LONDON'S NEWEST JULIET
Daughter of Fred Terry and Julia
Nelson Shows Talent.
[By Cable 10 The Tribune. ]

London. Sept. 2-The revival or
Romeo and Juliet" at the New Theatre
is a costly and beautiful production, per-
meated with the spirit OF youthful pas
sion and the atmosphere OF turbulence
The tragic lovers for once are really
young-Vernon Steel, as Romeo, signing
like a furnace and fighting like merci-
less barbarian, and Phyllis Nelson
Terry lighting up the ballroom and bal
cony scenes with the radiance and fresh
ness Of her beauty and having power III
reserve for the potion scene.
Fred Terry, while dlsclaiming parental
pride in exploiting his brilliant daughter'
rehearsed the part of Mercutio, which he
would undoubtedly have played with
due sense of its rollicking humor and
fine wit. but. owing to an indisposition,
the role was played at short notice by
Louis Calvert, who gives an excellent
portraiture, executed with all his old
time ardor.
There IS a solemn and sonorous friar
Laurence. and Rosina F'ilippi imparts
humor TO the racy garrulity OF the
Nurse. while the Blue Montagues and
BED Capulets keep the stage astir with
passionate rancor.
Joseph Harker supplied series OF
beautiful stage pictures, and Percy Mac
Quoid enriched them with Venetian cos
tunes and Oriental glInts of metal work.
Graceful dances have been arranged for
the ballroom scene, with dark haired
ladies' cleaning with pearls and lifting
trains and cavaliers rafting SWORDS ana
dangling capes. There are splendid re-
miniscences of Carpaccio's sumptuous
pictures, and withal a faithful study ana
reproduction of Shakespeare.
This attractive performance VIII be

ton Of Macbeth" at His Majesty's with

PROBING RAILWAY STRIKE
Lloyd Georges Cancellation
Boards Scheme Not in Favor.

London Sept 2.-The commission dp-
pointed py the government August ~ 10
INQUIRE into the trouble between the rail-
roads of Great Britain and their employees
which led TO the recent strike, has ALREADY
been in session for one week ana gives
promise Of being as longlived as some OF
its predecessors.
The railroads are represented on the
commission by Sir Thomas r Ellis. secre-
tarv OF the Mine owners Association, ana
Sir Charles Beale, vice-chancellor OF the
University of Birmingham. while the rep
resentatives of the men are Arthur Hen
derson. Labor Member Of Parliament for
the Barnard Castle Division OF Durham
and John Burnett. chief labor correspond
ent Of the Board of Trade. Sir DaVio
Harrel former Under Secretary for Ire
land, is chairman Of the committee.
The commission is taking the evidence
of the mems representatives first, and the
whole week did not suffice to exhaust the
flow of information sought TO be impaired
by only four out of host Of officials from
the different unions TO be examined.
There was not a good word to be said
OF the Cancellation boards scheme estao-
lished by the Chancellor OF the Exchequer
Mr. Lloyd George. in 1907. The genera
trend of suggestion favored board ror
each railroad made UP Of an equal number
of representatives Of the men and the COM
pany, with national board. on which the
companies and the mems unions are equally
represented, for service as kind of court
of appeal.
The witnesses objected to the appoint
rent Of an independent arbitrator as chair
man of these boards, holding that II the
men could not settle dispute themselves
they could not be bound by the casting oil
vote Of such an arbitrator n the terms
were unacceptable.
The only point upon which there was
complete unanimity among the -FOUR VIII
resses was the demand for recognition oil
the trades unions as the best and only
method of bringing about peace on the rail-
roads. The natural claim OF the executives
was that the unions would be in a better
position TO enforce an award II they were
concerned in it, and they agreed that strike
nay should not be granted TO men coming
out against the terms which had been ac-
cepted by their union.

BROTHER OPPOSES BROTHER
Premier of Alberta for Reciproc-
ity-Clifton Sifton Against 1t.

Winnipeg Sept. 2.-Premier Arthur Sfton
Of Alberta is keeping up vigorous cam
paign for reciprocity in the constituencies
of Southern Alberta, while his distinguished
brother. Clifford Sifton. former Minister OF
the Interior, is campaigning against the
pact with just as great energy In the east
ern provinces.
At a meeting in Taber Premier Sifton said
that reciprocity was not merely matter
Of getting q few cents more a bushel one
day for wheat or a better price for cattle;
II was that the farmers should have free
dom Of trade in the best market, TO sell at
the best price offered at the time. and to
have three or four competitors for their
products, instead of one or two, as at pres
ent.
1t was further a matter of populating
prairies. he said so that where Alberta
had now only a half million, 1t would have
four million people, when the price of land
would go up, for II was population that
made land valuable.
Sir Edmund Walker, president of the
Bank OF Commerce, OF Toronto. Mr.. Sfton
said limited that reciprocity would endan-
ger the loyalty Of the country; but the
Bank OF Commerce yearly moves three
quarters OF the cotton crop Of the United
States and its directors are not disoyal.

The proposed interoceanic railroad,

FOR A FIXED" CALENDAR
British NJ. P. Wishes to Make
Some Months 35 Days Long.

