THE THEATRE

The expenditure of a quarter of a
million dollars costumes worth a

200 persons, from director. scenario
writer's and art designers to an en-
semble that embodied small army

tremendous outlay in money, time
and effort given to the production of
"The Red Lantern" in which the in
comparable Nazimova appears at the

THE Red Lantern" is truly colossal
when it is judged by the combination
of the supreme artistry of its bril-
liant star and by the sumptuous en-
vironment provided for her and her

The total cost of producing The
Red Lantern" was, in round figures,

New York, Jan 30.-No decision will
be given for probably two weeks in the
case of Hal Chase, Cincinnati first
baseman, charged by officials of that
club with attempting to influence the
results of games last season. it was
announced tonight by President John
A. Heydler at the close of a five
hour trial at National League head
quarters.
Declaring that voluminous notes OF
evidence would not be in proper form
before Monday. Mr. Heydler said:
Il have taken the case under ad-
visement and intend to give it the
most thorough and careful considera-
ton. l cannot say how long it will
take to go over this mass of evidence,
but 1 will announce my finding as
early as possible"
The charges made against Chase
are brought under Section 40 of the
constitution of the National League,
which reads as follows:
ANY person who shall be proven
guilty of offering. agreeing, 'conspir-
| ing or attempting to cause any game
of ball to result otherwise than on its
merits under the playing shall be
| forever disqualified by the president
of the National League from acting
| as umpire, manager or player or III
any other capacity in any game OF
/ ball participated in by league club.
Chase was present and two lawyers
acted as counsel for him. No official
of the Cincinnati club was on hand
but John c.. Toole, another New York
| lawyer, looked after the leagues in
terests and cross examined some of
the witnesses. Manager Christy
| Mathewson of the Cincinnati club, who
is now in the United States service
in France, and Pitcher Perritt of the
| New York Giants were absent but
submitted afTidavits which were ac-
/ cepted in evidence.
Several witnesses were called, among
those examined being Major John J
| McGraw of the New York club, and j
z. NeaIe and J. Ring and Michael
/ Ring of the Cincinnati club while
| l. Q. De Passe, L. z. Rich and sid

mony as to character in behalf OF
