ARNOLD DAILY
FILES PETITION
IN BANKRUPTCY

New York. Oct. 19-Arnold Daily. actor
and theatrical manager and chief expon-
ent IN this country OF the dramatic writ
ings OF George Bernard Shaw. has filed
petition In bankruptcy. with known la
bilities OF sl0.41 and no available assets.
M. DAILY. who gives his residence as No.
12S West Forty fourth street. which Is the
Lambs club. claims exemption for cloth
ing of $500 and an equal amount for the
atrical wardrobe.
In the petition II is set forth that he
has 80 shares of stock In the Arnold DAILY
company, but that 1t is pledged with
Lee Shubert. His life insurance amounts
to 5000 In the Mutual Life Insurance
company, but the policy for this has also
been pledged to the company for loan
OF 500. He Is also insured for $4,000 In
the Equitable Life Assurance society
but, possibly with dramatic irony, he puts
in this policy as OF no value.
Creditors named are the Mechanics and
Traders bank. s5075. on a note Endorsed
by Lee Shubert. the knickerbocker Trust
company, $1,000. money lent: the Mutual
Life Insurance company, 500. secured; /;
Senator William II. Reynolds. Brooklyn,
$1400, and the Arnold DAILY company, $1,000.
Although still a young man, Mr.. DAILY
has had an extensive stage experience,
his reputation resting chiefly on his iden-
tifcation with the Shaw plays. When he
first undertook the production OF some Of
the boder works OF the eccentric British
dramatist the actor was warned that the
experiment was daring one, and he
found Ii so when managers universally
declined to risk their money in the ven-
ture and he was obliged TO bear the ex-
pense himself.
Several OF the plays achieved success,
but the final blow came when he pro-
duced Mrs. Warren's Profession at the
Garrick Theatre. The argument OF this
play had been widely advertised In ad-
vance and as a result officials OF the po-
lice department were present on the first
night. They so strongly disaproved of
the production that the theatre was
closed by their orders.

WAGES OF
RUSSIAN LABORERS.

The extreme poverty and the low stan
dard OF living OF peasants from whom
the agricultural laborers are recruited
assure a low level OF wages for agricul-
tural labor. The average wages will ap-
pear almost incredibly low from an Amer
lean point OF view. Notwithstanding the
general complaints OF the estate holders
concerning the unreasonable demands
OF the laborera
According TO an oficial investigation
embracing the decade OF fSs2-iS9i, the
average annual wages for a male agri-
cultural worker In Russia were less
than s32 and for a female worker less
than SIS. To this must be added the
cost OF subsistence. which Is equally
low, being on an average s24 for a male
and s72 for n female worker for a whole
year; so that the average cost OF en-
ploying a laborer for the entire year is
equal TO only SIS for the male and $40
for the female.
The wages for the summer season Of
FIVE months are almost equal TO the an
nual wages. being t22 for the male and
sl3 for the female laborer.-From the

GUNS TESTED IN
THE OPEN SEA

Portsmouth. England. Oct. 1.-THE
British battleship Dreadnought carried
out her gun trials In the open sea yester-
day with the most satisfactory results.
Officers of the highest rank and expert
enced in ordinance matters were present.
After the tests OF the lighter guns the
Dreadnought fired her 10 and pinch guns,
first singly, then in pairs, and finally all
eight Of them, composing her broadside,
simultaneously. Each gun was loaded
with the full service charge OF 265 rounds
OF cordite and an 1S50-pound projectile.
The vessel stood the strain OF the enor-
nous broadside splendidly. There was
not the slightest disturbance to her struc-
ture and only slight damage to the lighter
fittings OF her superstructure Admiralty
officials are most pleased with the out
come of the trials.
The discharge OF all OF the Dread
noughts 10 and 12-inch guns simutane-
ously represented three tons Of metal In
projectiles. The roar OF this salvo was
heard plainly in Portsmouth and all over
the Isle OF Wight.
The Dreadnought will now be finished
for the accommodation of a full crew and
will then receive her maiden commission
in the Atlantic fleet.

lively runaway occurred on Water

belonging to A. ]. Hean took fright and
dashed down that thoroughfare without a

trians and vehicles along the course taken
by the frightful animal and there were a
number OF hairbreadth escapes from col
lisions. When in front of the grocery
store OF John Batchelder the horse sue
ceeded in freeing itself from the wagon
TO which II was attached and continued
on its gallop a considerable distance fur
ther down Water street, where IL was
secured and led back to the owners barn.
The horse received a number OF cuts
and bruises about the legs, though not of
a serious nature. while the harness was
wrecked and the wagon was somewhat
damaged. The animal Is used by Mr..
Hean on one OF his grocery delivery wa
gons and a short while ago 1t did stunts
on the highway, where IL had been left
standing with a heavy weight attached to
its bride, but the driver secured II before
any damage was done.

was 60 feet long by 30 feet high. was
knocked down by the 39th shot. and the
s0th shot was not fred.
The nearest approach TO the work OF
:hc Maine was that Of the Missouri,
which made - hits out OF possible Al.
The record OF the Maine figures out 70 per
cent. for the G-nch guns. There was
moderate sea running at the time or the
firing, which interfcred with the gunnefs'
