This makes a total of 16S.3S6 cases, aggregating PHILADELPHIA STOCKS TRADING DULL flflD IHREGIMR from Chicago state that an advance of $3 to $25 per ton bad been ordered by that company, which Is the largest concern of the kind west of the Allegheny Mountains. This is regarded as a beginning, and any further Improvement in the general demand for rails may be expected to be followed by another advance, probably to the price ruling in 1893. which was $28 per ton. The railroads are beginning to be more liberal with their orders, but they are yet far below the average, taking only such materia as necessity requires. They would probably be beeter off In the end If they were to make contracts at present prices and carry rails in stock.

Contracts for large blocks of Bessemer pig are reported at $12 In the valley, and billets have been taken at $18.50 to $18.75 at Western makers mills for delivery during the third quarter of the year. Reports from all over the country show rolling mills to be making full time, with the demand still heavy. Bar iron has advanced $1 per ton in the West, while here in the East the-Increase has been 0.1 cent per pound. Foundry iron Is 50 cents per ton higher, and the demand Is general. MARGERCM THOMSON.

London Sen Bernhardt and Dose in tht Sum Part oa the Same Pay. From a Correspondent of The Tnra. Lo-NTxm, Jnne 16L To see two of tbe greatest actresses in the world one might say without much fear of contradiction the two greatest actresses of the world In the same part on the same day Is not a common experience, but any Londoner who chose could do so yesterday, when Sarah Bernhardt and Eleanora Duse played Magda, the former at Daly's Theatre at a matinee, the latter at Drury Lane at night. Herr Sudermann's domestic drama Is known In America, In some cities at least, for Madame Modjeska has appeared In an English version of it, and therefore the story may be dismissed with a few words. But it will be Interesting to go at rather greater length Into tbe respective merits of these stars in tbe dramatic firmament as they present themselves In this particular play.

Magda Is a self-willed girl, tbe daughter of an uncomfortably dictatorial, despotic old gentleman, who having been a colonel In the army wishes to continue in bis household the traditions of the barrack room. Being high-spirited no less than self-willed, she objects to this theory, and when the old martinet carries his patriarchal system so far as to insist upon her marrying the village pastor, she breaks Into flat rebellion and is promptly turned out of the house. Not unnaturally she falls a victim to a plausible scoundrel, who shortly deserts both her and her child. Being gifted with a voice, she tries singing as a profession, and meets with a success that speedily changes her from a starving, miserable outcast into a fashionable artist, rolling in money, and with all the world at her feet. It Is ten or twelve years from the day when her father in a fit of fury cast her out before she revisits her former home.

The family has lost sight of her. No one has any idea that the singer whose name and fame are so widely spread is the missing daughter. This is tbe point at which the play opens. We see the household with Its pig-headed father, its nonentity of a mother and its one child, a charming daughter, the youngest sister of Magda. Friends come with tbe news that the great singer of the world has come to the little town, and that she is the long-lost one.

Through the whole, of a dreary first act the old idiot of a father refuses to see her. far less receive her. His scruples are at last overcome and she Is summoned. The fashionable artist In her silks and her furs and her jewels sails into the little parlor of faded gentility. It Is the situation familiar In a hnndred plays and stories, but with a difference.

After the jars and bitches that inevitably attend such an occasion, all seems to be settling down quietly, when without a moment's warning Magda receives a visit from her old lover, who has become (outwardly at least) respectable, and is a high civil functionary in this very town. This Is a great scene. He, of course, wishes to let bygones be bygones, and so on; wishes to become friends again; is not averse to marrying ber (for is she not etc She loathes the man, and heaps upon bim every sort of scorn and insult. She frightens him out of his wits every 'time she raises her voice, for his career would be ruined were this chapter of his past life published. By chance the old father learns me secret, ana as tne uesr.

way 01 saving the family reputation he insists on her marrying the scoundrel. After long resistance sue agrees, aud mere is anotner scene between the two. She consents to sacrifice herself and her happiness for the sake of tne ramiiy. isne even consents to give up her art, as this smug, black-coated official wishes It, but when tbe man refuses to have anything to do with. their child and requires Magda to renounce it, she rises in her wrath and turns him out of tbe room.

Her father tries to persuade htr to agree, or to accept some compromise, but her blood Is up, and she will not have anything more to do with her betrayer: will not marry him on any terms. In a fit of fury her father seizes! a pistol to put an end to everything, but in the very motion is seized with a fit and falls. aeaa. mis is tne ena 01 tne piay, aua tne sequel must be Imagined. It requires but little acquaintance with tbe methods of Sarah Bernhardt to recognize that this sort of character affords little scope for her special effects.