London. Aug 26.-Some novel proposals
are contained I'm the fixed calendar bill pre-
scented in Parliament this session by Sir
Henry Dalziel and supported by Mr.. Will
ke, Mr.. Prlngle and Munro Ferguson.
The memorandum accompanying the text
of the bill explains that the measure pur-
poses to substitute for the present irregu-
lar calendar, a fixed calendar, having regu-
lar periods, Of which the week is common
measure.
1t differs in some important features
from the calendar reform bill introduced
in March, 1893, by Robert Pearce. That
bill sought to make the months as uniform
in length as possible, but as difference in
this respect is unavoidable in a year with
twelve months, II is thought better to In
crease that difference so az to allow OF
the week being a common measure OF all
the months This arrangement makes it
possible for each month to begin on
Sunday and end on a Monday.
The memorandum points out that, al
though tho making of a definite and reg
ular difference between the lengths OF the
months does not Introduce any new ele-
ment into the meaning OF the Word
month" seeing that the months already
differ in length, II has been thought well
TO codlfy the present rule determining
monthly periods, and to make rule re-
garding the computing of monthly salaries
The bill provides that the conditions or
labor on New Year Day" and Leap
Day." and also the remuneration thereof
shall conform as far as possible TO what
prevails on Sundays.
f,,- Hxn1d n ia
each OF the movable Holy Days, 1t has
been thought sufficient TO enact a hxed
date only for Easter, which Is TO be upon
the fifteenth day Of April, as all the others
are calculated from the date or Easter
AS in Mr. Pearce's bill and In the Calendar
act Of 1851. provision IS made regarding the
comings of age and other events which
may be effected by the passing OF this DILL
The bill, if passed by Parliament, VIII not
become operative until the Crown DECIDES
that sufficient international concurrence has
been secured.
A table giving the proposed fixed calendar
shows that tho month OF January, Febru-
any. April. May, July, August. October and
November would each consist Of twenty
eight days. while the remaining months Of
March, June. September and December
would each have thirty-fye days. New
Year Day" Is set apart. thus bringing the
total of days up TO the requisite number
OF 3e5. while for leap years special day Is
get apart as Leap Day" which Is to be
differentiated between the last day OF June
and the first day OF July, as reconstructed
by the bill

THE ANGARA ON WAY TO RUSSIA
Hospital Ship Will Be Formally Re-
turned by Japan Next Wednesday.

Kure. Japan. Sept. 2-The former Rus
sian hospital ship Angara, which was sunk
at Port Arthur during the Russo-Japanese
War, and which the japanese government
IS now returning TO Russia, left the navy
yard here to-day bound for Vladivostok.
The vessel is being conveyed to the Rus
sian naval base by the japanese armored
cruisers Nisshin and Kasuga, under com
mand of Rear Admiral Yashiro. The OFF,
cjal transfer Of the ship to Russia will take
place on September 6.
The Angara was sunk by her own crew
at Port Arthur in November, 1904, to pre-
vent her falling into the hands Of the Jap
anese. In the following spring the vessel
was foated by the japanese, converted into
an auxiliary cruiser and added to the Jap
anese navy for use as training ship.
The transfer of the vessel 10 Russia is in
accordance with the decision recently
reached by Japan to return the property OF
the Russian Red Cross seized during the

WILD, SENSELESS 0UTBURST
Dealers, Owing to Drouth and
Cattle Disease, Can Make No
Profits, and Voluntarily
Go Out of Business.

Paris. Sept. Dear food riots, famed
by emissaries from the General Labor
Federation, are assuming revolutionary
dimensions in Northern France and in
Brittany. In the smaller towns or
Picardy and Flanders butchers. bakers
and greengrocers have closed their shops,
and no milk, butter, cheese or eggs are
brought TO market.
Near Douai Infatuated housewives,
making diabolical noises with yells and
screams, march about. broomsticks IN
hand. smashing eggs and destroying all
The perishable food they can find.
This wild, senseless outburst is quite
IS ferocious as that Of the Champagne
uurising last spring. Frantic women, In
cited by professional revolutionists and
anarchists, wave the red flags of the
rroletariat and sing. The 'lnterna-
1ionale" and. La Camagnoie' are
heard in many towns. The only food
ohtainable is rice, macaroni, fried peas
and beans, the prices Of which are un-
changed.
Cultivators and provision dealers say
that i'm the face of the drouth and or
tie foot-and-mouth disease they make
no profits, even at the present high
prices. and prefer to shut up shop alto
Eether.
The government seems determined
not TO have recourse to any diminutlon
Of the tariff on foreign meats. poultry or
dairy products. but by suspending the
importation duty on mutton and Nege-
tables from the French colonies. notably
algeria and Madagascar hopes TO I'M
prove the situation.
Meanwhile large forces of cavalry and
Infantry are striving to preserve order
.n Picardy and Flanders, where infurl-
ated housewives have raised this eX-
iraordinary pandemonium.
Premier CaillauX to-day issued in
structions to the provincial projects to
sepress theoretically all revolutionary
agitation in connection with the food
manifestations. The Minister Of Justice
NJ Cruppi, also sent circular letter 10
the public prosecutors relative to the
punishment Of rioters.
/ At the same time a national inter-
Industrial commission, composed of the
Ministers Of Commerce and Agriculture
The Director General Of Customs and
representatives Of the wholesale food
dealers. was summoned this morning TO
meet and devise measures for the lower
sng Of the high cost Of food. The COM
Emission was in session all day long.
In Dunkirk agitators seem completely
10 dominate the city. Three hundred
women marched through the streets to-
DAY as a demonstration to the govern
tnent that it ought to do something look
lng to the reduction Of high prices.
Some shops have been looted, frlghten-
ing all dealers into barring their store
Windows and doors.
The scenes reported from Dunkirk are
r. type Of what is being enacted to-day
tn half a hundred cities Of Northern
France. Usually, however, the disturb
ences are not accompanied by personal
injuries.
