Richard Bennett Will Succeed William Insersoll — alls* Grace Scott May Be Leadlns Lady This Season-Scci is the Report from ' jfew; York. : "';■... j , ; : ;Manager ; ; Wells -'returned \ yesterday from New York.: whither he went to con sult, architects -- y in regard to the plans .for" tha;new, theatre which is to take the placo'of the Bijou. There is no longer any doubt that .the" new house will be erected. Mr. Wells stated to the Dis patch ; dramatic \ man -last night ; that ; not : only was 'the erection; of [ the 'new thea tre assured, but -that work upon; It would begin in time for it "tb^ bo completed by. I October 7th, upon which" date he has .-;: already-booked an: attraction- to open tho • new'" playhouse./ As to its 'location, Mr.; .Wells would'hot give the- least hint.; He i-would not even say on which side of 'Broad street - the house would be built. Indeed, he would not admit that Broad ! street was to be its location, though it .is'- fair to -presume that it is. The fact ■ that the location/of the proposed theatre I will net be given. out Is sufficient cvidenco that the \ deal for the purchase, of a lot ■ has not- : been closed. : Such being ' the ', case, one" can readily understand why it lis "not vase for the prospective pur chasers to talk in regard; to a location. 3 Mr. Wells stated that while the houso would, not be ; built upon art elaborate f scale, . it ' would be a .-■ , most ' substantial .building. '■ and pleasing to the eye. -'One should; look- farther i in the future than a ; few years, he saict, when a theatre .Is to j be erected. .From this it Is to be judged j that" the : house is; to be erected with a ..i view to meeting the needs -of j ßichmond '. in tlia years ; to ; come— a house of ; whicli ' no one iwould; have cause to be ashamed. Tho proposed thea tre will have a seating capacity, of about fifteen hundred :: There will.'be two galleries, both; of which will run the en tire length of the auditorium. { T NO SU3VLMER STOCK . COMPANY. ' j Mj.-. '■.-.Wells'; stated . that there would be no summer stock company: at the -Bijou. •notwithstanding the impression which ■had been made to that effect. The Percy Haswell Stock Company, he said, had en gaged ■'.: time for. three weeks— one at •Richmond 1 and". two at Norfolk. The idea that he was to form a stock company J himself was : entirely erroneous. It is safe to predict that .the Bijou will be converted into stores /..very"; soon after it is vacated by Mr. Wells^ this season. : 'Richmond ; theatre-goers ; r will be inte- . "rested in "■.learning";, that ;Mr. : .Giffen has engaged-Richard Bennett for his leading- j man. Mr. ; Giffen : had receh tly been nego^ » tiating. with thia end . in view, .but' thought ' ho had lost the' actor when | Charles Frohman loaned him to Rich & | Harris for -the. heavy in "Jim FJludsoe." : Mr. Bennett is under a three-years* con- ; tract with Charles Frohman: and he;ac-i capted the engagement with ; Mr. Giffeii upon.

I^VERPOOI* March 7.-Furthe r detaiy regarding the collision of the stea m « Harmonjdes -with', the "Waesland, ie whi e * the latter was sunk, have been learns* When the disaster occurred VTedneadai night, the two vessels wers tteamhi slowly, off the coast of the Istand o? Anglesey. The Harmonldes crashed taeaei on into the Waesland and backed awa? but once again struck the then sinking ship, making a great gap in her side,' Though the sea was perfectly smooth, the denseness ; of the fog added to tfis terrors; of the passengers of the Wa; s , land. The women rushed on deck scream. ing,- but were' soon reassured by th» officers- The boats were quickly lot< ered, but the operation resulted In tw( fatalities." The end of one of tae life. boats "slipped from its davit, and pre. cipitated the occupants of. the boat Jata the 'sea. A steerage passenger, Edward Dangerfleld,; of Kansas, struck his hea<J against the boat's fittings, and v;a3 In. stantly killed; and Elsie Emrnett, 12 yean old. ttio daughter of Rev. A. Emmeu, was drowned.' The other persona wha were in the boat were picßed up. V BURSTING OF BOILERS. "As the last boats were leaving tfc-> fasi sinking ship, whose decks wore alreadj awash, an explosion announced that he: JWUers had burst, and forty minutes ate the 'first impact, the Waeslanrt yv.e a mighty lurch and dii-tppeared beneath the waves, sinking- about midway between Holyhead and Tuskar Light. Nothing was saved except what . the passenger.* and crew; wore. The boats containing the passengers were for a. time separated. owing to the fog, but eventually they ail reached the sides of the Harmonic:?-. and the survivors were taken on b«7api that vessel, where everything:- possible was done for their comfort.'

We weris going very slowly, with no more speo-) than was necessary to keep headwai'. We were. struck at right angles, v tre mendous hole v.-us made. and. for a mo ment, the stem of the Harmonides *at literally ; inside our ship! C' RUSH OF.

Terror and bewilderment reiifn ed. for a ; few moments, but the passen gers gradually ranged themselves in gmup3 about the decks, where they wer« best sheltered, and ; the crew, worked li'cs clock-work in getting out the boats."' As the last boat wa3 leaving the ship'J side, cries for help were .heard on board of her, and the \ boat, re turned and found that two of the Waesland's crew had been left behind. .One of these men had slept throughout the time, from the first to past; to the last boat's leaving the sinking steamer^ and; only discovered his perl« lou3 position when the sea-water Hooded hia bunk through the port-holes.
