Bile for one bureau to control all mu-
inequalities.

2RECITALS GIVEN
In AE0LIAN HALL
Julia Claussen and Carl
Schlegel Have Interest
ing Programmes

There we're two song recitals yester-
day. both in Aeolian Hall. In the after
noon Nine. Julia Claussen, of the Chi
cago Opera Company. was the singer,
and in the evening Carl Schlegel, Of our
own Metropolitan company
Nine. Claussen was heard here in re-
cital last season. Hers is a mezzo-
soprano voice Of fine power and range
and of a good deal Of sensuous beauty.
II lacked at times yesterday complete
uniformity throughout its range, but it
was, on the whole, we'll produced, well
controlled and well colored. On her
programme were "Lascia chic pianga,
from Handels "Rinaldo"; "Pleurez,
pleurez, nos yeux," from Massenet's
"Le Cid 4 group Of Richard Strauss
and a group Of Grieg. In the Strauss
songs Nine. Claussen displayed con-
siderable sensitiveness Of expression
and conception.
Though Carl Schlegel is well known
d. LAt bHFfAs AdNh AAA i4e lfNAeAA " -
his first venture into the concert field.
II was altogether successful, and IL
would not be surprising II he found his
new field more fertile one than the
old. Mr.. Schlege's voice Is one Of
real lyric beauty, but one whose es-
sential virtues are lost in the great
spaces of the opera.
His programme last night was varied
and gave him ample chance TO display
his powers. At times there seemed a
lack OF lightness and color in his in
corporations, especially in such songs
as Haile's "Kleines Bachlein." but in
such numbers as Cairati's "Maimor-
gen" and in Horatio Parker's "Salve
Regina" the richness and evenness OF
mis- tones. the ease OF their produc-
ton and the simple virility OF his style
were altogether admirable.
With greater experience in the heder
field will come greater Elasticity. but
even at present Mr.. Schlegel Is a sing
er Of unusual merit and the possessor
Of a voice Of great beauty. Last nights
audience showed marked enthusiasm.

"FAT FOOL" LOVE

Modiste, Seeking 100000
Damages, Testifes Lyons
Rival Was No Phantom

Whitney Lyon, tooth powder manu-
facturer, will know to-day just how dear
his Dear Doll" was. 1t is expected
that the jury that heard the breach o.
promise suit brought by Miss Margaret
Council, modiste, against Mr.. Lyon
will render a verdict this morning.
The plaintiff has asked for 100000
George Gordon Battle, counsel for
the defendant, in ms summing up
dwelt on the two letters which Mr..
Lyon wrote 70 Miss Cornell, in which
ne called her Dear Doll" and signed
himself Yours for Health, Lydia Pink
Ham" and your Big Fat Fool
The lawyer said there never was any
proposal OF marriage, and the SUIT
merely was an effort 20 get money.
Counsel for Miss Cornell said that
Mr. Lyon could not laugh the case out
Of court.
Miss COnnell undertook yesterday 70
prove that the Mr.. Herndon, 10 whom
She had referred and who has been q
mystery during the trial, really ex-
listed She produced a letter which.
she said. he had written 20 her from
the American States Association
at the Hotel McAlpin. Il was signed
David c. HerndOn.
Miss Connel's story Is that Herndon
showed her much attention while she
was engaged to Mr. Lyon, as she al
leges, and that she could have mar
ried him and received an automobile,
too, if she had Tot expected 10 be
come the wife Of the defendant. But
she has been unable 70 find Herndon,
Miss Cornell said.
Miss Connell alleges that she and
Mr. Lyon were 70 nave been married
in Westminster Abbey, London. She
said yesterday that the reason Mr.
Lyon wanted 70 be married abroad
was that he did not want 20 tell ms

PEOPLE DISTRUST
JAPAN PREMIER
His Appointment Is Con-
sidered Blow at Pop
ular Rule

ToSo. Oct. 1.-The appointment Of
Cou7- Seiki Terauchi as Prime Min
istcr has caused an interest through
ou- Japan scarcely exceeded by any
political event in recent years
There are two chief explanations Of
fered at Toxic for the action Of the
throne and the powers behind 1t IN
placing in office a bureaucratic. non
party and military ministry in man
ner which excited the intense opposi-
tor Of the political parties.
The first is that with the European
war reaching a crisis Japan wishes to
place herself in a position 10 protect
her interests and has called on the man
who possesses the greatest influence
and authority over the military forces.
The second is that the statesmen are
secretly disturbed at the rapid growth
Of democracy. which recently culmlnat-
ed n the arrangement Of two parties,
and that they wish 20 check a cOnsti-
tutional progress for which they be-
iieve the nation is not yet prepared.
Tire latter explanation IS the one
that seems 20 appeal 20 the masses,
who. as their voice is reflected in the
mess. condemn Terauchis appointment
a. defiance Of the rights of the peo-
p,e and reactionary violation Of the
spirit and underlying principles Of the
constitution.
Viscount Takaaki Kato, exMinister
Tor Foreign Affairs. who was recon-
-na~ded for the Premiership by Mar
0uis Oxuma. but was rejected by the
Elder Statesmen. was yesterday elected
president OF the new political party
formed from the three groups which
have made Up the government majority
ir -he House. The name Of the party,
frs- selected as Rikken kyodokal, or
Co60erative Constitutional. has been
changed 70 Kenseikai, or Constitutional
rar-v. The great opposition group in
the House has been the Seiyukal, or
Political Friends Association. The
chief group entering the new constitu-
.io-al party was the Doshikal. which
vas founded by the late Prince Nat
surs.
The long smouldering contest be-
tween the bureaucracy and clan gov
eminent. on the one hand, and the
cor--ftutionalists was brought 20 a
head By the achievement OF Marquis
Osuma and Viscount Kato in ANAL
gararing the three groups which make
un the governmental majority.
There are many who believe the real
cause OF the retirement OF the Okuma
ministry was its failure in the diplo-
macy toward China. Business inter
ests have been particularly critical
The selection OF TeraUchl caused
great satisfaction in army circles, in
which as a distinguished soldier he is
a dominating figure, and IL generally
gave pleasure 20 what is known as the
elan or bureaucratic spheres Of the
nation
