that theatrical managers should be compelled.-or

dominant. and restraints of taste. modesty, and
dignity were long since broken down. The play OF

LAST OF THE YEAR.
Cabinet Meets and Discusses
Past and Future.

Washington, Dec. 30-Today's meeting
of the cabinet was brief, the session con-
Stunning less than half an hour All the
members except Secretary Shaw, who is
in New York. were present The presi-
dent and his advisers exchanged fel1cfta-
tons upon the results of the past years
administration and looked forward with
hopeful anticipation to the events of the
New Year.
Secretary Hay had little new to present
to the cabinet on the Venezuelan question
or upon other matters relating to foreign
affairs It is understood to be the hope
and expecta ton of the president and his
advisers that upon the receipt OF Presi-
dent Castro's reply to the arbitration
proposition the allies will agree to raise
the blockade established by them over
Venezuelan ports. Such action in view
of this government would place the ques-
lions in controversy in excellent shape
for arbitration. Secretary Moody and
Postmaster General Payne brought to the
attention of the cabinet some matters re-
lating TO their department, but they were
of such a nature that no announcements
were made concerning them
Affairs relating to the land office were
also discussed.
