AT THE PLAY.

Where, oh, where was The Sensational
Waltz on the Stairs? That-like several
other attractions credited to 1.-THE Rose
Maid" which played twice in Topeka on
Saturday-seems to have existed chiefly in
the mind OF an Imaginative advance
agent.
The roseate hopes awakened by the re-
port that the operetta was a COMPANION
piece to 1.-THE Spring Maid" were. as
the melodramatists say, aha! doomed to
disappointment. The Spring Maid was
dainty, tuneful, full Of snap-when it play
ed at the Grand with Mizzi Hajos it was
the hit OF the season. There really wasn't
q glimmer in 1.-THE Rose Maid''" sunni
cient to waken any enthusiasm for Smith.

composer Of the opera.
1.-THE Rose Maid has two acts, 20 SONGS.
% principals. a large chorus-and chats
about all. "Roses Bloom for Lovers the
song which runs through the play. il
rather pretty. The operetta was amusinx
enough to mildly entertain houses toIera-
bly, well filled at each performance.
Florence Miller has the title role-she's
slender, attractive, and makes the most
of pair Of wide black eyes. Howard
Marsh plays opposite her as the count.
Ben Macombe, BERTHE, the counts chunn.

and blond pompadour. Beatrice Bal
Edwin Clark. Lew Lederer and lack
Moore. the three comedians, supplied the
life OF what most OF the audience termed
q flat performance.
On the whole ''The Rose Maid" was
mediocre-not up to what the advances
men had led the public to expect.

enlisted the sympathy of another

they sought the house Of the police

DIFFICULTY OF EXPECTING DIS
SOLUTION OF HARRIMAN PACE
rIC LINES PROBABLY is
THE CHEF CAUSE.

NEW YORK. April so.--There
YVES again very much the same kind
ef stock market here today as abroad,
showing that Wall Street is still more
sensitive TO foreign influences than to
anything else. Financial Europe
recovered a degree of composure, and,
although securities in London and
or the continent. were more or less
unsettled, the markets reflected hope
fui expectations, and rumors regard
ing political outcomes.
The May holiday tomorrow will
close many foreign markets, and this
suspension Of business stimulated
short covering. American shares
rallied sharply in London. where they
were also helped by the prospect of
arranging amicahly the difffculty
threatened by CALIFORNIA; land law
crusade against the Japanese.
Tells the News.
The course of European security
prices was framed in a further hard
eninE OF discounts at London and
Berlin. and at times Ike these frac-
tionai percentages of changes in
money rates often tell more news
than is conveyed by wordy dispatches.
just as the foreign situation is
complicated with non-politicai mat
fers. such az the outlook for new
financing In the light OF capital sup
plies. so is the domestic situation
market governed by MIXTURE of
Factors in which at the moment, how
ever. the European element is ap-
rarentiy the most important.
Shortly after the local opening the
share list was carried UP to the level
Of recovery In London. but thereafter
quoted value. pursued an irregular
and on the whole downward move
ment. Short covering contributed
principally to the relative firmness
Ut many standard stocks, but specu-
iAfing attack and liquidation were
effective for declines in various direc-
lions. There was much weakness in
specfaities. Some non-dividend pay
ing railroad shares were pressed for
sale. Missouri Pacific was conspicu-
GUS in this respect. the excuse seem
ing to he the resolution offered in
congress authorizing n government
suit TO recover sa.e30.ooo with inter

Southern Pacific land valued at 500

son was the difficulty experienced in
continuing a separation OF the Harri-
man Pacific railroads pleasing to At

The most spectacular. feature OF the
share list was the renewed break in
New Haven. which fell very heavily
IN the afternoon, The failure of the
general market to sympathize with
the fresh fall In New Haven was an
encouraging sign.
