■t mtm THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, WEDNESDAY. APRIL 23, 10lf!. BILL TO-NIGHT; Explains Details of Effect on Country- Continue Five Revision and —Debate to Days. W ASHINGTON, April 23.-Demo- , tic Leader Underwood opened -iriff debate in the* House to-day ith a comprehensive statement of the details of the new bill and an nalysis of its effect-on fhe indus tries of the country. Underwood spoke extemporaneous ly. now and then referring to the tariff handbook and at other times to the Ways and Means Committee’s report. His remarks w’ere construed as the “keynote” speech of the de bate, which, by agreement, is to*last five legislative days, with .night ses sions. Mr. Underwood declared the time had come to remove protection from profits and put American business on a competitive basis. It was un- American, he thought, to put a pre mium on business inefficiency. Progressive Leader Murdock was busy to-day on his tariff report, which will be presented to the House. The Finance Committee of the Senate had conferences to-day with those Senators who are opposing putting sugar and wool on the free list. * Progressives Speak. Before Underwood began his speech he obtained the consent of the House to an agreement whereby general de bate on the tariff bill will close at whatever time the House closes on Monday. The Republicans will yield six hours i Progressive Leader Murdock to dispose of as he sees fit. “The Payne bill had hardly been enacted into kiw before the men who frrmed it began apologizing for It,” -..id Underwood. “They recognized themselves that it was not satisfac tory to the American people.

Underwood admitted that there has been a world-wide increase in the - ost of living, but he contended that <t has been much larger in the United States than in countries where tariff rates are not so high. “Prices will r.ot be reduced until merchants have disposed of the stock of goods which they bought under a high protective system and they will not reduce these prices until they are forced to.” Says Cotton Mills Must Cut Wages. BOSTON. April 23.—Edwin Farn- ham Greene, treasurer of the Pacific Mills of Lawrence and president of the National Association of Cotton Manufacturers, speaking at the open ing of the annual convention of the association here to-day, declared that the only chance for the cotton indus try to meet foreign competition is by a reduction in the w r ages of the oper atives. President Greene declared that the industry Is facing a crisis as the re sult of tariff legislation at Washing ton. Hempel Scores Remarkable Tri umph on First Appearance Be fore an Atlanta Audience. Atlanta operagoeis who have grumbled for three seasons because only Italian. French and German have been sung will have opportunity to night to learn whether opera in Eng lish really is preferable. The Metropolitan company is to sing in English for the first time in Atlanta, and a work given Its pre miere in New York only a few weeks ago will be the offering. This is “Cyrano.” written about ten years ago by Walter Damrosch, of New York, but not given a performance until last February. It has been sung by the Metropolitan but five times. The opera ia novel, too, in that its title is given the baritone. Paseuale Amato, who was accorded a veritable ovation in his “Traviata” role yester day afternoon, will b^ the Cyrano to night. Riccardo Martin, the Ameri can tenor, who has been among tho Atlanta favorites since the first con cert season five years ago. will be the Christian. The Roxane will be Madame Frances Alda, the beautiful Australian and the wife of General Manager Gatti-Casazza. It was Alda who sang Desdemona to Slesak’s Othello so well two seasons ago. Hertz to Conduct To-night. Alfred Hertz, the jovial old Ger man conductor, has arrived especially to direct the music of “Cyrano.” Put nam Griswold, who sings but a few bars in the whole Atlanta week, came with him. and will be the De Guich^. Albert Reiss, the little tenor comedia a, will have the best role he has ever sung in Atlanta as Ragueneau, the poetic pastry cook. Basil Ruysdae’. the handsome basso, whose name is Dutch, though he is American born, is another late arrival for the “Cyrano" performance. The opera follows closely, until the finale, the Rostand play whic h caused such a furore about twelve years ago, and in which Coquelin in France and Mansfield in the United States made such great dramatic successes’. Th* music is said to be excellent, running the gamut from the frivoldus comedy of Ragueneau to the solemn and weirdly beautiful death song of Cy rano as the curtain falls. The book is by W. F. Hepderson, one of the lead ing* musical critics and writers of New York, and adheres as closely to the Rostand lines as Is possible in a really “singable" libretto. Ponchielli’s “Gioconda,” with Des- tinn, Caruso, Gilly and Homer, w ill be the bill to-morrow' afternoon. There will be no night performance to-mor row. Third Presentation of “Cyrano.” “Cyrano,” which will be presented in the Auditorium to-night by the Metropolitan company, is regarded by many of the critics as the production to meet the cry for a new and thor oughly worthy American opera. That the music for the opera was written a dozen years ago by Walter Damrosch does not in the least de stroy its characteristic, of newness, for it received its first presentation only last February, when it was staged in New York. It was given a second time in the metropolis and to night it will have, its third presenta tion.

