A FAKE MELBA INTERVIEW.
The SOngstress Quoted on Local Mat
ters-Shc Was Not Seen.

Yesterday the Sentinel printed half
column, in which Nellie Melba was quoted
as telling what she had done since she
was here last spring aud What she intended
to do for the next year or more. In the
alleged interview she speaks of the last
May festival as "the most successful fes-
tival I ever heard" and then goes on to
tell OF what she considers one of the most
pleasant experiences of her life. zone of
my pleasant experiences was at Aiinneap-
Oils she is made to say, where the
students of the State University occupied
the front of the stage and introduced me
with the college yell and shower OF
roses. There 1 sang in the hall in which
Mr.. Harrison was nominated In 1892
Then again these words are put into her
mouth: AZ enjoyed my visit to indianapolis
last May and was pleased with my recep-
ton. This city appreciates good music and
the audience is critical: therefore the favor
able reception fattered me- 1 very much
regretted the fact that through some mis-
understanding the chorus was given TO I'M

if it were present This was untrue, and

1t was. no do,bt. pleasant surprise
what she said about that little difficulty
over the rehearsals last spring. The inter-
view closes with this expression: My IA
vorite character? 1t is Juliet in Romeo
and Juliet.
The really surprising part of this interview
is the fact that at $50 Sunday night Melba
had retired to her room and refused to
see reporters. Her manager also informed
a Journal reporter that she never saw re-
porters, but that IT, the reporter desired
he would call Miss Bennett Melbas COM
RAMON. who was authorized to speak for
her and would gladly talk. This kind offer
was declined and consequently no interview
was had. After IL O'Clock. however. the
Sentinel reporter reached the hotel and the
next morning his paper had a half-column
interiew. I'm which Madame Melha is quoted
as saving things she did not say. Despite
her fatigue" the reporter says, Madame
Melba replied to card and met the Sem
tinel representative in the parlors OF the
hotel a short time after her arrival" She
reached the hotel early in the evening and
the Sentinel representative did not call
there until after IL O'Clock. two hours after
she had retired.

throughout the association territory. There
was not much confidence expressed in the
situation by the roads running out OF Chi

around all day to the general effect that not
only had the rates not been restored, but
that the situation was worse than ever No
details were obtainable, but all of the lines
were asserting that cut rates We're still In
existence, and the fact that no figures could
be obtained did not cause any of them to
lose faith in the rumors of decentralization
that were current.
