SHADOWS OF NEW THEATRES.
THE LIST OF THEM STILL LENGTHENS.
BUT THE BUILDINGS ARE NOT IN SIGHT.

In news atmosphere which is always rarifed
In the warm season small bodies of news have a
natural tendency TO expand. And the rumors of
new theatres, which never totally disappear. grow
aonormally just now. Readers with good memories
for such things Will recall how a month or so ago,
II was gravev announced that somebody or other
was about to build the largest theatre in the
world on lot 100 by 10 feet That theatre is Ian
gushing little Just now, through the failure OF
the somebody or other 10 engage press agent
capable of keeping the stories about II UP TO the
standard at which they started.
But there other theatres in prospect besides
this. Heinrich Conried the manager Of the Irving
Place Theatre. is 10 have one 1t Is impossible TO
give the exact location OF II yet but It will be
somewhere between Avenue A and Eleventh-ave.,
and 1t is certain that It will be further south
than Fourteenth-st. further north than One
undred-and-thirty- ffth-st. II will thus at all
events be centrally located II will not be ready
occupancy till the beginning OF the next century.
and. as preliminary to moving out Of the Irving
Place Theatre, Mr.. Conred has taken a new lease
of that house for ten years, and has had II newly
furnished and decorated.
David Belasco did not obtain lease Of DAILY s
Theatre and therefore his often expressed desire
for theatre OF his in New-York is not yet
gratied 1t is therefore reasonable to suppose that
ne will have new theatre and II may as well be
announced now as any time This theatre will be
in or Broadway between Twenty-third and
Fifty-ninth SITS. There is no more desirable ioca-
ton for theatre in the city than this. IL Will be
devoted TO Mr.. Belascos own plays, and 10 sucn
others as may be necessary now and then 10 MI
In the chinks.
Since Daniel Frohman is to be the manager OF
Days Theatre. It may be that his new theatre
which has been announced with more or less con-
fdence any time in the last half dozen years, VIII
be somewhat further delayed.
There is rather shattered rumor drlttlns heIP-
lessly the ebb tide OF news interest that preN
ously condemned theatre is TO have stay OF
execution. This is the Star, which according 10
reports of a month ago. was to be demonsheo 70
make way for a business building about a year ana
half or two years hence. II has been announced
lately that the Star was 10 stay after an lot an
other five years. The new building which is 70
stand IN its place is TO belong to Rogers, Peet q
Co A representative Of that house SAID yesterday
that r NJ Quick & Co, the present managers OF
the theatre had lease of II. but that II was a
lease with a string it He did not believe that
the theatre would continue 10 be one for more
than two years. .,- - 49, :.
