THE ACADEMY.



Harold VosbuTgh IN a repetition Of last
success, Wanted by the Police.
began a weeks engagement at the Acad-
emy last night before an enthusiastic
audience. The play abounds in thrills
and heart interest. and the scenery fills
every want from picturesque viewpoint.
AS the play was seen here last season
and the plot 50 vividly !nstilled in the
minds Of tie theater-going public in gen
eral, the story needs no recounting here.
Il has lost none Of its heart throbx
while the comedy judiclously interspessed
relieves the heavier situations.
Harold Vosburgh, IN the role OF Billy
West. the fast telegraph operator. gave
a clear portrayal OF the character. He
presents hero OF the robust type and
a degree OF dramatic ability
not ordinary. Joseph Hoiicky. as Alfred
Kingdom, made a ferocious villain. and
Al Dupont, as CaSso. an Italion scissors
grinder, made a good second, although his
success lay rather in his lines than in his
ability The remainder Of the male men,
bers OF the company with two eNcep-
tons. were decidedly mediocre. The fem
mime portion OF the company were all
so good that II is hard 10 distinguish
who possessed the most dramatic ability.
AS 20 physical attractions too. they were
up TO the standard Margaret Hagan,
Hattie ReEpel, and Helena Rapport were
among the principals and were heartily
applauced Tor their efforts

CUBAN STATUS DEFINED.
State Department Asserts There Is
No Trouble Existing.

The State Department yesterday gave
out the text Of a statement made public
By the Cuban state department i was
transmitted to Washington from the
American Legation IN Havana The text
follows:
Certain local papers frequently publish
alarming news in respect OF the status Of
relations between the government OF
Cuba and the United States; and as such
news ordinarily produces some disquiet IN
the solidity and stability OF its institu-
tons. not only unequivocally 70 assure
such solidity and stability. but 20 pronote
the economic development OF the country.
the department OF state Is impeued 10 in
form the public that there does not exist
the slightest friction between the TWO
governments, whiSi. sustain, IN high de-
gree OF cord!ality and courtesy, the his
tOrical bonds that unite them; and. SINH
larry, the department declares that no IN
cident OF any kind has occurred thet
would justify the canard insistently dis
seminated with reference 10 the alleged
recall OF the Cuban Minister at Washing
ton, through whose mediation the diplo-
matte business between Cuba and the
United States IS conducted In the most
respectful and effectual terms.

CONVENTION ENDS TONIGHT
Electrical Workers Will Conclude
with Smoker.
Reports show Not a Single Strike In
Progress, Owing to System OF
Arbitration.

The convention OF Electrical Workers
yesterday was confined to the reading OF
reports. and no business OF public inter-
est was transacted Tho meeting will
conclude with a smoker this evening.
Following q summary OF the numerical
strength which the organization is now
able to muster, the afternoon session was
largely spent in considering the finances
Of the association.
There has been an increase in rnem-
bership Of 4OO0 workers in the territory
covered by Pennsylvania. Maryland, New
Jersey Delaware. and the District OF Co
lumbia." said J. j. Reid. the national
secretary OF the organization. This Is
great showing for Us. and we are con-
vinoed that prosperity has returned.
Many Of our men were out OF work
year ago. and the membership fell of at
a great rate. Now this condition is COM
pletely reversed, and there Is a stroug
demand for workers.
There is not a single strike through
out the country. Labor troubles have
almost entirely disappeared. We have
perfected the best system OF arbitration
in the country. and take pride IN keep
ing faith with the employers. No local
union is permitted 10 declare a strike
without first consulting the district head.
and the latter is always urged TO bend
every effort toward amicable settlement
before declaring industrial warfare. In
this way we avoid hundreds OF inciplent
strikes which hot-headed men were de-
termined upon.
THE District OF Columbia organization
is in splendid shape. and fully illustrates
the prosperity which business is now ex-
periencing from the Atlantic to the Pa
cihc"
