Abbey was at his office for the first time since his
recent serious sickness at the Cisey House. He
had conferences with Luis J. Phelps. one OF the

sons connected with the conduct of his various
theatres and other enterprises. Mr.. Phelps said
yesterday that II vas still impossible 10 make even

he said TO get just such Information as might be
supposed to interest the public. The general belief
seems 10 be that Abbey. Schoeffel & Grau Will con-
tinue to manage the Opera House and the opera
next season. The stockholders and the opera goers
generally are too well satisfied with the manner In
which the house has been conducted and with the
grade OF opera which they have been permitted to
enjoy there to look upon any change In the manage
ment withoL. serious regret.
The assertion has been made that the losses OF the
firm on its venture with Miss Lillian Russell would
not have been so heavy would not have occurred
at all IL the management OF her affairs had been
more liberal. and 4 she had been surrounded by
better company. This will seem most astonishing
