There is earnest dls »«it from this conclusion on the art of a minority. <>n ose point the faculty of the college arc unani aious in their desire to reverse what has lj«-u for tean> accepted as the policy of th- university. In the annual report for I<*C Cjage rj it was stated to be settled policy at Columbia that "Columbia College shall offer but a single degree, that of bachelor of arts, and that that decree shall repre sent the *-lements of a liberal education a? It Is waived and deflr.ed by the faculty of Columbia. College." The faculty re now prepared, without dissent, to tram* or,e or more currieulums that shall give the tti>c>r.ts who follow them a reneral education '4*B>-f; on the study of the natural sciences, and to iSer to such students the degree of bachelor of «i»-noe. TheF*- students would not be required to !■« - Lstln for adesission or to pursue the stud" of l*tin in college. Should the policy thus indicated flaaliy I* adopted. Columbia College will In future wafer two degrees, bachelor of arts and bachelor rf fcirnce. instead of one.

If prescribed for the first, but not 'or Mm ascend By a decisive vote, the faculty de •llr;*^ to recommend that the degree of bachelor of arts be conferred upon students who h« c not studiM I<etin.

This degree is at present given by us as a technical cr professional degree ot.ly. and the '■erne of the curriculum for which It Is granted ap pears on the diploma. At present we create bach •lors of science In chemistry. In architecture and in education- The confusion and misapprehension that will certainly follow from the use of the same designation to mark the completion of a general •nd of a professional curriculum suggest the de tiraWHtv of having th« Questions involved laid before the university council In the near future, In rjflei that the trustees may have an authoritative *zrr»s»ion M the views of the representatives of the tearht»x staff.

E. Schermerhorn Says His Son Operated Speeding "Auto." [*MS. Mass.. Oct. 3.— J. E. Schermerhorn. of New-York, declared this afternoon that his son. Amos C. •Sehermerhorr. was the driver of the aulomoLlle of Hugh Curacy, third secretary of the British Embassy, on September '27,, when Mr. Gurney is charged with violating ihe Stock bridge speed ordinance. 51 Bcnennerborn gave out the information to-day in recognition, at It said, of the gallantry of Secretary Gurney in accepting the entire re sponsibility in the matter. His two sons, he said, both of whom are familiar with auto mobiles, were being entertained by Mr Gurney, who personally does not care for fast driving, but was permitting the bojs to test his rna chint. Ac they were rolling along the highway at good ap>sed about half a mile from Btocknrtd«e, an officer stopped them with the information that they were breaking the speed statute. He asked «ho the owner was. and Mr. Gurney re plied that he was. The officer said i? wdulrl be i"r» s mry for them to proceed to 'Stocl-ibrids I*.1 *. and Mr. Gurney invited him to ride along with them «.-ii ihe way to town the officer, who was Dep uty Shr: itf Noble, pulled out hie Cvatch and Bald that the) were again going faster than the law allowed.

Rgai Schermerhorn. jr.. when 'seen last night in fin- i-ity, said that he was glad To relieve Mr. i ; .i n»-\ from hi* emtmrraKsing position. Ho ■aid that i!r. Gurney had taken the responsibility solely out of a desire to shield Amos Sc-hermerhorn. and that if !t had not been for the tact that his brother and himself ha 1 returned to New-York the day after the arrest they would certalnlv have cleared up the matter and made public the fact that it was Amos Srhermerhorn who was drlvinc the marri.no. •■Mr. Gurney." he said, "did something which While v»ry friendly to us. put him in an embarrass ing position, and ! welcome the chance . «et him right l*efor* the public. 11 m - ADEE WANTS DETAILED STATEMENT.

