Cissie Ioftus' Enlargement.

The engagement Of Cissie Lotus, the
famous English mimic. at the New Grand
next week, will establish a new high rec
ord Of attendance, Judging from the pres
ent extraordinary advance demand for
seats. Manager Chase has figured 1t out
that the demand for reserved seats daily
averages 81 a minute during the busy box
Office hours. This extraordinary interest
in the much-talked-of vaudeville star be-
tokens audiences of the greatest proper
tions, far exceeding those of Ching Ling
Foo's first week here, which broke all
previous records at the big Grand. Miss
LOTUS has. in all her American engage
ments so far, proved the greatest fnan-
cial success known to polite vaudeville
managers, and her services are In demand
constantly. She has the distinction of
being the highest salaried artist i4 the
vaudeville world. and the greatest attrac-
ton known in its annals. Certainly the
fiattering press notices and universal COM
mendatioH she has earned in New York
and Boston will commend her most ia
vorably to the patrons of the New Grand
whose number next week will without
doubt be legion.

Modern Juggernaut.

NEW YORK, March 23.-In the work.
ingmen's course of lectures at st. Georges
Church. the Rev. DR.. S. c. Swallow talked
last night on slave, Serf, and Wage
Garner" DR.. Swallow is the Prohibition
ist who ran for Governor of Pennsylvania
last election on an independent ticket, in
fusing an element of uncertainty into the
campaign that kept the other party lead
ers busy. Last night he concerned him
self largely with the perniciousness Of
trusts. The modern juggernaut, he said,
was the business monopoly, championed by
the political boss, an expression of opin
ion which inspired somebody in the au-
dence to call out. We ought to lynch

AYl the trust evils came, the speaker
continued from unfair discrimination AS
an instance, the average wage-earner pays
per cent assessment ON the full value of
his property while the corporation pays
about one fourth Of 1 per cent. The cor
porations find 1t easy to purchase legisla-
tors and political bosses Mr.. Swallow
said that he never knew of a strike that
benefited the cause Of labor in the long
run and he did not think that labor or
ganizations offered the real remedy. The
remedy was to be found in the ballot box.

AGAINST A SHIP TRUST.
An Important Change to BE Made In
the Subsidy Bill,

An important change is TO be made by
the House Merchant Marine Committee in
one of the antitrust amendments to the
Ship Subsidy bill. 1t now provides that
if trust of shipbuilders is formed and Sc
cures control OF twc-thirl Is Of the ship
building plants engaged in turning out
vessels constructed to earn subsidies, ships
LII chased abroad are to be admitted free.
The new proposition will be much D'ore
stringent and will provide that if such a
trust is formed. its members shall be COM
relied to relinquish all work being done
for the Government. that no further con-
tracts for Government either shiphuilding
or repairing shall be given to member
OF the trust. and that no vessel construct
ed in a shipyard belonging to the trust
shall be eligible for compensation under
the Ship Subsidy act. 1t is believed this
will e1ectually prevent any such trust
beinp formed,
