By E. de S. MELCHER. Washington witnessed its second out- door opera spectacle last night, and possibly 1ts last. Maestro Salmaggi, veteran open-air impressario, Wwhose “Aida’s” and suchlike have played in ball parks from Montreal to Mexico, announced last night after “Il Trova- | tore,” that it was unlikely he would | try such a venture in this city again. Pointing to the still faintly lightning and thundering skies, Maestro Sal- whose two operatic ventures elements, said “No more operas here— ah no—how can I?" and he motioned to a moist-looking violin which lay on the ground, a hooded harp and other freed from the worry of mob scenes, camels and pyramids, seemed more e!- fectire than they had been in “Aida Mme.

Judge Hitt ruled the ques- tion out. Previously the judge, acting upon the request of Assistant Corporation Coun- sel Edward M. Welliver, had dismissed a disorderly conduct charge against David Budd and a charge of making a speech without a permit against Sylves- ter McKinney. However, both men re- | mained on trial on charges of parading After 20 Government witnesses and a number for the defense had been heard by Police Court Judge Isaac R. Hitt. the trial of the eight radical bonus march- ers arrested when they attempted to picket the White House July 25, drew near a close this afternoon. John T. Pace, Detroit, leader of the “left wing” of the bonus army, denied on the witness stand that he and his men were “parading” when their march to the White House was interrupted by police. He said he told the men before they left their billets at Twelfth and B streets southwest, that they had been refused a permit to parade, but that if | they wanted to they could proceed indi- vidually to the Executive Mansion. Blames Police Action. Pace charged that police made the contemplated demonstration appear to be a parade when they surrounded the men and forced them to proceed on certain routes. Any disorder that may have occurred he charged to the offi- | cers, stating that at one time he begged | a policeman not to throw a tear gas | | | Remember, we are open all day on Saturday Here Are Some of the Many pecials Which Clearance Has Occasioned Big Underwear Specials Mode Madras Athletic Union Suits Were $1 and $1.50 3 for égc $1.75 ode Fancy Shorts Were 50c and 75¢ 35C 3 for $1.00 Mode Ribbed and Plain Lisle Athletic Undershirts Were 75¢ 35c All Stif f Straw Hats Henry Heath, Finchley and Mode Were $3 10 §6 $1.39 All Ecuadorian Panamas Were $5 to $10 $2.95 d 3 for $1.00 without a permit Feels Irish “Disgraced.” Comedy relief was furnished when Policeman W.
