band I tlio federation , as other organizations '
have 1 grievances which they have been unable - } i
j1 able to fettle with roaeis because of the j ,
failure I of the federation to unanimously
'
sanction strikes , as Is reeiulred by the rules
of the order. I
It is declared the firemen and the tcleg-
raphcrs i have grievances In the cast which
are serious , and that there may be a general
disturbance as n result of the withdrawals ,
which are effective January 10. The ex-
ectitlvo offlcers held a meeting In Chicago

necessary by a disagreement.
The American federation Is composed of
the following organizations : The Order of
Hallway Conductors , the Brotherhood of

WASHINGTON , Jan. 5. Secretary Wilson
In an Interview fnlay emphasized the great
commercial significance of the "open door"
concert of the powers respecting China. Re-
spending , to an inquiry , bo said that but for
this action the United States would have
been shut out from trade advantages In any
province which ether nations might see fit
to take possession of. Ho said :
"Anything produced In the United States
will now permanently find Its way Into all
parts of the Celestial empire. Our trade re-
latlons there in the future are secured. Not
of the least importance Is the fact that the
permanency of the cotton market In China
13 oecurcd. The trade in cotton goods has
been very heavy in Manchuria and other
northern provinces. Our Interests generally ,
our dairy , poultry and other oroducts from
the farms of the United States , now have
assurance of permanent markets in all the
provinces throughout the Chinese empire
whore such things are In demand and this
demand la growing and will continue to
grow.
"The work of Secretary Hay In this re
gard supplements and compliments the
work of our army and navy. A year ago
no nation would have listened to a proposl-
tlon of this kind , but the whole world listens
to the United States now. The 'white man's
burden' came with the islands. Secretary
Hay's work brings the reward for lifting
the burden. Some Idea of the vastness of
the interests Involved may bo gained from
the fact that while ten years ago our ex
ports from the Pacific coast to all countries
aggregated $2C,000,000 , and five years ago
$42,000,000 , the steady increase In Pacific
coast exports has raised the aggregate to
$73,000,000 a year ago. "

Views of .lobii V. Croivpll.
WASHINGTON , Jan. 5. John F. Crowcll
of Brooklyn , a writer on economic subjects ,
was before the Industrial commission today.
His views upon the General conditions of
agriculture in the United States were given
at Komc length. He said that better results
had obtained in agricultural colonies that
had been founded In the United States than
where individual farming had prevailed. Ho
mentioned the German agricultural commu
nities of Pennsylvania and the Norwegian
communities of Minnesota as an evidence 1
of this fact. The school facilities of the 1
agricultural districts were now as good us 1
these In the cities.
Mr. Crowell said he thought the new gsn-
oration In the south would develop a prosperous -
porous agricultural industry , but It would 1
bo very different from the old agriculture
of that fioctlon.
The trouble with ths agricultural Industry
of the south was that It lacks directive !
genius ; that ha thought would be supplied
by tlio coming generation , provided they are
properly educated. He thought the meat am '
bitious people In the south today are to bo
found In the colored families.

