'"Did you have conferences about Jul!

Yes. hourly, morning. noon and night
l met him in Boston and I knew him a:
attorney for Lawson. Weidenfeld & Co
He spoke to me about the Power sui
and urged me TO send Peter Power I,
Europe. He knew Power had been served
with a subpoena. advised Chanler Of
the service Immediately it occurred"
Lamb then said that he had never met
Bouden or E. R. Thomas. All the knowl-
edge he had of the connection of both
Thomas and Cochran with the Power
suit came from Weidenfeld himself. He
had heard Cochran consulted over the
telephone by both Weidenfeld and Chan
Ter on several occasions. Those occa-
sions went as far back as December. be-
fore Lamb went to Chicago on the 25th.
He heard Weidenfeld call up Cochran
repeatedly.
Dragged Into Litigation.
Lamb then said that Henry Stern had
expressed to him his sorrow that Harry
Content had been dragged into this lit
igation and the American Tobacco suit
by Weidenfeld. Stern had told him in
June that Content & Co. had now with
drawn from the litigation, and Weiden-
field afterward told Lamb that he had
now to shoulder all the expenses.
Lamb then said that there had been
several conversations about the appear
ance of Power. Stern was afraid that
Power would break down under cross
examination.
Stern. on the contrary maintained af-
ter the suryice OF subpoenas on Power
that Peter be sent Immediately either
to Montre,l, Boston or Europe. But
Lamb would not let Power go away
Parker c. Chanler also advised that
Power be sent away. Chanler consult
ed Treadwell Cleveland and Bourke
Cochran frequently on the subject
Chanler advised Lamb persistently that
the service on Power was bad and that
there could be no consequences.
Advised by Counsel.

by such eminent counsel that Power was
safe and could not be held in contempt,
determined to send Power away, but not
far. The afternoon before Power went
to West Hurley. Chanler brought let
ter to me purporting to be from Law
son, 'Neidenfeld & Co. in liquidation OF
certain matters. This letter inclosed
$500, but l said that was not enough. and
Chanler brought $3.50 more. Then Power
went to West Hurley. Cochran. Chanler
and Cleveland had reassured me that
Power need not be produced unless the
court held him in contempt.

Power in a bad way. very nervous. He

Innes' Band Concert.

The leading concert bands of America
are undoubtedly among the best IN the
world. and are in favor with classes and
masses alike. They have brought band
music into the domain of high art and
have exerted an admirable influence.
Prior TO their coming the repertoire of
all military bands was necessarily linked
to such martial airs as Dixie" and
When Johnny Comes Marching Home Z"
Gilmore. Sousa and Innes, however. have
changed all this.
The recent success of the Sousa Band
in Europe, and that of Innes at Allan
tic city during the last few summers and
at the Tan American Exposition at Buff
falo has amply demonstrated the fact that
high artistic merit is rewarded alike
in either the old or new world Innes is
said to have played to close on 1000 900
paid admissions at his summer concerts.
\ prominent feature of his success has
been the giving of entire scenes from ''Lu-
cia,' Faust" Carmen and other ope-
ras. with a cast OF prominent singers. The
organization will be heard here next Sun
day afternoon and evening at the Column
bia. With it will be the corps of musical
blaeksmitbs with their electrical at
tuned anyils. which has proved one of the
catchy features of the present tour.

KuseIiI>'s SECOND Recital.

Jan Kubelik will again be heard in re-
cital at the Columbia, Friday afternoon,
January 10. The gathering that attended
his first recital here was wonderful evi-
dence OF the interest awakened by the
reports OF his performances. Visiting vir-
tuosos rarely expect to be received by
large audiences. They hope TO attract
them later: but Introductory concerts are
not. as a rule. reckoned among the profit
able ones of an American season.
Violin players are not nearly so numer-
Gus as pianists. There is consequently no
such widespread desire TO hear particular
interpretations by celebrities. Violin re-
citals have never attracted such audiences
as pianists are sometimes able to draw
IL was for this reason that the prospects
of great pecuniary success for Jan Kube-
lik seemed dubious. But his success here
has justified his managers judgment. and
at least one violinist seems certain to
create as much sensation as a pianist.
The sale for the second concert is al
ready very large. and the Columbia will
undoubtedly hold one of the largest and
most fashionable audiences of the season.

