PARIS, Sept. 6. (New York World Cable

ingly unimportant matter has ever caused
such a heated controversy here as the court
decision that an actress' husband Is always
entitled to free access behind the scene?
The esse grew out of a manager refusl
to admit a aoubretts husband.
actress demanded that her contra?''
canceled and that she be paid heavy
age. Th court held that stage llt -mlttedly
expose a woman to constant
temptations, or, at least, undesirable at
tentions; that it la a legitimate desire on
ths part of a wife to be protected against
such things, and that, at any rate. It U
th Indisputable right of a husband to be
her protector, whether she realizes the
necessity for one or not; that a manager
oannot deny the husband free access to the
wings or dressing room and that an actress
cannot sign away thla privilege. The case
was decided against the defendant Theater
managers are highly indignant. One says
he sometimes employs 200 chorus girls, all
of whom say they have husbands or fiances,
and hs foresees an awful invasion by the
husbands. Many actresses construe th de
cision aa a reflection upon their respecta
bility. After bearing Ellen Beach Yaw alng in

IRON EXPORTS ARE IMMENSE

LONDON, Sept , Commenting on th

are the most remarkable in Hit, history of.
tbo trade, and' say -jm--"Ther
la a hunger tor material amount
ing almost to a famine, r notwithstanding
that the Industrial depression on th con
tinent lias abated the activity In this coun
try. Every liner from the Clyde and the
Mersey Is taking aa much pig Iron to ths
United Statea as it cares to carry. Steamer
after ateamer Is being chartered to carry
loada from th west coast ports to Balti
more, Philadelphia and other points. Th
latest movement for tonnage to convey pig
Iron from our shores to New Orleans, Pen-
sacola and other porta Is perhaps the most
striking of all. One notable feature ia
the large quantity of Iron and finished
steel which' America la now drawing from
thla country and Germany."
While representatives In London of Amer
ica said that they bad not bought a single
pound of Iron In England for American
consumption. It was learned at one of the
offices of one of the largest Iron factories
in London that the export account of Mid
dlesbrough alone showed a remarkable in
crease In exports to the United Statea
during the last three months. Ths sales
of pig Iron rose from 4,000 tons in June
tot 23,400 tons in July and 24,800 tons In

credited with having spent 110,000 a month
on himself, but his taste was so good tha:
thera wss no vulgar ostentation.
One he said to a rrlaadV according to
accepted report: "Two thousand pounds
a month pay for the necessities of life
for a gentleman clothes, horses, car
riages, yacht, grouse moor, country plane
and all that. You know, of course, it
you want luxuries, it costs more."
He bad an extraordinary mania for
clothes. It. is estimated that in a fire
at his country place three yeara ago be
lost 1,100 neckties. At on time he is
said to have had more than 600 pairs of
trousers, while new boots stood in rows
In cupboards. He hsd thirteen new over
coats all at once, the story goes, which
he never even looked at, and fifty new
sticks and umbrellas.
While he lived in Brighton he drove

was attacked for tha third time by the rev
olutionists, v
Last Wednesday the gunboat Boyaca,
which waa recently captured from the gov
ernment by the rebels, was seen towing two
sailing vessels full of soldiers. Some be
lieve that General Bertl baa forced bis way
out of Agua Dulce and that the liberals will
try to prevent his reaching Panama by cut

- The entire party, which embodied Becre-. ,
tary Cortelyou, aecret service men and a

streets being lined with the people from
western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio and
West Virginia. At the hotel the chief ex
ecutive met a delegation of prominent cit
izens of Wheeling, Introduced by Senator
Nathan Payshott .
President Roosevelt seemed In a very
Jovial humor and Joked with his newly
made acqualntancea. Ha addressed aa
enormous crowd from the balcony of tha
hotel standing at the northwest corner,
where he had a range of four different
atatea.
Speaks Beyond Scheduled Tim.
He spoke long beyond bis scheduled time,
which necessitated th curtailment or tba
regular program.
Th president spoke aa follows: .
My friends and fellow dtlsens: It Is a
pleasure to come to your city. I wish to
thank the mayor, and. through the mayor,
ail of your citizens, for the way in which,
upon your behalf, he isa greeted me; and
1 w4sh to state that It Is a special pleasure
to be Introduced by my friend. Senator
Bcott, because when he gives you his word
you don't have to think about It again,
(Applause.)
lam glad to have the chano of saying
a few words here In this great Industrial
center. In one of these cities which hue
felt to a notable degree the effect of tha
great period of prosperity through which
we are now passing. Probably never be
fore in our history haa the country been
more prospeious than it I at this mo
ment, and It Is a prosperity which has coma
alike to the tillers of the soil snd to thoae
connected with our great Industrial enter
prises. Good and Bad la Prosperity.
Now, gentlemen, every period baa Ita -trouble
and difficulties. A period of ad
versity, of loume, troubles us all, but
there are troubles in connection with tbo
period of prosperity also. When all things
flourish it .neans that there la a good,
chance for things that we do not like to
have flourish, lust exactly aa there Is for
things that we do like to have flourish; anl
a period of great national material well
being Is unavoidable, one In which human
minds are turned to the way In which
those Interested In th management of the
gigantic capitalistic corporations, whose
growth has been so noted for a period cf
the past half century, flourish.
We have grown to apeak of certain cor
porations rather loosely a trusts. Using
the word In Its common significance of a
big corporation, usually doing buslnesa In
several state at least, belde the state In
which it is incorporated. It seems to me
that in this question of dealing with the
trust (perhaps It would be more proper
to call it a group of problems), we have
to class all of our fellow citizens.
One la composed of those men who refuse
to admit that there is any action neces
sary at ail. The other is composed of
those men who advocate some noneffective
action, or If effective would be effective
only by destroying everything good and
bad connected with our Industrial devel
opment. In every governmental process
the aim that a people capable of elf-government
should steadfastly keep In mind, la
to proceed by evolution rather than by
revolution. (Applause.)
Change Follows Chaaged Condition.
On the other hand, every people that ha
aelf-government must beware of this fos
siilzation of mind which refuses to sllow
of any change as conditions change. Now,
In dealing with the problem of a change
In our great Industrial civilization, dealing
with tne tendency which haa been ac
centuated to an extraordinary degree by
steam and electricity and by the tr
mendoua upbuilding of Industrial enter
prise, dealing with these problem, I
think we muni aet before ourselves a de
sire not to accept !-ss than the poaalble,
and at the aame time not to bring our
selves to accept a standstill by demanding
the Impossible.
No one can dam the Mississippi. If th
nation started to dam It, lis time would
be wasted. It would not hurt the Mis
sissippi, It would only damage the popula
tion along the bank. You cannot dam the
current, but you can build levee and keep
the current within bounds and shape Its
direction.
Now. I think that Is exactly what we can
do with these great corporations, known
a trusts.
t'sssst Reverse Teadeaelea.
We cannot dam them; we cannot re
verse the industrial tendencies of th usa.
If you suceed In doing it, Chen the cities
like Wheeling will bav to ao out of bosl-