It is pronounced admir able in structure and versification and in its picturesque English Work Is M eluaious. Mr. Damrosch says of his own work*: “It is not a music drama; it is an opera. I have- gone to older models than Wagner. The scoring is light; the work is melodious. There are set arias and the singers have as much melody to sing as the orchestra.” A pleasing scenic effect fn the first act is the reproduction of a tiny thea ter in the Hotel de Bourgogne in 1640. Soon after the arrival of the minia ture theater’s* audience of cavaliers, burghers, lackeys, pages and fiddlers, the violinists play an overture which Damrosch describes as based on the style of Lully. It is a most delightful and delicate bit of instrumentation.

There's Signor Antonio Scotti Why can't we all make diadems out of our mere straw hats, and sceptets out. of our cause, and play the Prince Charm ing to the utter rout of maiden even’where? Because, most likely, we are not Antonio Scotti. Style and savoir-faire seemed to radiate from the stalwart, erect figure that made its way leisurely along downtown Peachtree to-day. Military precision was there, hnd yet a natural grace that made it plain that the dig nity was innate and not .artificial. A tailor, measuring a customer, glanced out into the street ana saw the figure pass his shop door. He rushed to the door and gazed at the tight coat, the square shoulders, the ultra-correct trousers, with eyes of artistic appreciation. Then he wont back and changed a few entries on hi? customer's order blank. An automobile sped along the street with a long-drawn blast of a siren whistle. Four girls saw the stalwart figure. "Gee. It’s Scotti!” “Ou-u-u-u-u.” Four blended gasps echoed the siren and resounded above it. The automobile slowed and turned. “It’.- Scotti,” said the girl at the wheel, whispering, awe-struck. Scotti sauntered leisurely. Get the Scotti saunter. It has Douglas Fair banks, John Drew and every other idol overshadowed. Not even a mov ing picture man has anything like it. Atlanta maidens have spoken. Shoulders immovable. Arms swing in an arc ol four and three-quarters inches. Head five degrees* to tin* right. Toes out. Lord help the Atlanta man with the pigeon toes Scotti throws his feet out. But back to the story of how four tender hearts went fluttering, ro mance-winged, out into a dream world. And not only four The automobile crawled slowly along Peachtree, rn the wake of the sauntering Scotti. Oblivious to traf fic dangers, pedestrians, shop win dows, everything, four pairs of eyas stared. Four girls talked in whispers “Did you see him at the Auditorium yesterday afternoon, walking eroiind the boxes? I think he Is the gran-n-ndest thing. Look at thar little cane hooked over his arm. Isn’t that the cutest thing? Watch him walk. Ou-u-u-u.” Then the four rapt maidens saw the luckiest women in the worid. \ handsome automobile swept by. it* occupant, a woman, gowned and glo-I pious, also saw the superb Scotti. She spoke to her chauffeur, and th automobile stopped at the curb. The great man smiled, and raiser’ his hat.

And then a firm, unmoving j grip for three seconds, exactly, and, a convulsive quiver, lasting-while you I count one, rapidly. The maidens sighed in * horns.
