LITTLE BY-PLAY IN THE LOBBY
OF THE EARGARET.
MANAGER COLLINS is ARRESTED
Law and Order League Tried to Stop
Sunday Night Performance of
"In Mizzoura," by the Fraw-
ley Company.
(Special to Inter Mountain.)

Anaconda, May 12-In accordance with
the statement of the Law and ofoer
League made several days ago, Manager
Frank Collins Of the Margaret theater
and a man supposed t the time to nave
been c. ]. Reilley, manager of the Fraw-
ley company, but who was not, were ar
rested last night during the third act or
"In Mizzoura," chargN with violation
of the law I'm permitting Sunday per-
formances.
The warrants were sworn to by A. l..
Brooks on behalf of the Anaconda Law
and Order League, and were served by
Under Sheriff Morgan.
County Attorney Duffy, who was pres
ent In the lobby at the time, was asked
as to the legality of the proceeding. He
replied that If the warrants had been
indorsed by the justice they were all
right. otherwise not, for, said the coun-
ty attorney, "the law states that in order
to make an arrest at might on a charge
of misdemeanor the warrant must be in
dorsed by the justice of the peace who
issued it,
Under Sheriff Morgan took Mr.. Collins
and the other gentleman before Justice
Duane. The court fixed the bond of the
two ut $500 each, and when asked about
indorsing the warrants said 1t was not
necessary.
Were Turned Loose.
The under sheriff then communicated
by phone with Sheriff Coney and told
him of the refusal of the justice to in
dorse the warrants.
Morgan listened a moment, hung up
the receiver and then turned both
theatrical managers loose.
Warrants had also been sworn out
against eight OF the Frawley company,
but they were not served.
Every one In the theater last night
was expecting something Of the sort
to take place. as several members of the
league had been making strenuous ef-
forts all afternoon to secure warrants
and prevent the opening of the opera
house.
County Attorney Duffy refused to
issue the warrants in the afternoon be-
cause no misdemeanor had been commit
ted at that time but he informed them
that he would be at the theater In per-
son and IL they wanted warrants to call
him out after the first act.
He was not called on, however as the
warrants were prepared by Attorney
James and issued by Justice Duane.
The matter of the arrests created no
little merriment in the theater and
added materially to the enjoyment OF
the evening.

4 city Of 100000 p.up.r..

The great city of London, excIu-
sIve Of the so-cailed outer belt, has
a pauper population which numbered
i07.53s souls during the record week
OF December. 1901. And OF the per.
Sons cared for by the public 6s.40s
were inmates OF the workhouses,
while 36.409 we're assisted by out.
door relief.

Notwithstanding the fact that Eng
land Ia fairly prosperous now. II ap-
pears. moreover. that It is relatively
large In proportion to the population,
the number Of paupers In every 1000
Inhabitants being greater than It was
In any OF the four years preceding.
There was decided increase over
1900. namely, from 226 to 23.7 In the
thousand.
II should be said also that the f,g-
ures do not include yagrants or the
insane poor. More than 1863 900 per-
sons were admitted to the metropli.
tan casual wards last year. and Lon
don had to provide for Fl 400 of the
insane poor. The latter, like the
sane paupers. are steadily increasing
in numbers.
But here Ia a still more remark
bic fact. In London 81 per cent Of
the entire population over s5 years
OF age. exclusive again OF the vagrant
and the insane, are paupers. No
doubt many Of these people began
work In childhood. no doubt many
OF them were glad to work whenever
they could get work during the long
period OF forty or fifty years. 1t
would be libel on the race to think
otherwise. And yet the competence
which looms up before the vision of
Mr.. Carnegie was not forthcoming
The road for 81 out OF every 100 Of
the people who were destined to live
beyond 65 years was the road to the
poorhouse. and among the 70 who

Tn. sugar seun.y Conference.

Europe Is quite as much exercised
over sugar as the United States.
and . more intricate problem Of
state policy was never discussed than
the one brought before the Brussels
sugar bounty conference, which reas-
sembled Jan. after q short inter
mission.
The sugar industry In Europe has
been built up At great cost to the
government and to consumers.
France now pays out about 100000
900 annually In bounties. The for
eign sugar trade Of that country. of
Germany and Of Austria Hungary de-
pends very largely upon a system of
export bounties, and the combination
of bounty. tariff and excise duties
has brought about 4 most remarka-
BILE situation.
Great organizations similar to our
trusts have been developed in Ger
many and Austria Hungary within
the last few years. The tariff gives
them absolute control of the home
market. where they fix prices as
they please. and when they have
taken enormous profits out OF the
home consumer they send the sur
plus abroad. taking the bounties out
OF the government, and sell for any
old price In the competition Of the
foreign market. The people Of Eng
land. who get IS per cent Of their re-
fined sugar and 81 per cent OF their
raw sugar from France. Austria
Hungary and Germany. pay for the
sugar that they consume less half

are not inclined to relinQuish all

of settlement hard to get at. The