It matters little the name of the opera to
bo sung , or by whom are Its lyrics , Its book
, or Its score written , so long us the Bostonians -
|
j | tonians are to sing It. This name Is a sufi -
i ! flclcnt guarantee of merit and always proves
I magnetic enough lo fill the theater to over-
; ! , ( lowing. The opening of the annual engage-
| I merit of this veteran operatic organization
1 Friday night brought out one of the mcst
fashionable and representative audiences
that has sat la lioyd's theater this season
and when the curtain went down upon the
, last act and the scores of prettily dressed
I
women and properly attired men slowly
| ' wended their way out through the lobby
i Into the street , the hum of converaatlon frc-
' qucntly Interspersed with audlblo words ot
! i praise told that the audience had been pleasIngly -
! Ingly entertained and that the Ilostonlans
| j are still capable of being considered upon
their present merits rather than for
mer successes. In both the male and the
feminine choruses the organization is much
stronger than It has been for years , In
i principals possibly not quite so strong , but
i for all that , comparisons are odious and
bygones are bygones.
] | As to the new opera , "The Smugglers of
j ! Badayez , " It Is qulto reminiscent of a long
|
; line of popular operas from which it seems
!
! to be a lineal descendant. In other words ,
j j It. la a potpourri suggestive In music , book
j and lyrics of a dozen others. However , Its
j , Author and composer' have' been so wise
| | in putting1 It together so trial It proves really
entertaining. "
The story briefly told is that of a Spanish
grandee who io about to wed an opera singer ,
but a smuggler who loves her denounces the
pretended noble to the soldiers as the for
mer leader of a band of smugglers. Bride
groom and bride are arrested and separated I
later ; both escape only to meet in the moun
tain camp of the smugglers , where the sol
diers again appear , this time taking to
prison the entire band of smugglers. In the
last act the degradation of the bogus gran-
I dec , the release of the smugglers from torture -
| ' turo and the happy mating of several pairs
i , of lovers are accomplished In true comlc-
j ' opera fashion.
Although the opera Is Spanish In locale ,
there It nothing In the music that Is char
acteristic of this "nation and but little In
j the costuming or stage settings. In the
j i latter the conventional street , forest and
i prison scenes are used. The dialogue Is
j j bright and witty and the comedy , the
j greater share of which falls to Messrs.
i Barnabe-e and Fitzgerald , Is exceptionally
I good.
I j ! There are a number of new faces notlcea-
ble among the prlnslpals this season , nota
bly these of John Dunsmure , Frank Hush-
worth and Marela Van Dresser. Mr. Hush-
worth , who will be remembered as having
sang the leading tenor role In "The Fortune
. Teller" here last season , replaces William
| Lavln. Mr. Hushworth Is not the possessor
. of a wonderful voice , although It is quite
' pleasing. His tones are rather breathy and
his voice lacks carrying power.
Mr. Dunsmtirp replaces Charles Broderlck
n.-i leading basso. Ho Is a young man and
a vocalist of much promise. His voice Is a
pure > basso and one of much .power and
quality. He has a pleasing personality and
a stage presence that canmt fall to make him
popular and thus assure hla future SUCCCSP.
Marda Van Dresser replaces Jessie Bartlett -
lett Davis t.s Icaillns contralto. 'Miss Van
Dresser , who was Miss Davis' understudy
two years ago nnd who last season scored
qulto a dramatic success In Daly's "Great
Huby , " Is a remarkably pretty southern girl
i of the characteristic brunette type. Her
i voice , while not by any means a big one ,
I Is a deep contralto of splendid quality and
BhowE proper cultivation. Her Intonation Is
good and her speaking voice splendid. All
three of the now principals were received
, with marked favor by Friday nlght'n audi
ence and the Impression created was most
favorable in each instance.
Of the former favorites Helen Bertram
Btlll stands out conspicuously and In the part
of Mercedes has some splendid opportunities ,
all of which are taken advantage of.
I William H. McDonald , as Marlnez , tdngs
j with his long-accustomed success , and Jo-
i scphlno Bartlett makrw quite a hit out of a
rather small and thankless character part.
Among the pretty vocal selections were :
Mlwi Van Dresser's "But One Spark of
Pity , " Miss Bertram's waltz song , "A Curi
ous Mixture is Love , " and her doll song ; Mr.
Dunsmurc's inarch song , "A Soldier's Life
Is Ono of Strife ; " Mr. MacDonald's "A Smug
gler's Life ; " a duet between Miss Bertram
and Mr. Hushworth , "O'er Our Love Forever
I Blessing ; " n duet , ' 'The Wlno of Malaga , "
by Miss Van Dresser and Mr. MacDonald ; an
interpolation by Mr. Barnabee of "In Funny ,
i Sunny Spain ; " a composition of S. L. Stud-
' ley's. There waa also a pretty quartet In
Act II and stirring flunks to Acts I and II.
S. L. Studley. who has been musical dl-
rector of the UostonlanH for over twenty
years , occupied the conductor's Beat. Not
u few were disappointed last night by the
nonappearance of the Omaha girl , Grace
Cameron , who , however , has no part In "Tho
Smugglers. " MUs Cameron was announced
for appearance only In "Robin Hood" this
afternoon and "The Serenade" this evening
and that she uas to appear lam night In the
now piece was a m'atakcn ' Impression.
