When Mr. 1'"rob roan returned from Europe two months ago Mr. Hayman Immediately sailed for the other side to complete a number of negotia- tions for players and plays tentatively en- tered Into In England and on tho .Continent by Mr. Frotiman. . The most Important of Mr. Hayman'* achievements on the other side were the final completion of all arrangements for Madame Naziroovn's repertoire tour around the world, and the addition of at least half a dozen new manuscripts to the FrOhmnn budget of plays for tbe season. On reaching the Cnnnrd Dock Mr. Hayman said: "Just before I left London we started the rehearsals of J. M. Barrle's new play, "The Legend of Leonora,' at the Duke of York's Theatre. Mr> Barrle's newest work will be done with his shorter fifty-minute playlet, called 'The Will.' It was arranged that early la October another J. M. Barrle fifty- minute play, 'Half An Hour,' will be acted In London by Irene Vanbrugh. In New York we shall give this play to Blanche Bates, and so arrange things that she shall be able to appear In 'Half An Hoar' one night before its London production, so as to be tbe first to create the part on the English speaking stage. "With Ethel Irving In tbe chief part, we now have in rehearsal at tbe Olobe Theatre Tears of Discretion.' We secured the Lon- don rights of this play from David Belasco. "Within ten days of tbe London production of 'Years of Discretion,' another American play, "The Conspiracy'—certainly the tenth or fifteenth American-made play that London has Been this season—will be produced at the Comedy Theatre. John Emerson, one of Mr. Frohman's stage directors, is in charge of the rehearsals, and has rounded out his work so well that be will shortly be able to re- turn to America for his performance in 'The Conspiracy' in this country. Marie Doro has been specially engaged to create the leading part in 'The Conspiracy' at the Comedy The- atre, London, ana she will remain In tho cast until tbe beginning of her starring en- gagement over here in a new play. "I am bringing over with me the drama- tization of Elizabeth Robins' remarkable novel, 'My Little Sister/ I also have the . completed manuscript of Mr. Maugham's new play, 'The Land of Promise,' which will bo Miss Blllte Burke's vehicle this season, after her preliminary tour in "The Amazons.' My luggage, also includes the model for 'The Land of Promise,' aa well as the models for John Galsworthy's four act drama, 'The Mob,' which will have its first performance In New York. "Just before I went on shipboard Sir James M. Barrle gave me a personal message for Maude Adams. He wished me to tell Miss Adams tbat be hopes and believes that he will attend her performance of 'Peter Pan' nnd her rehearsals of bis new play at the Empire Theatre during the holiday sea- son, so that It really does look as If New York will finally have Its glimpse of 'Sir I'etcr Pan Barrle,' as they now call Mm on the other side. "C. Haddon Chambers completed arrange- ments with me for his departure from Lon- don for Now York on Aug. 15. which will bring htm bore In ample season for the re- hearsal of his new play for Ethel Hnrry- niore, called 'Tpnte.'' From Alfred Sutro I "ring the manuscript of a new play which will bo produced next Winter at the St. James Theatre, London, and In a New York theatre next Spring. "The engagements tbat chiefly occupied wo In London were for the purpose of se- curing a number of musical comedy people, some from the Gaiety Theatre, for Mr. Froh- man's American production of 'The Oirl on the Film' and others, who came over on the Vaurefania with me, to be added to Donald ..tBi? company f or "rh e Marriage Market.'
