tion for a permanent receivership for

Times, to an offer releasing his bold

offex cams aa ths result of a long ser

meeting of three hours duration In Mr.
Schwab's office. It was, however, not
accepted, nor did the condition under
which it; was discussed later by Wil

a definite proposition for the reor

"The conference it is understood, had
to .do with a tontoUvs plan by which tbe
second mortgage bonds to the extent
of I10,o4e,m which Mr. Schwab holds
as the purchase price of his Bethlehem
properties and the I18.OO0.M0 of general
first mortgage bonds on the entire ship
building company, would be placed on
an equal footing.. This, it is under

holders backing the Conkllng suit who

Schwab's bonds are a" first -mortgage

GREAT NOVELIST SUFFERS
FROM GENERAL BREAKDOWN
Hall Caine. Author of "The Christian,"
and Other Famous DooKs, Leaves
London for His Health. '.
London, Jan. 20. Hall Calne, the
eminent novelist who Is suffering from
a general breakdown, left today for St
Moritx. He goes at the orders of bis
attending physician. Caine Is perhaps
the' most characteristic writer' Of the
day. While there Is a distinct lack of
humor In his work, he nevertheless pos
senses a style of diction that appeals,
strongtly to the great mass of readers.
He handles his subjects with a strength
and directness, albeit in ' a somewhat
sombre manner, that places him in the
front rank of novel writers. ; His re
markable facial resemblance to Shakes
peare has often been commented upon.
Unremitting work and deep literary re
search are thought to be the cause of
his present illness. k
WHAT WILL BE REQUIRED :
OF THE CHICAGO THEATERS
Chicago, Jan. 20. Nearly two
months of work and 8500,000 expendi
ture for repairs will ba required, un
der the new theater building ordln-j
ance for the opening of the Chicago
playhouses. Thts is , the estimate It
theater managers and It doea not In
clude the amount which will be ex-,
pended tor the' entire rebuilding of at
least one theater.
, Three theaters are closed already and
five others have almost admitted that
they would be forced to suspend. The
number which will not be able to open
has been estimated at one' half to, six
sevenths. -. There, are. -. few theaters
which will be able to use mors than
two floors for many months, and many,
even of the, best, may abandon the gal
lery permanently; The price of theater
tickets Is almost certain to be Increased
It Is said that 82 and 82.60 as a stand
ard price for seats Is likely to be ad
vocated by the managers and that the
low priced houses will make corres
ponding Increases. -,;
