EMPIRE Burlesque, 2 and 8 p. m. A Stronar Piny at the rark. By .far the best attraction, of a purely dramatic class, that the Park has had this season la the military play. "Sergeant James," which began a half week's engagement at that theater yesterday before very large and very enthusiastic audiences; The play, which is one of Kirk La Shelle's productions. Is not one of the stereotyped melodramas with which the popular-price theatrical circuits are surfeited, but a carefully constructed stage story which Is so far above the average melodrama seen at the Tark as to stand out In bold relief In a class all by Itself. The play was written by Eugene Walter, and the author la to be congratulated upon getting away from the conventional and the commonplace. The curtain docs not fall at the end of each act upon a sensational climax in accordance with the outlandish rules which appear to govern melodramatic writers. There is but one climax; it occurs at the end of the third act, and although it comes in the natural order of things. It is so exciting, so thrilling, and, withal so excellently acted, that It causes even the clientelage of the Park's gallery to recognize the difference between a well-written play and those that have been merely thrown together. The drama tells a story of a young New Yorker, vho, having been disappointed In love, enlists in the regular army and is assigned to a post In Montana, where he wins distinction for the conscientious performance of his duties and Is made a sergeant. As luck will have it his former sweetheart and the man she has married come out. West to a town near the army barrack?, the husband having been given the position of superintendent of a silver mine. The husband Is a man of dissolute habits who gambles away his money, and finally. In order to save himself from financial ruin, enters Into a scheme to rob his own home, where his employer's money, the monthly payroll of the mines, has been temporarily concealed for safe keeping. His own wife, discovering the robbers In the darkened drawing room, and determined to keep the money from being stolen, takes down her husband's hunting gun from its place on the wall. and. trembling with fright, flres into the darkness, killing the man hose wife she is and who has made her life a miserable one. She is horrified when tho mask Is removed from the dead man's face, and sinks In a faint at his feet. Sergeant James takes the blame for the shooting upon his own shoulders, and at the subsequent court-martial attempts to make a martyr of himself to shield the woman he Btlll loves. Rut the truth of the matter comes out In a most unexpected way. and as the dead husband of the woman is shown to have had only himself to blame for the tragedy, the play ends with the suggestion that at last nothing stands in the way of the happiness of the sergeant and the woman he has always loved. The cast is a very large once, a feature of the play being its unusual number of speakin characters, all of which have an important bearing upon the story. William liarcourt makes an admirable hero, and Harold llartsell, Augustus Ralfour, Harry Gibbs, Joseph Manning and Hall McAllister. In other leading roles, give creditable performances. Miss Kathryn Purnell has the leading woman's part. and. although she makes the character too girlish for a woman who has experienced several years of marital woes, she gave a piece of very strong emotional acting at the end of the third art. Miss June Van Ruskirk and Miss Jane Field are clever In lighter feminine parts. As a whole, the attraction is one that will appeal to all classes of theatergoers, as it takes rank with the best melodramas of the day. Theatrical Notes. There has been a good demand for seats for the engagement of Jefferson De Angells in Sir Arthur Sullivan's comic opera, "The Emerald Isle," which comes to English's to-morrow for a matinee and evening performance. Indianapolis has not had a big operatic attraction since "The Sultan of Bulu." and theater-goers are hungry for an entertainment of this kind. XXX Julia Marlowe's contract with the manager of .the Criterion Theater, New York, calls upon her . to produce two plays, if necessary, during her current season at that house, but there does not appear to be much likelihood of a discontinuance of The Cavalier," which has proved as good a drawing attraction as "When Knighthood was in Flower." XXX Edwin Arden. well known to Indianapolis . theater-goers as the erstwhile star of .C lU'a X7.. aI.J ' cone regularly to the Park, is to star in ( high-class play Jn the near future under
iL KS
I I
Arden gave up starring in the popularprice houses he has been the leading; man with some of the strongest dramatic com
