ACTORS SALARIES.
Fluctuating Value Of Thespians to
the Managers

From the New York Times
In New York last week about 1900 per-
sons, men and women. were pretending
to nearly 100000 more persons to be
somebody other than themselves. In the
various theaters. in drama, musical COM
edy. vaudeville and burlesque every week
during the theatrical season there are
fully this many actors working. look
into engagement agencies any bright aft
ernoon would indicate that twice as many
more were not working.
The pay of the individual actor is grad
ed according to the demand for his serv-
ices. The demand ia determined by the
public's apparent desire to see the work
of this particular actor. Naturally the
actor strives to get the highest possible
wage. and with equal naturalness the
manager tries to get him for the least
Competition between managers for the
services of an actor is the actors cake to
add to his bread and butter. which is a
platitudinous fact in any profession or
trade. The manager tries to secure to
himself the services of a possibly or &C
tually popular actor by agreeing to keep
him employed for q term of years at a
stated salary. The instability OF public
tastes makes such contract more or
less OF gamble to both manager and ac-
tor. and one or the other almost always
has cause temporarily to regret having
made 1t. Both never regret 1t at the
same time. There are several cases of
actors under contract at small salaries
proving unusual ability In certain lines of
work and leaping suddenly into public
favor. In night they have become ac-
tually worth twice or three times the
salary agreed upon. but there is the con-
tract, and II is an unbusinesslike man
ager who will voluntarily increase the
pay of the man to whom he has agreed to
pay only SO much. And there are Just as
many cases of actors who turn out to be
gold bricks to their managers. and
whose services come to be worth almost
nothing at all. In either case there is
usually an attempt made to break the
contract. though at present the Producing
Managers Association the one hand
and the Actors Society on the other have
safeguarded contracts to a great extent

CASE NOT TAKEN UP
Grand Jury May Have Bath

PLANS OF PROSECUTOR
Will Ask for Indictment CHARGING
Virginia Wardlaw With the
Murder Of 0cey Snead.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEWARK. n. j.. December 14-Prose-
cutor Mott of Essex county did not bring
the Snead-Wardlaw bathtub mystery be-
fore the grand jury today. as has been
expected. The prosecutor said this morn
ing that he could not. because the first
term of the December jury does not meet
for business until tomorrow He will
probably go before that body tomorrow,
however. and ask for an indictment of
murder To be returned against Miss Vir-
ginia Wardaw, the aunt of the young
woman found dead November ~
Mr. Mott denied that he intended hold
ing up his action in this matter until he
got further evidence, particularly evil
dence regarding the missing Mrs Caro-
Line B. Martin. or Fletcher Snead, the
mother and husband. respectively, of the
dead woman. He said this morning that
he intended TO go right ahead with the
case in the regular manner.
ocey Snead's Handwriting.
A find which may help to clear up what
is considered by many persons the most
vital point in the strange case-that of
genuineness of the suicide note signature
is uoW III the ndHOS OF tfle prosecutor.
That is another apparently true sigma
ture of Mrs. Ocey W. NJ. Snead. the dead
woman. Chief Detective A. J. Hardin of
the Essex county prosecutors office dis
covered the specimen, which is generally
considered authentic.
The signature was found in an affl-
davit dated August %. 1908. When Mr..
and Mrs. Fletcher w. Snead were NOV
ing away from house in East 18th
street, Flatbush they gave an express
man some furniture and two trunks to be
taken to house In East 18th street.
Something went wrong and the goods
were not delivered. Mrs. Ocey Snead
made an affidavit describing the missing
articles. This was signed i'm the presence
of the eXpressman. On the face Of IL the
signature looks like that on the suicide
note and that of known examples of her
writing. a second document bearing the
name of Ocey Snead. signed to a re-
ceipt for $50, has also been found. The
authenticity of this had not been fully
established this morning. Miss Ward
law is said to have secured this receipt
August IA, 1909. on the return of a lost
bag.
An Anonymous Letter.
The authorities are investigating an
anonymous letter received yesterday by
Chief Of Police Corbett of Newark to the
effect that Fletcher Snead was boarding
a few days before the tragedy at a house
