California lion, which had been at tracted by the noise, in front of him. He was between the two animals, and concluded tswould be wiser not to shoot the lion. Putting the spurs to his horse, he rode at the lion, trusting he could scare him into the brush. But the lion was not to be bluffed and made a grab for him as he rode past, fastening his claws in the horses flank. The frightened horse gave a great bound and Bergman hit the lion over the face with rope lariat which he had in his hand, and succeeded in breaking the beasts hold.
 As he did so he put more cartridges into his revolver, and then commenced a race such as he would not care to run again. He was so far ahead of the bear that it could not catch him, but the lion still kept on the run, forcing Bergman to fire. His dogs. hearing the noise, came running out and engaged the wounded animal in a fight. The lion got one dog by the throat, killing it. The other dog was badly torn, but will not die

Manager Poli has arranged what promises to be a brilliant sue cessor next week, when the bill will be headed by the famous Genaro and Bailey company in novel and origina. act entitled "A Cigarette Case.'

In the Keith houses they are periodical head. liners and in the other Polls houses they have, on several occasions record ed extraordinary successes, so that, Manager Polf is confident they will prove most popular headliner at the Jacques.

The first of the real high class com edy successes to be offered this season is scheduled for Tuesday evening at Poli's, when Charles Frohman will present the big New York success oF last season, "The Other Girl.' During it's long and successful run in New York last season it was necessary to remove this production from the Cri- terion theater. where it was first pro duced, to the Empire and Lyceum the aters, where it played to crowded houses until the end of the season. '"The Other Grip is one of the undis- puted successes of last season. Its fun was heartily appreciated by the crowded houses that witnessed it and the admirable acting of Lionel Barry more in the role of a champion light, weight pugilist The hunor of the play has a thoroughly New York flavor and is chockful of fun There is not a dull or slow movement in any of the acts. The cast includes Lionel Barrymore, Richard Bennett, Frank Burgeck, Ralph Delmore, Mabel Roe buck, Grace Henderson, Doris Keane, Wallace Edd1nGAr Francis Rvrna Lou

CONTRABAND OF W AR
Russia Amends Rules to Meet .Anglo-American Demands.
FOOD NOT STRICTLY SEIzABLE
May Re Confiscated Only When Com signed to Blockaded Ports or Des- tined For Enemy's FOrces-FueI
 In Same Category.

K e
 ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. H.-Rus. sia's reply to the representations ot the United States and Great Britain regarding contraband of war has beer communicated to their respective em bassies.
 Russia in principle meets the views of the American and British govern. ments regarding foodstuffs and coal and other fuel as being conditional contraband of war, distinctly placing them in the category of articles sus. ceptible of, uses both in war and peace. and as such only confiscable when con. signed to blockaded ports or destined for military or naval forces of the enc. my.
 Shipments in the ordinary course of trade by private persons or firms, even to an enemy's port, may be considered prima facie not contraband, but upon this point distinct reservation is made The simple fact of consignment to pri, vate persons does not preclude the pos sibility that the articles are not ulti. mately destined for belligerent forces and Russia insists that it be not nee. essarily regarded as conclusive evi' dence of the innocent character of the goods. In other words, irregular ships papers or other suspicious circum- stances might vitiate the assumption of innocent character but where such suspicion is raised the burden of proof to warrant legal seizure is to rest upon the captor. Count Lamsdorfi pointed out, however, that captains of merchantmen also owed a duty in such cases.
 Count Lamsdorff's reply was not presented in written form, but was communicated verbally to Ambassador Hardinge It will not involve public amendment of Russian contraband and prize regulations, but in effect it be comes all official interpretation of the original regulations made by the com mission composed of representatives of the ministries of foreign affairs, ma rine, war and justice, which consid- cred the subject in connection with the objections raised by the United States and Great Britain. and as such will hereafter govern naval commanders and prize courts, which thus far in the war have classed all articles enumer- ated in article of the Russian regula- tions as absolute contraband.
 Tn this way Russia preserves her dig nifty by not making an open surrender, at the same time consenting to the in. depreciation asked for by the United States and Great Britain in the inter est of the rights of neutral commerce In some respects, however, there is good ground for the belief that the contention of the United States that railway material and certain kinds ot machinery be classed as conditional contraband will not be accepted. To that extent Count Lamsdorff's reply tc l Ambassador Mccormick may not be satisfactory to the United States.
