situations when be wrote 1.-THE Man from
Mexico" Taking for his principal char
acter, Fizhugh, man about town, he
placed him in the embarrassing position of
being compelled to 60 to prison for thirty
days for assulting q cab driver. This
convivial chap Is married, and in order to
keep his secret from his wife and daugh
ter, he tells them he is to take q trip to
Mexico. He has friend who helps him
In this scheme, but this friend is 80 eager
to straighten out matters that in his eager
ness he only complexities them the more.
Fitzhugh is taken to Jail and there we
find him with number of other prisoners,
when his wife, and daughter and several
other ladies of his acquaintance, all OF
whom are members of a prison society
which has for its object the carrying OF
cheer and sunshine to the unfortunates,
make their monthly visit to Blackwell
Island. Fitzhugh, however, with the aid
of the warden, manages to escape detec'
ton, but not without suffering number
of severe heart attacks.
Finally the thirty days are up, and
Fitzhugh returns to his home. His wife,
to surprise him, decorated the home with
Mexican colors, puts on a Mexican Gus
tome, prepares a Mexican meal, masters
some of the Mexican language, learns a
Mexican dance, and. In fact, does every
thing up to the Mexican taste. Fitzhugh,
in order to create an impression, also gets
Mexican custome, and when he arrives
home and sees the Mexican reception that
awaits him-well, you can just imagine
the funny scenes that follow. OF course,
there is o good deal more to the play than
the story outlined here. But this is the
principal plot, and one can readily picture
for ones self how amusing 1t must be.
The play Is In three acts, the second show
ing the prison, and here some of the fun
niest situations occur.
In the forthcoming production William
| Ingersoll will play the leading part-that
of Fitzhugh, and Miss Lillian Lawrence
will be seen as Mrs. Fitzhugh.
Three beautiful stage settings are now
being prepared by Stage Director Harry
McRae Webster, who promises to give the
play an exceptionally artistic mounting

sion Is Now Found.

Hopewel Cape. n. b., April Com

der of Mary Ann McAulay at New

A FINE OF $4,000
Imposed on Great Northern Railroad
for Granting Rebates.

New York. April 1.-THE Great
Northern Railway Co. was convicted
of granting rebates to the American
Sugar Refining Co. by jury in the
United States circuit court today
Judge Holt imposed a fine of $4,000 on
the Great Northern Railway Co for
rebate He dismissed an action charg-
ing rebating against the Northern
Steamship Co.
The shipments of sugar on when
rebates We're paid were made to Sioux
City, Iowa. in 1902. The rebates were
paid in 1904.
The trial was begun before Judge
Holt and a jury yesterday and was
completed during the day. Judge Holt
charged the jury and his interpreta-
ton of the law strongly favored the
governments contention. Had the
case been civil one, and not criml-
nal action, the court said it would
have instructed the jury to return a
verdict in favor of the complainant,
but being a criminal action, the law
did not permit such instructions.

LEAK IN Navy DEPART.
MENT IS DISCLOSED,
Investigation Of Li||ey Charges Reveals
the Fact That Someone Gave
Out Confidential Reports,

Washington, April THE navy de-
partment and not the Electric Boat
Co. was virtually under investigation
today by the special House committee
inquiring into charges preferred
against that company by Lilley. The
question as to whether the company
had used illegitimate means to promote
legislation in it's favor was forgotten
in the admission made by a witness to
the effect that he had secured ex-
tracts of reports made to the navy de-
partinent supposed to be confidential
The witness was Robert G. Skerrett
of New York. formerly employed in
the navy department and at one time
the European representative of the
Lake Torpedo Boat Co. He stated
frankly that while in the employ of
the Lake Co. he received extracts from
reports made to the navy department
and that he used the extracts in tech
meal articles prepared for publication
iii magazines.
Questioned as to their source, he re-
piled that he did not know from whom
they came and that he had accepted
them as correct and used them in his
testimony came when he was asked
by Chairman Boutell if he did not con-
slider that his action in publishing in
formation which the United States
government regarded as secret was
"hi9hly dishonorable."
His reply was: "No, ] think it was
in9iscreet.'
1t is the evident intention of the
committee to follow UP this new line

or evidence and if possible discover
the leak in the navy department.
1t is doubtful if witness before a
congressional committee ever was put
through a more searching examination
than Mr.. Skerrett
The first report to which reference
was made was one proposed by Lieut.
Nelson, U. S. N, who conducted a Sc
RES of trials of the Holland boat at
Narragansett in 1904. While abroad
Mr.. Skerrett wrote an article on sub
marines in which he quoted from Lieut..
Nelson's report.
"Where did you get this report?
asked Mr. Stephens.
II do not remember" answered the
witness.
While in Berlin, ne said, he received
typewriter extracts from various nav
al reports in plain envelopes. There
was no writing on them to indicate
who had sent them and he had no idea
from whom they had come They were
forwarded from Washington through
the office of the Lake Co. in Bridge
port. An article the witness had writ
ten concerning details Of the Holland
boat was next taken up. Mr.. Littleton
through the committee pressed the
witness as to where he got his infor-
nation.
Mr.. Sherrctt said it had been given

poets for an early settlement of the
strike of the $4,000 Southwestern coal
miners was put off today when the
operators made certain demands which
