While the railroad shopmen who
pressed their demands the hardest

their leaders declare there will be no
strike Immediately.
Following the shopmen's lead other
railroad brotherhoods are apparently
keeping their demands in the back
ground for the time at least.
The danger of a break in the steel
industry lies in the possibility that
heads of the Steel Corporation will
persist in their refusal to meet the

other o5 counties in the state
The danger magnied There such prospect.
With the work OF equazng the throughout the

made genuine effort to property at its cash value in
accordance with the law.
The law has companion law which provides
that the assessed valuation of property increases the tax rate

treasury without affecting the property who has paid
reasonable assessment heretofore
The corporations will probably be hard hit Their
ment has been always proporouacy lower than the
small property The who has all but escaped entirely

The result will be that the will get a from
property that has succeeded escaping and property that has

New Lyric.

social and artistic treat Is prom
ised at the Lyric theater on Friday
and Saturday, when the distinguished
character actor, George Arliss, will
present for the first time here a new
and tense drama entitled Jacques
Duval."
Jacques Duval' was adapted by
George S. Kaufman, dramatic editor
Of the New York Times, from a Con-
tinental success, now the reigning SEN
sation OF Paris. George C. Tyler Mr.
Arliss' manager, believes that the new
play will prove to be one Of the strong
est In which Mr.. Arliss has ever APP
peared. 1t gives him character, a
suave and polished medical savant, in
which he particularly shines. For the
first time, also, the noted actor has a
role in which emotion is not absent
When the play came into the hands
of Mr.. Tyler he declared no other
actor on the English speaking stage
could adequately interpret the role. He
already had a new play for Mr.. Arliss,
and the preparations for it's production
were under way but after reading
Jacques Duval' Mr. Arlss readily
agreed to forego the production he had
contemplated, to play this character.
The new production has been most
carefully made. The cast includes a
score OF well-known names, among
them Elizabeth Risdon. last season
leading woman with William Gillette
III the Sir James NJ. Barrie fantasy,
Dear Brutus," at the Empire theater
New York. Others in to- cast are Will
liam Seymour. late stage director for
the Charles Frohman productions; J..
Palmer Collins, Mrs. Arliss and George
Barr.
