ssCYRANO'' IN SONG.
Francis Wilson's New Comic Opera
Makes a Hit In Montreal

Montreal, Que, Sept 15.-The opera of
'Cyrano de Bergerac' as sang by Francis
Wilson and his company was an agree
able surprise. Those who had seen the
play and had come for the purpose of see
ing how it had been burleSqued and butch
cred were agreeably disappointed Those
who had never seen il were decidedly
pleased with the new comic opera. There
was unstinted applause and many of the
songs were encOred.
The Hbrettist and the composer have
done their work conScientiOusly and with
an apparent desire TO please the poet.
They had evidently no other aim besides
pleasing the public than to, if possible.
show up the times and customs and the
character of CyranO himself in a light
and tuneful way that should harmonic
with the light and joyous period in which
the events of the play happened. The re-
suit is that Francis Wilson had q much
more serious part on hand than he has
ever attempted before He is dron. and
yet he is not offensive, and while his fun
ny sayings met with filters and smiles
his serious lines were listened to in a
manner seldom found in an audience that
has come to hear comic opera.

Washington, Sept. 15.-It is said at
the war department that the return of
the two members of the Philippine
commission remaining in Manila,
Messrs. DENLY and Worcester is in or
der TO advise the president respecting
the very latest aspect of affairs so that

by President Schurman and Senator
Beverage and other persons recently
returned from Manila are not at all
points in strict accord though the items
of divergence are not known beyond
the White House. It is said that as
Admiral Dewey is nearing the United
States the opportunity to have a full
meeting of the Philippine commission
of which he is a member should not be
lost, and the report that may be ex-
pected to sum up their work will be in
dispensable to congress in its efforts at

THE LEAGUE SCHEDULE.
Dreyfuss Claims That Louisville Has
Been Unfairly Treated.

Philadelphia, March 27-"Part of veil
Matched conspiracy" remarked Col. John
J. Rogers of the philadelphia baseball
club after he had finished reading mes
sage he had just received from President
Dreyfuss, of the louisville club. today
In his message Mr.. Dreyfuss informed Rog-
ers of the tampering with the National
League schedule, by which Louisville Is
deprived of eleven Sunday games that were
given to st. Louis, Cincinnati, Chicago,
and Cleveland the four clubs owned by
Brush Robson, and Hart. and asked him
what it all meant, and whether Philadel-
phia would back up Louisville in de-
mand on the League for new schedule
which treated all clubs fairly and equita-
bly,. Rogers replied that the Philadelphia
club would most assuredly stand by LOUIS
vile in any demands that club might make
for justice and fair play. Rogers, in a
long interview, said:
These conspirators in the National
League are certainly going further than
thought they would dare go. say con-
spirators and | mean it. AS lawyer l
know what that word means, and in quot
ing me you need not substitute milder
one. There is a consuiracy in the League
which is working for its ultimate destruc-
ton. The amalgamation of the Baltimore
and Brooklyn interests and attempted
of that conspiracy. The scheme is to
place losing teams in Baltimore and Cleve-
land and then force the League to buy
out these two clubs, bankrupt Louisville.
and then get rid of one more club so as
to obtain an eight-club circuit.
But the League has been mulcted too
often to stand any more of it. The Bos-
ton, New York. Pittsburg, and Philadel-
phia clubs have pledged themselves not to
pay cent toward supporting these clubs
in the future or buy any of them out in
order to make them quit. AS it requires
unanimous consent to change the present
circuit for at least three years to come.
you can readily understand how futile will
be the attempt Of this conspiracy to force
its scheme through. Young had charge OF
| the schedule and the League should ascer-
tain by a thorough investigation who the
guilty parties are and have them heavily
punished for the trick played on Louis
vile.
'0ne more year will see the disruption
of the National League unless the Brush
faction is suppressed. ! am prepared fer
the end to come and will welcome it, as
then Boston, New York, Pittsburg, and
Philadelphia will be released from the In
dianapolis agreement and can organize q
new league on sound basis. The old Ath-
letic club could then be reorganized in this
city and give Philadelphia two clubs, just
what 1t wants, and which is best for base
ball here. Washington would be glad to
join such new league, and in order to
secure an eight-club circuit Buffalo and
Baltimore, or two other cities could be
secured without trouble, but if the two
named were taken we could save a great
amount of travelling expenses, as we would
not have farther WestSto travel than Pitts
burg and Buffalo, -

DRANK THE DIsINFEcTANT.
Mrs. Maude BarrY's Strange Attempt
TO Commit Suicide.

The condition of Mrs. Maude Barry, who
attempted suicide at her home, 205 X
Street southeast, yesterday morning, was
last night reported to be much improved,
and her recovery is said to be certain.
No cause is assigned for the woman's act,
but it is thought that she was despondent
because of successive troubles which have
befallen her during the past year.
Mrs. Barry attempted to end her life
by drinking the contents of bottle OF
disinfectant The poison had been left
with her by the Health Office authorities
to be used in fumigating her home. The
fumigating was made necessary because
of case of scarlet fever which had recent
ly attacked her eldest child, boy of five
years The child is convalescing. The
mother has been confined to the house for
some time nursing the child, and it is
said has been acting in a strange manner.
She had charge of the disinfectant and un-
derstocd its properties. having been in
formed by the health authorities that it
was poisonous and would kill if taken in
ternally. She was warned to be careful in
handling it,
Mrs. Barry was in the room with her
sick child yesterday morning, and seeing
the bottle took several swallows from it
until she fell to the floor in violent con-
vulsions physician was summoned at
once. and after working on the woman for
some time succeeded in getting her out OF
danger. When questioned the woman ad-
mitted taking the poison with suicidal in
tent but refused to state what actuated
her to the attempt on her life. Mrs. Barry
lives with her father. John Taylor. She
| has two children, the younger babe in
arms.

TIE OF SYMPATHY BROKEN.
A Division of Opinion and Action
Among Labor Organizations.

The tie of sympathy which binds all
members of organized labor together and
which bound the trades unionists of the
District of Columbia to the knights of
Labor and influenced the former to come
TO the assistance of the latter when ssv-
eral Of them were indicted for conspiracy
under the antitrust law, has been broken,
and the knights will receive no further
aid from the other members of labor
unions in this city. This announcement
was made last night after meeting of
the Central Labor Union. at which the
report of member of the joint committee
en- defence" was considered.
The member OF the joint committee
referred to stated in his report that at the
last meeting OF that committee certain
Knights of Labor, also members Of the
committee representing the District AS
sembly, spoke of the representatives from
the Central Labor Union and the trades
unionists generally in such uncomplimen-
tary terms as 10 make it impossible for
the delegates from the union to longer
affiliate with the knights of Labor repre-
sentatives on the committee.
The defence committee which is COM
posed of delegates from all the central la
Dor organizations of the city, was organ
lied soon after several members of District
Assembly No. sc. X. of l.. were indicted
IN the supreme Court OF the District for
conspiracy under the antitrust law. for

bly, No. Sc. X. of L.. and the local Fedora

ed early last summer and for long time
the members worked harmoniously together
and a great deal OF money was collected
through their influence. 4 large amount of

that that date would be a fitting occasion