She is at ber best when acting a part within a part, when dealing with complex feelings, though it goes without saying that she is also great In straightforward love-making. She starts, so to speak, with thirty per cent, of fustian in her dramatic composition, and has to get rid of that, or at least conceal It, before she can begin to represent a simple honest womau. Tbe agonizing maternal solicitude for her child, the uature-bred feeling common to her sex, comes with a sort of strain from her. Her very appearance Is in conflict with the joys of her domestic hearth. And so when Magda has to show that side of her character which consists in a passionate love for home and kith and kin the actress fails to convince; we feel she never could settle down to this shabby genteel existence.

The other side of the character Is, of course, far better. She does show us the spoiled child of the musical world, brave in her fine raiment, accustomed to the admiration of tbe highest and best in society, aud therefore doubly and trebly disdainful to the little tin god who had so cruelly deceived her. But even in those scenes she is something wanting. In spontaneity and nature. She is too obviously theatrical.

It is a flue everything that Sarah Bernhardt does Is line. But it lacksrthe nutural touch. Of Eleanora Duse, on the other hand, it is difficult to speak without seeming to exaggerate. Whatever critics may say about her "Dame aux Caroelias," It must be unanimous in her favor as to her Magda. She is not an actress; she is the woman herself.

Her affection for her father and mother, tempered by the recollection of the manner In which they had treated her; her bubbling over love for her little sister; her calm Indifference to the suggestions of Interfering relatives; her complete scorn and loathing for her betrayer all are exhibited so completely and so naturally that Magda lives before us. We see that she could leave the stage at once and take up the thread of hep former life again (If only that irritating father would have a little more tact), whereas we feel that Sarah Bernhardt could not. And to come to details, what could be more touching than her first embrace of her sister, her worming out the secret of the child's little romance with her cousin the lieutenant; her half penitent, half resentful denunciation of the wretched cur who, having ruined her when she was nobody, would fain get her favor now that she is an important personage. Never, perhaps, has lan guage Deeu more BKiiiuiiy sponen tnau in the scenes with the scoundrel. She plays with words as though they were a musical instrument.

Sarah Bernnadt has great- very great enects witn language. She can undoubtedly speak a set speech better than her rival. She can alternate the raging torrent with the dripping of a golden fountain. But she cannot break up and toss about and Intermingle like Eleanora Duse. It is a rare gift; almost a unique gift.

Mrs. Stirling not without It in her prime. It is Impossible to avoid a comparison between these great artists, and Indeed, without resorting to comparison, dramatic criticism, which, unlike criticism of the other arts, is purely matter of opinion, would be worthless. What constitutes the right of this or that man to offer judgmept? The knowledge that comes from study and experience. How Is experience By comparing different actors.

Without that base on which to work, no one cau sny. what effects are within the artist's reach, or how they would work out In practice. All would be mere conjecture, worth nothing for practical purposes. Comparison in this case tells us that whereas the French artist Is the greater in certain types, the Italian is greater In such a character as Magda. Ascob.

Pennsy's Vacant Directorship. The death of H. H. Houston makes the first vacancy In the Pennsylvania Railroad Board of Directors that has occurred since March, 191, when Vice President Du Barry died. The question of succession is already being discussed.

The board will hold Its regular semi-monthly meeting next Wednesday and it Is just possible that the matter may receive attention. Tt Is nowever, that out of respect to Mr. Houston his successor will not be chosen until fall. Moreover, the directors are about adjourning for the summer, so that there would appear to be occasion for haste In filling the vacancy. Mr.

Houston was a member of the road committee, which Is perhaps the most important sub-division of the board, having oversight of all matters pertaining to the road proper. Associated with him on this committee were A. J. ('as-satt. Henry P.

Welsh, William L. Elklns, Clement A. Oriscom and Amos R. Little. Mr.

Houston was. also on the supplies and real estate The Sepablicaa Leaders Actively Preparing for the Fight of lfext Tear. Special Telegram to The Times. Media. June 22.

Tbe Republicans are already stringing wires and oiling the machinery In of -that they, may be In readiness for tbe ft, of next year, which will involve the factn of the G. O. P. In a struggle that promu to result, as usual, In favor of Congressiii Robinson. Aspirants for the various offices are takli time by the forelock, and already, near) one year in advance of the nominating convention, many candidates have announced themselves.

