PLAY FELL FLAT.
Kaiser COllabOrated But "Iron
Tooth" Proved Failure.


Berlin. Feb. 2S.-The premiere night
OF Der Eisenzahn" (The Iron Tooth) at
the Royal theatre was q notable event,
socially and artistically. All the tick
cts had been sold many days ago, and
the house was packed. Emperor WILL
lam appeared during the second act and
sat almost unobserved and quite alone
in the royal orchestra box, screened by
the drapery from observation.
After the first act there was complete
silence. After the second and third
there was rather vigorous applause. but
from the parquette, where the critics
and literary people sat, and from the
second and third galleries, there came a
piercing storm of Kisses. The en-
peror, whose collaboration with Captain
Lauf in the play is we'll known, was
highly displeased. Captain Lauf took a
cup Of tea with the emperor after the
third act, having twice answered calls
from the boxes and elsewhere, and hav-
ing come before the curtain as pale as
ghost. Then lie, with the emperor,
left the theatre, which caused a sensa-
tion.
The public verdict on the play is that
1t Is verbose, although containing fine
dramatic passages, and too palpably
glorifies the Hohenzollern hero who put
down the Berlin rebellion in 1447. The
acting was excellent throughout.

PER CENT
House Compromises on Porto
Rican Tariff Bill.
Carried Through by Marrow Margin
-Herculean Efforts to Get Out
Full Vote-Sick Men Brought In
Carriages - Republicans Wildly
Jubilant at Result.

Washington, March 1.-The suspense
in the house as the time for voting on
the Puerto Rican bill drew near was
most intense. Nothing like 1t has been
seen in years. The pressure brought to
bear on each side was tremendous, as
might be expected. and its natural re-
suit was to bring the two forces more
nearly into party lines than had for
merly appeared likely. The admins
tration pressure in behalf Of the bill
caused the Republican opposition to
crumble, while party spirit among the
Democrats. aroused by the prospects Of
a victory, had similar effect upon those
who were inclined to break over party
lines in the other direction.
The battle finally ended in a sweep
ing victory for the Republicans. The
bill, amended as agreed upon at the con-
ference of Republicans on Monday night
so as to reduce the tariff from 25 to Is
percent of the American tariff, and linn
iting it's life to two years. was passed by
a vote Of 172 yeas to 161 nays. Six Re-
publicans, Messrs. Crumpacker of In
diana, Fletcher of Minnesota, Heatwole
of Minnesota, Littlefield of Maine. Lor-
inner Of Illinois and Mccall of Massa
chusetts, voted with the opposition
against the bill, and four Democrats,
Messrs. Davey and Myer of Louisiana.
Devries of California and Sibley Of
Pennsylvania, voted with the Republic
cans for the bill.
Herculean efforts had been made to
get out the full vote, and this led to some
remarkable incidents. Six men were
brought from beds of sickness, two of
them from hospitals. Mr.. Brownlow of
Tennessee was brought in a carriage ac-
companied by his wife and physician.
He sat bundled up near the entrance
until mis- vote was given and then with
drew. 1t was felt that the strain would
be severe on him, but when Mr. Tawney,
the Republican whip, urged that the bill
might be lost by this one vote, Mr..
Rrownlow said: Il would rather lose
my life than see this bill defeated"
Mr.. Tawney and three assistants were
out in carriages until midnight Tues
day night accounting for every vote, and
Mr.. Underwood, the Democratic whip,
was similarly exerting every means to
get out his vote. Three Democrats were
brought from sick beds.
There was great excitement through
out the rollcalls, which were followed
with eager interest by thousands of
spectators who packed the galleries to
suffocation. The Republicans indulged
In demonstration Of wild jubilation
when the final result was announced.

TWO UNDER SUPERVISION.
Alleged Poisoning Case Is Puzzling
Connecticut Authorities.

