ABBOTT'S GIFT TO 1888
All That Glitters Coming To The
Maryland Theatre, Baltimore

All That Glitters Coming To The
Maryland Theatre, Baltimore
Cali That Glitters", the smart
laugh at the smart set which George
Abbott is having as his third pro-
duction of the season and first of
the new year, is headed for the Mary
land Theatre, Baltimore, Maryland,
on January 10. Broadway will see
the new comedy January 10th. Re-
hearsals are well under way with
Mr.. Abbott at the megahone and
John Root has completed his designs
for the settings.
The authors CT the social lark are
Jack Baragwanath and Keneth Simp-
son. "All That Glitters" is their first
play. When the two of them are not
engaged in keeping merry eye on
rehearsals, they take time out to
follow their respective professions of
mining engineer and physicist. Bar
agwanath is the amiable inventor, as
we'll, of parlor diversions for his
friends. Very full lives for a couple
of authors.
Allyn Joslyn, of boy Meets Girl"
and Hollywood fame, has come out
of the West to be the foremost,
prankster in the group of actors as
sembled for the gallop with Park
Avenue favorites. And meeting him
on his own playground is Arlene
Francis whom Mr.. Abbott brought to
light in "Angel Island.
Other names on the roster include
a number familiar to Abbott fans.
There is Royal Beals, another recruit
from boy Meets Girl; Edith Van
Cleve, a member in good standing
of the Abbott Acting Company,
Everett Sloane, also of boy Meets
Girl'. Carmel White, David Orrick,
Judson Laire, Barry Sullivan, Helen
Gardner, Jean Caste, Beverly Pha-
Ions, Edward Lester, Florence Brit
ton, Colin Dawson and George Smith
are the other actors joining in the
festivities of "All That Glitters".

AN ASTROLOGICAL FORECAST Of
WORLD EVENTS for 1sss
BY Zaniah
PART II

Washington, d. c., is the center Of
grave events around Feb. %, and
between June $50; July 80:
Aug. 25; Oct. SO. and Nov.
1870.
The Pacific Coast is under expan-
sive influences during the first four
months of 1898, and Is also under
them later in the year. A very sue
cessful two year period lies ahead
for the motion picture industry. Hol-
lywood will produce MASTERPIECES.
It is the eastern section of the
United States which will feel the eff
fects of fear, lack of confidence,
privation and hardship. Heavy bur-
dens will fall upon the people. Con-
gress will be fearful and will hesitate
to act, and, when acting, whatever
Is done will be done due to feel
ing of pessimism. Thus the stock
Exchange will react unfavorably,
with attendant losses to the very
ones who can least afford it. The
leaders in industry and business,
driven by fear, will seek to gain
through supplying warning nations
with war materials. Although 1888
will be worse than 1888, some
administrative measure will restore
confidence during August and Sep
TENDER. Congress will need to real
ize it's responsibilities Unusually
grave this year, to the end. But
through patience this country will
later be in a position to help other
nations and peoples. After the sum-
mer of 1899 better conditions will
come, first in the Middle West, then
on the East Coast.
SOUTH AMERICA
Brazil should enjoy prosperity
during the first half of 1898. Argen-
tina faces a governmental crisis dur
ing the last half of May and the first
week of June. Corruption, graft and
revolt threatens her. Sudden and un-
expected developments affecting
land, mining and agarian interests
seems in store. Chile has employment
and civic problems of more than
usual severity.
GREAT BRITAIN
January and February is exceed
ingly critical. The Prime Minister
plays for-and wisely so, for Time
favors Britain. The close of the year
will prove much easier for Great
Britain. Colonial troubles lie ahead,
with India being the scene of much
disorder and demonstrations on a
large scale.
FRANCE
France seems destined for domes-
tic troubles and internal dissension.
Plots against the government con-
tinue. The year is period of Transit
ton with employment and financial
adjustments. July and August are
very critical from the international
point of view. There is grave danger
of war. December brings another in
ternational crisis In which Belgium
is involved. Belgium plays strong
hand.
ITALY
The first five months Of the year
1898 are critical for Mussolini. The
last four or five months are even
more so, as dissatisfaction and un-
rest continues among the people of
Italy. Mussolini concentrates upon
Foreign Matters, but the need of the
people is for commerce and agricul-
ture. Much concern is felt over Eth
opia and Libya. The Mediterranean
Sea occupies Mussolini. Notice
Minorca (Balearic Islands). This
place is to play an increasingly i'm
portant part in World Affairs during
January, February and March. Libya
is also locale for important develop
ments later in 1898 and during 1889.

