SLUMP IMPENDING

New York, July 10.-Ex-Judge E. H.
Gary, chairman Of the United States
Steel Corporation, the largest business
enterprise in the world, sailed for Eu-
rope yesterday for a brief holiday. He
was asked by the World how he view
ed the financial and commercial out
lcck.
1t would be surprising" he replied
IF with the prevailing conditions there
would not be some diminution in the
volume Of business during the rest of
this year. The business Of our own COM
pany In the last six months has exceed
ed that of the first six months of last
year and we know that 1906 was a big
year I had all the presidents Of our
constituent companies here last week
for a general talk over the situation
before my departure. Every one OF them
was exceedingly optimistic, They could
see nothing ahead but sound conditions
and continued prosperity. Despite this
look for some contraction"
Judge Gary was asked what the con-
ditions were that would produce a
diminution in the general volume Of

business. He replied
no begin with. next year is q Pres
dental election year. This has always
had the effect of causing a curtailment
of orders the latter part of the proceed
ing year and the first part Of the cleo
tion year. Business men do not care to
undertake new enterprises or order
quite so heavily in the face Of uncer-
tain political conditions.
The second point Is that we have
beer doing too much business for the
amount of money that has been avail
able to finance our needs 1t is well
known that various corporations,
among them many railroads, have had
difficulty ins securing capital requisite
to their continued growth on the scale
that has prevailed The steel corpora

this difficulty.

THE EUTERPEAN QUARTET.

New York critics have welcomed David Bispham. Americas greatest baritone. in a manner that will great ly please the music lover of Water bury, who are awaiting his appear ance at the concert of the Euterpean quartet in this city on Tuesday even ing. October 22, in the Buckingham Music hall. MT Bispham opened his season last Sunday afternoon with a recital in Carnegie hall and the mu- sical critics on all the big papers were unanimous in declaring he still had the right to call himself Ameri- ca's greatest baritone The World had a particularly complimentary notice about him. The Sun said among other things: Tt will be pleasant to Mr Bispham's friends who were not at the concert to know that he was iE better voice than he has been at any other time in recent seasons and that his singing was characterized hy it's usual inteIIi- gence and taste" Mir BisDhan will render his most notable successes at the EuteTpean concert here.

VAUDEVILLE.

Edwin Stevens presents a real nov city at the Jacques this week in "A Night Off" The offering isn't as much of sketch as it is a mono logue. It serves to provide a means for the clever Eeadliner to give one of the most sparkling entertainments of the season. MT Stevens is a past master at refined comedy and he fur nishes rich entertainment every mo- ment he is on the stage. Not only is his quiet comedy work attractive, but his singing. too, is worth hearing. Tn Morocco" is a spectacular sketch with more than fourteen players. The drilling. wall scaling and Moor ish dancing make up one of the finest things of it's kind ever seen here. Curtis Palmer and Hamilton in Mammals Darling Boy" is a laugh able sketch, which makes big hit. Miss Nettie Vesta, the charming com edienne. has won her way into the favor of local theater goers by her clever work, and the supporting bill is excellent. The doll drill is now on at the Jacques.

GRACE GEORGE.

Frank Worthing, who is again playing with Grace George this sea- son and who will be seen at Polls theater this evening in "Divorcons," has probably been associated with more celebrated stars than any other actor of his years. Beginning as a very young man at .$5 week, he served long apprenticeship in stock companies in England, Then Mrs Patrick Campbell engaged him for her production of ''As You Like It" and later he took the late Charles Coghlan's place with Mrs Langtry. At the close of that season MT Worth ing was booked by Olga Nethersole, and it was shortly after this that Au- gustin Daly brought him to America as leading man for Ada Rehan. With her he played two seasons in New York and one in London. MT Worth ing has remained on the American stage ever since with the exception of some short special engagements in London during the season, as for instance this summer with Grace Grace George at the Duke of York S theater. Nearly seven years ago he was leading man with Grace George in Her Majesty" and he has held the same position with Julia Mar lowe, Amelia Bingham, Annie Rus sell and Margaret Anglin. It is said that as Henri Prunnelles in "Divor- cons" MT Worthing accomplishes the best work of his artistic career. Prices 25 to S2. Seats now on sale. No free list.