panies in the country. He Is at present playing tho principal male part In "The Ninety and Nine." XXX Here Is some good news. Indianapolis Is to have the celebrated Weber and Fields Company for a night or two when that brilliant aggregation of travesty stars makes its annual spring trip to Chicago. The dates have not been decided upon as yet. XXX In two weeks more Richard Mansfield's run at the Herald Square Theater will come to an end and De Wolf Hopper will then step in at that play house with his production of "Mr. Pickwick." About every large city In the country has seen "Mr. Pickwick" except New York a reversal of the usual order of things. xxx Lulu Glaser, who will be seen In this city the latter part of next week In the opera of "Dolly Varden," is said to be in better health and spirits than she has enjoyed for a long time. Miss Glaser's first run with her opera in New York was broken in upon by a serious Illness that at one time threatened to cause her permanent retirement. xxx Indianapolis theater-goers will remember Maurice Levi, the original musical director who has always appeared here with the Rogers brothers the one who, during the acts, faces the gallery and keeps time with his baton while the boys upon high whistle the melody of one of his own popular songs. Levi almost broke up the performance of "The Silver Slipper" In New York the night before last with one of his little pleasantries. It seems that "The Silver Slipper" has two musical directors Levi conducting the orchestra during the first half of the performance and Arthur Weld, an English musician, waving the baton during the latter half. Weld is decidedly "Londonish" and is given to wearing a monocle, much to his brother director's disgust. On the evening in question Lev! dimmed the Weldlan glory by appearing with a single-barreled eyeglass himself, gravely going through his work, while the members of the orchestra and all the chorus singers were convulsed with laughter. As it was Levi's first offense, the committee that met afterward to discuss the case decided to forgive him. Rut Weld will probably never forgive him as long as he lives. xxx Harry Morris, proprietor of the "Night on Rroadway" show, at the Empire, last night wired Charles E. (Parson) Davles, at New Orleans, La., an offer of 5500 a week to do his monologue "Consolation" between the acts of "A Night on Rroadway," and asked him to Join at once. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY.

DEBATE IN CONGRESS
late m:lso. dixglby defended by senator hale. Reply by Mr. Aldrich to Mr. Vest's Criticism of the Tariff Law and the Duty on Coal. CONSTABULARY BILL PASSED 131 PORTA XT PHILIPPINE MEASURE DISPOSED OF BY THE HOUSE. Work of Congressional Committees on Anti-Trust and Other Legislation More Pay for Consuls. I WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. To-day the Senate again discussed the Vest resolution requesting the finance committee to report a bill removing the duty on anthracite coal and Mr. Aldrich replied to some of the criticisms of Mr. Vest made last Tuesday. Mr. Aldrich insisted that the resolution would not accomplish the result sought and that it Infringed the constitutionad rights of the public in respect to revenue bills. Mr. Aldrich said that a Democratic Senate voted to put a duty of 40 cents on coal in 1894 and that they favored free coal except on the day when they could have voted free coal Into the tariff bill. Mr. Vest in reply said that the 40-cent duty on coal was the result of a "hold up" by a few Democratic senators. To confirm his assertion that Mr. Dingley had made the statement that the Dingley rates were placed high in order to negotiate reciprocity treaties, Mr. Vest read from a letter addressed to him by the editor of the Philadelphia Dulletln, in which the writer declared that Mr. Dingley made the statement to one of his Washington correspenddents. Mr. Hale expressed his disbelief in the statement and feelingly referred to Mr. Dlngley's services to his State and country and paid a high tribute to his character. The Dingley bill he regarded as a "great, magnificent and munificent gift to the American people in the cause of protection and prosperity." The resolution finally went over until the next legislative day. The bill providing for the retirement of Captain Richmond P. Hobson brought forth a protest from Mr. Cockrell, who thought Congress should not be made a court of appeals to hear applications from officers after they had been-declared fit for active service. Mr. Morgan characterized it as an exceptional case and said he did not Intend that Captain Hobson's reputation or character shall be damaged by any objection made against him. With some warmth Mr. Cockrell said he did not impeach Captain Hobson's character and the senator from Alabama could not twist his argument in that manner. "The senator from Alabama is not in the habit of twisting." retorted Mr. Morgan "He is as straight as a die, as straight as you are.