at Bow Street to-day by Walter Butler, described
a clown, and two others. there are $50 employees
OF Barnum & Baey's Circus who. after three weeks
Of unpaid rehearsals. have been dismissed with
weeks notice.
Sir James Vaughan. the presiding Magistrate
said the matter must be investigated by Civil Court
and advised the dismissed TO combine and
employ a lawyer.
Several supers have written a letter TO the news
papers saying that dismissals have been wholesale
and that their places have been filed by Yankee
circus artists" after the show was successfully
started.
George Starr ridicules the matter He says the
dismissed were all incompetent. He adds that
they paid during rehearsals and that their
places filed by new hands They were not
replaced by Americans.
