OF Mrs. RoOsevelt's tact many stories
could be told She has very decided
opinions as to what she should and
should not do, and She manages TO
carry her point without giving offense
to anyone. Our American habit of
indiscriminate handshaIing is very
distatsteful 10 her. and she made up
her mind when she went to Albany
that she would not have her hand
shaken by the hundreds who pass her
at the official receptions. writes Rheta

mans Home Companion. Accordingly.

DISCUSSION ON THE SUBJECT

The principal points of difference be-
tween the amended resolution and the
communication presented by Mr.. Biggs
are the sections providing for the
opening of certain streets north Of
Vandeyer avenue. the right of the rail-
road company to locate supports for
overhead crossings at streets and the
right Of the company in cases where in
demnity is asked from the city, to de-
fend the suits.
The first two propositions appear to
be the stumbling blocks inasmuch as
the directors are of the opinion that
the city should reserve the right of
opening streets already laid out when
ever seen IL. and also that the city
should be consulted regarding the To-
cation of overhead supports. As the
company agrees to indemnify the city in
case damage suits are brought, it is not
thought unjust that the railroad be al
lowed to enter defense.
IL was agreed TO meet Mr.. Biggs and
City Solicitor Reinhardt In the latter's
office this afternoon and go over the
matter
Francis j. Bradley appeared before
the directors and asked that the rail-
road company be required to erect a
foOtbridge in connection with the rail-
road bridge over the Brandywine creek.
Mr. Bradley said chat at least 1 900 peO-
pie crossed the bridge daily and that
for their benefit he thought the depart
ment ought to insert a clause i'm the
proposed elevated track resolution COM
pelling the company TO put up a bridge.
The matter was referred 60 the City
Solicitor
WANTS CONTRACT DRAWN
Walter II. Hayes. representing the
Wilmington City Electric Company
requested that the directors prepare
the contract for lighting the city.which
was granted the company in June last.
The present contract expires in a few
weeks. and Mr.. Hayes desired that the
new one be put in proper form. The
subject will be formally discussed in a
few days.
Newton H. Cloud was present and
asked the directors what they intended
to do regarding dhe eradine OF Twenty
third Twenty-fouith, jessup and
Pine streets. where he has thiTty-four
houses in the course OF erection. Presi-
dent Webster informed Mr. Cloud that
ahe figures for such work had just been
received by the board. and that action
would DE taken ia "a short time.
Considerable routine business was
transacted. Secretary Wiley reported

Five Die and Fifty Are Hur, Dnriug a
PLAY in Chicago


Grief swayed the Chicago Ghetto Sun
day because of the five deaths and many
serious Injuries resulting from the panic
and stampede caused by false alarm of
fire given by an unidentified man in the
West Twelfth Street Turner uall, 2a3
West 18th street, where Jewish actors

The 500 people in the hail. in the main
women and children made rush for the

protecting balustrade. many OF them fall
ing to the floor ten feet below, and when
the tragic exit had been accomplished
FIVE almost hfeless bodies lay bleeding
on the stairs and nearly fifty seriously in
jured women aud children lay in heaps on
the floor of the hail and at the entrance
below.

sent in the alarm as soon as he realized
that there was G panic. The police re-
sponded with patrol wagons and ambu-
lances. Forty-four of the injured were
removed to their homes and TO the coun,
ty hospital.
Crowds stood about the streets in the
neighborhood of the scene of the disaster
Sunday and many angry men condemned
the city administration for permitting the
use of such death trap as a theater.
The doors of the hall opened inward and
the exits are inadequate for the hall,
which will seat 1000 persons. There are
no fire escapes from the balcony, which
is reached by two narrow stairways.

INCREASE IN WORLDS MONEY
Mint Director Reports Growth of
Moro than 100 Per Gent.

An increase of NOR, than 100 per cent
in tho money Of the world within less
tAoL a generation vii. be one of the most
iAte 2sting exhibits of the annual report
Of the director OF the mint. Nearly the
whole of this increase is in metallic
money, and much the larger proportion
is in gold. The total stock reported in
1878 was about 81 600, 900 900. of which
more than half was in paper money not
fully covered by metallic reserves. The
situation at the beginning of 1900 showed
& total monetary stock of about $1l ,G00,-
100000, of which only little more than
one-fourth was in uncovered paper
money.
Director Roberts finds that, while the
total money supply Of the world has in
creased about 81 ,000,0 900 900, the increase
ia gold money since 1873 has been about
S., COG, 900 600, in silver about 81, 750,-
100000, al l in uncovered paper only
about $3.50 100000. A large proportion
Of the increase in gold has taken place
within the short space of seevn years,
while the quantity Of silver money, which
was at its max mum of about S4,250 900.
900 at the beginning of 1896, has since
been somewhat reduced by the sale of
silver by Germany aud its retirement in
other countries. The conditions of 1893
showed a total monetary s. pply of about
SIC, 800, 600, 900, which has since been in
creased by aJout $1,100,0 100000. About
S940,000V,0 of this increase has been
in gold money.
