Chattanooga" !"

The Manitoba Free Press, in speaking
OF Chattanooga" Lincoln j. Carter's
great play thot is to appear at the aud
itorum on Monday evening, October
3lst, has the following to say:
Chattanooga is an interesting story
more plausible than the tales melo-
dramas usually tell and it is perform
ance that everyone will enjoy. 1t was
an audience thoroughly pleased, and a
good performance punctuated with hear
tiest applause and recalls. There are
some very pretty settings, the scene o.,
the play in the sunny south giving OPP
portunity for their introduction. The
great spectacle OF the play, one which
illustrates the ingenuity and inventive
genius of Mr. Carter is that describing
a runaway locomotive dashing through
a tunnel and out into the open country
at mile minute clip. You see the
quickly changing landscape, the flying
trees and houses, an illusion so perfect
that for the time the spectator is con-
vincsd it is reality. This remarkable
realism is obtained by the use of u cine
metograph and by other devices and APP
plianees that cannot easily be described.
One can only get an adequate idea OF the
scene and its effect by seeing it-and it's
well worth seeing. Chattanooga is pre-
sented by capable actors, indeed some OF
the parts are in the hands OF really
strong players. There are some delight
ful comedy lines ard several situations
that may we'll be described as thrilling.
1t is good showand as a good show de-
serves liberal patronage"

most no interest payments for the
month, which makes the expenditures
below the average. In January the
quarterly interest will be due, which
will swell the expenditures considerably
above the average. and leave a def
cheney for that month"; notwithstanding
the revenue will probably rise to at
least $29,000.00O and possibly more.
"On the basis of this estimate Of the
secretary of the treasury, that the ex-
penditures for the present fiscal year
will be $373, COCOA little over $780,
100000 having been already expended
the average monthly expenditures for
the six months beginning January 1
will be about $2900O,000. as the expendi-
lures for the first half of the fiscal year
are considerably larger than those for
the last half, on account Of the sus-
pension of many public works in the
winter season and the large July pay
ments of liabilities Of the previous fiscal
year. There is no doubt in treasury
circles that the revenue under the new
tariff law from January 1 to July 1
will exceed in the aggregate the ex-
penditureS for the same period, not
withstanding January and possibly
April-the two months for payment Of
quarterly interest-will show a balance
on the wrong side.

ditions might change so as to render
the step unnecessary, the agents Of the
leading cotton corporations in this
state decided today to reduce wages
The cut-down will average about Il
per cent. It will take effect Jan. II,
and notices to that effect will be posted
Monday in the mills Of B. B. & R.
Knight, the Lonsdale company the
Manville, Social and other companies
controlled by the Lippitts and smaller
corporations throughout the state.
j. w. Danielson. of the Quinnebag
company, Lockwood Manufacturing
company, and other corporations with
mills in Eastern Connecticut, said the
reduction would take effect at his mills
on Jan. II, although the amount Of the
reduction had not yet been decided on.
The other Eastern Connecticut corpo-
rations will take similar action and,
While operating about two million spin
dies in this state and Massachusetts,
the earnings of between 10000 and
So, 900 operatives will be affected by this
decision Of the Providence agents.
Many firms oppose the reductions and
would have forced running shorter
hours, but they say they cannot afford
to keep up the cost Of the production
and then curtail the output when the
other mills are turning out the regular
quantity at 10 per cent less cost. The
exact amount Of the reduction is not
fixed yet, but it will be on the same
line as in other cities.
Coi. R. H. I. Goddard, in discussing
the cut-down, said: "I should have
preferred to keep the wages where they
are and run shorter hours for, say four
months. bzA as the rest decided to run
for some tie. we shall be obliged to do
the same. No doubt the first action
taken in Fall River was largely due to
Southern competition. The low wages
ard standard Of living with the longer
hours there will make it very hard for
US to compete with them. I do not
think that the cotton manufacturing
business will ever leave New England
for the South, but things will have to
equalize themselves"
Robert Knight said: eve have got
to do it to put ourselves on a level with
the other manufacturers. We are OPP
posed to 1t and do not believe it Is go
ing to better conditions very much. It
will only bring us 10 per cent nearer
the Southern manufacturers. This is
the key to the whole situation, and
where today the Southern mills are
sold up and can go on making and
selling at q profit, we are carrying
stocks, and when we sell cannot get
back a new dollar for an old one.
"The legislatures have done much
harm in the North by interfering, and
they have attempted more than they
had any business to, and a change will
have to be made in present laws or laws

begun to be felt as to sugar, and as t
wool will not be materially felt for
several months. The increased receipts
from internal revenue taxes are due
to the provisions Of the new tariff
abolishing the discount on beer stamps
and increasing the tax on cigarettes,
and to the bottling law passed by the
last congress-in connection with the
Improvement in business.
while the apparent efficiency for
the first half Of the present fiscal year
has been about $4,000, 900 (the revenue
having been nearly s15S, 00O, 900, and the
expenditures $500, 000, 000), yet it will be
observed that this would have been al
most wiped out by the s3S, 900 Of
revenue received from March 1 to July
1, from importations In excess Of the
same period Of the previous year, made
in anticipation Of the new tariff and
intended for consumption the present
fiscal year, which revenue was neces-
sarily placed to thelcredit of the last
fiscal year, but in, equity belongs to
this fiscal year. And this does not
take into account the absolute loss Of
revenue arising from anticipatory I'M
portations which the treasury has al
ready experienced and will continue
for several months to experience in
less degree"

WASHINGTON. Dec. 31.-Chairman
D1ngley, of the ways and means COM

ment Of the revenue outlook.
The revenue for December shows an
increase of more than two and a half
million dollars over that of November,
and five and three-fourths millions over
that Of September, and even exceeds
the expenditures for December nearly
one and three-fourths millions. The
official figures for December Excluding
the $31, us, 2O4 received during the
month on account Of the Pacific rail-
road sale and the $500, 900 paid out to

PROSPECT POOR.
ChoynsI1i and eKid" Mccoy May Not
Get Together.

