THIRD WEEK OF "BEN.HUR"
MANAGEMENT DECIDES TO CON-
TINUE PRODUCTION IN THIS CITY.
Business Has Been Record-Breaking,
and Receipts Will Amount to $780,
900 for the First Two Weeks.
Manager Miller, of English's Opera House,

Manager Miller, of English's Opera House,
announced last evening that arrangements
had been completed to continue the pro-
duction of "Ben-Hur' at hat house for
another week, beginning Monday, Dec. s.
The sale of seats for the third week of the
show will begin at the box office at the
usual hour on next Monday morning,
Dec. 1.
Mr.. Miller said that the demand for seats
for "Ben-Hur" had been so heavy that
with the exception of the gallery the house
is practically sold for the first two weeks.
Continued demands for seats coming from
people in this city and all parts of the
State made it plain to the management
that the show could be given still another
week with profit, hence arrangements to
that end have been completed.
1t is estimated by Manager Miller that
the sale for the first two weeks, which
includes seventeen performances, will
amount to $3.50 which is slightly in ex-
cess of $1,000 a performance. Mr.. Miller be-
lieves that the business in indianapolis
will break all records for the production of
"Ben-Hur" for the length of time it is to
remain in this city. In Cincinnati, where
the show was put on for three weeks, the
total receipts amounted to $4,000, but in
the last week alone there were five matt
neeS- therefore ne nSureS tndt tne lnui-
annapolis business will exceed that of Gin
cinnati.
The patronage that has been accorded
the "Ben-Hur" production in indianapolis
Is probably greater than any previous at
traction has ever received in this city, all
things considered. AS a matter of course,
practically the whole State will have been
drawn upon by the time the engagement
is ended. From many Of the smaller cit
les of the State parties of from twenty
five to one hundred have engaged seats
for certain performances, and the orders
by mail have been much larger than the
management anticipated. Mr.. Miller as
cribes part Of this phenomenal business &c
the fact that people can come in from
nearby cities on the several interurbar
lines, and after seeing the full performance
get back to their homes by midnight OF
shortly thereafter. 1t is thought hat the
demand for seats for the third week OF
"Ben-Hur' will almost, if not quite, equa
the demand Of either of the preceding
| weeks

HER FACE WAS DEMURE
BUT THE DETECTIVES WANTED
BESSIE SCHRADER BADLY
ShOplifting and Kidnapping Two
Charges Made Against the Young
Girl-A Curious Case.

A good-looking young girl with a face
emure and innocent was arrested by de-
t~ectives at the police station yesterday
morning. She is Bessie Schrader, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. William Schrader, of SOS
Elm street, and the detectives say that
despite her innocent face she is a shop
litter of no mean abilities. They claim. too,
that her arrest clears up the mysterious
disappearance-for a time-of little Anna
Barry, daughter of John Barry. who lives at
566 West Norwood street. TIL girl was
arrested in a manner decidedly unusual.
About four weeks ago the girl called at
the office of the detectives and said she had
been robbed of a gold watch by a young
man in University Park. The description
given of the young man tailed with the
appearance of Harry Dollins, who is well
known to the detectives. Dollins was ar
rested by Detectives Splan and Haley. He
denied stealing the watch and was released
on his own recognizance. The next morn
ing the Schrader girl declared he was
the girls mother appeared and said her
daughter had told her that Dollins had
threatened her life If she accused him Of
stealing the watch. On this
ing held yesterday and the girl appeared
with her mother to prosecute him.. Dollins
was sent to the grand jury.
Detective Lancaster had been detailed
to look after a young woman named "Bes-
SIZE" who was suspected Of shoplifting.
When he saw Bessie Schrader in court
yesterday he noticed at once that she tall
lied with a description he had received
of a woman who had enticed Anna Barry
from school. AS the mother and daughter
were leaving the courtroom Lancaster
walke up TO the girl and requested her
to go to superintendent Tafe's office.
Under a cross-examinaton she admitted
that she had taken Anna Barry with her to
various stores.
The girl, while talking to Superintendent
Taffe, admitted that one day last week
she also had taken the daughter of a
woman living at a2s North Capitol avenue
and made the rounds of the stores. She
denied that she had stolen anything while
the Barry girl was with her. She displayed
three rings that she said she had taken
from an Indiana-avnue jewelry store with
out paying for them. She is seventeen
years old.

Cotton L letter.

c. w. Lee & Co.'S Letter to cothran
 & Co.
 New York. August 5-It is rather pe- today sold around 7.6S nearly nine weeks ago.
 As a result of about three months summer weather, cotton has lost about a dollar a bale. It would not be at all improbable to find January still around 712c two or three weeks from date. Un- der these circumstances we cannot en- courage the short selling of cotton. Au- gust Is by far the most trying month of the season. Cotton men the world over are waiting August developments. Two weeks cold weather would cut down the yield 500000 bales-perhaps more.
 We don't see what inducements are of fered in an already short market to sell more and run the risks necessary in Au- gust of which the crop is decently as- sured. It is another matter. We did our best to keep traders from buying cotton at and over 9c in the spring of the year. We should feel the same prejudice against shorting cotton at 7la when the crop is far from being made, The visible is 400,O. bales less than last year. The crop last year amounted to 10,500,0O0 be- cause some 100000 was carried over from the 1900 crop. This year everything starts bare. No 100000 bales are to come from last year, and we will start the visible with 100000 or 500,000 bales less-a total, say, of 6OO,0OO bales. This means a yield of Il, 100000 would not be much more than the yield of 10250,O0O last season.
 We don't believe the government points to more than 100000. In August the crop loses about four times as much as in June and July together. In a normal season this is 80 per cent. What reasons are there for bearing cotton until tho crop is assured. We would continue to buy on declines.
