4Tshe Thief,s Al The Grnnd.

It would be absurd to attempt to de- scribe the play at the Grand Friday night in mere inane words. To be fas- cinated one must see it, description Is inadequate. Miss ShanGon was at her best, and at her best the lovable It, tie woman Is irresistible.
 "The Thief" Is being played by an all star cast, and play more vibrant with action is not on the stage today.
 Every detail of the setting has been attended to with a taste and elegance that makes a fitting frame for the art ists, and the whole presentation leaves even the most critical satisfied.
 Herbert Kelsey's part Is so well handled that Miss Shannon is put tn her mettle to retain her prestige in the leading role, and yet the characters are so diametrically opposed that they throw each other In bold relief
 Leonard Ide. who played "The Imp" in When We Were Twenty -One." takes a part somewhat similar in The Thief and except for an enumeration a trlfie exaggerated. handled his work re- markedly well.
 Edith Blair the Juno of the Ameri- can stage. has been most happily chos- en for the part she plays, and by her splendid work strongly brings out a lesser role. It is seldom in these pro- saic days of the positively last appear ance" of stars who were setting when Patti wore a bib. that one sees a woman so beautiful. but two magnIn- cent women almost embarrass the play with riches.
 In the part he plays Charles Dalton is called on for his best, and Mfr. DaI- toms best knows no superior. Arthur Lawrence and Cecil Owen handle their work very acceptably, and certainly the principals have no complaint io make of their support.
 ''The Thief" is decided departure from the timo honored drama. and ii may be said that Henri Bernstein's lat est work is his best. Luckily for Mont. gomery the play will be put on at the Grand at matinee today and again to. night,

Desirous of obtaining the next an- nual reunion of the Confederate Vet. erans of Alabama for Montgomery, the members Of Camp Lomax. discussed the matter exhaustively at their week. iy meeting Friday night. the discus- sion resulting in the decision to confer with the Commercial Club, as the rep. resentative body of citizens, before presenting MontgomerY's bid at the Mobile gathering.
 [ It, Is understood that the project of holding the next reunion in this city was almost universally favored by the veterans present at the meeting of the camp, and there Is little doubt. in view of the favorable attitude of the Commercials Club toward such saffairs, but that the conference will result in q final decision to ask that the 1908 reunion be held here.
 Commander John B. Fuller. of the camp, was authorized to name dele- gates and alternates to the Mobile re- union. which duty will be fulnlled later.

ss Kansas Ctty, OCts pu--W. 1. NsaN6S Iv. former Comptroller of the Currency. and now president of the National BanK of Commerce of Kansas City, was inis afternoon shown the report from New York stating that in the trial oI Charles ". Morse, former Congressman T1ttle6eId. counsel for Mir. Morse, had agsarted hat "ComptroIIer Ridgeiy. in those conversations not only absolved MT. Morse from all responsibility con- cernins the affairs of the Bank of North America, but even discussed going Into the banking business with him."
 Mfr, RidReIy, in a written statement today declared that there was absolute iy no truth whatever in such state Tnent. The letters read during the trial, he said. show that instead of ab- solving Mfr. Morse from all responsi- bility, the bank had been severely crit icized for the loans to Mir Morse and the interests he represented, and when MT Morse retired from the bank the in- veeti@akion which had led to this trial Was azflmediately started by Mir Ridge iy, who was at that time Comptroller of the Currency.
 MT. RIdgely stated that he never at any time discussed going into the bank ing business with Mir. Morse except that Mir Morse asked him to accept the presidency of the Mercantile National Bank and he absolutely refused to con- slider such 8 proposition except on the condition that Mir. Morse and Mir. Heinze and all t..e interests they rep. resented, would sell out to Mir.

New York, Oct. 30--For more than six hours today Charles ". Morse, who a year ago. was one of the dominant figures in Wall Street. sat in the wit ness chair in the criminal branch of the United States Circuit Court. en- deavoring to defend the financial operations in connection with the Ma tionai Bank of North America, which resulted in the indictments of himself and Alfred H. Curtis on charges of conspiracy and violation of the na- tional banking laws.
 When United States District Attor- ney Stimson took up the cross exani- nation for the government. sharp questions were put to the financier. MT. Morse on the defensive, was at his best. Several times he refused to answer questions unless he were per mitted to explain himself at length He spared cieveriy with Mir. Stimsor and a number of times rather than in- sist upon an answer to a question with an explanation accompanying 1t, MT. Stimson withdrew the question.
 Mir. Stimson sprang surprise upon Mfr Morse when he took up loan oi more than si25,00o made to MISS Katherine A.
