ISOLATION.
Pointing his finger at the secretary,
Mr.. Emery disputed the report of the
referee board that benzoate had been
found to be not harmful, and then &C
cused the secretary of having urged
President Roosevelt to block a rein
vestigation of the subject.
"Let me say" declared Secretary
Wilson, jumping to his feet, that II

point of Importance is still the sub

do with the interchangeability of the

the privilege of reselling their share
outside of their own country, while
European interests desire that the

A question of some moment is still
open between Germans and the French

A deadlock on this point is possible

AT THE ACADEMY

The Jeffersons' revival of The
Henrietta" Bronson howard's popular
comedy which helped to make the
fame of William II. Crane and the
late Stuart Robson and which Tor
years has been on the shelf, was
given its premier presentation at the
Academy of Music last night before
an audience that was very apprecia-
tive, though not especially strong IN
numbers. The company is starting
on a tour OF the South. and will leave
this morning for Norfolk.
1t would be unfair to attempt cri-
ticism of their frt performance. Ii
was practically dress rehearsal. and
though the players We're familiar with
their lines and were dressed for their
parts. everybody was more or less
stiff, and an air OF uncertainty SEEM
ed 10 pervade the stage. There was
no convincing acting in the dramatic
scenes of the play and the comedy
was brought out in stilted, half
hearted way. Apparently no particular
member of the company was especial
ly to blame for this-the uneasinesS
and self-consciousness seemed to az
feet them all.
Joseph Jefferson appears as Old
Nick, the great financier, and William
w. as BERTHE. the Lamb. The former
never will shine particularly brightly
as the financier, but his performance
will be acceptable when the rough
edges have been worn down a bit.
William W. makes sincere effort
to get some fun out of the Lamb, ana
he will succeed better when the rest
of the company warns up and re-
lieves the tension.
Edward Archer makes good
Nicholas Vaualstyne, Jr., and John l..
Wooderson, George Holland. Eugene

iiam A. Carroll are acceptable in their
Irrespective parts.
Miss Blanche Bender is delightful
as Mrs. Cornelia Oplyke, the widow.
She is a clever little actress. strik-
ingly pretty and wears some stunning
gowns. Miss Theodore Dudley, as
Mrs. Rose Vanalstyne, seems to be
capable. but she was just little more
uneasy and self-conscious than any
body else last night. Miss Alice l..
Brooks. as Lady Mary, and Miss
Renee Woodson, as Agnes, portrayed
their minor roles pleasingly.
Two adequate stage settings have
been provided. but the production is
