LONDON. Sept 1.-THE theatrical

the sensational announcement to-day of

Henry Irving confesses himself de-
spondent as to the future OF English
drama. He says: The music halls are
unduly overlapping the theatres, and
many theatres are taking on the vulgar
ways of the halls"
During his vacation at Gairloch Mr..
Irving unbosomed himself on this sub
ject. What is wanted. he thinks, is
state or munic' pal aid and recognition.
/ The theatre Is or might be great edu-
cative and moral power, and, in diff
ferent senses, 1t stands greatly In need
of municipal recognition"
Mr. Irving has repeatedly discussed
this proposition with Mr.. Gladstone, who
has often sat with him In the wings OF
the Lyceum stage while the play pro-
ceeded. Ten years ago Mr.. Gladstone
did not think the British nation would
ever grant such recognition to the
drama, but, quite recently, before the
present calamity overlook him, the eN-
Premier expressed the view that the
mind OF the English electorate was UNI
dergoing a great change in regard to the
theatre. and that sooner than some
thought 1t might become a national in
stitution."
Irvings usual Autumn tour begins
shortly in Edinburgh, and will occupy
his time pretty well up to Christmas.
In January he opens the Lyceum season
with Comyns Cars dramatic version OF
king Arthur which. with its wealth
