Some of the larger stock companies are admirable, and an intlnite degree of care is taken in the production of plays.

Noncommittal Reply to Envoy. William Evans of Philadelphia was sent as an envoy to Eallington 'Booth in New York to induce him to consent to the movement. While he diti not refuse point blank.

he put the envoy off and the matter was left in abeyance. The only result of the Chicago meeting was the sending of a protest against Itallington Booth's removal to tile general headquarters of the army in London. These officers who were urging revolutionary measures will now renew their request with a backing much stronger than before. All day today there was suppressed excitement at the various army headquarters in New York and itrooklyn. Army officers and privates were vehement in their denunciation of Gen.

Usual Grab Game Perpetrated on the Irving--Terry First Night-Every time a grand opera troupe comes to town, or a great dramatic production by really great artists from any quarter of the globe, the ticket scalpers get to work; and the long-suffering public, which can-sad take time to wait in line at the box-office sale, is made to pay double prices for seats. The present visit of Sir Henry Irving and Miss Ellen Terry and their London company of players presented the latest Opportunity for the machinations of the ticket brokers, and the sale of seats for the Irving-Terry engagement has been no exception to the usual grab-game affair.

The managers of the Columbia, put out a clean sheet," held no tickets tor anybody, and refused to sell snore than ten seats to one person. But they could riot prevent the settiper from placing his agents in the line. The brokers did have their men in line and suceeeded in securing a great many of -Lilo Lest sea ts. At the Columbia Theater on Saturday afternoon it was announced there were no more seats for the Irving-Terry perfcrmanee toda V. the house had bet sold out.

The box-()Mee price for the best seats was 9.42.:-.411 each. and ps ices ranged from that down to 50 CentS. A ca nvass of hotels. cigar stores, and buffets In the neighbornood of tilt: theater developed the fact there were plenty of tickets in the hands of the brokers. At one of these places, less than a block from the Columbia's doors, on Saturday night.

one of the scalpers boasted he had fifty pain--; of the Ltest seatstoo ticketsfor which he was asking apiece. At the hotels, front the downtown district as far out tts Twenty-second street, the same price was being demanded. and seine brokers at nearly every hotel had a few tickets. Assistant Manager Fair of the Columbia said last eight I do not believe ticket sharpers, have secured many seats this time. I think our sale at the box-oliice was freer from this sort of tiiing than any other in a long- time.

We kept the brokers away as much as possible. hnow those fellows anti we let nobody have more than ten seat. But you cannot stop it altogether. How are you going to prevent a selling to another what he has bought and paid for?" lb it d. (From the title page of the Savoy.

E. Brockway, the 71-year-ol1 counterfeiter, and two confederates, Wagner and Smith. are In jail at Trenton, N. awaiting sentence from the Federal Court. for condulqIng amazingly large manufacturies of spurious paper currency.

Brockway will probably never know hat liberty is again, as he is an aged man, and may be sent to prison for fifteen years. The trial was long and Interesting, particlady so because John G. Carlisle, Secretary of the 'United States Treasury, was subpecnaed as a witness and testified in the trial last Thursday. The government halt rested its case, -but it reserved the right to call Mr. Carlislo.

A quantity of paper, such. us Is used by the government in the manufacture of paper money. was found in a house occupied by 'Brockway. and it was the purpose of the government to leave no chance for the statement that Brockway came into the possession of it through the consent of the government. Secretary Carlisle came from Washington Li response to the subiagna, and his testimony lasted scarcely fifteen minutes.

The court room was crowded. In taking the oath he nearly forgot to kiss thP flhlie. Di.5- trict-Attorney Rice asked him his name, position under the government, and the usual preliminary questions. Then he was asked if he ever gave the defendants authority to have paper similar to distinctive paper used by the United States Clovernment for the obligations and securities of the government. Mr.

Carlisle scrutinized the faces of the defendants and replied that he had not. Being shown a pieee of the paper the Secretary was asked if he ever gave the defendants authority to have such paper. The Secretary gravely answered in the negative. and his testimony was at an end. Mr.

Carlisle then took the first train for Washington. Leaving the court room he placed 'tits hat bn his head before he reached the door, hut none of the court officials cried Hats off."

The program is not positively arranged after the first week, during which King Arthur will be produced. Six of the plays have never been given by my company in Chicago: and this city is to be favoied with one' Godefroi and Yolande has never yet bet presented anywhere. This new play is a little one-act mediaeval drama, written by my son Laurence, who is tnt years of age, an actor, now playing in the English provinces. Godefrol and Yolande is a strange, weird sort of a story, and will be presented largely out of deference to INIli4ti Terry's wishes. She will be in th? cast.

It is the story of a lepera subject which must be treated gently if not gingerly. But I have gone through it carefully and can guarantee there is nothing in it that could offend any one. tiodefroi and Yolande." The story is laid in the time of Philippe, King of France, and the scene in the castle of Lady Yolande. She is loved devotedly by Godefrol, who, for her sake and in order that be may watoh over and care for her during progress and ravages of the disease which makes its appearance soon after the story opens, voluntarily breaks all ties binding him to family and friends. I hope this little play will be well received here, and I believe it will be.

As I said, its presentation is a matter of sentiment with Miss Terry. Conan Doyle is the author of A Story of and I believe my Chicago friends will like it. It is the story of an old soldier, who imagines the world has stood still since the famous battle from which the play takes its title.

Mrs. Craigle wrote Don whieh is also one of the plays new to this city. The more of these it is possible to produce the better I shall like it. We had a five weeks' run of The Merchant of Venice in New York and it xtrernely monotonous. King Arthur is another of the plays new to Chicago, but so much has been printed about it the story must be quite generally known.

It is founded on the gend of Lancelot and Elaine and the search for the Holy Grail." You say your son is playing in the provinces; in what parts?" About Laurence Irving. Just now, Svengall, in Du Maurier's Trilby. You have had a remarkable run of this play in America. I notice, hut the interest in it throughout England not been less pronounced. The people in both countries seem to have gone crazy over it.

Why this is I am at. a loss to understand, unless it. be an Inherent leaning toward the mystic and the occult. Anything on this order may be depended on to draw a crowd at any time or in any country." Speaking of plays. do you notice a general change in the character of those presented to the public?" Basing a comparison with the time I first came to this country I should say without any qualifications.
