A Misunderstanding Between the
Opera People and the Op-

Causes A Delay of Twenty Minutes
in the Performance Of
the Rose of CASTLE.
An Opinion from Attorney General
Spencer Anent the Wool
Market.
The Other Side.

tFrOm Wednesdays Daily.1
1t is to be regretted that the performance
at the Atheneum last evening should have
been marred by the difficulties between the
homogeneous of the company and build
ing. The following is given as the opera
house side of the dispute. and is reproduced
for that purpose:
"The facts in regard to the engagement
Of the Darlington Opera company, are as
follows: The advance agent, Mr.. Wake
field, called on Mr.. Wakeman and wanted
guarantee of $500 for the appearance of
the company in this city. Mr.. Wakeman
told him he could give no such guarantee,
and that it was useless to attempt it. Mr..
Wakefield then made a proposition to re.
main a day or two in the city, get up a
subscription list and agreed that he would
obtain on that list the amount of $3.50. Mr..
some difficulty in collecting all of it, even
if he should succeed in getting the $3.50
subscribed and that he could not
take any chances on collecting the same.
Mr.. Wakefield then said that he would be
willing to take the risk that the number
Of seats subscribed for would be taken.
With that agreement Mi. Wakeman signed
the contract for their appearance in the
city. The subscribers were called upon,
some of them several times, in the effort
to collect the same, but thirty of them
amounting to $40, refused to take the
tickets. Before the commencement of the
opera Mr.. Wakeman called the manager,
Mr.. Darlington, into the Office and stated
to him the facts concerning the subscrip-
tiOn list; that he had been unable to COL
4 lect$40 Of the $3.50 and also stated the agree
ment with Mr.. Wakefield in regard to
the $3.50 and told him that under the agree
ment it would be necessary to add the
$3.50 subscribed on the paper to the
gross receipts in making up the $500
guaranteed and if that was not sat
isfactory they would lave to cancel the
performance. Mr.. Darlington said that the
advance agent should not have made any
such arrangements, but finally agreed to
go on with the performance under that
agreement When he came to settle at
the end Of the second act. he went back OF
his agreement and tried to force Mr..
Wakeman into taking the deficit of the
subscription list, in amount $40. Mr..
Wakeman refused so to do. Mr.. Wake
man offered to place thirty subscriptions
in the hands of an attorney for collection
for the credit of the company. The blame
of the delay rests wholly with Mr.. Car
ringtOn who at first refused to 20 on witt
the performance as he had agreed: Mr.
Darlington has received in cash $3.50 ant
has the balance of the subscription list
which amounts to $40, to Lis credit fo]
collection or not, as ha sees fit.

The Wool Market Question.

The city council, at a recent session, ap-
pointed a committee to investigate the law
passed last winter in relation to establish
ing wool markets. The committee found
the sentiment in favor of establishing one
at this place, in case it could be done with
out the city's assuming too much RESPONSE
bility. The law was Investigated and
found to be so constructed as to make it
necessary for all applications to be filed
with the commissioner of agriculture be-
fore May LIST. Accordingly, the committee
forwarded an application making Bis
marck a wool market, but upon condition
that the city should assume no responsible
ity. An acknowledgment of the appIica-
sion has been received, accompanied by the
following opinion by the encouragement:
In nv opinion, section 1 house bill No. q
page 48, popular edition, laws 1891, means
that the city shall provide or may provide
a building as described therein free to
those who store wool in said building; and
while 1t does not provide in just so many
3 words. who is to take charge of the wool,
the evident intention is that the city must
furnish and pay a man to receive, mark
and take care of the wool stored until it is
sold or removed, within the dates provided
therein; and in case OF any losses the city
would have to make it good to the owner.
The benefit to be derived by the city in do
ing this is the natural profits arising in
having a market Of this kind within its
limits; the building, storage, marking, etc.,
must all be furnished tree to the owner Of
said wool by the city complying with this
act. Yours truly,
I. -, G. A. NJ. SPENCER,
D Attorney General.
The committee were unanimous in their
decision not to take the responsibility in
the name of the city. 1t Is however being
considered by some private parties and
they may decide to establish the market.
