Walters Rclease Probable.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-Early last De-
cember congress called for the correspond
ence that the state department. had had IN
reference to the Waller case, but so far
no response has been made by the exccu-
tive. 1t Is believed that the delay has been
caused by u desire of the state department.
To practically close up the incident before
making ita subject of reply, and as 1t is
now expected that the correspondence will
be sent in very soon, it Is consequently as
sumed that some satisfactory understand
ing has been reached with the French
government by which the way has been
opened for the Release OF che prisoner.

blower making Crookes tubes out of or

of different degrees were created in the
different tubes, which, by the way, were
made complete in nine minutes, and at a
total cost Of about so cents each.
Edison, In relating 1t, said he did not

He did not measure IL. TIL fact of the

tory that they did not stop for the details,
which could be ascertained easily enough
after the first rush was over.

NOW FOR A NATAT0RlUM.
Stockholders of the Company Met Yesterday
and Took Encouraging Action

The stockholders of the natatorium met
! in, the parlors of the Commercial club
yesterday afternoon at o'clock for the
purpose of organization.
On motion of A. j. Smith II. H. MaberA
ry was elected president and Sam Adler
secretary.
Mr.. G. S. Penley stated that $4,000 in
shares of 800 each had been subscribed,
and also that several propositions had
been made to lease lots for the building
for ten years; that it would require $751;
900 to erect the building according to
specifications two stories high, and s12.-
900 for one story that his company was
willing to take $4,000 of the stock and re-
duce the building to one story.
Mr.. Rhodes said that he was opposed
to leasing a lot for the building; that it
was a matter of investment, and sug-
gested that lot be bought outright. Mr.
Rhodes suggestion was sustained by
several of the stockholders.
Mr. Bowron stated that it was his in
formation that subscribers could only
take one share of stock, and If this rule
was not imperative he was willing to in
crease his stock.
Mr. Penley said that the object of re-
stricting the stock to one share to each
stakeholder was for the purpose of OBJ
tanning a larger number of stockholders,
which would lend more interest to the en-
terprise, but that the ruling was not i'm
perative.
1t was then moved that the stockhold-
ers split the shares and take $50 more.
Mr.. Maberry said that he had sufficient
confidence in the enterprise to take five
more shares; that he believed 1t a good
investment and something the city need
ed.
On motion committee, consisting of N.
L. Miller, Eugene Enslen. H. b. Gray, G..
S. Penley, b. II. Armstrong and H. H.
Mayberry, was selected to solicit sub
scrlption with the purpose of buying the
lot and erecting the building thereon.
1t was also moved that committee
consisting of r. N. Rhodes, Caldwell

be appointed to select a location and as
certain prices for same.

politan play The managers have be-
slowed a care upon the scenery and prop
critics. to say nothing of their selection
of cast. rarely displayed in a travelling
company. The large audience last even
ing and the enthusiasm which 1t dis
played throughout showed that 1t
stamped this endeavor of d. w. Truss &
Co. with their approval Mr.. Albert Hart,
in the part of the impecunious regent,
was a decided hit. He was inimitable
in acting, songs and dances, with deep,
sonorous voice His Is a difficult part to

creditably.
The company in its entirety is superior
in every respect to any ever in this city,
and the continued crowded houses attest
the appreciation of our people. The
scenery Is the most gorgeous that money
canepurchase, and If there. is anything in
the royal palace at Bangkok not repre-
scented on the stage no one has missed 1t.
Tap chorus is composed of the prettiest
faces known to the profession, and the
many fauitless voices carry the opera
with freshness seldom found In COM
panles where 50 much care Is observed
In selecting principals.
