Miss Margaret Green. who PLAYS the

amazement and horror last night that
things of the mimic life OF the stage are

used I'm the second act upon Joseph Kill

"The Times" which publishes the
text Of President Taft's recent message
to Congress, says: The course taken
by a Mitchell Innes was Inevitable
and 1t must meet with strong approval,
even that Of the influential body of
American opinion. That Mr.. Taft should
not eagerly welcome a practical appli-
cation between the two great English
speaking nations of the principle with
which his own name is so closely and
honorably associated seems TO us al
most inconceivable."
THE Times" does not think that
reputable American lawyers would care
10 advance before the international
tribunal arguments upon which Presi-
dent Taft relies IN his defence of the

EIGHT.H0UR LAW RULING
Attorney General Interprets
Statute Covering Contracts.

Washington, Aug. B-1n an interpreta-
ton Of the new contract eight-hour labor
law. Attorney General Wickersham has
decided that the government may enter
into contracts, without restricting the
hours Of labor, for the purchase OF sup
plies and articles exempted by the act
even though the government itself has
occasionally manufactured these articles.
He also held that no provision OF the law
becomes effective until January !. Many
government contracts have been held up
awaiting this decision.
Secretary OF War Stimson raised several
questions regarding army contracts. The
new statute specifically excerpts certain
classes OF contract work from the eight
hour stipulation, including the purchase
of supplies. This proviso, the Attorney
General said. was made to precent govern
ment officials giving out by contract work
now performed by the government itself.
IL refers, he holds, TO work which Is
ordinarily done by the government and
not merely occasionally.
