When London Playeoers Rose Against

There occurred in London something
over a hundred years ago a series OF
riots called the 20. Z. riots" which
crew out Of an increase in theater
prices.
In 1909, after Covent Garden theater
had been burned TO the ground and re-
built, It was reopened under the man
agement Of John Kemble, one of the
Kemble family of great actors, with an
increased scale Of admission prices.
The new theater was all right, and
Kemble was popular, but the theater
going public resented the increase of
prices.
On the opening night when Kemble,
who was to play Macbeth. attempted
to make an explanatory speech he was
hooted down by demands for "old
prices" and night after night people
crowded the house. danced on the seats
and interrupted the players with cries
Of 20. P.," old prices.
The disturbance continued for sew.
eral weeks, the people wearing 20. T."
badges and displaying big 20. r." plac.
ards. The theater was closed for sew
eral days, but when 1t was opened the
trouble began again. Seats were de
stroyed and windows broken.
Legal proceedings were taken and
failed. The municipal authorities, as.
sisted by a governor of the Bank OF
England, finally brought about a com

CHINA IS WARNED
AGAINST MONARCHY.
Japan, England, France, Russia
Join in Representations.
DHAy URGED BY EUROPEAN POWERS
Chinese Foreign Minister Says Vote
Has Been Called for and Delay
Would Invite a Rebellion.

Toxic, Official announcement Was
made by the foreign office Saturday
that Japan had requested China to
postpone the project for re-establishs
ment Of q monarchial form Of govern
ment.
The foreign office statement lays
emphasis on the assertion that If Yuan
Shi Kai maintains the status quo and
continues progressive policies order
will be completely restored. but ex-
presses the fear that the move to form
a monarchy will seriously endanger
the interests Of the powers, especially
those Of Japan, who stands In spe.
cial relations with China. Z ~
1t is understood that Great Britain,
France and Russia have made similar
representations.
The foreign office statement de-
clares an undercurrent Of opposition
to a monarchy exists among the Chi
nese, and that 1t Is far stronger than
has been imagined. In fact, the for
eign office says, feeling Of unrest
is spreading in all parts Of China.
Emphasis is placed on the strong
desire Of Japan that peace shall pre-,
vail in the Orient, especially In this
era of war among the people Of the
Occident It is said that the warning
iB couched in solemn. but not threaten
ing, terms. Ass ~
China's reply, made to the Japanese
charge d'affaires at Pekin by Foreign
Minister Lu Cheng Hsing. is said to
have indicated that the government,
having called on the people to vote,
would not delay action If they decided
in favor of return to the monarchial
form. Delay In crowning Yuan, 1t was
said, would cause revolt and give
Japan an excuse to land troops.