The genial Congressman from tbe Sixth district, who has been somewhat at variance with the powers that were in the Republican conventions of recent years, sees in the formation of the Martin-Porter combine a possible chance to acquire in the councils of bis party the position he and his friends think he has deserved by his services in the past, either by securing concessions from Senator Quay or by allying himself with the Philadelphia combine, which has been quietly securing the adherence of leaders throuchout the State, such as State Chairman Gilkeson. Chris Magee and others, which. If It can remain cohesive, will give trouble to tbe present directors of the Republican party in the State. There is a disposition among the voters of Delaware county, in the country districts, to oppose the silver people, and as Congressman Robinson Is exceedingly astute, and as the three members of tbe lower house and one of the State Senate to be elected next fall will vote for Senator Cameron's successor. It's dollars to doughnuts that the Robinson followers will be found against tbe re-election of the senior Senator, unless it can be proved to his satisfaction tnat Senator Cameron can secure re-election.

What the Congressman wants Is recognition, and that of a substantial sort, and it's likely he will get It. LOTS OF HARMONY AND CANDIDATES. There was a feeling that next year would be selected as the time for some of the leaders who have been following Robinson's lead to break away and go Into business on their own account, but that has died out since Prothonotary Mathues forced the nomination of his man Young for Recorder at the recent county convention. It Is evi dent an agreement has been arrived at be tween the two, as the result of which Matbues won't "play in Congressman Robinson's back yard." and will be given tbe nomination for State Senator next year to succeed Captain Jesse M. Baker, who Is servinc his first term, and who will be a candidate for re-election.

W. C. Sproule, of the Chester Times, is also a candidate. This will precipitate a fight at the out-start, but the Robinson people are confident they will control the next county conven tion, and do not fpar their opponents. The three present members of the Legistlature, Ward R.

Bliss, of Chester from the South-ern district: Thomas H. Garvin, of Sharon Hill, from the Eastern district, and Kichara 1 Ftnldwin. of Rirmlnirhflm. from the North ern dlRtrict, are all candidates for re-election. Baldwin, who the Koblnsou people claim slipped in last year, will probably be op- posed by George E.

Haybura, of Blrming- ham, and John E. Burnley, of Mlddeltown, the latter being sure of the Robinson influ- ence. It is said that Count Chairman J. Milton I Lutz Is also desirous of Legislative honors. I The bitterness engendered oy tneJuogesmp fight of last year, when the re-election of Judge Clayton was made possible by a deal with liquor men and corporate influence, will break out afresh, but the alliance that re- pcted Clavton was a strong one and will dominate the party next year, so far as can-be seen at present.

Nevertheless Captain Jesse M. Baker and Tom Cooper will muster the old guard for another tilt aild make the best fight thev can. J. H. Marshall, of Darby, has announced himself for Sheriff, a position he came within three votes of getting three years ago.

He will have Kootnson support, u. Newhard, of Fernwood, who was a strong candidate for Countv Treasurer, has drawn out of the flebt. having received a license for the Fernwood Mansion, aud as yet no one has been settled on. LOOKING FOR THE STRONGEST COMBINE. The Delaware county leader has been visit ing Senator Quay at Brigantlne Beach, and Captain Jesse Baker, it is said, has been interviewing some of the Philadelphia combine, but goodness knows where they will eventually land, as they are both watching to see how the cat jumps.

It's a queer aggregation, anyhow, that Is mustered under the Robinson banners, ana It Is no wonder that some of them want to take a flyer on their own account. There's nistrlot Aftornev W. J. Schaffer. of Chester.

and another bright young lawyer, Joslah Smith, late chairman of tbe county committee, who will ably fill the position of Public Prosecutor if Schaffer secures the Associate Judgeship that Delaware county has obtained by the Legislature's reappor tionment bill; J. w. 01 unester; Joseph H. Huttle, of Lynnewood; W. B.

MrOIPlnhnn. of Tralnor: Prothonotary Will- lam L. Mathues, who Is developing consid erable strengtn; jonn wannum, 01 jnes-ter, ex-DIstrlct Attorney, and who has many backers for further advancement; William H. Bayers, of Wayne, who was formerly a strong Cooper follower, and many other lessor lights. That ft will be Impossible for Congressman Robinson to keep these men In line for a long time goes without saying and some of them have admitted that they are only waiting a chance to form an effective anti-Robiueon combination that will not be dominated by Ex-Collector Tom Cooper.

