One Hundred and Eight Mem bers of Berlin Opera Com
 pany Arrive in U. 5.

NEW YORK, reb. 13.-As the President Roosevelt, bringing the 10S members of the Berlin Grand Opera Company, plowed her way through the ice-choked water to her pier, song birds of tho company stood bareheaded on deck, singing lusty paeans of joy as they thought of the salaries of millions of mark which seon were to replace the star vation wages of their homeland
 The conpany's full chorus of co mon and womol intoncd the ch0rus from Wagnors' opera, "The Meister Singer while the principals of the company crowded, radiant -facod at tho rails fe1sting heir eyes on America.
 Happy" exclaimed ono of the prlma donnas. mo. I am more thal happy Only a few months ago sung in provincial German opera house and received 1S,000 marks for month for my work. That wls 80 cents in your money and l was the best paid singer in the house. Now will receive the equiyalen: of mil lions of marks a month and the ter rible struggle with want and worry will be at an end"
 Other members of the company pointed out that the best operatic stars in Germany are paid a maxi mum of about 100000 marks, or s4 a month, while minor singers received 50 cents a month.
 In America, it was declared, lead 1 ing members of the company would bo paid the equivalent of 25,000 000 singers and musicians would get sev eral millions.
 The opera company, which was said | by George Hartmann, its genera director, to be the first German com pany to be brought to this country will tour the United States, opening it's engagement in Baltimore on Feb ruary 26, then filling engagements here and in Philadelphia. Leo Bech. director of the chorus said the visit had been made pos. sible by the depreciation of the mark.
 At any other timc," he declared ''our Visit would have boon impossi- ble, burt with the dollar quoted at more than 20,000' marks many things have become possible for those fer tunate enough to possess dollans"
 Herr Blech said that despite the suffering prevalent in Germany the opera houses and theaters wore al ways crowded to capacity large portion of the audience, he said was made up of foreigners, who pay from five to len times the ordinary price for tickets.

Record, Goes To Pieces
Errors Arc Costly

New Britain Trade school journeyed
to Portland yesterday and took the
Portland High school team Into camp
by a la score. The game was fea-
tured by the numerous errors of the
Portland team which had won three
straight games so far this season. An
deem held Portland we'll In hand with
the exception of the eighth inning

balls and hit batter gave them their
four runs. Tn only one other inning
did Portland man reach third. An
deem sent nine to the bench via the
third strike route, allowed but five
hits, walked three ad hit one. He re-
ceived excellent support from Vance,
Kulikowski and Capt. Anderson. Har-
old and Miller shared the honors, for
the future mechanics on the attack
the latter lighting one over the fence
but was allowed only two bases by
ground rules. The local traders again
showed their speed pilfering seven
bases during the game. For Port
land, O'Brien and Olson were busy
men in the defense while Carlson
atoned for some of his errors by a
two base hit with the bases loaded.
Cynosko made the feature stop get
ting hot drive in back of third with
his bare hand. Murphy worked hard
holding the local sluggers :. to seven
hits but was handicapped by poor
battery mate. Basile having no less
than five passed balls. With average
support he would have made a much
better showing.

team is Saturday when they journey

Lamar wolf of Wall Street,
Calmly Faces D. S. Prison

United States, he maintained, was not
extraditable.
The Mexican court held, however,
that il was without authority to ques-
ton the presidential decree. Lamar
was taken to FL Paso and from III
PasO he was brought to San Antonio,
Friday night, by Agent Jones and
Agent Louis DE Nette, in charge of
the office ut Ell Paso.
Slept at q Hotel.
Upon his arrival here, he was turned
over to the United States marshal. In
view of his offer to bear the extra ex-
pense of allowing him to remain for
the night at n hotel under guard, La
mar slept in n room at the st. An
thony. Friday night. During the day
he was confined to the marshaFs Of
flee. He and Marshal Walker had
lunch together.
Powerful influences were excrtcd in
Mexico to prevent the deportation of
Lamar, il is rumored here. From an
authentic source it has been ascer-
tanned that Luis Cabrera, formerly
one of those who backed Lamar in
HIS operations III AlPAlCO.
Where Does He Get Money?
One federal official has expressed
surprise that Lamar Las been able to
pay for the privileges allowed him
during his stay in San Antonio. An
official who is in a position TO know.
said that Lamar did not have 10
cents when he was brought across the
river at FL Paso. His attorneys fees,
incurred by the hearing Mt Iorreon,
was paid by draft drawn on wo-
man in Mexico City, according to his
official.
Many stories of Lamar's activi-
ties in Mexico have been brought back
By federal officials who have been in
Mexico.
On one occasion. they said, the pos
sibility of dcporting Lamar to a
country of his own choice Was I'M
der discussion by Mexican officials.
Guatemala was suggested to the gugi-
tive.
With look of indispensable scorn
on his face he stared at the Mexican
official whose temerity had led to the
suggestion.

Guatemala" the fugitive inquired.
There isn't $3.50 in the entire conn
