"Kidnapped In New York."
Barney Ollmore, the well known char
acter actor and comedian, Is announced

"St. Ann" nt the Lyceum.
At the T-A'ccum Thursday night a new
comedy drama, "St. Ann," will he pre
sented. The play Is f'om the pen of
Paul Armstrong and was tlrst produced
In Washington on Lnbor Day. The dally
press speak of It In Ihe highest terms,
ns do also the leading dinmntlc papers,
the Mirror and the News. Concerning the
play nnd tho uulhor,.lhe Baltimore Amei
Ican savs:
"Originality chaiactcrlzes 'St. Ann'
fiom beginning to end. Paul Armstrong
himself designed the scene and color
schemes, which nro unique as they aio
artistic. He had submitted the play to
n number of New York mnnngers only
to have It hlghlj praised and then re
jected only on the grounds that It was
cheaper to Import foreign successes than
to experiment with American plays, no
matter how meritorious they might seem.
At last the voting author became dis
couraged and concluded to pioduce the
piece himself. Klike La Shelle had made
him a large offer for 'St. Ann,' but Arm
strong's faith In his own work caused
him to reject It. He accordingly arranged
to present the play under the business
direction of Barton Plttman, who was
formerly associated with Klikc La
Shelle." Scats on sale this morning nt 9
o'clock.

THE MARKETS
Wall Btreet Heyiew.
Now York, Sept, 15, Today's stock
market showed Itself very sensitive to
tho money situation and tho prlco move
ments throughout tho day wcra closely
related to the developments In tho money
matkot. The Aim opening in tho stock
market was obviously duo to tho hope
that tho monsuro of lellof announced by
tho secretary of the trensury would result
In forcing down tho into for call lonns.
The opening rate of 15 per cent, counter
acted this lnfluelicco nnd Induced a gen
el al spilling over of stork nil around tho
room. Money lenders le ported that tho
funds offered at 15 per cent, weie mostly
foi account of cut of town Institutions.
Several millions icportcd shipped from
Chicago on Saturday vveto presumably
Included In these funds. Meantime, the
local banks wcio holding for a M per
cent, late, which some of them not
Inter In the day when tho out of town
supply had been absorbed. The low prices
of the day In the stock matkot followed
closely upon the 20 per cent, rates for
money nnd tho Into casing In tho money
late resulted In a substantial tally, which
wiped out earlier lossei In a number of
Important stocks, but still left finctlonnl
net losses In the mnjoilty of cases. No
one Is heniil to espiess any apprehension
that theru Is danger of a money crisis In
commercial or ludustilnl affnlrs, but the
outlook fur speculative bonoweis for tho
pui pose of holding secuiltles on margin
is believed to be somewhat clouded. It Is
pointed out that tho ptesent nil esq for
funds centeiH vciy largely about the
Stock exchange nnd Is local to New York.
The plan of lellcf of the tic-usury de
paitment will be widely scattered In ie
spect to the Incicase of government In
tel est In advance nie not laigelv availed
of, even In poilods of actual stilngency.
The gcnoial opinion this evening was that
the best hope of Kllef for tho money
market lay In the piospects ot gold Im
ports. An upwuid movement In sugar
was a slightly sustaining Inlliience in
today's weak mniket. Totnl Bales today,
0)2, 700 shates Bonds moved nat lowly in
sympathy with stocks. Totnl sales, par
value, J.1 050,000 Government bonds weie
all unchanged ou the last call.
