Guffey Fancies There

the Ground at Dawn

Denver, July 9.-Colonel Guffey, who
was the storm center of last nights
fight on the floor of the convention
was in early consultation with his
lieutenants today and with the ele-
ments outside the delegation who saw
in last nights vote a remaining chance
to overcome Bryan's strength. He had
little to say on the result and he would
not discuss the vote in detail, but SEEM
ed to think that while it demonstrated
a heavy current of opposition to the
plans of those controlling the conven-
ton, Bryan might develop greater
strength on the presidential ballot than
he did on the question last night. But
the total of 3S9 votes inspired the al
lied opposition with new hopes.
Tried to Avoid Vote.
1t developed in this connection that
a strong effort was made to avoid the
vote of last night, as the Bryan mana
gers desired not to have an issue which
would disclose the strength of the two
contending elements. Guffey men say
the report on credentials was delayed
further while overtures were made tc

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-The first
week of the grand opera season in
New York and Philadelphia closed to-
night upon some of the greatest tri-
umphs ever recorded in the history of
the Metropolitan opera house.
Seldom has the 400" of either city
had the privilege of seeing such a
costly array of beauty and talent as
characterize the reigning aggregations
in both cities, but especially does New
York consider itself fortunate in that
the present company includes nearly all
of the singers who in the past have
proved the most popular in critical
Gotham.
Even staid and surfeited New York
has to admit that in the week just
closed it has experienced many thrills
of keenest pleasure. The vast throngs
which have attended the various bills,
including Aida" Die Walkure," La
Traviata," Madam Butterfly" and La
Boheme," have gone wild in their at
tempts to show their appreciation OF
the distinct charms and talents of the
stars who so far have sung.
Each singer has Wed with the other
as seldom before in an effort to eclipse
the magnificent success attained by the
singer of the previous night or mat

the noted stars seem TO be in their
best voice they have exerted them.
selves to get the lions share of eclat.
1t has been of no avail, however, for
each of the stars has received an ova-
ton that could not be exceeded, even
If some successor should deserve it.
Costuming and scenic effects also
have eclipsed all efforts of previous
seasons, which may account in part for
the fact that the opera attendance for
the opening week is declared to have
ec1ipsed all records.
The opera season opened with Verdi's
Aida" Nine. Emmy Destinn in the
title role and Mines. Homer and
Sparkes and MN. Caruso, Scott, Didur,
Rossi and Bada in the cast.
Geraldine Farrar will make her first
appearance this season in Madam
Butterfly"
Other women stars who appeared
during the week were Mines. Gadski,
Frenistad Fornia, Sembrich Eames
and Randa.
Much interest has been aroused by
the announcement that the Metropol-
itan opera house directors will award
a substantial prize for the best OPP
cratic score composed by musician
born in the United States. This is to
stimulate and encourage American
composers to come forward with their
genius.
According to arrangements so far,
an author may take any text he de-

has not been used before. The book
is to be written by a librettist of any
nationality Full details of the offer

1Bx Associated Press.l

BERLIN, Nov. H-Emperor william
made his first appearance in public
today since his interview with Chan
cellor Won Buelow last Tuesday, when
the prince urged upon his majesty the
necessity Of speaking and acting only
on the advice of his responsible min
listers, and he gave a striking example
of his readiness to observe the obliga-
ton then laid upon him.
The occasion was the centennial cele-
bration of the city council. When the
emperor arose to ascend the tribune,
Prince Won Buelow stepped forward
and iInpressively handed him printed
sheet, and the emperor, ignoring his
general custom of speaking extempo-
raneously, confined his remarks to
what was on this paper.
After a few formal expressions, his
majesty made the following reference
TO recent occurrences:

bond of loyalty and affection, which.
from ancient times in our fatherland
has so closely joined the king and
citizens, the prince and people, always

the emperor must have felt was un-
