MAN DIGS UP BODY
 OF WEALTHY WOMAN
Relatives Concerned Regarding Death Of Henry PlaSer's Widow

Wilmington, N. C., Sept. 21.-This, city has been excited by rumors for the last several days, to the effect that the body of Mrs. Robert w. Bingham, formerly Mrs. Henry Flagler, whose death occurred seven weeks ago in Louisville, Ky, and was buried in Oakdale cemetery, this city. would be distinterred at the request of the family and an autopsy performed to determine definitely the cause of her death.
 It is understood that the necessary permit has been granted by the county health department, of which Dr. Charles T. Nesbitt is superintend- ent.
 It is not known when the proposed exhumation of the body will take place. as no statement has been made by the only member of Mrs. Bingham's family in the city at pres ent. He has declined to say any thing.
 Friends of the family in Whining ton assert that a protest that will be filed to the codicil of the will of Mrs Bingham, in which she left Judge Bingham s5,oOo,o0o, is not based merely on the money involved, but that the idea is to show up the cir cumstances of the death of Mrs. Bing- ham, and set at rest for all time the humors concerning her death. All members of the family, it is said were we'll taken care of under the terms of the will, and they have no desire to open the matter merely to obtain mony.
 There is evidence in every quarter of efforts to keep the plans of the family from the public. The health kept of permits to disinter bodies, but that they are filed at the office of the cemetery, while the superin- tendent of the cemetry says that the permits, after being read by him, are returned to the health departm ent to be filed for record.
 The superintendent of Oakdale cemetery says that he must be given at least "A hours notice of the in- tention to disinter a body, and that, so far, he has received no notice.
 Guarded by day by the superintend- ent and his force and by night by two special officers, there is no chance of the grave of Mrs. Bingham being sons Instructions have been given that no one be allowed on the plot under penalty of indictment of tres. pass. Fresh flowers are placed on .he grave of Mrs. Bingham every day by a local florist upon instructions from the family.

REVOLVING STAGE
 POSTWAR PRODUCT
Lady Wyndham Predicts Continu-
 ouS Performances in TheaterS

London, August 31, (Correspond- ence of the Associated Press) The continuous play. presented perhaps on a revolving stage, will develop after the war, in the opinion of Lady Wynd- ham, wife of Sir Charles Wyndham, the British actor and theatrical man. ager. Before her marriage to Sir Charles. Lady Wvndham was Miss Mary Moore, an actress and his part ner in the management of several London theaters.
 ''The war;" she declares, in an ar ticle in the Pail Mall Gazette, twill probably supply motives for various plays long after peace has been re- stored-not the war which is ex- pressed in glimpses of battle, but the war as it shows itself in the hearts of men and women and influences their lives and their actions.
 My belief is that after the war an entirely new style of play will he evolved. and it will then be consid- cred old-fashioned to drop the cur tain and have an entr'acte. The practically continuous play will be due if it comes into being. to various causes. There is, among other things, a tendency for people to go to revues and music halls, where the curtains do not drop.
 Tt is an indication of the restless ness of the age. and it was noticea ble before the war. If these people are to be attracted to the theater, they must have plays presented to them which do not contain series of breaks. There may be rapid changes of scenes and costume. or there may be the same setting throughout the performance.
 ITO have the same setting from be- ginning to end in a successful play would mean the need for greater art on the part of the players. As for the writer of plays of the kind which I foresee, he will find the work quite easy if he is good craftsman
 One misfortune arising from a changed style of play will be the loss to the public of many fine examples of the playwright's art which have won fame in the past. It may be that theaters will have to be altered con- structionally. For instance, the sta ee of each theater may have to be of tEe revolving type, to enable the swift change of scene to be brought about as I suggest. Something of the sort exists at the Coliseum
 There is nothing more revolution ary in the continuous play of the fu- ture than there was in the past in

WINE APLENTY BUT
 COST IS GREATER
French Grape Crop 50 Per Cent.
 More Than Last Year

