Amid Great Enthusiasm.
IN CabIe % rhe -ribune. J

London, March Oscar Hammer
STEMS winter season closed tonight with
a gala performance at grand opera prices
before a crowded and enthusiastic house
A score or more singers appeared in
scenes from FIVE operas, and were finely
supported by a chorus which has been
the best feature OF every performance.
The programme consisted Of the first
act Of La Traviata," the mad scene
from Lucia" the second act Of Tales
Of Hoffman," (Venice scene), the last
act Of "Trovatore" and the third act
OF Louise" coronation scene).
Felice Lyme had the heartiest reception
in the mad scene from Lucia" and sans
and acted with splendid power.
Orville Harold was also showered
with braves. The coronation scene from
Louise" and the barcarolle from 'Hoft-
mann" were warmly spplauded, Victoria
Fer and Frank Pollock being the favor
ties. and "Trovatore" and "Traviata"
closed an evening of agreeable reminis.
cences.
Mr.. Hammerstein with good reason cx-
pressed his satisfaction at the results Of
his first season and his confidence that
the new enterprise would survive the
competition Of Covent Garden.

COAL PRICES ARE UP
English Strike Causes Advance
All Along the Line.

The price OF soft coal took n jump IN this
city yesterday. the increase being ascribed
to the English strike. and II was stated
that there were some increases in the price
OF anthracite. The New York agent OF the
Belmont Quemahoning Coal Company, rep
resenting both bituminous and anthracite
collieries, said that there were advances
Of from 80 cents to 81 a ton in the prices OF
hituminous coal over those of two days ago.
The prices of anthracite in the different
sizes haye also increased but not In the
same proportion" he continued. The
stock OF small steam sizes and the large
size known as broken anthracite, used in
gas houses and factories. seems 10 be near
" exhausted. and II a strike comes the
concerns which need these sizes will have
to get permits for the use of soft coal"
He said that one reason for the shortage
was the extreme cold Of the months OF
January and February. which caused a
great demand for all kinds OF anthracite
and also made the work of sorting the pre-
pared sizes very slow.
The agents Of other firms said that the
American anthracite miners would take ad-
vantage of the present circumstances 10 in
sist on their full demands. The soft coal
operators in the South, who are non-union.
would like TO see a strike. as there would
then be a great demand for soft coal from
the Southern states, and these miners would
keep on working at higher wages, as they
did during the last coal strike.
II is believed that when the agreement
Of the anthracite miners expires. on March
81, at noon, there will be q suspension OF
work, which would not be regarded as
a strike, but which might or might not de-
velop into a strike, according TO clrcum-
stances. Some of the largest coal dealers
believe that there is good chance Of a
strike being averted, as the operators will
be willing 10 make concessions that ordina-
rily they would not make in order 10 avoid
a strike.
None of the representatives OF the coal
carrying companies would discuss the ques-
ton as 10 whether a strike is likely They
said that much will depend on the first
joint conference between the committee Of
the mine workers and the anthracite oper-
ators in this city on March Il.

EXODUS FROM MEXICO
President Taft's Proclamation
Causes Great Excitement.

Mexico City, March .. - President
Taft's proclamation advising Americans
TO leave Mexico If conditions grow more
threatening created deeper concern
among Americans and foreigners gen
orally than any previous development in
the present rebellion or I'm the Madero
revolution.
A Washington dispatch TO an after
noon paper here gave the first intima-
tlon of President Tafts intention, and
was circulated about the city in the
form of dodger printed in red ink In
this it was made to appear that Presl-
dent Taft was to recommend all Ameri-
cans to leave Mexico at once.
The news spread quickly throughout
the American colony, and caused excite
ment bordering on CONSERVATION. I'm
ouestionably the advice will be needed
by all Americans who can conveniently
leave Mexico without awaiting more
serious state of affairs.
The exodus Is already well under way
Railroad trains in the last few days have
been carrying extra coaches to accom-
modate the travel and steamer accom-
modations are we'll booked for two weeks

COAL S13 A TON IN PARIS
French Miners Will Strike if
British Are Successful.
TBy Gable to The Tribune.

Paris, March 2.--The coal war in Eng
land is aTousng intense interest through
out France, because if the British min
ers succeed in obtaining their minimum
wage bill it seems almost certain that
French miners will seize the opportunity
30 formulate minimum wage schedules
Of their own, and If these are not accept
ed will go out on strike.
The immediate effect in France Of the
British coal strike is sharp advance IN
prices Of coal which for household use
to-day in Paris is S13 ton and for or
ainary navigation coal at Havre, Bor-
deaux and Marseilles 50 ton instead Of
the normal So 80 ton.
Thanks TO the foesight Of NJ. Delcasse,
Minister of Marine. the government is in
possession of an ample coal supply for
the French navy and for the arsenals at
Toulon, Cherbourg, Brest and Rochefort.
French coal merchants have succeeded
in obtaining coal from the United States
which will prevent France from being
dependent upon Germany for her needs
in excess Of her own coal production.
Meetings OF miners are announced for
to- morrow in French coal regions to ex-
press sympathy with British miners.

Paris. March 2-In official circles here
no confidence whatever is felt in the
success of efforts now being made for
the mediation of the powers with the
object or ending the war between Italy
and Turkey.
The powers, now that they have as
sented to the italian annexation Of Trip
oil. can only act at Constantinople as
supporters Of sort of Italian ultimatum
unacceptable 10 the Ottoman govern
mcnt
The conviction prevails here that the
Turkish ministry could not stand against
the revolution which would ensue at
Constantinople should the government
accept Italy's conditions for peace. More
over the Cabinet at Constantinople is ut
terly powerless to enfore peace in Trip
oil. because Il has no control whatever
over the Arab and Soudanese tribes
