switchmen would involve general
strike appear to have been well-ground-
ed. A carload of beef was switched
from the Lake Shore road to the Fort
Wayne road about Ii O'clock Tuesday
night, A switch engine and crew went
to receive it and the foreman ordered the
men to couple on to the beef car. This
they refused to do and they and the
other switchmen in the Fort Wayne
yards struck at midnight, The Fort
Wayne switchmen hold that the men of
the same craft belonging to the Lake
Shore road are non-union men, other
wise the cars of beef would not have
been turned over by them to the Fort
Wayne yards, therefore they declined

Mr.. Louis James is an actor of sterling merit.
In the palmy days of his career--those days
when stock companies hourished throughout
the country, and even latterly when he was
content to support some leading actor-he stood
out among the foremost of his cotempores as an
artist of unusual versatility and worth. He did
not then comfort his mouth and dig his chin into
his larynX in order to simulate the basso pro-
fundo of John Mccullough as he does now.
Nor did he then sacrifice consistency of inter-
probation for the more robust glory found in
the applause OF the gallery. His engagement
at Albaughs last week. in which he appeared
in a repertory of roles, disclosed decided de-
parture from the natural and easy style of
which he is capable, and for this reason, more
than any other, failed to attract the audiences
which he would ordinarily be entitled to. At
best, it is no easy matter to star in a line of
roles which have been given the interpretations
oil such student artists Salvini, Booth, and
Barrett, and why an actor of Mr. Jamess abili-
ties, in placing himself on basis of comparison
with Uen of this stamp, should handicap him
self by assuming mannerism foreign to his
own intelligent Judgment, can scarcely be un-
derstood by those who have seen him at his
best. OF his company the best that be
said is that Mr.. F. c. Mosey nearly divides the
honors with the star, and Miss Mabel Amberis a
leading lady of more than average abilities.
Mr.. Largdon, Of course, is what be has always
been--3 good, reliable sctor-but the balance
of the company is poor.
