Scotland
The threat to call a general strike of
teamsters it thought not likely to be en-
forced
An interesting incident was noted at
Euston station, where the police were
seen escorting boxes containing strike
pay from the station to the offices of the
union.
two men stood guard with drawn bay
onets, while the rest of the company
| busted themselves with their horses
and accoutrements. Six hundred men
guarded the general post Office to pre-
vent interference with the mail carts
and further TO emphasize the military
| control in London.
| A little group of uniformed men
| from the Signal Corps took up sta
| ton IN the dome of St. Pauls Cathe-
| dral from which they kept the differ
ent units in touch with the general
staff at the war office.
Scarcely any of the railway lines
centering at London afforded COM
plete service and even the under
ground and tube system were affected
| to some extent Commuters this
morning in many cases took the street
railways or buses to avoid the crush
at the railway stations and in the
tubes where the elevator men caused
trouble by joining the strikers after
working for two hours.
London's elaborate underground
system, including the metropolitan dis
trict railways had difficulty in oper-
ating because of strike of the men
at one station, Eastman, through
which no trains could pass Thus at
times traffic was held up for consi6-
cradle period.

WELLESLEY SENIOR GRIEVED
Feels That Efforts to Build
Union Are Unappreciated.
icy Telegraph to The Tribune. ]


Wellesley, Mass. Nov. 1S.-Miss Doro-
thy Applegate, of Brooklyn, senior at
Wellesley. is disturbed over the attitude
of certain clique in college who do not
favor the erection Of the Wellesley
Union. an everyday college woman's
clubhouse. She has devoted her college
career toward raising funds for the erec-
ton of this building by many and varied
WAYS. To date $4,000 has been sub
scribed.
Much Of this has been due to Miss Ap-
piegates untiring efforts Last year she
nearly ruined the college inn and the
village tea shops when she instituted
fast days. She organized silent parties
where those who talked or laughed were
fined. Her last enterprise was the es-
tablishment Of an up-to-d date shoe pol
ishing parlor in College Hall, where she

PASQUALE AMATO.

fRr Cable To Tho Tribune ]

London. Nov. 13.-The rivalries of Ma
pleson and Gycare were reproduced after
a long interval in the opening tonight
of the new Opera House in opposition to
Covent Garden. Oscar Hammersten's
challenge was welcomed by a crowded
house. and there was genuine entkusi-
asrn over the first performance of Quo
Vadis"?
Jean Nougucs himself conducted the
orchestra. the chorus was well drilled
in both acting and singing. and the spec
tacular effects In the scenes portraying
the burning Of Rome and the martyrdom
Of the Christians were remarkably vivid
The French barytone. Maurice Renaud,
was almost the only singer well known
in London, and the remaining singers in
the long cast substituted fresh voices
for great names. The famous stars in
their Covent Garden courses may fight
against Mr. Hammerstein. but with the
glamour Of new surroundings and the
unmistakable modernity Of a score well
suited to stirring melodrama they were
not missed on the opening night
Mile. Valandri, from the Opera
once as Eunice, singing with purity of
tone, and Jean Berkin was a picturesque
figure as Nero watching the destruction
of Rome. defying the angry mob and
pocpbaDo1iap dance
The new Opera House easily surpasses
the old one in its luxurious appointments
and the beauty of its decorations. The
box holders had reception rooms where
they met friends between the acts. and
music lovers in the cheaper sections
were delighted at the arrangements
made for their comfort.
The Lord Mayor and Sheriffs of Lon
don attended in state and the Ameri-
can Ambassador and Mrs. Reid and
other members of the diplomatic corps
were present Alfred De Rothschild the
Duchess of Marlborough. Lady Charles
Beresford. Lady Abingdon, the Duchess
of Devonshire. Lady Cunard and other
leaders of society were among the pa
irons of the neT enterprise.
oscar Hammerstein was happy, and
after urgent calls made a felicitous ac-
acknowledgement
The opening Of the new Opera House
narrowly escaped being postponed, the
London County Council having on Sat
urday insisted upon certain structural
alterations. which delayed the granting
Of a license until only ten minutes before
the rise of the curtain.

between us are of temperament and habit,

of divorce for any light reason.
Mrs Harrington is the daughter Of the
late StoughtOn J. Fletcher, a wealthy
banker and capitalist Of this city. She
is a writer of verse and has contributed
to magazines.