- The bill went over. A House bill was passed amending the internal revenue laws, allowing all distilled spirits now in bonded warehouses or which may hereafter be produced and deposited therein the same allowance for leakage or evaporation which now exists in favor of distilled spirits gauged and deposited prior to Jan. i, l&rj. Mr. Nelson continued his remarks against the omnibus bill. 'A number of minor bills were passed and the Senate adjourned until Monday. The committee on military affairs to-day authorized a favorable report on Senator Proctor's retirement bill, which provides for the retirement of officers who served in the civil war with advanced rank. The bill was amended so as to make it apply to all officers below the rank of major general. All such officers who served in the civil war and whose service has covered thirtyfive years are to be given, when retired, the rank and pay of the next higher grade, and the service as enlisted men of those who ever served in that capacity is to bd counted as a part of the thirty-five years. The provision for retirement with advanced rank on account or wounds was stricken out by the committee. A joint resolution tendering the thanks of Congress to General Adna R. Chaffee and the officers and men who served with him in China was introduced by Senator Foraker. Senator Hoar presented a resolution tendering thanks to the officers and men of Company C, Ninth Infantry, who were at Balangiga. Island of Samar, on the occasion of the massacre which occurred there Sept. 28, 1901. The committee on the Philippines to-day took favorable action upon an amendment to the sundry civil appropriation bill suggested by Senator Lodge appropriating $2,600.000 for the purchase of draught animals for the Filipinos. The measure was prepared in response to a suggestion by Governor Taft, and the funds are desired to supply stock in place of that destroyed by disease. TWO ANTI-TRUST BILLS. Administration Measures Introduced In the House. WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. Two anti-trust bills prepared by Attorney General Knox were Introduced in the House to-day by Representative Jenkins, chairman of the judiciary committee. These bills are said to represent the views of the administration on the question, being along the lines of the suggestions contained in Mr. Knox's letter to Senator Hoar and Mr. Littlefleld. One of the bills amends the Sherman anti-trust law to strengthen and perfect it to meet the views of the attorney general, the chief features being a provision that it shall be unlawful for any person to offer, grant or give, or solicit, accept or receive any rebate, concession or service in respect to the transportation of any property in interstate or foreign commerce whereby such properly is transported at a less rate than that named in the published tariff of the carrier, a fine of J5.U00 being provided, and that tlw Circuit courts of the United States are invested with jurisdiction to prevent and restrain such rebates. The second bill provides for the appointment of a commission to carry out the provisions of the Sherman act as it is proposed to have it amended. It is provided that the commission shall be a bipartisan affair, but the bill as Introduced leaves blank the number of commissioners to be appointed, the length of their service and the compensation they are to receive. The commission Is to have a secretary, and neither the secretary nor the commissioners are to engage in any corporate business while holding office. The bill confers on the commission powers somewhat similar, though much stronger than those possessed by the Interstatecommerce Commission. Section 1, of the bill to amend the Sherman law, provides, "That It snail be unlawful for any person or persons to offer, grant or give, or to solicit, accept or receive any rebate, concession or service in respect of transportation of any property in interstate or foreign commerce by any common carrier subject to the act to regulate commerce, whereby any such property shall by any device whatever be transported at a less rate than that named in the tariffs published and filed by such carrier as is required by said act to regulate commerce. Every person who, shall offer, grant or give, or solicit, accept or receive any such rebate, concessions or service shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and on conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine of not less than ,000. "Sec. 2. If any joint stock company, corporation or combination, or any agent thereof, shall solicit, accept or receive any such rebate, concession or service as Is herein above declared to be unlawful, it shall be unlawful thereafter to transport any article owned or controlled by such company, corporation or combination, or produced or manufactured by it, whomsoever the same may be owned or controlled, from the State within which such article is produced or manufactured. If any such Joint stock company, corporation or combination shall offer, grant or give any special prices. Inducements or
advantages for the sale of the articles.
