It may be inferred with fair legal pre- sumption of fact, that such impression, as several witnesses have testified to, has not been produced by Commission CT Gilhuly without some basis of spe- cific acts and utterance by him, even though no such act could be definitely proved. If. according to the statutes, disorderly houses, and houses of ill., fame, which are only reputed to be such, can be convicted in court upon their reputation, still more in the case of a municipal officer, who should be above suspicion, on the same legal
 principle action may be had when his
 business is credibly reputed to be con- trary to his public trust, even though no actual misconduct should be proved against him. Reputation even more in the latter case than in the former is a
 valid ground of complaint. But fur
 thermore the wisdom shows specific
 acts and utterances of Commissioner
 Gilhuly which substantiate this general
 repute of his official misconduct, to wit,
 d) Two witnesses have testified to the
 fact that. while he was a member of
 the board of aldermen, Mr. Gilhuly sought and obtained position on the
 police board for purposes of private
 gain. @ The following citations from
 the, evidence indicate both directly and
 presumptively that he has taken ad-
 vantage of bis position: that his busi-.
 ness has greatly increased since he se-
 cured position on the board: that otb-
 CTS in the same business have been
 subjected to an unfair competition by
 reason Of his official position; that cus-
 toners have been secured in his name and by his agents on the ground that he was commissioner: that saloon- keepers and others whose trade he has, obtained, have given as q reason for their transference of their custom that

One ot the most persistent and defiant law. breakers had been raided by the police it appears that immediately after the raid Commissioners Clancy and Gill huly sought out one of the officers who made the raid-one of them visiting him in his home, the other finding him on the street-and inquired particularly of him how bad the evidence was. The officer could not remember all the con versation which ensued. and testified with reluctance: but he said that the commissioners wanted to know how bad the case was: that they seemed interested in 1t; that the impression which he received from their, coming to him was that it would be Just as we'll if the case was not prosecuted too hard. The officer did not testify that they came to him to encourage and sustain him, as the charter re- uuires, in his faithful discharge of duty in getting evidence against their friend and customer. There is an utter ab- sence of any testimony to such sus- taining and encouraging action on the part of Mir. GilhuIy. The evidence, and the weight of. evidence, Is all in the wrong scale. There Is absolutely noth- Ing to balance 1t in the other scale.
 The incident in evidence may also be cited in which a request for Mir. Gil- huly's arrest was made by other per- sons of an officer at tho depot; not that this incident shows further inter- ference by him with the police, but that 1t shows possible occasion for the police to intertere wltb the cofnmis- sioner. and therefore ik admisstble as evidence upon the question as to his fitness 10 remain in, oface.

Plays and Players.

The engagement of the distinguished
French players Coquelin and Hading in
New York has been disappointing in a pc
cuniary sense.
"Money Mad" will follow " The Wild
der " at I.othrop's Opera house. There is
a sensation feature in the play showing
realistic draw bridge scene.
Frederic Bryton and Duncan Harrison,
two fine actors, with n strong supporting
cast, will appear in the romantic drama
OF Forgiven" at Keith's Opera house,
Jan. 20.
1t is estimated that there are in this
country about Il, 900 men and women who
make a living in theatrical business and
Of these about 1000 are in New York just
now looking for employment.
Good news come from all quarters.
There has been a slight improvement in
try during the past ten days. Managers
write more encouragingly and prospects
appear to be Frightening.
The Metallic Setting company. of this
city have the contract for setting the
beautiful stained and art glass to be used
in Mr.. Keith's new 100000 theater in
Boston. This material will be employed
to very great extent in the decorative
plans Of this palatial amusement resort.
"The Maid OF Plymouth" comic opera
by Thomas p. Thorne and Clay M.
Greene, produced at the Broadway
theater, New York, Monday evening by
the Bostonians, seems to have touched
popular fancy. The principal members
of the Bostonians are supplied with parts
that bring out individual talent promi-
nently.
Miss Katherine Rober, the favorite
emotional actress, supported by Lothrops
stock company will appear in Lothrop's
Opera house, Pawtucket next week for tie
first time this season in the romantic
and spectacular drama entitled, "The Sea
OF Ice, or the Wild Flowers of Mexico"
1t will be fine entertainment for the
beautiful Pawtucket theater.
Aside from the brilliant dialogue,
"Lady Windermerc's Fam" which will be
played in he Providence Opera house, be-
ginning Jan. 20, is a strong composition
1t tells an interesting story and unfolds a
consistent plot--it treats of modern social
life in London and the attempt of Lord
Windermere TO reinstatc in society fallen
woman, whose daughter he had married.
The latter was abandoned in infancy
and supposes her mother to be dead.
Unaware OF her relationship TO the woman
whom her husband is pushing forward
socially, Lady Windermere imagines him
unfaithful and Is goaded into an elope-
ment, but Is saved by the intervention
and self-sacrifice OF her own mother.

DANBURY, Conn, Jan. 2o,-The broken
off negotiations between the committee OF
trade and the manufacturers in the hat
lockout has caused big row in the
Manufacturers association. In trying TO
arrive at a settlement the committee from
the trade granted all privileges that the
manufacturers asked for seven months
ago. Negotiations were broken Oft be
cause the manufacturers insisted that
unions guarantee non-interference with
independent shops.
Half of the manufacturers in the asso-
citation are satisfied TO resume work on the
concessions granted by the union. and last
night committee of them met the trade
leaders by appointment to arrange for a
settlement whereby they will open their
shops fair. The committee stated that
perhaps l0 factories will resume work on
the basis of concessions granted by the
unions. The unions will hold a ratifica
ton meesing this evening. when agree
ments entered into by the trade committee
and the manufacturers will be ratified.

La Marr is the same who appeared ut this

dance in an old country kitchen, which is
a very laughable affair. Fred and Alice
Warren, who appear as Robert Moore and
Polly, are great favorites on Lothrop's
