"WITniN THE LAAV."
One of the genuine treats of the
local theatrical season is foreshadow
ed in the announcement that "With
in the Law," Bayard Velller's ab
sorbing new play of modern Ameri
can life which is the dramatic sensa
tion of the year in New York and
Chicago, is to bo presented by the
American Play Co. at the Lyric on
Monday, August 2o.
This deservedly successful drama.
which has been critically commended
as possessing the most engrossing
human interest story given the stage
in a decade, has for its central
character, a pretty and quick-witted
young woman who is falsely accused
and wrongfully convicted of stealing
from her employer. She serves
three years in prison, comes out de
termined to "go straight," is be
trayed time and time again by the po
lice, and finally is forced to abandon
the effort to honestly earn a liveli
hood and live by her wits.
She prospers by the use of many
Ingenious devices, outswindles
swindlers, conducts a blackmailing
operation on perfectly legal lines,
fortifies herself against police inter
ference by effective lawful defence
and, In short, preys upon society at
will as a law-breaker but remains
herself always "within the law." At
last she revenges herself upon the
man who sent her unjustly to prison
by luring ins son into marriage.
And then, of course, she falls in love
with him.
"Within the Law" employs the
services of one of the most careful
ly selected and evenly balanced act
ing organizations gathered in many
seasons and the elaborate scenic pro
duction provided by the American
Play Company, producers of the play.

Harvey Martin, son of Mr. and
Mrs. O. R. Martin, has secured a pos

Is on the job.
Mr. and Mrs. Jos. R. Hause, In
company with Mrs. Sarah Burrus and
Isaac Barnes of South Sterling, are
arranging to visit the Melvln Barnes
to retreat from its present policy with
out (humor of humiliation to itself. Is
the belief of men high In the eou
lldence of the administration.
The statement is unqualifiedly made
that at some period of the Interview
iK'tween President Huertu and John
Mini, personal representative of Presi
dent Wilson, which was held in Mexico
City, the offer of mediation in Mexico
was courteously but ilrnily refused.
Owing to delays in tho transmission
of ollk'iul news from Mexico, the au
thorities are not clear at this time
whether or not President Huerta at
a inter interview indicated to Mr. Llnd
a moro cordial feeling. It was staled
here on excellent authority that this
government will await complete ad
vices from Mexico before taking any
further steps and that tho question
of making public the original instruc
tions given to Mr. Llnd will be de
termined at that time also.
Memlwrs of congress of wide ex
perience in such matters as the Mexi
can situation privately asserted that,
In their opinion, President Huerta had
destroyed tho value of tho Lind mis
sion In ills original ultimatum as to
tho undesirnbility of Mr. Llnd's pres
ence In Mexico.
Foreign Advice to Huerta.
It is stated on the same authority
that foreign ixnvors undoubtedly per
suaded President Huerta to receive
Mr. Lind nnd President Wilson's mes
sage, but that they did not attempt
to swerve the original judgment of Hie
Mexican president as announced be
fore Mr. Llnd's arrival.
The mistake in the policy of the ad
ministration, as they see it, lay in the
fact that at Uio time tho original crisis
arrived this government had no defi
nite policy, and wns therefore unable
to take tho initiative before other
governments actually recognized the
Huerta government. This situation, it
Is now said, has placed tho administra
tion at n disadvantage in future nego
tiations. If there are to bo any.
It is stated that the reception ac
corded Mr. Lind by President Huerta
was the acme of courtesy Itself. Presi
dent Hnertn is declared to have ex
pressed his entire confidence in the
good faith of tho American govern
ment and in Mr. Llnd personally, but
there exists excellent reasons for stat
ing that President nuorta was none
the less explicit in his refusal of all
offers of mediation.
In fact, it is declared here In some
quarters that his attitude was known
in administration circles nnd that he
acceded to tho request to receive Mr.
Lind personally only as an act of en
tire courtesy to the government.
Uutlmatum Story Denied.
An absolute denial, authorized by
Provisional President Huerta of Mex
ico, of tho report that Mexico has de
livered nn ultimatum to the United
Stntes demanding recognition wns
made public at the White House yes
terday. Tho denial was immediately
telephoned to Secretary Bryan at his
home. It served to relieve the tension
under which tho lenders of tho admin
istratlon wore laboring ns a result of
earlier advices which apparently made
it platu that the policy of tho adminis
tration with respect to Mexico had
been defeated and that serious conse
quences were in sight.
