about ons-third Of the iiytwo theatres in the city

tina. the inspection the first thorough one which
had been made for several years In some cases he
had caused a second and third inspection by othes
officers. when he frst report showed that the the
atre was in an exceptionally bad condition.
Mr. Constable raid: Various violations Of the
building Law were discovered In some there
were no proscenium arches, and In others the fire.
escapes ina iequate There were violations OF
law In the location Of carpenter shops ard in the
improper storage of 'nfammable scenery. Some Of
the buildings were entirely unsuted for use as
theatres. 1t is not possible always to condemn a
building absolutely though 1T is not fitted for oc-
cupancy as thea re The Mayor has the power to
revoke a license II the theatreowners do not fulfil
the requirements OF law, and ii may be possible 10
reach them in hat way.
Mr. Constable would not give the names OF any
theatres Of which the construction was especially
faulty. The Star Theatre and ST. James Hall were
spoken OF places In which improvements were
to be made The newly constructed theatres were
not criticised Some Of the Old theatres. especially
on the Bowery, were said to be defective In con-
sruction. The owners OF the theatre buildings are.

do not quickly comply with the suggestions made
by the Superlntend Of Buildings Will undoubtedly
be compelled in some other way to NEE: the require