COMING TO THE THEATRES.
colnmbln-stnart Roh.on.

The engagement next week of Stuart
Robson as BERTHE the Lamb in '.The Hen
rietta" will prove me of the most con-
spicuous events of the dramatic year.
Successful as this EXCELLENT comedian has
been in all the roles he has essayed. it is
as BERTHE he is best remembered and best
beloved by theatregoers. The fact that
this will be Mr.. Rotsons last engage
ment in Washington as BERTHE lends an
additional interest 10 the performances
at the Columbia next week
For this revival Mr.. Robson Is said to
have mounted the play with elaborate ef-
fects; gowned the young women OF his
support most expepsirely, and surround
ed himself with band cof players of ex-
ceptional merit. In fact. 1t is one of the
most expensive productions of recent
years. ~
In the supporting company are Maclyn
Arbuckle, well known in Washington as
the star of why Smith Left Home and
"The Sprightly Romance of Marsac;"
Russ Whytal. as the star of that excel
lent play of his own writing, For Fair

The Chevy Chase Hounds departed from
their usual drag hunt yesterday. and gave
the lovers of cross country riding a real

the hounds able to locate fox, but Rey
nard led a merry chase across about
twelve or fifteen miles of good hunting
country.
Hounds Give joyful Tongue.
The club met at II o'clock yesterday
morning and an unusually large and en-
thusiastic field was out all keen for the
| first all-day hunt of the present season.
The hounds were roaded just beyond the
Chevy Chase powerhouse. where the first
| cast was made. but after fifteen or twenty
minutes the hounds were drawn off, and
carried TO a covert near Kensington, Md.
where another try was made. but here
again blank was drawn after much val
liable time had been lost.
The pack was then cast in the woods
north of Garret Park. where, after draw
ing for a few minutes, the heart of every
one in the field was made glad by suddenly

nasty fall about half way through the run
over a stin sapling fence, necessitating
his leaving the field. but fortunately he
received no serious injury. having only a
very bad shaking up.

tains. the tablet being scientific combi-
nation OF Bloodroot, Red gum. and simi-
lar valuable and harmless antiseptics.
The safe and effective catarrh cure may
be found at any drug store under the
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
Whether the Catarrh is located in the
nose, throat. bronchial tubes. or stomach
the tablets seem to act with equal sue
cess, removing the stuffy feeling in head
and nose, clearing the mucous membrane
OF throat and trachea from catarrhal Sc
cretions, which cause the tickling. cough
ing, hawking, and gagging so annoying to
every catarrh sufferer.
Nasal catarrh generally leads to ulcera-
ton, in some cases to such an extent as
to destroy the nose entirely, and in many
old cases OF oatarrh the bones of the head
become diseased. Nasal catarrh gradu-
ally extends to the throat and bronchial
tubes and very often to the stomach
causing that very obstinate trouble, ca
tarrh OF the stomach.
Catarrh is systemic poison. inherent
in the blood, and local washes. douches.
salves. inhalers, and sprays can have no
effect on the real cause of the disease. An
internal remedy which acts upon the
blood is the only rational treatment, and
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets is the safest of
all internal remedies, as well as the most
convenient and satisfactory from medi-
cal standpoint.
DR.. Eaton recently stated that he had
successfully used Stuart's Catarrh Tablets
in old chronic cases, even where ulcera-
tion had extended so far as to destroy the
septum OF the nose. He says: Il am
pleasantly surprised almost every. day by
the excellent results from Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets. 1t is remarkable how eff
fectually they remove the excessive secre-,
brtp haalfby
OF the mucous membranes OF the nose
throat and stomach
All druggists sell complete treatment of
the Tablets at 80 cents and a little book
giving the symptoms and causes of the
various forms OF catarrh. will be mailed

In The Times,of December there ap-

story OF how Mr.. Frank Vanderlip. former

facts regarding the Diamond Match Com

Gus, as the corporation referred to has
never failed. but has been prosperous

As matter of fact. the Diamond Match
Company has been paying quarterly diyf-
dends for more than decade to the gra j.

The patrons of the Lafayette Square
