season for the first time on any stage
Count Alexis Tolstoi's poetic tragedy,
| Ivan the Terrible" Mr. Mansfield be-
! lieveS that in these days, when the dra-
matte appetite has become stated with
| commonplace, it will be n relief to wit
ness stirring scenes set in the glitter of a
Senli-barbaric court in the old days of the

grand market place view which will
nee essitate the employment of several
! hundred persons. Mr.. Mansfield will also
add to his repertoire the romantic com

form. This. too, will be large produc-

in Germany and England. and Mr.. Mans

Ever since the idea was first suggested
of having moving platforms along the
route of 4 surface railway on the New
) York side connecting the BROOKLYN bridge
with the new Williamsburg bridge. now
| near completion, the cry against it was
that it would be too costly. Now Il syndT-
cate announces that Cornelius Wander
bilt, Stuyvesant Fish and other million
aires are ready to subscribe all the
money that is needed for the plan The
syndicate declares that Il railway should
be run underground to the Battery, with
loops at intervals, and that there be n
continuous train of moving platforms and
twelve stations between the two bridges.
! The knowledge that the Vanderbilt mill
} lions are behind the syndicate has given
Il new impetus to the proposition, and the
: chances are that the city may accept it.
) If it does at the end of fifty years the
railway.wiE become city property.