SHANGHAI, Feb. 13 Sunday
The Japanese announced today that
two vital railways into the heart
Of Shantung Province had been re-
opened making it possible to rush
reinforcements to japanese troops
driving southwark toward the i'm
portant Lunghai line.
The Tsingtao- -Tsinan and Tientsin-
Tsinan Railways, put out of commits
sion by fleeing Chinese soldiers sew
eral weeks ago, have been completely
rehabilitated, the japanese said They
asserted japanese offensives along the
Tientsin-Pukow and Peiping -Hankow
lines were continuing.
Reports last night stated Japanese
forces clamped pincer movement on
the western flank Of China's central
armies simultaneously with start of
q northern drive apparently aimed at
the 3,000-mile Chinese highway artery
to Soviet Russia.
Attempting to bottle up 100000
Chinese soldiers defending the Lunghai
railway zone, which separates the two
areas OF japanese conquest in China,
Japan's armies struck from the north
and south at the same time.
Eight Japanese columns in all are
trying to close in on China's central
defense forces in the rich agricultural
corridor connecting japanese occupied
territory of North China with the
Yangtze Valley.
japanese reported column, moving
south, had crossed the Hwai River
north OF Pengpu after a fierce battle
and was advancing steadily toward
Suchow, junction point of the Lunghai
and the Tientsin-Pukow Railways and
principal objective of the North China
campaign.

however, said more than 1000 Japa-
nese troops were wiped out in a
futile attempt to cross the Hwai Rive,

Indication of possible action toward

~
TOXIC, Feb. 12.-Japan tonight
fiatly refused to tell the United States
her naval building plans.
At the same time the japanese gov
eminent admitted its soldiers violated
American property in Hangchow and
committed disorders in Marking, but
outlined measures taken to prevent
recurrence Of such incidents.
Japan countered requests from the
United States, France and Great
Britain for information concerning
warship construction with an offer to
discuss numerical feet limitation, Al
though keeping secret any present
building program.
Fleet Menace Denied.
The formal note Of reply handed
United States Ambassador Joseph G..
Grew insisted Japan had mo lnten-
ton" Of maintaining . fleet that
would menace other nations.
An accompanying statement assert
ed Japan's naval forces were solely
for defense and declared other leading
naval powers must bear the response.
bility "for any future developments
such as world naval armaments
race"
Japan said it was unfair for other
powers Ito conclude dogmatically"
that Japan is building warships in
excess of the 35,000-ton limit imposed
by the 1896 London naval treaty to
which Japan does not adhere and for
the other powers to make current re-
ports Of such construction - reason
for their armament expansion"
The three powers had asked Japan
for the information February 5, the
American and British notes asserting
that refusal to reply before February
20 would be considered admission
Japan's plans exceeded the treaty
limit.
The United States declared she
would resume full liberty of action"
in the event of no reply. Escape clauses
in the 1896 London naval treaty pro-
vide release from the 35,000-ton upper
limit If any nontreaty power exceeds
the tonnage limit. Russia and Ger
many are bound to the limitation by
separate agreements with Great
Britain.
Conference Stand Repeated.
Japan's note reiterated her stand
taken at the London conference as
sertng she could not discuss limiting
the size Of battleships and their arma-
ments unless such discussions gave
primary importance" to the limita-
ton Of the size Of total fleets.
THE Japanese government fails to
see any logical reasoning for the as
sumption" Japan's naval plans are not
