we'll, and was only beaten because he was
oyermatched; Dixon received his e4oo in

Dixon, it affords me the utmost pleasure
to hand you this money. We never saw
fasrer,. manlier, gamier fight in this club
than the one you and Wallace took part in
Thursday. We shall hope to see you here

BosroN, July LIN the house to-day Re-
preventative Gould introduced substitute
resolution for the report of the bribery
committee. It declares, in part, that the
West End company's system of influence is
unparalleled in the history of legislation,
in the violation of law and subyersive of ali
honest legislation; that the evidence
showed that the company paid in the ag-
gregate $40, 600: that no legislation, predi-
Gated upon such influence, can be enacted
without making every member who votes
for it party to the corruption. A hot de-
bate followed and the house finally
adopted the committee report, l34 to 81.

Representative Adams vigorouAly Dis
sents Frsm the Majority.
WASHINGTON, July /. Representative
Adams, Of Illinois, to-day submitted :
minority report dissenting from the views
Of the majority of the committee on
judiciary upon the bill intended as substi-
tute for the senate original package bill.
To surrender the exercise of the power Of
congress to regulate commerce to the legis-
latures of several states, the report argued,
is to defeat the main purpose Of its
creation. This is the vice Of
the senate bill. It is tenfold
the vice Of the substitute. It tends to und o
the most important work that was done
when the Union was formed. Congress can
define the original package in which intoxi-
eating liquors can be imported into state.
Such legislative definition would at once
render impossible the establishment OF So
called original package saloons, the only
serious evil which can possibly arise out of
the recent decision of the supreme court.

Horde of American Players and
Theatrical Managers Now
in London, -.
Riotous Times in the italian Chamber OF
Observation-Disclosures Mention
OF Minor Matters,

LONDON, July 1.-Isaac Henderson, the
American novelist, has written q play
founded upon his well-known romance,
agatha Page" and Mr.. Beerbohm Tree
will give the first presentation of it at the
dramatic interest of "A Silent Battle" as
the play is called, is very strong, and parts
of it are particularly we'll balanced. Al
though the two most notable characters are
perhaps Agatha and Mercedes, allotted re-
spectively to Mrs. Tree and Miss Julia
Nelson, Mr.. Tree will have part which is
essentially fitted to display his peculiar tai
ent. It goes without saying that "a Silent
Battle is play of very high order. The
fact that Mr.. Tree undertakes its produc-
tion is sufficient guarantee of this. The
famous actor-manager of the Haymarket
will make professional visit to the United
States during the season of 1912.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kendall will begin their next
American engagement In New York on Go
tober 13 at the Fifth Avenue theatre with
THE Squire" This piece was Pinero's
first important success. He wrote it for the
Kendals and it has always been considered
one of the best plays in their repertoire.
Fanny Davenport writes that she can
safely promise the American public grand
dramatic novelty in the early fall in her
production of SardOu's "CleOpatra." She
says: although the play follows history
in its love story, the novel situations, de-
movements, incidents and marvels are SO
new that no one can fail to applaud writer
who can in SO thoroughly legitimate, hu-
name and unconventional manner follow
and give interest to SO hackneyed subject.
The scenes are dreams, the costuming be-
wilderino, the language sublime. I think
the entire literary world will admit with
me that Sardou's Cleopatra will add an
other legitimate play to the dramatic Ii
brary. :"
= Days company continues to do big busi-
ness as it ought. for it is by long odds the
best show in London. This week they have
been playing Nancy and Company" which
the critics prefer to Casting the Boomer
ang," while they extol the acting of the
parts with no less enthusiasm. Burr Mo
1ntosh, who made his London debut as
Tippy Brasher, the jealous but loving hus-
band, has been most warmly received and
comes in for high praise by the newspapers,
while the famous quartet, Misses Rehan
and Drew, Mrs. Gilbert and Lewis, are
treated on all sides as old friends and popu-
lar favorites. Mr.. DAILY recently gave a
supper after the performance in the famous
Beefsteak-room of the Lvceum theater,
which was attended by the swells of Bo-
hemia and other lords and gentry.
