NO STRINCENCY
IN PORTLAND
BUSINESS HAS RESUMED NOR
NAL CONDITIONS-BANKs ARE
PAYING CASH-BRIGHT OUT
LOOK FOR NEW YEAR

"The money situation is practi-
cally normal in Portland, and to all
appearances the financial crisis is
over as far as that city is concern
.ed,," said G. w. Mount, general
agent for the o. R. & N. in Lewis
ton, this afternoon, on his return to
his Office from business trip to the
company's headquarters in the Rose
City.
Everything is again on a cash
basis, and all of the clearing house
certificates have been recalled. At
the banks the payment of checks has
been resumed, and business has re-
covered from the temporary check
it received.
1.-THE regaining of confidence in
Portland will, ] believe, mean the
resumption of business to a better
degree in Lewiston, as neither banks
nor business men will feel that they
must guard so carefully against the
outlay of cash as has been the case
for the last two months. The sit
uation seems to me much improved
and the outlook for a prosperous
year unusually good. in view OF the
heavy crops now moving throughout
the Northwest"

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-with
the approach of the reconvening of
congress, there is renewed talk Of
financial legislation The house
and senate committees will both ref
sumo sittings on the subject and iel
now looks as if there might be-
something of a rivalry between the
two committees as to which wiIl
present the bill.
While the house committee is an
parently inclined to what is known
as an asset currency, the senate
committee is proceeding on the the
DRY that only very limited list or
securities should be accepted for the
increased issue to be provided for In
the bill. So far, there has been no
agreement as to the percentage of
increase in the volume of the cur
rency, but the inclination of senat-
ors seems to be to permit as large
an augmentation as the conditions
of the banks Justify.

new SOPRANO
MUSIC LOVERS OF THE METRoP-
OILS HAVE GREAT EXPECTA.
TONS IN ENGAGEMENT OF
TETRAZZINI NEXT WEEK

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.--Music low
ers of New York are awaiting
with the liveliest interest the COM
ing of Nine Tetrazzini, the new coll
oratura soprano, who sails from
England on La Lorraine tomorrow
to begin her engagement at the
Manhattan Opera house. Her first
appearance will be made week after
next in "Traviata. Already every
seat in the Manhattan Opera house
has been sold for this performance.
But a short time ago Nine. Te-
traZzini was unknown to the must
cal public-today she is ranked with
Patti and Melba. Some competent
critics even go so far as to place
her above any other singer who has
been heard by the present genera
ton.
The new and dazzling star of the
operate stage is not quite 80 years
old. Like De Reszke and Caruso,
she has practically been her own in
structor For six months she studied
under Signor Ceccherini. She made
her debut in the small part of Inez
in "L'AfricainO," in her native city
of Florence. and she was paid 800
a month. Later she went to Rome,
and afterward spent four years in
South America. The next seven
years were spent in Russia, where
she met with great success.
Her first big success in a leading
part was as Violetta at Buenos
, Ayres. 1t was said that her per-
Torrance was so realistic that a
physician asked permission to ex-
anime her because he thought she
was suffering from consumption. She
Is nervous and excitable before she
appears on the stage, but after the
first notes have been sung she
throws herself into the part and
forgets all but that.
During her recent engagement al
Covent Garden she was hailed as the
greatest singer heard there in
years. The plaudits of London have
brought her contract for the next
three years at the Manhattan Opera
house in this city. 1t was nip and
tuck between the rival managers
Hammerstein and Conreid. as to whC
should secure the services of the
new star. The manager of the Man.
haitian finally won out, but only
after he had made an offer to the
diva that hardly anyone could re.
sist. Nine. Tetrazzini will be paid
J $1,000 for each of her appearances
at the Manhattan Opera house this
winter. During the second season
according to the terms of the con,
tract. she will be paid $4,000 &
night, and for the third season the
nav will reach the enormous sun
of $4,000 for each performance.
