Grand Opera House Pittsburg

The third eventful week at the Grand
Opera House, Pittsburg, viii be mark
ed by the revival of W. II. Cranes The
Senator OF all the plays produced
last year by the stock company The
Senator" made the most emphatic hit,
and has, therefore, been selected as the
most fitting revival of the year. The
triumph of the Grand Opera House
players in The Senator" last year can
not be forgotten, and this revival is
simply the result of hundreds of requests
that it be produced by the stock com
pany again this year. Until Mr.. James
f. Wilson played Senator Hannibal
Rivers at the Grand Opera House last
season it was thought that no actor
would ever equal Mr. Crane in the part,
but Mr.. w ilson proved that Senator
/ Hannibal Rivers was not a one man
character, and in it made the hit of his
life

The PittSbUrg Orchestra Con-
certs of Friday evening, Nov.
10Th, and Saturday after
noon, Nov. iIth.

The brilliant beginning last week of
the fifth season of Orchestra concerts in
Carnegie Music Hall, Schenley Park
Pittsburg, is sure to be carried to fur
ther point in the two that will be given
this week As viii be seen from the
list below, Mr.. Herbert's program IS d
fine one and there is the further incen
tive of the great bass singer, Mr.. David
Bispham, has few if any rivals on the
concert or operatic stage to day. 1t SC
happens that he has never been heard IL
Pittsburg with the accompaniment ofa
orchestra, his appearances heretofore
having been either in opera or song re.
cital The selections he has chosen are
those which display his lovely voice, his
sentiment and his intelligence at theil
best.
Ii was apparent at the first afternoon
concert last week that great many sub
urban people were in attendance. 1t is
in this direction that the management
of the orchestra hope to see great devel-
opment; the concerts seldom last more
than two hours and quarter, and as
! they begin at 2:15 there is. ample time
| for those living at a distance to reach
| their homes before nightfall.
There are five hundred good seats for
| the evening concerts to choose from ev
cry week and more for the afternoon con
certs The prices this season will bt
$10O $50 and $500 for the evening
| concerts and 80 cts, 70 cts and 81 for tho
| afternoon concerts Seats can be

SHUTCTlNG) THE OPEN DOOR.

The mission Of Rear Admiral Lord
harlt Bercsford to the United States
is to got the trend Of public opinion, and
especially that OF Americans interested
in commerce, as to the propriety OF a
20 numerical alliance between tho United
States and Great Britain, together with
Germany and Japan, to preserve tho
"open door" of trade in China.
France and Russia stand for the "shut
door policy, That is, they will not al
low any other nation TO trade in their
respective spheres of influence in China
any iurther than they can help. The
effect Of this policy is clearly illustrated
by Il rptort from the consul Of the Uni
ted States, Mr.. Thackara, at Havre,
France, in which he speaks of the wor-
ierful success Of loan offered in
France to- be used in building railroads
in the French colony Of Indo-China,
which lies east of Siam and south OF
China proper. Consul Thackara says:
The construction of the roads to be built
under the new loan will open up a market for
steel rails and other railroad material which
tnf rtunatcly cannot be utilized by our Amer
ican manufacturers, as, according to the terms
| of article Of the law of Dec. %, 1898, creating
| the loan, all material ecessaly for the con-
struction of the above.nenti Oned rail Dads not
! found in Indo-Chiua must be of French origin
and must be carried in vessels flying the French
flag.
That illustrates the difference between
the open door and the shut door of trade.
France has shut up her Indo-Chinese
colony for the benefit OF her own trade.
n she aud Russia arc allowed to divide
China up into spheres OF influence
American trade in the Orient will be
destroyed, instead OF indefinitely ex-
panding."
The above clipping, taken from
the Toledo Blade, Il strong Repub-
lean paper, illustrates very forci-
bly, the inconsistent attitude of the
party which it advocates.
| What right has the United
States TO demand or expect that
foreign countries will "open'
their doors when we have Il Chin
csc tariff wall at our own ports,
excluding the products of every
other country on The globel If one
acknowledgement that favor from
another it would be spurned will
contempt and the one making th'
request would be considered a Fl

The proposition that this gov

sistency; for no sensible reason cal
? be given why this country shoul,
/. be entit'cl to ary more lat

VICTIMS OF ALG I iRIsM.

Republic.
Now that enlisted men of the
United States regular forces, who
fought in Cuba and Porto Rico
during the war with Spain, are
testifying before the Wade Court
of Inquiry, the bottom facts re-
garding the quality of beef issued
by the War Department are being
brought out.
These are the men-the helpless
noncoms and private soldiers
who had to subsist on Uncle Sam 5
army rations or 90 without food.
They had neither money nor op
portunity to supplement those IA
tions with outside purchases. It.
was upon them that the "experi-
mcnt" of rotten canned beef and
cmbaImed refrigerated beef was
tried while they We're in the trench
cs or skirmishing through tropical
swamps in their devoted service
to their country.
Most of these men, sergcants
and corporals, had gone through
arduous campaigns against the In
dians on the frontier. They tes-
tilted that they had never suffered
for food as ip the war with Spain.
One Sergeant said that half the
men in his command were on the
sick list from eating the canned
/ roast beef. Another swore that
he and his comrades fought at san
Juan on empty stomachs. A third
testified that his men threw the
beef away because it nauseated
them. A Sergeant of the Ninth In
fantry said bluntIy that the beet
didn't look good when you open
ed it, didn't taste good when you
ate it, and didn't seem to do you
any good after you had eaten it,
All testified that the beef nauscat
ed them and caused intestina
troubles.
How do the people relish thil
testimony Of the enlisted men oi
of an American army! These mel
have no political axes to grind
They are called to testify as to th'
quality of their rations and the,
tell of things as they saw them
Their stories, although manfull,
told--they never complained dur
during the war, because the,
thought Uncle Sam was doing tn
, best he could for them--are some
, what pathetic. 1t is they VIII
were the keencst sufferers thrOugI

rank and file of the whole arm