Putnam, Conn, March Upon the
death or recovery Of James Manson, who
is suffering, 1t is claimed from me ecurial
poisoning. hinges what has developed
into a very puzzling case. The at
tending physician states that the mans
case is very pre- 'arious. Captain Briggs
visited him yesterday for the purpose OF
getting his ante-mortem statement.
Manson, who is carpenter by trade,
was taken violently III Thursday, after
drinking a cup of coffee. He had not
been feeling well for several days pre-
vious. At the time he was taken i'll he
expressed the belief that something was
the matter with the coffee. rs it tasted
very bitter. Since then he has said that
the other members Of the family, con-
sisting Of wife and two children. also
drank some of the coffee but as they
apparently suffered no i'll effects it
makes the case more perplexing.
That the case Is one of mercury poi
soning is questioned, and Dir. Overlook
stated that IL remedies had not been ap-
piled as soon as they We're the man
would have died.
Though the police have been actively
at work on the case for the past few
days, no arrests have been made thus
far Mrs. Manson was subjected to a
rigid cross-examination. and according
to Chief Briggs told q very straight
forward story. Despite her husbands
precarious condition, however, she was
to leave yesterday afternoon on visit
to Springfield. Mass, but on suggestion
from the officer she did not go. The
movements of Charles Chappell. who
has been a warm friend Of Mrs. Man.
sons, are also receiving attention from
the police.
1t has developed that the wife Of the
sick man has been using mercurial tab
lets for sore on her arm, and on one
occasion was seen by the housekeeper
to be scraping the dry tablet into cup.
She claimed that she used them in that
way to make a salve for the sore. Mrs.
Manson is about IS years of age, and
of attractive appearance. Chappell re-
sides at North Grosverdale, and Is the

FACING A FIGHT.
Probable Result Of New Eng

Latter Among the Best Paid Of Ar.
tisans- Trouble Due to New Arti-
Gle in Constitution-Actio Not q
Hasty One - Early Agreement
Field.

Boston, March 1.-The New England
states as whole face what may result
in the longest and costliest labor contest
for years. The granite cutters are
among the best paid artisans in the east.
and the sum total of the wages they will
lose If the strike, which begun today, is
protracted one, will be exceedingly
large.
The strike, 1t appears, is general al
though there are some indications that
Individual settlements will be reached
quickly. The strike Is due to an article
In the constitution and bylaws of the
National Cutters union, which says
that the new scale of wages on March
l shall be IS day, and eight hours"
Granite manufacturing is widely dis
tributed. as quarries crop out at all parts
of the Appalachian range in this corner
of the Union, each locality having Its
own particular grade or color of granite
At Quincy there is much monumental
work; at Concord, N. H., and Barre, VT,
fine building stone, while the quarrles
on the islands along the Maine coast and
at points not far inland yield material
which enters into some of the most i'm
posing structures in the country.
Throughout Massachusetts,. Rhode ISL
and and Connecticut, are scattered
carries of more or less extent, each
of which provides the means of employ
ment for many artisans.
The strike is not hasty one on the
part of the cutters. nor surprise to the
manufacturers. The latter were given
ample notice of the unions intentions,
and the past few weeks have seen much
of the material worked up into finished
product. 1t is a remarkable feature
that the granite business has been very
brisk all winter, and cutters have had
little or no dull time. The union men,
accordingly, are In good shape for a
strike, but they claim that the manu-
facturers have contracts on hand rep
resenting millions Of dollars.
The New England Granite Manufac-
turers' association, which represents a
majority Of the Quarries, replied to the
cutters notice that 1t was not possible
to grant the request, as the margins of
profit OH contracts already on hand
would not allow readjustment of wages
and hours. Contrary to the general as
pect Of strikes, this one begins with very
little preliminary debate between en-
ployer and employe, evincing the belief
of the National union that the manu-
facturers will accede to the demand with
little delay.
The Barre. VT. cutters voted last night
to accept 35 cents per hour schedule
for an eight-hour day. The manufac-
turers have offered already "a cents per
hour as an average wage. The manu-
facturers at Quincy last night offered 33
cents as an average wage, and in addi-
tion 10 percent increase in the present
price list. These concessions made on
the eve of the strike may tend to bring
about an early agreement.
