HERR MOST AN ACTOR.
He Rehearses His Part in the Play -sTh
Weavers."


Weavers."
NEW YORK, Oct. 4=Herr Most is soon
to make his appearance in play. The
play is called die Weber" or in English,
.sIhe Weavers," and is by a no less IA
nous playwright than Gerhard Haupt-
mann, the author of @Hannele." Most
was yesterday rehearsing his part wit b
the other actors It is a Socialist play of
the most radical sort The scene is laid
IN Silesia during the bread famine of
lS46, and depicts successful uprising of
the starving weavers against the police
and their employers. 1t is to be given
one performance At the Thalia Oct g. and
will be repeated in Newark, Brooklyn
and perhaps in a few other cities.
The role taken by Herr Most is that Of
Old Baument, aged weaver who is in
the thick of the uprising When COS
tuned for the part Most will wear long
gray beard and totter on a cane. Being
suit Of rusty black, with frock coat and
light slOuch hat, there was nothing in
the appearance of the noted anarchist to
suggest aged weaver, nor did he see
tit 10 simulate the bearing Of an old man.
The rehearsal, which took place on the
stage of the Thalia theatre, seemed to
be held chiefly for the purpose of dis
covering just how many Of their lines
the players knew. It showed that there
will have to be good deal of studying
during the next eight days. Herr Most
was sadly deficient IN his lines which
may account for his failure to roar as
loudly he had been expected.

ing There Was No Cause For 1t.
LONDON. Oct. 4=The English news
papers have apparently recovered from
the bad scare caused some of them by
the hasty calling Of a cabinet council
yesterday the afternoon news papers
were seriously apprehensive of war with
France. Now they are unanimous in ex-
pressing the opinion that there is not the
slightest cause of anxiety to a serious
dispute with France, and it seems TO be
admitted that the ca binet council which
meets today will not be called upon to
decide anything more serious than pro
lection of British interests in China The
cabinet council will decide the question
as to whether or not British troops will
be sent Immediately to treaty ports of
China.
The cabinet council met today Most
of the ministers were present Sir Will
lam Harcourt, chancellor of the ex-
chequer, present.
1t is announced upon authority that
the cabinet council, after discussing the
state of affairs in China, decided 10 send
troops tc that country in order to protect
British interests. 1t is also probable that
additional ships will be sent to strength
en- the feet in Chinese waters under the
command of Admiral Freemantle.
II is also said that in consequence of
today's meeting of the cabinet, the Brit
isa legation at Pekin, will shortly be