Tennis, a Chicago merchant, who ha» made fifty-eight business trips to Europe In the last twenty years, is. a guest at the Holland House Speaking of the conditions of trade, he said: "It was the expectation of our house that busi ness would be curtailed to gome degree on account of the campaign, but we have been moat agree ably disappointed, and have had the best season In over twenty yean It is notable in this connec tion that the taste of the Western trade has great • y Improved in the last ten years, and this fact, taken with the generally prosperous condition of the people, has made the demand for only the best In our line that New-York and the European mar ket hag to off*-!-. The time is past." said Mr. Ten nis. "When Individual capital in the Jobbing trade can meet the requirements of expanding business and the changed conditions thai have come about in recent years. The Jobber formerly supplied the little merchants everywhere, while now he gets his orders from the large department or general mores, and to appeal to them he must have ample capital, such only a.- a corporation can afford. And more and more as jobbe.s w«? are direct Importers of the good* demanded In the Weft. Twenty years ago we bought in New-York, or. when abroad. In Nottingham. London and Parts. We no longer rind it to our advantage to visit London, but go to the little factories In th.- Industrial villages of nearly all the. Continental countries." "Private" John Allen, ex-Congressman from Mississippi, was at the Waldorf one evening re cently, and some allusion to bis Washington career provoked a personal recital of one of hi* expe riences. "It was." said Mr. Allen, "during the early part of my first term. 1 was deeply imbued with my responsibility to my constituent? and the necessity for ore economical administration of the affair* of the government We li < I Just re turned from the funeral of a Western Congress*; man, which rest about 111.000, and i saw my op portunity to advocate retrenchment.

A season of comic operetta, t.f the ptili.**.- k.'.nd, clean In plot and l*h«:ua»i. n«-a» i»r.d. winnJug ia music (though of rather a hcpel<-s.*ly Royal Acad emy, mid-eighteenth century, Balf -Wi ■ Men delssohn sort), which is expected to endure for two months, or thereabouts, was begun at the Broad way Theatre last night. The occasion was pri marily the first appearance in operetta in Kew- York of Mme. Schumann-Heink: secondarily, of. the production of a realty ingratiating, if not ex citing, piece by Stance and Edwards entitled "Love's Lottery." For the serious levers of music the Interest lay in th<- paradox presented by the mixing up of Mm« Sohumann-Hrinli and operatta: that i.-. a slaser who has won her finest and best deserved esses in Wag iirrnin tragedy, and un entertainment which a frivolous and depraved popular taste has put on a plane which promises great financial profit, and therefore has proved so alluring that an artist of the largest gifts has chosen to sacrifice present po sition and future hopes to its rewards. There were, probably, idealists in last night's audience Win looked upon th*> spectacle with honest grief, and they deserve a word, if nothing more, of passing pity and commiseration. But for them there ought to be some comfort In the fact that for the artist the descent was not difficult. For it the ways had been greased by years of unthinking adulation and financial reward contributed by the very people who had generous representation in the audience. Mm**. Bchamaaan-Ueliik's popularity began year* ago to work injury to her art, and she has not hesitated to court popularity and Its eai:is at the expense of her artistic virtues. There Is. therefore, no need of an expression of surprise at the ste;» she hys now taken. Both she and her admirers had promise and warning of its consequences. The operetta was graciously received throughout the evening; Mm*. Schumann- Heink with delight — unhappily for both, the entertainment which she provided seemed most enjoyable to the audience when it was most deplorable from an artistic point of view— thai Is. when sh» whs burles quing i-r own shortcomings*. Knowing that she could not pronounce the English tongue, she Invited a laugh by the catch phrase: -is my Aengllah goof?" and made of ii tlie speech with which she acknowledged the plaudits of her friends after the first set. Knowing that she could neither look nor act lithesome- and blithesome, she burlesqued both moods, and took bet reward from the laughter which followed. It was an amia ble intimacy between herself and th? audi ence which resulted, and. consequently, every thing: which happened while she was on the Stag« appeared infinitely amrstng to the on lookers—nothing more so than the misbehavior of the curtain. Even the plenitude and downward amplitude of her glorious voice were turned to a ludicrous use In a cadenza which Mr. Kdwards oh viously wrote for the purpose of exploiting her ex traordinary powers. Here, as on other occasions. it might be said that Mn>e. Schumann-Heink. by her performance. wan not so much lowering her own sphere of art as l^Nmrhim, that of the libret tist and composer. •'Love's Lottery** is a gracious little work, espe cially in its music, which the authors seem to have kepi on a plane of artistic respectability and probity out of reaped for the artist for whom It was constructed. The music barks buck to the middle of the last century, but it is gracefully melodious and free from vulgarisms of every •or' Its » ff. ■ t would perhaps bp more iini^on stralne.l had there been no effort to lift the dramatically subordinate j^irr created for Mm.'. S-humann-Hf ink Into prominence las In the polacca near the end of th* first act), but always it Is found, sweet and sincere English music, which deserves well of unspoiled music lovers. And it is all well rung, as the play Is all well arted. especial prai<<» leiriß due to Louise Gunning, Wallace Brown low (who stirred the audience profoundly with a pa triotic songt. and Oeorg4 I.

