anteed a certain sum week. which Is
made up OF salary and a share OF profits

Dave Warfield expects always at least
$1,000; Faversham gets 500; Otis Harlan.
$780, Eddie Foy. 5000.
Probably the highest priced actresses
on the American stage to-day are Mrs.

be impossible to pay ell star salaries
otherwise the MANAGEMENT would ind