EQUAL CONGRESSIONAL TERMS WANTED. Besides these things that are enough to keep even one of Robinson's sanguine temperament busy keeping his lines straight, he wants to succeed himself In Congress and Is endeavoring to. secure a change of rule in the Sixth Congressional district, composed of Delaware and Chester counties. Under the existing agreement Chester only gets four terms aud Delaware county three, but Congressman Robinson cinlms that as his county gives a larger majority than does Chester, his county should get the same number of terms that Chester does. There's going to be fun and lots of it next year in Delaware county.

NEW YORK STOCKS WERE WEAK Sugar in Particular Broke Badly and Some of the Other Industrial! Sold Off in SympathyBeading and the Coal Stocks Generally Displayed a Reactionary Temper.

The Weekly Bank Statement. Local speculation was small in volume yesterday, and changes In prices, in most cases were unimportant. The weakness in New York induced some realizing sales here, but all offerings were readily observed. Metropolitan Traction was a feature. It opened at lO'nj, reacted to rallied to m.

and then again sagged off to 101, which was bid for it at the close. Three prominent bouses with New York connections were the largest buyers, but the orders were about equally dlrlded between New York and Philadelphia purchasers. To keep in with the fashion, someone started the rumor that the Manhattan Elevated Railroad Company had offered to lease the property for ninety-nine years, on an advancing scale of dividends, beginning at 6 per cent, per annum. Local interests in the property had heard nothing of the deal, and characterized it as a speculative rumor, which it probably is, though in the past there has been some talk of an alliance of some kind between the two companies. Such an arrangement would certainly be most advantageous to the Manhattan, which is dally losing traffic diverted to the surface cable roads.

Nothing had been heard of the matter until yesterday, but as Manhattan broke $2 per share, and none of the local interests in the Traction Company had any Information about the matter, the rumor was probably only a rumor. The remainder of the Traction stocks were quiet. Baltimore showed increased strength, advancing to 20-, closing 2(4a204. and Indianapolis touched 50. at which there was fairly liberal trading.

Electric was without sales, and People's was also neglected, only a few shares being dealt in at 61vsa62. The company continues to report phenomenal earnings. Last week gross receipts averaged $7,000 per day. while for the first 21 days in June an increase of $81,660 is reported. This is an average Increase of nearly $4,000, and it Is expected the Increase for the whole month will reach $100,000.

Philadelphia Traction was traded in in a small way at A 100-share lot of Hestonville was made at 59; this was the only transaction. The heaviness of the stock recently has been a disappointment to the street, but It was explained yesterday that it is due to the liquidation of the stock owned by the late president. Johns Hopkins. He' held about 1.400 shares, and his executors instructed a Library street brokerage firm to sell it, naming 59 as the lowest price they would accept for the stock. It is understood that only a few hundred shares remain to be sold.

There was little doing in the industrials. United Gas and Welsbnch Light were both dull, the former selling at 79ia79. and the latter between ii.s14a.Yi1,. The deal in which the two companies are involved may be announced earlier than has been expected. Its main feature, as has been already stated in this column, is the formation of a new company, which will act as commercial agent, thus -abolishing the use of middlemen in handling the Welsbnch lamp, so that the profit the agents have been receiving will go to the new company, control of which will be largely vested In the United Gas Company, new company will also.

It is understood, control a number of smaller light companies. Cnnadiau Welsbach was slightly firmer yesterday at 5a5. as was also Electric Storage Battery common at the preferred stock was unchanged at 224a. Cambria Iron allotments were firmer at 10all. Less than 5.000 shares of railroad stocks, all told, were dealt In.

St. Paul brought Lehigh Valley 37, Pennsylvania Lehigh Navigation Northern Pacific common 4a3. and Reading 8 ll-16a3 9-16. Some operators look for renewed activity in the latter stock this week, basing their opinion upon the return of Mr. Morgan and his well-known disinclination to deny or confirm rumors.

This makes it an easy matter for "Wall street to start a movement in Reading through rumors affecting the anthrnclte coal It might be well to note in advance that Mr. Morgan in his Friday Interview said he would not discuss the coal situation, as he was not acquainted with its condition. If this is the case, Mr. Morgan will be too busy for the next few days at least with other matters to take up for consideration the anthracite troubles. Therefore, rumors connecting him with efforts to improve the trade's condition may be put down for the present as emanating from Wall street, which -means they will have a speculntive purpose behind them.

The New York market was weak. Promi nent operators were sellers, and the stocks In which they were, active Drone suarpiy. Sugar, for example, dropped from 117 to 114 and closed lower, witn 114 run. Man hattan Elevated, as stated, lost two points, and the coalers also continued their reac tion. The grangers receded for fractional amounts, and the industrials were lower In sympathy with Sugar, which was about the only feature of the half day's session.

