Lord Melsey'a report on the "Titanic''
enquiry is substantially as forecasted on
ninth ulto., and contains many long and
technical recommendations. Comments are
somewhat critical, for example, the Chimes"
thinks the "Titauic'o" speed alone was incap-
able Of causing the disaster without bad
steermanship and faulty navigation. 1t is
believed that censure of the Californian
was anticipated by the quiet dropping of
Captain Lord from duty.
Washington adyicts state that Senator
Smith remarks upon the general accord of
Lord Mersey's report with the findings Of
his committee. American lawyers think the
report excuipate7 the White Star Company
from payment Of damages, and therefore it
will be sued in the United States courts in
reliance upon Senator Smiths report,
The lockers are resuming work gradually,
but some are unable to find employment ow-
ing to bIacklegs filing thior places, therefore
there are frequent fights and much resent
mont against both the blacklegs and the
employers. There will be much delay be-
fore tie conditions become normal.

CROOK HAD SIX DISCUSSES
Clothes Reversible, He Could
Change in a Jiffy.

Chicago, Nov. pa hold-up man
with an equipment Of six disguises was
captured by detectives here to-day. He
wore cap that could be turned wrong
side out and carried in his pocket a
similarly reversible soft felt hat. He
had on two pairs of trousers of differ
ent colors and his coat could be turned
to show either side, so that ne had only
10 step into an alleyway for a moment
10 make a complete change in his ap-
pearance.
Two detectives saw the man go be-
hind building and turn his coat
wrong side out and change his cap for

IOSCAR WANTS TO GIVE
OPERA IN ENGLISH
Ready to Erect New House if
Directors Of Metropolitan
Give Their Consent.
IS BOUND BY CONTRACT
Hopes They Will Agree, as His
Project Would Stop Plans Two
European Managements
Have to Invade N. Y.

Oscar Hammerstein is preparing 70
build new grand opera house in this
city for the production of opera in
English. He is only awaiting the con-
sent OF the directors OF the Metropoli-
tan Opera Company before starting
work on the new building. The consent
Of the Metropolitan directors is neces-
sary before Mr.. Hammerstein can give
grand opera in New York City, owing
TO the agreement made with the Metro
poitnn Opera Company at the time the
Metropolitan bought out the Manhattan
Opera Company two years ago.
BY this agreement Mr. Hammerstein
bound himself not TO give grand opera
in New York City for a period of ten
years, receiving az compensation nearly
81 100000. Mr.. Hammerstein said last
night that the English opera would not
be given at the Manhattan Opera
House, but in a new building he would
erect near Broadway. He said he saw
no reason why the Metropolitan d.
rectors should object, as the opera at
the new house would be at popular
prices and would not conflict with the
older institution.
'I am ready" he said "and eager to
give grand opera in English, and have
picked out a site on which / shall build
an opera house. or course, l must first
obtain the consent Of the Metropolitan
directors. | see no reason why they
should refuse, as the new institution
would not conflict with them.
The performances will be given en-
tirely in English. and the prices will be
popular-from So down. New York
needs new opera house. The Metro
poiitan Is altogether too small to sup
ply the demand. Hundreds Of persons
wishing 10 purchase tickets are turned
away each night, as the subscriptions
practically sell out the house.
"A vast number OF people wish to
understand the words which are sung
and will not 90 to the theatre il they
are not able 10 understand them. This
is the public for which will build my
opera house II lies with the Metropoli-
tan company 70 show that it is a great
power for good In the community. II
will, in addition, destroy any danger of
opposition. 1t is well known that two
important interests are considering CIV
ing grand opera In New York at the
present time: one OF these is a great
Italian publishing house and the other
Russian impresario connected with
the Royal opera at St Petersburg.
Il myself received a proposition from
one OF these interests in which they
wished me To assume the directorship
of new opera house. ] was compelled
TO reject the proposition because of my
agreement with the Metropolitan Opera
Company. II my new house Is estab-
lished It will effectually prevent either
of these interests from entering the
field.
II see no reason why, for its own in
terests, the Metropolitan Opera Com
pany should refuse me this consent.