THE RED MILL"

''The Red Mill' returns to Polls theater on Saturday, October 19, where it will be given an afternoon and evening performance. This will mark it's second visit to this city. The company is now returning from one of the most prosperous tours ever made in New England, being greeted at every point by an audi ence which packs the theater to the doors. AS will be recalled the music is by Victor Herbert, far and away the best of the composers of light music in this country. The scenes are laid in Holland in little Dutch village, and the piece is said to con- tain great many possibilities, of which every advantage has been taken. The Red Mill" will be pre- sented here after the seasons run at the Knickerbocker theater, New York city, where it proved to be one of the most important musical successes of many years. Prices, matinee 25 cents to $1, evening 25 cents to $50.

Busy Day For Inventor.

Busy Day For Inventor.
 It has been busy day here for Mar conf and the staff of operators at the wireless station, which has been all day in perfect connection with Clifden. in Ireland. Further tests across the Atlantic have been in every respect as satisfactory as those of the previous days. The staff has perfected arrange ments with it's New York, London and Montreal offices for the division of the patronage of the worlds press.
 The indications are that many thou sands of words will be handled today. Every one concerned here with the opening of the actual commercial serv- ice toward which Marconi has worked so confidently and so steadily for the last six years is enthusiastic over the first experiment. The tremendous sig nifcance of the inauguration of the service appeals to them.
 Specially expert telegraphers have been engaged to take charge of the forwarding and sending on of the mes sages received by the wireless service. The large amount of business received and the most satisfactory results of the exhaustive tests of the last few days confirm in every particular Mar cOni's long held belief that transat- lantic wireless service was a practical commercial venture.
 Operators Thoroughly Drilled. Signor Marconi has been drilling his operators here both day and night He has watched them untiringly. He is satisfied they are competent to handle the keys under all conditions and that they understand the instruments they are handling. The illness of his expert has depressed the inventor, but it has not dcterred' him from carrying out his programme. &-..-.--.
 From Clifden comes word that the operators there are equally expert. It also sent word that connections have been made with the British postoffice telegraphs. Connections also have been made with the Canadian Pacific tele- graph companies.
 The system is now open to conner cial business. The commercial rate will be 10 cents per word and the press rates , cents between Port MOrien and Clifden.
 The reported success of the expert ments through which Signor Marconi has perfected the sending and receiv- ing machinery of his transatlantic wireless system recalls his romantic marriage two years ago. when he mar ried the Hon. Beatrice O'Brien, fifth daughter of Lady Inchiquin.
 It was recalled at that time that the mother of the Ttali .n inventor also was an Irish colleen at the time of her marriage. being Miss Annie Jameson. daughter of John Jameson. the famous Dublin whisky manufacturer.

PRYOR'S BAND.

Pryor. the worlds greatest eX- ponent of the trombone, will play his 5,2S6th solo at Polls Monday, October 21, matinee and night, and it is already practically assured that one of the largest audiences of the season will greet this famous artist, who, with himself, presents com pany of soloists eminently superior to all other similar aggregations. MT Pryor displays q remarkable number of valuable and beautiful medals, symbolic of the loving esteem and substantial favor in which he is held among the different communities where he has delighted his appre- ciative audiences. Prices. matinee 25, 35 and 50 cents, evening 25, 35, 50 and 75 cents.

The pictures were shown one after the other without a single break all evening. Nicholas Parker of New York was the singer and never was singer given more generous and we'll deserved applause. His choice of songs was varied and pleased every body. Next Sunday night the mana gers have secured George W. Graham. who is creating a big sensation with his songs in every picture house in which he appears. Perfect order was maintained and this is one thing that the management will most emphat- ically insist on. The pictures are furnished by the New York amuse- ment. company and they promise an equally attractive programme for next Sunday night.

Marconi Sends Initial Wireless
 Message Across Atlantic.
THE TEST IS SATISFACTORY
Sir Wifrid laurier, Premier of the De- rinion of Canada, FeIieitates Eng fish People Upon the Establishment of New Means of Communication.

Glace Bay, x. S., Oct. 17.-Despite the illness of one of Marconi's expert ! operators who is said to be dying, the first wireless message across the At lantic was sent today. The indafatig- able inventor who has been so tire lessly working to perfect his machin- cry transmitted this message from here to the Clifden station on the Irish coast.
 The message was from Sir Wilfrid Laurer, premier of the Dominion of Canada, to the London Standard. In it Sir Wilfrid congratulated the Eng fish people upon the establishment of this new means of communication be- tween Great Britain and Canada.
 Marconi said that every word, every letter of the message was received at Clifden with the distinctness that a message is now delivered in London from New York over the Atlantic ca bles.
 Upon the accomplishment of his promise the entire commercial world has waited. for if wireless messages can be thus transmitted across the At lantic it means complete revolution in present mrthOdS