Beziers, France, August 30.-Cor- respondence of The Associated Press) -Frenchmen are in no danger of go- ing thirsty this year, but they will pay dearly for their favorite beverage un- less the government can check specu- lation in wine
 The yield of grapes will be from 40 to 50 per cent. greater than that of last year: last years crop was nearly fifty per cent greater than that of 1915, yet wine costs twice as much as it did a year ago and three times as much as it did in 1914. Ordinary table wines then sold at the equiv alent of 8 cents a quart for red and 10 cents for white, at retail They bring twenty-five cents, respectively, today.
 Acquisitions for the army lack of distributing facilities, scarcity of wine casks, bottles, and wine tank cars in- suff1ciency of help, high cost of fer tilizers and chemicals and the nat ural economic effect of war are given here in the wine country as the req sons for the rise. Another reason is the purchase of "wine on the vine" and successive transfers of the crop from one speculator to another, even before the grapes have ripened, the same system as adopted by specula- tors in coal importation licenses last winter.
 This abnormal dealing has made ordinary wines relatively dearer than the fine wines. Burgundies, clarets and good white wines, generally are abundant and have not increased ex- cessively in price. They are not so much subject to speculation and they escape acquisitions, but they suffer quite as much as ordinary grades. even moro in some cases, from the in- sufficient supply of bottles and casks.
 The minister of provisions proposes to either reauisition the entire crop, annulling all speculative contracts, and supervise the distribution to the retail trade, or ike maximum selling price at which common wines may be sold to the consumer.
 The opinion of the wine country was thus expressed by a grower of the Gard: They propose to limit the avail of the winesrowers work but no one has ever talked about keep ing down the profits of the merchants who sell us sulphate of copper and sulphur" said he. The great dan ger in these projects for limiting sell ing prices or requisitioning at arbi- trary figures is that winegrowers will simply abandon their vineyards: con-

AUDIENCE SHOUTS
 AT LA TOILETTE
Wisconsin Senator Declares United States Had No Reason for
 Entering War.

St. Paul, Sept. 21.-Cries of dis approval were shouted at Senator LaFollette of Wisconsin, speaking at the closing session of the producers and consumers conference here last night when he declared the United States should never have been at war and sought to defend the sinking of the Lusitania. The disturbance sub sided almost immediately and the senator proceeded with his address.
 Who is abroad crying in the loudest tones?" asked the senator Business. which is making money. The new projects of patriotism are masquerading in the livery of heaven while you are serving the devil.

WAR BUREAU TO
 BE ESTABLISHED
To Look After the Needs Of Local
 Soldiers

To take care of the New Britain lance service, Mayor Quigley is ma terializing plans to establish a war bureau. The two main purposes of this bureau are to furnish relief and information. The bureau expects to keep in touch with all the New Brit ain men enlisted and drafted, and help look out for their welfare. For any who wish 1t, mail will be for warded. Local people can secure any information about the soldiers and sailors from this city by applying at the bureau.
 The bureau will be established at the City Hall, perhaps in the office of the mayor. According to all plans and speculations this office will be a live place of business.
 Within two or three days com mittee will be appointed by the mayor to look after the affairs of the bu- reau. Already several prominent men have been secured to act on the general committee. Ernest N. Hum- phrey, Alfred H. Afford and Ernest N. Christ are willing to serve and either two or four men will be ap- pointed very soon to complete the committee. One man will be in charge of the bureau all the time. This man will be engaged by the com mittee to help out and will be paid from money raised by popular sub- scription for the purpose.
 There will be power given to each member of the general committee to appoint sub committees to take charge of some single branch of the work. There will be a tobacco relief committee, for instance, which will handle all the tobacco funds of the city with the cooperation of the va- rlous societies and individuals.
 The idea of establishing municipal bureau to take care of the needs of the local boys in camp and on the battlefield is as far as is known de- cidedly novel.

House Committee Comes t
IL the Protection of Many
Hawaiian Families

Caustic criticism of the action of the
Bishop Estate in selling to w. H. Nc
Inerny the land including the Puuo
Kamalii cemetery which. for the last
So years, has been used by Hawaiian
families as burying ground, is voiced
in a report presented in the house Of
representatives by the judiciary COM
mittee this morning.
The report says that the land in
question was inherited by Mrs. Ber-
nice Pauahi Bishop from Princess
Ruth, who allowed Hawaiians to bury
their dead there. But without protect
ing these Hawaiians, the report cons
tinues, the Bishop Estate sold the land
20 Mclnerny, who now proposes to de-
stroy the grapestones, level the prop
erty and use il as a park
1t is declared that McInerny is per-
forming an illegal act in interfering
with the graves, and the committee
has introduced joint resolution APP
propriating $4,000 to condemn the
Land in question, II the attorney-gener-
al thinks such proceedings necessary.
Trustees Criticized
"Your committee cannot help con-
demning in this report the trustees of
the Bishop Estate says the report,
.'who sold this property to Mr., McIn-
erny without protecting the rights of
the Hawaiian people who. througa the
wishes of Mrs. Bishop, had used said
place as burial ground, and also con.

heartless and brutal in the extreme.
