MAKES GOOD CONTRACTS
Hammerstein Asserts $50, 600
from E. T. Stotesbury Was
Pure Gift to Save Opera
in Philadelphia.

AZ an impresario my dearest wish
is to use my God given gifts and my
possessions to give other people pleas
ure."
oscar Hammerstein took the jurors
in the United States Court into his
confidence yesterday when he was on
the witness stand in the trial of the
suit brought against him by Edward
r. Stotesbury, the Philadelphia finan-
cier. Mr. Stotesbury sued to recover
$4,000 he asserts ne lent to Hammer
stein in March, 1910, 10 make good a
deficit in the latter's Philadelphia
grand opera venture.
The difference of opinion between the
impresaro' and Mr.. Stotesbury as to
whether the S39. $50 was a loan. as the
banker asserts, or a gift, as Herr Us
car vigorously protested, will 60 to the
jury to-day.
Both principals in the action were
again examined and cross-examined
Yesterday, contradicting each other
with considerable force, and Mr. Stotes
bury fatty denied many of the things
that Mr.. Hammerstein equally tatiy
asserted he had told TO the banker.
Mr. Hammerstein had the first part
Of the day all to himself. He talked
as freely as counsel would let him. and
all the time he smiled at the jury ana
seemed to draw il into his loving con-
fdence, quite certain that the jurors
returned all the liking that ne APP
peared to show for them.
Explains Success"
Excitement took hold Of Mr.. Ham
merstein as soon as Herbert c. Smyth.
counsel for Mr.. Stotesbury began TO
cross-examine him. Words crowded
one another in Herr oscars throat
and his gestures became lively and en-
phatic.
What is my dearest possession? My
reputation as impresario?' he sputtered
AT the question of Mr.. Smyth. My
dearest possession is my reputation as
an honest man who pays his honest
debts"
His reputation as an impresario was
not even his second dearest possession.
he declared, led by Mr.. Smyth, ana
added that the lawyer had a complete
misunderstanding of his Oscars call
ing.
My dear sir, YOU don't understand
the meaning of the word success. Sue
cess is not what you do; il is what the
hubble does to YOU" he exclaimed.
Mr. Smyth asked him if it had not

added 10 hi prestige to have overcome
all obstacles to keep the Philadelphia
opera house open.
1t would have given me prestige lot
being fool To try to run the opera
house during a streetcar strike was
Mr.. Hammerstein' answer.
The impresario denied that he hao
had any consultations with his counsei
over the breaking Of contract win
the Metropolitan company not 10 pro-
duce opera in New York. How could
he consult with his attorneys over the
breaking of a contract that had never
existed? he asked.
"Ach! A Good Contract
Later Mr. Hammerstein read IN
French and translated a form contract
used bv him with his singers. Inc
point was to show that he could not
have suffered loss through closing the
opera hone because Of the strike. He
smiled as he read the clauses that re-
leased him from obligation, and the
court shook with laughter when he
added. quite audibly:
"Ach, my, hut that was good con
tract
That curtain speech OF Mr.. Hammer
STEMS at the closing performance OF
his Philadelphia venture again played
great part in the proceedings. The
impresario on that occasion went be
fore the curtain TO laud Mr.. Stotes-
bury's generosity in advancing or Civ
ing the $4,000 Several of his opera
employees, who were present on the
stage on that night, were called to
testify a bout il.
James Armstrong. technical manager
said the stage was in a hush when Mr..
Hammerstein spoke. and all were
listening When he finished the praise
of Mr. Stotesbury they broke out in APP
plause. and man named Smith
slapped him on the back and eN-
claimed:
That's the kind of man We have in
