How Original Manuscript of Arnold
Benefits Story Was Struggled
From His Home.

The original manuscript of Ar
mold Benefits '"The Regent" also
known as "The Old ADAM" is now
in this country, the property of Ed
gar Selwyn, the dramatist. How
Selwyn struggled the manuscript out
of Benefits house at Thorpe-le-
Soken, in Essex, England, is an in
teresting tale. Mrs. Bennett is the
feminine Cerberus who guards origi-
nal manuscripts with zest and care
verging on the fanatic. No manu-
script has ever been known to leave
her possession before. Bennett and
Selwyn were discussing things in
general when the former offered the
desired manuscript to the dramatist.
"But how will | get it past your
wife?" queried the American.
"Here it is; just put it under your
coat and walk out" responded the
Briton.
''But it's bulky package and
she'll see it."
eff she stops you give her this"
replied Bennett. And selling a pen
he wrote ON the cover of the bundle:
This manuscript belongs to Edgar
Selwyn and is the property of no
woman"
And that is how the manuscript
was Struggled out of the Bennett

EXCESS CREWS
IN DISFAv0R
Various Attempts to Enact New
State Laws Have Been
Unsuccessful
Philadelphia, Feb. 81.


Efforts Of the trainmen's organiza-
ton to force Full Crew Laws-really
excess" crew laws-upon various
states are meeting with strong public
opposition. Farmers and business men
OF Kansas made such sharp protest
that the bill before the legislature OF
that state was killed February Is In
The senate committee.
An effort to enact an excess" crew
law In West Virginia met with gen.
eral opposition, and the bill was re-
ported adversely by the legislative
committee to which it was referred.
Down in Alabama legislative COM
mittee, after public hearings upon
n Full Crew bill, concluded that the
contentious of the trainmen's union
were not well founded and that the
measure would only compel employ
ment of extra men not needed on the
trains. The bill was consequently ad-
versely reported.
In Texas a new effort to get an
excess" crew bill passed has encoun-
tered vehement opposition from the
farmers, who defeated previous eff
fort. Out in Washington a bill has
been agreed upon by committees of
both the senate and the house, which
I'm effect will repeal the Full Crew
Law of that state and leave it to the
Public Service Commission to say how
trains shall be manned.
The bill before the New York legis-
lature for repeal Of the Full Crew
Law of that state Is being earnestly
supported by newspapers all over the
state, by grange and business organi-
cations, such as the Rochester Cham.
her Of Commerce, and by Influential
men of affairs.
The State Board of Agriculture and
the New Jersey State Chamber OF
Commerce stand strongly for repeal
Of the Full Crew Law of New Jersey,
with power to the Public Utilities
Commission to determine how trains
should be manned.
