cels her in the grandeur of her cli- maxes and in the intensity of her emo ttonal contrasts.
 In her renditoin of Bach. the open ing humber. she displayed a fine com bination of the intellectual and emotion. al attained only by the greatest of art ists. Her Chopin showed a thorough comprehension of the exquisite poetic and romantic spirit necessary to the interpretation of this composer.
 It was e matter of congratuation to the audience that the members by Mac Dowell, the greatest American conn poser, compared so favorably with those of the great masters Possibly Miss Cottlow's broadest work was the Mcdowell numbers, including his great Sonata Eroica and the encore his Polonaise. Her most delicate and charming work was the final encore. MacDowelrs "To a Water Lily" from the Woodland Sketches. Her interpre- tation of these numbers was masterly in the extreme. with a most entranc- ing and magnetic combination of the tender, the noble, and the intensely passionate. Her remarkable versatil- fly and virtuosity was thoroughly de- monstrated in her rendition of the last numbers by the modern composers. De- pussy, Rachmaninoff. Zarembski.
 Miss Cottlow possesses a charming personality. and is a gracious figure at the piano.
 The only suggestion to he offered to Miss Cottlow Is that her program might have contained more numbers familiar to the average piano student.
 At the Majestic.
 Introducing Miss May De Laire, a cornetiste of national reputation. the Imperial Musical trio brings to a close q bill. which IS the feature of all Ma Jestic bills of the present season. There are six good live acts. not counting the Majestograph. and not once during the whole performance is there dull moment Miss De Laire is the headiiner H the bill, but there are three acts which are strong rivals for the first honors.
 Probably the most pleasing feature of the bill Is the singing of Irene Ro- maine. who is styled an English com edienne. With four songs. all decided ly catchy. with costumes appropriate to each selection, Miss Romains has one of the best acts seen at the Ma Jestic in many day.
 "A Christmas on the Comstock" Is about the most stupenjous thing yet scence Is cabin pitched In the noun scene is cabin piched in the moun- tains of Nevada. The settings as seen at both the performances yesterday were exceedingly large for vaudeville. but hardly more than half of the scenery for this act could be used on the Majestic stage. Raymond Manion and Monde Glendower put on "A Christmas on the Comstock" and the applause which greeted the drop of the curtain made 1t necessary for the prip. cipals to answer to . score of curtain calls
 The trained toy terriers of William T. Kurtis and Julia Busse were very amusing, the tricks of the well train ed dogs being particularly pleasing to children.

The Blue Mouse at the Grand.

&C DAuD tNU0oC VI tME uE6MNs
 It was a most peculiar audience in a most peculiar frame of mind which witnessed the two performances Qfthe Blue Mouse at the Grand yesterday. There were persons who came simply because of the announcement that the offering had shocked Broadway. and becass the offering had been prohibit ed by the police in certain New Eng land towns; there were others of the audience who came from sheer curios- ity: none there were who came to find anything other than a risque play.
 And none were disappointed. No matter the frame of mind you came to the theatre in. you found expression for your opinion in the lines of the play. It was just as you thought 1t. To some the basis of the plot was shocking. to others simply risque. but to all 1t was amusing. Clyde Fitch, who made over the German version, ing part as well as cutting out all the vulgarity and coarseness of the foreign version said to have existed. The result sponsored for by Fitch Is not, however. a play which a young and unsophisticated person should witness.
 Its basie principles are coarse. vul- gar and show to what length the pub lie will stand vulgarity--it Is mild word--dressed up and labeled farce comedy" The Fitch rehash has but one thing to commend 1t, the fact that mistaken identities and one per son preventing another from telling the truth of a certain situation be- cause' he, too. Is mixed up in a shady transaction, are always amusing from an outsiders point of view.
 The story of both the Fitch and the German edition has been printed in the columns of The Advertiser. and 1t Is inexpedient to write another as the general public is perfectly familiar with the plot and its development.
 Millicent Evans took the part of The Blue Mouse," and according to the Fitch version is really not a bad person. Yesterday she played her part admirably.
 Of the other members of the com pany, they fitted in fairly well. es- pecially Geofray Stein in the role of Augustus Rolett. secretary to the railroad president.
 The next attraction at the Grand will be Rose Melville fin sis Hop kins" tonight.

TRADE FIGURES
FOR FISCAL YEAR
Decline in Imports of Manu-
features and Exports
of FO0dStuffS.

Washington, July 26.-Completed fig
ures Of the 1909 trade in 100 principal ar
ucles forming the imports and exports
Of the country gives the first available
view OF the trade Of the full fiscal wear
1909. They show a marker advance i'm
imports of manufacturers material. 4
considerable advance in the importa-
ton OF certain fOodstuffS, but a falling
on IN the importation of finished man
fractures. On the export side the fall
ing off extends TO all the great groups
foodstuffs, raw material, manufactures.
Ihls statement is subject to slight mod
ihcatlons because Of the fact that the
advance figures of imports and exports
or the 100 articles. as supplied by the
bureau of statistics of the department
OF commerce and labor, are only those
OF values and not Of quantities. and as
prices have in some cases declined il Is
possible that the lower figures of value.
IN some cases at least, represent larger
quantities than last year, but in general
terms 1t may be safely said that i'm
port9tions Of fOOdstuffs and manufac-
turers' material show an increase and
those of finished manufactures a de-
crease, and that on the export side all
of the great groups show a decrease.
when compared with 1908
The decline Of imports Of manufac-
lures occurs chiefly in the textiles
products of cotton. wool. silk and
hbers; also in the manufactures Of iron
and steel The increase in importations
of manufacturers material occurs in
nearly al of the important articles
hides and skins. India rubber. raw wool
and other articles of less importance.
The decline in export of fOodstuffs is
due apparently to unusually high prices
prevailing in the markets of the United
states and a consequent reduction I'm
the quantity exported; in cotton, to low
prices per unit of quantity as compared
with those Of last year, the quantity
exported being more than 600. 000. 900
pounds in excess of last year but the
value falling s2O0O0.O00 below that Of
last year. In manufactures the fall IN
exports occurs chiefly in iron and steel
of various grades and classes, copper
naval stores. lumber and other manu-
features of wood. and miscellaneous ar
ticles
