BERLIN AUDIENCE IN
RIOT AT WAGNER OPERA

Berlin.-Slegfried Wagner is destin-
ed to undergo some of the stormy
experiences that marked his illustri-
Gus fathers career. judging from the
reception of his opera, ''The Kobold. f."
at the Royal Theater Wednesday
night.
The majority Of the audience ap-
plauded generously, but at the end of
the second act there was a riotous
counter demonstration, and Kisses and
cat-calls arose in the parquet The
leader of the manifestation ironically
shouted "Hurrah for the Claque," and
was seized by occupants of other seats
dragged to the door and thrown down
the stairs landing to the corridor be-
low, where partisans of both sides
joined in the alteration.
Blows were exchanged and for n
time there were excellent prospects of
free-for-all fight. but attendants sue
ceeded in restoring order.
This demonstration is attributed TO
musical enthusiasts who are seIf-con-
stituted guardians of art.
Critics today treat "the Kobold"
which is based on a fairy story, as
meritorious work without special dis
tinction.

THOSE REDUCED RATES.
Spokane Merchants VIII Insist Upon
Immediate Action.

SPOKANE, Wasn.-SnlpperS ana mer-
chants in Spokane will go before the
Interstate Commerce Commission at
hearing in Chicago, to insist upon
the issuance of n preemptory order
making the new class on commodity
rates on westbound shipments from
eastern points effective on October 1
oil November /, instead of permitting
the carriers to make the months of
July, August and September a test
period, as ordered by the commission
on June 30.
A. w. Donald, chairman of the in
terstate commerce committee of the
Spokane chamber of commerce, said
in an interview today that while the
new rates from Chicago and Mississ-
ippi river points are satisfactory. they
dc not cover all the ground, adding:
Two strong points were gained by
Spokane. One is that the present rates
are too high, the other that the rs
per cent rate from eastern points to
the Pacific coast and a local rate back
to Spokane is Illegal. We believe, too,
that the railroads could have taken
the three months already passed to
show the revenues accruing on busi-
ness actually handled and the revenue
which would have accrued, had the
rates prescribed by the commission
been in effect.
The months of April, May and
June are fair months upon which to
base revenues on freight, while the
succeeding three months are not, for
the reason that fewer goods are ship
ped. Another thing is that in view
Of the favorable decision, many of the
dealers will curtail their shipments
until the new tariffs become effective"
Mr.. Doland announced that repre-
sentative of one of the trans-c CONT
mental railroads operating in the Spo-
kane territory has agreed to put the
new rates into effect as ordered by the
commission, even though the proposal
Is declined by competitive lines He
added that negotiations are under way
with other officials in the east and
west

The America will be housed at At

The America will carry a crew Of
six men including the wireless oper-

a steel tank Equipped for a days

ranks second only to the latest Zep--

Two engines will drive her, one Of

The quantity of fuel carried gives the
