WOULD NOT Be BULLDOZED.
Manager Clunie Shows What Kind
Of Metal He is Made of.
Why ''Little Tippett'' Was Not Given
at the Metropolitan Theater
Last Evening.

Manager James II. Clunie proved to a
large number of people last night that he
has plenty of grit and backbone when the
occasion demands.
Little Tippett" was to have been
played for the second time by company
under the management of Duncan B.
Harrison. Harrison is the man who was
late manager for John l.. Sullivan and
on the conclusion of their partnership
proceeded to make himself ridiculous by
his childish talk about the pugilist
Harrison and his company were well
treated by the press here-fairly, decently
criticised. Harrison on the first night
began to complain about Manager Gu
nie's regular passes and refused admis-
sion to the publishers of the house pro-
gramme, whose contract saves the house
and every company that plays in it much
money. Harrison, however, evidently
assumed the right to pass as many people
as he pleased, since he rendered a proscen-
ium box free twice on Monday to his
friends.
A good audience assembled early at the
Metropolitan Theater last evening and
many more people were coming in when
-.
The latter informed the former that he
would admit two representatives from
each paper, but would not play to the
number Of passes he had reason to believe
were out. Clunie replied in effect that
his season house passes TO the press must
be recognized, that they were not unrea-
sonable-at that time not one had been
presented-that he had no reason to COM
plain because of his season ticket issue,
and that it must be recognized; that he
knew his local business and how to run
it. Harrison replied that he would not
play if the passes were recognized.
'"rhat suits me-" replied Mr.. Clunie,
quickly, and he Immediately stepped into
the auditorium and told the people to call
at the box-office and get their money.
and returning to Harrison told him to
move out of the theater as quickly as
he could, as he proposed to shut up the
house and turn off the gas.
The public present generally approved
Clunie's action.
Late Manager Charles P. Hall used to
say that about half the travelling man
ayers succeeded in making life miserable
for local managers, as they are dictate
rial, exacting and unreasonable, and act
as if the local manager did not know his
business in his community.
Evidently Harrison belongs to that
half.
The agent representing NJ. B. Leavitt,
under whose contract Harrison plays,
last evening said decidedly that Harrison
was in the wrong, though he thought Mr..
Clunie rather hasty in taking Harrison
up so quickly on his refusal to play the
company. But the latter replies that he
will not be put upon or dictated to, that
he knows his local business and has no
complaints, and he proposes to defend
his own management and he is satisfied
that the public will justify his action

BUTTER A LUXURY.
CHOKED AND ROBBED

A Chinese Hop-Picker's Experience
Among His Country1nen.
About halfpast o'clock last night a
Chinaman named All Quey was garroted
by highbinders and robbed, it is said, of
about S100.
Very little concerning the affair could
be learned from the Cinnamon on
street. 1t appears, however, from their
statements, that All Quey is in some way
concerned in hop-picking contract, and
came to town last night with considera-
bic sum of money in his possession.
He went into a cellar on | street, be-
tween Second and Third, where he
rooms, when he was set upon by couple
of his countrymen who had been waiting
for that purpose, and they choked and
robbed MIN and then escaped.
The report was that he was dying from
the effects of the choking he received,
and officer Cox and Special Officer George
Rider went to see him. He was lying in a
bunk groaning, but the officers could
see no indications of the severe choking
he was alleged to have received.
The other Cinnamon about the place
wanted to have him taken away, how
ever, fearing that he was going to die on
their hands.
