URGING BOND ISSUE.
Secretary Gage Goes Before t"9
Senate Committee.

Washington, May 3.-The senate COM
mittee on finance resumed it's sitting
at 1890 o'clock today, hearing Secre-
tary Gage on the necessity for includ-
ing in the war revenue bill, authority
for the issuance of bonds. The secre-
tary supplied the committee with all
the information in his possession as to
the cost of the war up to date and also
the best estimates obtainable of future
expenses.
Secretary Gage told the committee
that the best estimates obtainable, in
dictate that for the next two months,
the war will increase the governmental
expenditure about $50. coo, 000 By that
time the entire amount in the treasury
with the exception of the gold reserve
would be exhausted and $50, 900, 900 Of
the reserve also taken.
Mr.. Gage also stated it to be his opin-
ion that the revenues would decrease
on account of the war.In view of these
facts he considered some authorization
for the issue of bonds necessary. He
said no estimate had been made of the
cost of the war for a year hence as no
one could say how long it would con-
tinue.

"1rNDER THE RED ROBE. d"

1t is a genuine pleasure to announce
to our amusement-lOving public, that
New Yorks greatest and most brilliant
dramatic success, Under the Red
Robe" which ran two seasons at the
Empire Theatre, will be the attraction
here on Monday, October 3, at the
Grand Opera House. The company,
headed by the distinguished romantic
actor, William Morris, is an unusually
strong one, selected in. New York by
Julius Calm. All the atmosphere OF
Stanley Weyman's famous book is
faithfully preserved and the persons OF
the story seem to have walked directly
from the printed pages to the foot
lights. The splendid Interpretation OF
"Under the Red Robe" by this COM
pany has been enthusiastically admired
everywhere, and it is undoubtedly the
most popular Of all the romance plays
seen in England or the United States
for the past twenty years. The origi-
nality of it's love story is most refresh
ing. The tide Of sentiment being con-
trolled by the young woman in the
case, instead of a man, and the charm
Of all its brilliant scenes lying in the
adventurous and swaggerly cavaliers Of
the time in which it was written. I'm
der the Red Robe" has held it's owl
against all newcomers in the romantic
field and it is likely to remain the mos
important and fascinating historical
play for a long time to come.
