The town is full OF the company
detectives with a couple Of Pinkerton

taken was large, though it is placed by
the Burlington officials at only $4,000.
The Abba state bank was to have
shipped $4,000 in currency on the train.
and it is believed the robbers were after
it, but the money missed the train.
1t now develops that there were four
robbers instead OF two, but two of them
got on the front Of the mail car next to
the engine and could not effect an en-

New YORK, Jan. IA -Massenet's Ma
non will be the quasi-novel:y of the
week at the Metropolitan opera house,
and its performance Wednesday will
serve as the American debut OF Sybil
SaDderaon. the young Californian prima
donna. Although the opera has been
seen here, this will be its first repro.
sentstion in French and with recitstivea
which Massenet has written to replace
the spoken dialogue of the original when
the work is given upon large stats.
Meilhac and Gille have made some few
changes in the librstto from the scenario
laid down by Abbe Provost on his ro-
nance, Mancn Lascaut. The work ia in
five acts and six tableaux.
In the first act Manon is seen in the
courtyard OF hotel at Amens. She is
on her way to convent, and 10 to b G
met at the old French city by her cousin.
While waiting st the hotel she meets
De Bretigny and Dss Greux. She is
but girl. The esyety of the young
officers and their companions, Foussette,
Rostte and Javette, is infectious, and
she finishes by acceding to Des Grisux's
proposition to elope with him to Paris.
Next Manon is seen in little apart.
ment in the French capital. She is in
love with Des Grieux, but De Bretigny
offers her q more luxurious setting for
her beauty. and, learning that her lover
is to be carried off by order of his father,
she is next seen as queen OF fete with
De Bretigny by her side. For all her
present wealth her thoughts still turn
to Des Grieux, and when she hears her
former lovers father tell De Bretigny
that his son has gone into the church
and that he is to deliver an Grafton that
very evening at Sarbonns, she feels her
old love reawaken, and steals away to
the psrlor of the college of st. Sulpice.
There she meets Des Grieux and, though
casting her off at first, the young man
finally succumbs to the wilss OF tn q
siren and fees in her company.
In the fifth scene the young couple are
seen in the gambling saloon of the
Hotel de Tranaylvanis. To satisfy
Msnon's csprices Dss Grieux has begun
to play reoklessly and being caught
with marked cards he is arrested with
the young woman.
The last scene takes place on the road
to Havrs. There Des Grieux is await
ing the arrival of Manon. who has been
condemned to transportation to Florida.
He manages to secure a last interview
with her and overcome with shame and
grief and suffering she dies in her
lovers arms. Miss Sanderson made her
first debut in the role about esvsn years
ago at the Hague.

SPEAKER LYNCH FALLS DOWN,
Queer Request of a San Ber-

Asks to Be Released From His Per-

Tho County Committee Discuss tho M lat
ter and WIN Take Final Action
on Saturday.

Special to THE HERALD.
SAN BERNARDINo, Jan. IA. - Speaker
Lynch of the assembly this morning
telegraphed the secretary of the Re-
publican county central committee, ask
ing that he be released from the in
structons given at the time OF his nom-
instion, pledging him to vots for Per-
kina for Unitsd States senator.
That convention, 40 we'll as the one
held earlier in the year, was enthusiast
ticslly for Perkins. The most rigid in.
stguotions were given to the county's
representatives in this legislature. not
only in the assembly but in the senate
as well. to vote for Perkins. A. resolu-
ton, asking Senator Seymour, who was
q hold.ovsr, to cast his vote and use his
influence for Perkins' reelection, was
carried, but TO small purpose. Senator
Perkins is unquestionably the choice Of
four-tifths of the Republicans OF this
county.
A preliminary meeting of the county
committee was held today, and atten ded
by 27 out OF II members. The MON bers
discussed the request Of Speaker L,noh
and it wsa almost the unanimous opinion
that they had no right to recall instruc.
tions which were given by a delegate
convention, while even if it were con-
coded that the committee had the right
to change the instructions they showed
no disposition to do 30. but rather to
endorse Perkina again for the place.
AS there was no quorum st the m set
ing. and it was not ponsible to get 6
quorum today, the committee decided
to hold meeting next Saturday. when
an attempt will DO made to get full
attendance, and the committee will then
decide finally upon Mr.. Lynch s request.
However, if the opinion OF those who
were present is any index to the feeling
OF the committeeman in general, Mr..
Lynch will not be released from his in
structions, if indeed they are not re-
peated. Tho Republicans of the county
will not be surprised if even then
their aasem blymsn bolts and votes for
some other candidate, but they do not
propose that he shall do 30 with their
! consent.