I.»w Doekstader'a annual .Broadway engagement was begun but night at the Herald Square Theatre, before a SarK« audience ihat was appreciative of the. many (honest!) new jests and amiably tolerant of the old. Mr. I)oeksta<Jer himself, of course, has suffered no change. He Is still the •me comical coor. for the first five minutes that he occupies the stage, and the same monologist with burnt cork, on his face for the rest of the time. His company, too, contains th» familiar list of name* — I'arro!!. Johnson. Neil O'Brien, William McDonald, Manuel Romaln, and the rest. Nor does the entertainment d!ffi*r In kind— a half hour of th- minstrel circle, ending in a tableau; a descent of Dockstader from his airship to give a talk on politics; a slapstick far^e, and several "scenic specialties" of more or l"s* pretentiousness and no artistic merit. In all this th-re Is much that will amu.-e. but only Nell O'Brien Is likely to take the memory back to the dayi when minstrel shows had a real chocolate flavor, for he alone Is ■••:>- a darky. Tile rest of the players talk Indiscriminately Irish. Low fierrrmn ana Temierioin. The farce was his par ticular part of the entertainment, and as the con ductor of a streetcar he might have figured In th« never-to-be-too-much-envilated i leal of the Metro politan staff.

[FROM TUB Tillßl NE DCRCaC.I Washington. Oct. I— Under the personal super vision of Charles Frohman. assisted by his entire New-York staff. g«rdOO'a play, "The Sorceress." was presented to an American audience this even- Ing for the first time. Mrs. Patrick Campbell ap pearing in the principal role. To-night's perform ance was not only th© first presentation of "The Sorceress 1 " In America, but the first of the Kngllsh version on any stage. The prospect Of seeing Mr*. Campbell In an English version of the role, which in the original had won for Sarah Bernhardt one Of her most notable triumphs, drew a large and appreciative audience, which did not fall to mani fest its cordial appreciation not only of Mm Camp be!!'» acting, but of the whole production, which Mr. Frohman has staged with a lavish hand. The period of the play, th* early part of the sixteenth century, r-ffords ample opportunity for brilliant scenery and costumes, which Mr. Frohman has not failed to improve, all the architecture and cos tumes having been designed In Spain on the ground where the occurrences portrayed are supposed to have taken place. The play Is full of dramatic incidents and effec tive tableaux, and affords abundant Opportunities to the excellent company which Mr. Frohman has selected to support Mrs. Campbell. The play por trays the period when, the Moors having been gen erally driven from Spain, those who remained are compelled to profess the Catholic religion to . » cape suspicion of treason Zoraya (Mrs. »'ampbell> la the daughter of a Moorish physician. She poe s~s.«en considerable knowledge of medicine. The charm she exerts on men is attributed to sorcery and aba is taken before the Inquisition on that charge. Effort* to compel her to confess by tor ture are dramatically portrayed, but h« secures her pardon by effecting the cure of J ana, daugh ter of the Governor. Joans turns out to be the affianced bride of Don Enrique, Zoraya's lover. The rabble Is willing tc be cheated of its prey by lbs pardoning of Zoruya and attempts to burn her at the stake, but she. with the help of Don Enrique, poisons herself. He takes a portion of the poison, and the lovers ale together on the cathadral steps.
