disloyalty.
II he had not signed, his property
would have been taken anyway.
