STATEMENT BY WILLIAM C. KINGSLEY.

STATEMENT BY WILLIAM c. KINGSLEY.
William c. Kingsley stated that this thcater was
erected in 1870 by Kingsley, Keeney d McCue at q
cost of $lSO,000 The owners obtained an act of
incorporation as the Brooklyn Building Company,
but the three persons before mentioned owned all
the stock in the property except about 1000
This was divided among various persons in small
amounts of $500 and $1,000 each. Mr..
Kingsley added that the lot on which the
theater was built also is owned by the
same company. The building was total
loss. The property was insured for $40 900. the
risks being placed in various companies, only few
OF which were in Brooklyn. II was impossible to
give the names of the insurance companies until o
later hour, because he could not tell these facts
until after he had referred to his books. He had
not known for how much this property was insured
until he was told of the amount by his bOokkeeper.
1t was intended to give Brooklyn frst-ciass thea
ter in every respect, Mr. Kingsley continued, when
this building was erected. The walls were formed
of several courses OF brick, and on all sides were
raised 30 high as TO form q complete protection for
the theater in case any of the adjoining buildings
caught fire. 1t vas mainly on this account that the
fremen were enabled to oonfne the flames to the
theater building and the wooden and brick struot-
ure just below. The inner walls we're supported by
arches and columns. that no very large portion OF
