BELASCo AFTER A THEATRE.
The Playwright to Put His Theories
Into Practice

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Mr. David Be
lasco is trying to secure the Herald
Square Theatre property as a site for the
new theatre which he has promised to
erect in this city.
When Mr.. Belasco first announced. sew
eral months ago his intention to build a
new playhouse in New York. he said that
he wanted TO get site north of Forty
second Street At that time he was in ne
gotiation for the property owned by the
Astor estate at the corner of Forty-iifth
Street and Broadway, but objections by
other property owners in the neighborhood
were made and the matter dropped.
Since then several other desirable plots
of ground in the neighborhood of Longacre
Square have been in contemplation, but
something has always happened to prevent
a closing of the deal.
Once" said Mr. Belasco, last evening,
I'VE practically had the matter settled
when a tenant of part of the property
learned that we wanted it for a theatre
and forthwith jumped the price of his
lease away out of sight"
The Herald Square Theatre property be-
longs to the Johnston estate, and there is
some difficulty in obtaining the consent OF
all the parties interested to long lease.
the owners won't sell. We are trying now
to persuade them to give us a long lease
one long enough to justify us in putting UP
as costly a building as we had planned If
we can get the lease We want-at a reason
able rental of course-we are ready to put
down whatever money is asked and We
shall begin work on the theatre at once
We have also proposed to the owners of the
property that they build theatre in upper
Broadway, and we shall not stop at trifies
to carry the deal through
1t is known that the persons interested in
the Johnston estate have been considering
the advisability of improving the property
by the erection of a hotel or a business
block, and for that reason Mr.. Belasco feels
hopeful that his proposition for them to
build a theatre for him may meet with
their approval
Mr.. Belasco's friends have assured him of
an ample supply of capital and in these ne.
gotiations he has the assistance of Mr.
Charles Evans. the present lessee of the
Herald Square Theatre, who is anxious to
take an interest in the enterprise. Mr.
Evans has four years lease of the proper
ty now. but it is not Mr.. BeIasco's inten-
tion to enter into any partnership with him
in the management of the present house
Il don't want that" said the playwright
last night. Il have my ideas about a thea
tre and intend to carry them out-on this
site if | can get it; if not, on some other
Mr.. Evans wants to come in with me. and
he is willing to give up his lease if the es-
tate will sell out to us, give US long lease
or build us theatre

As Viewed BY SCIENCE
A Study of Wounds From Modern
Firearms to Be Made.
DR.. II. W. Hodge. of the Army Medi-
cal Museum, in the Philippine Is
the krng-JOrSensen Bullets, as
Compared to Those of the Old style.

DR.. r, W. Hodge. of the Army Medical
Museum. who sailed for Manila November
IS on the transport Logan. has ANNOUNCED
his safe arrival in letter TO his wife. Dr
Hodges mission in the Philippines is for
the purpose of securing anatomical speci-
mems of wounds inflicted by modern hre-
arms. Special receptacles for the purpose
Of preserving and shipping such specimens
have been forwarded to him.
II is expected that one result oil Dr.
Hodges investigation will be to establish
the destroying power CT the modern hlgh-
pressure gun as compared with the Spring
field and other guns used in former wars.
II is still claimed by many that the modern
firearm does not possess what Is known
among army officers as the knock down
ability OF the rife of larger calibre, but
that the ball passes through the part hlt
without impairing at the time the fghung
ability Of the soldier. unless vital part IS
reached.
On the other hand it is said that the
large bore guu. although not possessing
the penetrating power of the new arm.
will stop an enemy quicker and prove more
effective than any of the long distance
weapons. Several specimens OF gunshor
wounds as a result of the Spanish Ameri-
can war were secured by the Medical Mu-
seum officials which show the extent of the
wound inflicted by the Krag- -Jorgensen
rife but are otherwise unsatisfactory
specimens. as they were taken from dead
bodies.
DR. Hodges 5 object will be to secure what
are termed live" specimens. These Will
be procured Immediately after an amputa-
tion or soon after death.
From them, several facts of interest to
physicians are expected to be obtained.
The conditions of the muscles relating to
their contraction. the bone resistance, the
action upon the nerves and the general
technical characteristics OF wounds Will be
observed. All specimens when received at
the Medical Museum will be placed on ex-
hibition. 1t is understood that Dr. Hodse
will not interest himself in the bubonlc
nlaeue while in Manila, as 1t is SAID no
results of Importance would be gained.
DIR. Hodge will make his headquarters III
Manila at the Marine Hospital.
DR.. Walter Reed of Surgeon Generai
Sternberg's staff, is expected to start 1or
the Philippines within the next thirty days
He will more particularly conhne his IN
yestieations to a study of tropical diseases.
He will take several assistants with hln
Now that the bubonic plague has made It's
annearance in our new possessions 1t IS un-
derstood that the greater portion OF his
time will be devoted to study OF that
seourge.

IN THE INTEREST OF THE ARMY
A Bill Looking to Changes In stan
Organization.

The Secretary of War is devoting con-
siderable attention to the preparation OF
bill in the interest OF the army. Several
bills for the reorganization of the army
nave been proposed and one is now under
consideration looking to the changes IN
the staff organization. The reOrganlza-
tion Of the entire staff of the regular army
will. il is expected. receive considerable
opposition from members of the House
Committee on Military Affairs.
The Secretary of War in his annual re-
port has expressed himself as in favor of
a staff composed OF officers of the line, de
tailed for staff duty The officials OF the
War Department fear. however, that such
a recommendation cannot secure the ap-
proval of Congress. and a bill is now IN
preparation providing several minor
changes in the staff without affecting the
personnel
Several plans have been proposed for a
reorganization of the staff departments,
and one which is favored by some OF the
members of the House Committee on Mill
tary Affairs contemplates the cOnsolida-
ti0u of the Commssary and Quartermas-
ter's departments into one department 20
be known as the Department of supplies.
The same plan contemplates the consoll-
daton Of the Inspector Generals f>epart-
ment with the Adjutant General 5 Once.
II is said that this system of consOlida-
ton would receive the support OF Mr.. Hull.
Chairman of the Military Committee col
the House Mr. Hull has taken consider
able interest in the subject OF reorganlz-
ing the army and has under consideration
a bill providing for the permanent estab-
Hshment of the regular army with mini
mum strength OF 5,0GO men.
Mr. Hull strongly fayors the continual
ton of the three battalion organization in
the army He believes in large and per-
manent increase in the artillery, and VIII
recommend an entirely new organization
Of that arm. He is not in favor OF estab-
fishing the. artillery as a new department
Of the staff but advocates its organization
under one head with a brigadier general
as chief of artillery to be on the stan OF
the Major General Commanding the Army
The advocates of the consolidation OF
the staff departments. are not favoring the
immediate adoption of this system. but be-
hieve that the change should be made
gradually as the present chiefs of the de-
Dsrtments retire from service.

It was a hard fought battle, In which
blood and feathers flew. crowd Of vis-
itors watched it through the bars of the
Gag until Keeper Shannon went in and
separated the two. The eagle had been no
match for the big vulture. but he vas
plucky enough not to give in until the
keeper dragged him cut Of the cage and
took him to the bird hospital. The smaller
bird was bleeding profusely from a number
