Mr.. FoRD's WASHINGTON THEATER.-The ru-
NOR that John 7. Ford had lost the National
Theater, Washington, Is mistake It is known
that John w. Albaugh and 8. NJ. Hickey have
been negotiating for It, but IL is with some fu.
ture views, as Fords lease does not run out for
another year. The whole trouble comes out OF
the rent. Ford finds that In paying $12, 600 for
the theater he works hard Just TO come out
even at the end OF the season, as there is no
business In Washington beyond six months In
the year. He has insisted on reduction OF the
rent, which the landlord feels diSnclined to
make. and therefore the opening OF negotia-
tions with Albaugh and Hickey. In case the
theatre goes out OF his hands Ford win build a
new one, as he cannot lose Washington from
his circuit. He acknowledges that another
tneater would be one too many.-[yep York