The weekly statement of the associated banks of New York did not present any important changes. An Increase of $4,880,500 In loans Indicated a further improvement in the use of money. An Increase of $390,100 in legal tenders and a decrease of $394,000 In specie, made the loss in lawful money only $3,900, buf the increase of $5,643,000 in deposits necessitated a larger reserve required by $1,410,750. so that the loss In surplus re serve was $1,414,650. reducing the total of that item to $36,544,250.

Each of the various creditors of the Pennsylvania and Maryland Steel Companies received yesterday a copy of the following notification from the reorganization com mittee, to which the signatures of Effing ham B. Morris, chairman, and Alfred Earn- shaw, secretary, are attached: "Dear Sir- Your certificate of Indebtedness of the Pennsylvania and Maryland Steel Companies is herewith returned to you, together with a check for the Interest upon the full amount of same up to June 21, 1895.

Tile new securities cannot be Issued and distributed until the new preferred stock of $1,500,000 shall have been fully paid for after October 15, 1895, but the committee have preferred to make a cash payment to, creditors at the enrllest possible moment since the property passed into their control on June 17, .1895. The charter of the new company is now being applied for." Baltimore and Ohio Relief Work.

An experimental test of the new electric locomotives on the Nantasket branch of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Rail road, Friday night, was surprisingly satisfactory. The few officials of the com pany, who were the only persons present, believe that It Is a Ion? step towards revolutionizing passenger traffic on railroads. On spurtR the engine made between forty-five and fifty miles an hour with ease. The possibilities of the electric current were shown to an extent never before known to railroad men. The first locomotive used weighed pounds and was equipped with four motors.

The second engine had two motors. Roth trials were equally satisfactory. The success of the experiment was more marked In view of the fact that the average power usea was oniy oiiu volts, wnerenB in run working order it is intended to run under a pressure of 750 volts. Before the formal opening of the road, in two weeks, it is asserted that one of the locomotives will show a speed of over eighty miles an hour. No Suit Probable.

In regard to the report that a suit Is likely to be instituted against the Northern Pacific Railroad by preferred stockholders, contesting all the bond Issues coming after the first mortgage. President Brayton Ives says that be has not heard of it, and he was not Inclined to attach much Importance to the matter untjt he had made further Inquiry. The idea was ridiculed on the "street," and the opinion Is generally expressed that the preferred stockholders gave up their so-called bond rights when the road was sold at the time of the last reorganization.

The test of the sixty-foot steel rail on the Pennsylvania Railroad has shown that it possesses many advantages over the thirty-foot rail, formerly used on all the principal railways of the United States and Canada, and the local officials are of the opinion that the new length will be made standard on all the Pennsylvania lines. Some time ago a section of one of the Pennsylvania railroad tracks between Brlnton and Swissvale was laid with the sixty-foot raite as an experiment, and the test has so far shown highly satisfactory results. Not only does the long rail enable a track to be built with fewer joints, but it makes the cars run easier and almost noiseless. On the Pullman ears, which are equipped with paper wheels, there is scarcely any noise made when passing over the section of track laid with the sixty-foot rails. Rails first begin to wear at the joints, and the Joints give the track hands a sreat deal of trouble as they begin to sink or get low, making a rough track.

The bolts work loose in spite of all the nut-locking devices that can be applied, and require constant attention. The joint being the weak part of the rail, it therefore stands to reason that fewer joints must mean a better and more durable track. The Pennsylvania Railroad officials recognized these facts years go, and, wrth the advent of improved machinery In steel mills that permitted longer rails to be made, they were quick to take advantage of the opportunity that enabled them to give the sixtv-foot rails a test. If sixty-foot rails are an improvement, one-hundred-foot rails would be a still greater improvement, and such mav eventually be used, for thy present It Is stated on reliable authority the sixty-foot rail will be made the standard op all the lineR of the Pennsylvania system. Rails of this length are now being laid on the Fort Wayne, near Canton, on the Little Miami division of the Panhandle.

It Is understood that. the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Is also going to use long rails on all new mainline track constructed In. the future. Iron and Steel Markets. The Iron and steel markets gave further evidence of their Inherent strength the past week, and certain important advances in prices were made.

Notable is the higher price for steel rails. Pennsylvania companies, un der the lead of Cambria Iron, took the Initia tive and added $2 per ton to recent quotations, making the present price $24. Illinois steel did even better, as private advices 1..