produced, manufactured, owned or con trolled by it to purchasers in any particu lar locality In order to restrict or destroy competition in that locality in the sale of such articles, it shall be unlawfal thereafter to transport any article owned or controlled by it. or produced or manufactured by it. by whomsoever the same may be owned or controlled, from the State within which such article is produced, manufactured or controlled, provided, however, that the prohibition (mpesed under this section shall not apply to any article purchases bona fide before decree made in pursuance here or against the joint stock company, corporation, .or combination producing, manufacturing or therefore owning or controlling the same; and, providing, further, that even after decree any such article may be relieved from the prohibitions imposed under this section If the owner thereof shall show to the satisfaction of the court having jurisdiction of the matter as hereinafter provided, that such article was purchased bona fide, without notice and within thirty days after the entry of such decree. Any transportation company and any officer, agent, or representative thereof, knowingly concerned in the transportation of articles in interstate or foreign commerce contrary to the prohibition of this section, shall be punished by a fine of not less than $5.000." Representative Jenkins said to-night regarding the measures: "They were lrawn by the attorney general and represent the views of the President and the atorney general on the subject of trusts. Tle bills will have my support in the House. When I say that, I do not want to be understood as having surrendered my convictions that the only way to rficiently curb the trusts 1? through an amendment to the Constitution. Rut 1 feel that it is mj .'uty to subordinate my personal views to the policy of President Roosevelt In securing any remedial legislation he desires." PASSED BY THE HOUSE. Philippine Constabulary Bill Adopted Measures Before Committees. WASHINGTON. Jan. 8. The House today passed the Philippine constabulary bill as it was reported from the committee, except for an amendment limiting the number of assistant chiefs to our. The bill provides that the chief of the constabulary, and the assistant chiefs, who are United States army officers, shall have the rank, pay and allowances of brigadier general and colonel, respectively, the difference between pay and their pay in their regular grades to be paid out of the Philippine treasury. The bill also provided that when the Philippine scouts are ordered to assist the constabulary they shall be under the command of the chief or assistant chiefs. The present chief of the constabulary is Captain Allen, of the army. Mr. Loudenslager, of New Jersey, introduced a bill providing that an applicant for pension or service of pension shall upon arriving at the age of seventy years be held to be wholly disabled and entitled to the maximum rating of $12 per month, In the admlnstratlon of the pension act of June 27, 1890. Mr. Mercer, chairman of the committee on public buildings and grounds, introduced a bill to increase the limit of cost of the proposed municipal building at Washington to $2.500.000. The committee on foreign affairs to-day concluded the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill which will be reported to the House. It carries approximately $1,900,000, which is less than the estimates and less than the appropriation of last year. Under the provisions of the bill Bulgaria is included within the territory of the minister to Greece, and a secretary is added to the legation In Switzerland at a salary of $1,500 a year. The consulate at Canton is raised to a consulate general and the salary advanced from $3,500 to $4.000. The salaries of the consuls general at Singapore, Marseilles and Auckland and the salaries of consuls at Pretoria, Rombay, Sydney, Hull. Tamauy (Formosa), Yarmouth (Honduras), Gaspe and Stanbrldge (Canada) are Increased $500 each. The allowances for consular clerks at Manchester, Hong-Kong, Sheffield, Canton, Sydney and Duenos Ayres are Increased in sums ranging from $200 to $500. The committee on merchant marine and fisheries after giving consideration to the resolution Introduced by "Representative McCall, of Massachusetts, providing that the privileges of the coastwise trade be granted to foreign steamers for a period of ninety days .for the exclusive purpose of carrying coal between American ports, directed that a resolution be introduced asking the House to authorize the committee to Investigate the entire subject of coal transportation.
