A TIL. atrIcal Misunderstanding.

New YORK, Jan. 22-Theatrical circles are
much agtated over the publication OF certain
letters and dispatches from Dion Boucicault TO
Cbas. r. Thorne, Jr., now belonging to the
Union Square Company, written apparently
with the intention Of inducing Thorns IN break
his engagement and join Wallack's company.
Boucicaut argues that the engagement Of Chas
Coghan at the Union Square Theatre has re-
leased Thorne from his engagement and in
Inmates that he can procure Thorne an engage
ment ut either the Fifth Avenue or Wallack's
Theatre. Palmer, OF the Union Square ex-
presses much indignation at Boucicaulps in
terference. and denies that there was any inten-
ton OF break1pg Thorne,s engagement, 1t ap-
the Union Square Company, and will probably
remain with the company until the end OF bfs
engagement, which Is for three years.
