Louis Mann's Pronounced Triumph In
The Second Fiddle.

LUG SCSOHu
Brattleboro audiences are proverbially
cold, but they moved from the Iceland
border into the warmth, luxuriance and
spontaneity of tropical enthusiasm on
Thursday evening. when Louis Mann as
star and his excellent company appeared
in The Second Fiddle. Seldom, If ever.
have such demonstrations OF approval
been seen in town, and curtain calls were
the rule, the climax being reached at the
end OF the second act. when Mr.. Mann
was actually compelled to address his
admirers in a few well-chosen words OF
acknowledgment and pleasantly. The
play is a dramatlzation of a story which
Gordon Blake wrote for a magazine 20
years ago, and 1t furnishes a satisfactory
medium for the exploitation of the talents
of Mr. Mann, who puts into it his own
personality and invests il with an in
dividuality so strongly that il is impossi-
BILE to separate Leopold and Louis. He
has distinct pathetic power, as well as
comedy, and he acts every moment while
he is on the stage. He touches the sym
pathetic chords in his audience, and
handles them so delicately so skilfully,
that 1t is only when the play is over and
analysis begins that the critic recognizes
that Mr. Mann's presentation Is art and
not nature. He is we'll supported every
member of the company contributing to
the success. Georgia Welles as Paula is
dainty, delicate and artistic. Edward See
as Loriot, the director of the theatre,
gives an effective impersonation, and Irene
Frizele in a minor part gives promise
of a future in her career The support
accorded by Mr.. Lyndal, Mr.. Dade, Miss
Bingham, Miss Revell and the others is
more than usually satisfactory The stage
settings are unusual, and the costuming
excellent Brattleboro was extremely
fortunate i'm being able to see such a
finished and satisfactory production and
is under debt of gratitude to Manager
Fox in bringing here one of the greatest
successes of the season in New York and

CATTLE SHIPPING BEGINS.
At Least 10000 Head Will be Sent
From Belle Eourche.

Belle Fourche S. D.. Sept. 20.-The
cattle shipping season has begun. Not
only the farmers in this state, but the
stock men also will have good bank
accounts by the close of the season.
The cattleman who owns a few head
of stock and the one who owns thous-
ands and controls sections of land are
alike benefited by the good prices and
the favorable weather conditions. This
will be one of the largest shipping sea-
sons ever known in this section and this
is the great cattle section of South
Dakota. At least 10000 head of cattle
will be shipped from this point, beirs
brought in from ranches within a ra-
brought in from the ranches and rang
es within the radius of 90,000.000. The
receipts will amount to something like
So OOO, 900 AS the market price for cat
tie was very low last year many of the
cattle We're held over until this season.
Now that the demand is good and pri-
ces high these cattle are all being
shipped. The weather has been so fa-
yorable that 1t has been easy for the
cattle to get fat and heavy on the ran
ges, and the ranges are still in excel
lent condition for winter. The rail-
roads are taxed to their capacity. and
the Northwestern, which handles all
the cattle from this point, is working
extra men and numbers of extra trains
daily. Prospects are good for favor

PACKERS FIND FLAW
Claim That the Manner in Which the
Grand Jury That investigated Them
Was Drawn Was Unconstitutional
and Plea in Abatement is Issued.

Chicago, Sept. 20.-A plea In abate-
ment was filed today by the packers
indicted in the United States district
court on the charge of conspiracy to
monopolize the meat industry. The
plea is not supported b., affidavits. 1t
is signed by the defendants and their
attorneys.
1t is said the main question to be
raised when the plea is finally taken
before the judge, will be concerning
the secrets surrounding the drawing
of the grand jury 1t is argued that
the grand jury, under constitutional
laws, shall be drawn in public. That
any person who feels that he may be
Investigated by jury, may be present
and see the names drawn from the box
and know who the, persons are. This
is declared the constitutional right of
every citizen, and was SO contemplated
by congress when the act was passed.
1t is charged in the plea that the date
of drawing was kept profound Sc
cret and the packers were unable to
learn who had been selected to sit upon
their case, although the government
had an opportunity to investigate each
of the men whose names had been
drawn. Four men connected with the
Schwarzchild & Sulzberger packing
concern, named in the indictments
charging them with accepting railroad
rebates, are now in Chicago. They
have been notified to appear before
Judge Humphrey tomorrow to plead to
the i'm ictment. They are Samuel We'll.

INDICTED OVER YEAR AGO
Telegram Announcing Arrest s;ys His
Vessel Has Been Chartered Under
New Name and Is Manned by the
Choicest Band of Robbers and Cut
Throats Since Captain Kidd

Washington, Sept. 20.-Capt. Alex
ander Mclean was arrested Monday
last at Victoria, Il. c., by Canadian
authorities at the request of the Amer
lean consul acting for the department
of justice under an Indictment OBJ
tanned more than a year ago at San
Francisco on the charge of conspiracy
in fitting out the schooner Carmen
cita" in violation of the sealing laws.
A telegram was received at the state
department today announcing the ar
rest and says: "Carmencita" had been
relitted under the name of Acapulco"
of alleged Mexican registry, and with
a crew made up of men said to be as
"choice band of robbers and cut
throats as have manned "a pirate craft
since the days of Captain Kidd"
The search for Mclean has proceed
ed since May, 1904. His movements
have been known the greater part Of
this time, but his course in his pelagic
sealing cruises has been conducted
so cleverly and with SO sharp observ-
ance of the letter of the law that it is
said he has made these very techni-
calities cover his alleged evasions of
the law For instance, he has always
been careful not to be found within
the three-mile limit of sealing reserves
and although an American, carrying
in large part an English crew. he has
not been registered under either Amer
lean or British laws. On that account
the reciprocal arrangement between
these countries for the protection of
the sealing industry has not been ap-
piled. He has operated under both
and apparently has been successful in
retaining one or the other, despite the
fact that he forfeited his Mexican pa
