BIG STAGE PRODUCTION.
"Prince OF India" Involves s1Ob,OOO
Expenditure.


Chicago, ILL.,, Feb. 5.-What is as
serted to be the most gigantic stage
production ever made in America re-
Jceives its premier at the Colonial
theatre in this city tonight When the
curtain goes up on "The Prince of In
dia" 1t means the elimination of
months Of preparation and rehearsal
and an expenditure exceeding 100000.
The piece has been dramatized from
General Lew Wallace's novel of the
same name by ]. 1. C. Clarke. The
play will be staged in prologue, five
acts and fifteen scenes. Thirty-four
characters from the novel have been
selected to tell the dramatic story.
More than 300 men are employed as
Greek soldiers and Turkish Jan1ssaries
in the battle scenes, and fully 100
young women appear in various minor
roles.
The locale of the scenes, with the
exception of the prologue, is Constan-
tinople and the Turkish shore of the
BospAorus in 1435 A. D. The story,
into which most intense love inter-
est is interviewer, treats OF the his
torical events which led to the ex-
tension of the Turkish empire to Euro
pean soil, and the capture of Con-
stantinople, then under the rule of the
last Constantine, by Mohammed. The
siege and the taking OF the city by the
Janissaries is one of the great spec
tacular features of the drama.

pent Of a parcels-pOst ID we'll under-

many perplexing questions involved
in the proposition which the public
does not understand. He says that
to establish and maintain 1t In cOun-
try where distances are so great as
in the United States and where the,
government is committed to a uniform
rate of postage would involve either,

be compelled to carry them alta loss.
{ He sees no elihOod that the gov.

From general knowledge and infor-
nation of the commission the state
ment is warranted that, since the ac-
QUESTION of the Pennsylvania Railroad
company and companies controlled by
it, the published rates of several rail-
roads named have been better main
tanned and in some instances ad-
vanced, and that there appears to be
less competition in rates between
these lines than was formerly the
case. AS to whether the facts herein
before stated show or tend to show
the violation of the act of congress
referred to in the resolution the COM
mission expresses no opinion.