Get Together.
CHICAGO, Dec. 31.-Parson Davies,
manager for Joe Choynski, the heavy
weight pugilist, today issued the fol-
lowing ultimatum in answer to kid"
McCoy's announcement that he would
meet the Californian at 162 pounds.
Joe Choynski will fight Kid Mccoy at
eaten weights at any place and at any
time for a pusre Of $1,000. He will
agreee to no particular weight"
Prospects for a meeting between the
two pugilists therefore are not very
bright at present. McCoy's first propo-
sition to Choynski was a meeting at
1913 pounds. He afterwards agreed to
allow Choynskf to enter the ring at 1872
bounds, but Parson Davies Will not
listen to any proposition limiting the
weight of Choynsk. Heretofore the
question of weight does not seem to
have bothered Mccoy so much" said he
today. "Why is he so particular in this
instance? He fought Creedon at catch
weights, and Dick O'Brien, and when
he promised me match with Joe after
the Long Island City match, ne said
nothing about 1872 pounds. We will not
agree to pull the fight off at Carson
City, just to please Dan Stuart. That
is too far away and we won't postpone
the match until next summer, either,
just to please Mccoy and Dan Stuart"

TRACTION LINES ARE BLocKADED.
Many Accidents Reported, Some of
Them Serious, but Nome as
Yet Fatal.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Dec. 31-Pittsburg
and Allegheny today experienced the
most disastrous snow storm, in point Of
damage to buildings, traction lines,
wires, etc, in their history. The loss
to the Bell Telephone company in the
two cities alone will reach, it is esti-
mated, an aggregate Of $85, 900. The
prostration of their wires in Indiana,
Jefferson and Westmoreland counties
where the business Is practically at a
standstill will run the total up to $685.
900. 1t will be weeks before perfect
communication will be restored In
this city the entire police and fire alarm
wire systems are utterly useless. The
traction companies were tied up al
most completely for a good part of the
day, the Duquesne branch OF the Con-
solidated company being entirely
abandoned after about IL a. m, on &C
count of the great number of telephone
and telegraph poles, which were broken
along Forbes street.
That street for nearly two miles was
mass of broken poles and PROSTATE
wires. A large force of men are at
work endeayoring to clean the street
for traffic tomorrow. The loss to the
traction companies is estimated at $f5,~:
900. A large number of accidents are
reported and many horses were killed
by coming in contact with live wires,
but fortunately no human fatalities
occurred Nathan S. Eddy, assistant
weather observer, however, may die
from the effects of injuries received this
evening while taking the temperature
and snow fall on the top Of the govern
ment building. He fell from the wealth.
er gauge building to a room ten feet
below and from there to another lower
down. The physicians say his case is
very serious.
Among others injured today were Leo
Campbell, a colored driver. The horse
he was driving was instantly killed and
Campbell was badly shocked His con-
dtion is critical. Joseph Daley, tele-
phone line man was shocked to insensi-
b;lfty and badly burned by a live wire
coiling about his body. He may die.
John GIL, telephone lineman. was
hurled sixty feet through net work
of electric light wires and severely in
jured.
The loss to the two cities cannot be
estimated tonight. but it will reach
away into the thousands. More than
1900 men and 375 teams are hard at
work clearing the streets.
Many of the wires east are down
as a result of the heavy fall Of snow.
The reports show that the wires as far
east as Altoona on the Pennsylvania
have succumbed to the weight of the
snow and ice combined, and between
some points not a single wire was left
on the poles.

SALVADOR UPRISING.
Discomfort Has Been Spreading for
Some Time.

Some Time.
NEW YORK, Dec. 31.-Advices from
San Salvador have for some time re-
fected a critical condition Of public
opinion, but there has been no indica-
ton that it was SO serious as to make
necessary the presence Of a United
States Warship at La Libertad. Discon-
tent has been steadily spreading since
President Gutierrez sent a special en-
voy to Guatemala to make apology for
the invasion of Guatemala by Jose
Leon Castillo and his followers during
the recent revolution. In the event of
an uprising in Salvador the prime NOV
er will probably be Gen. Tomas Rega-
ladO, who bitterly opposes the rule OF
President Gutierrez, and who Is re-
garded as q candidate for the presi-
dency next term. Gen. Regalado was
dismissed from the army Of Salvador
for aiding Gen. Castillo to cross the
frontier in Guatemala and capture Chi
qumala.
Another cause for discomfort Is that
owing to the depleted condition Of the
treasury the president has been COM
PEELED to suspend many Sinecure offices
and place certain officers on half pay.
These have become enemies Of the gov
eminent and Joined the opposition.
Revolution now will mean ruin to Sal
vador's hope Of securing a loan of $780,
600 gold to establish the gold standard.
Such a change could not be made If
there should be an uprising.
It is not thought likely that former
President Carlos Ezeta Is taking part
in the agitation against the govern
ment. He is considered politically dead
Gen. Regalado was one Of his principal
commanders in former rebelltons.
