statements therefore, have appeared several
publications.
1t is not true that the work of the new theatre now
going up Broadway and Thirteenth street has at any
time slackened its progress From the day the FIRST
spade put into the ground ii has advanced with all
the rapdty possible and consistent with its profound
6oidity and safety.

am sure these mistakes have not been published
from any but friendly motives towards me- and notice
them merely that those OF the public aud pross who may
kindly feel an interest in my bold and anxious under
