giving of the thirty pieces of silver to
Judas, who promises to betray Jesus
into the hands of his enemies.
The presence of Jesus is, of course,
only suggested, but so cleverly is this
done that the spectator seems carried
back nwo thousand years and fancies
himself the actual witness of the great
scenes which accompanied the enact
ment of the greatest tragedy in the his
tory of the world.
Other scenes depict the convulsion
of nature at the moment of the cruci-
fixion, the suicide of the remorseful
Judas and the bringing Of the glad It'd
ings of the resurrection. The entire
play is a drama of simple majesty and
wonderful interest and is presented by
company of sterling players.

NEW YORK, Oct 22.-Rushes were
started on four branches of the Knick-
erbCcker Trust company caused by the
publication of reports of trouble In
every case the demands for cash were
met quickly ard with no apparent
trouble. On lower Broadway a line of
depositors extended into the street and
line formed clear around the Harlem
branch. The directors aided clerks in
the Fifth avenue branch in paying de-
mands. Withdrawals are small" said
Henry Hollins. "At noon no large
amounts have been taken out. We have
plenty of money. The bank examiners
have come and gone"
Payment was temporarily suspended
at the down town branch of the KLick-
erbocker Trust company this after
noon because of cash on hand. They
paid out IS 100000 and say that they
would resume as soon as specie is Sc
cured from the reserve.

agreements, which makes it necessary
for the government to absolutely pro-
hibit combinations. The abuses by the
railroads have brought about these pro-
bibitions and for this reason it is
probable that all must suffer some, the
public as we'll as the corporations. The
trouble is that the idea of cooperation
is lost sight of and the spirit of self

which provides for their sending or
receiving train orders takes effect.
To place it in effect will, however,
cause numerous establishments and it
is likely that the pay of several oper-
ators who now work longer hours than
eight viii be readjusted on basis of
the shorter hours. Telegraph service
at many stations where now operators
arc simply kept for convenience, will
also be discontinued and the operators
transferred to other points because the
work at these points does not warrant
the keeping on duty of three shifts of
operators.
1t is understood that the changes
which the new law will bring about
will be announced soon.
The new law is particular hardship
to the railways at this time because of
the lessening which has occurred in
their revenues recently because of the
financial stringency.
