cur OFF STROLLERS SUPPLIES.
Temporary Misunderstanding Greatly Ham
pered the Clubs Members.

For the first time In ten days the cheerful
clink o, the high ball was heard last night IN
the rooms Of the Strollers' Club at i42A Broad
way. The weather was appropriate to the
restoration OF privileges OF which the clubs
ner,. beers had been Unexpectedly and suddenly
DERIVED. The club occupies two floors over
Browns chop house. It's members draw upon
the re ,taurant for supplies and ii was on that
condition that the club decorated and arranged
It's UNIQUE quarters. For that reason II came
a. a shock TO most OF the members TO hear that
William +. Wunderlich, who manages the res
taITant for its owners, had notified the walters
that nothing was to be served to ia" members
OF the club UPSTAIRS, The way III which the
announcement OF this intention was made
proved especially dl.agrceable TO the mem-
b-rs, who learned from a waiter for the first
time that they we're no longer to b. served as
they had been.
one uisht a group Of members rang for a
waiter ~ they had always been IA the habit
oil doing. None aIpeared Tor some time and
the NaIIpr who finally answered the sumInOns

A committee oi the members immediately be-

OF the mauageT's action was under discussion,

This state OF -loge was LOt without It's dis

has a very muOn smaller patronage Than USUAL.
Inc negotiations betwen the cubs officers

the restaurant continued Tor several days. In
the meantime, the drought at the CLUB con-
tinued. lhe proprietor Of the rlstaurant,
after he heard all the facts in tho "a. aud
learned what the legal features Of the situa-
ton were, took sides with the club. and yes-
1, rday the privileges were restored In Iull.
10 Mi appearanc,s. there ~ a complete estab-
li,hmrnt of peace between the manager and
the club menfs r..
could b. induced 10 discuss the terms on which
the manager had surrender red to the club. All
that could b" l.arn.d was that after an inter
r'gnum OF terrific dryne-s. the club was again
enjoying the privileges u the bar.
Everything l. peaceful, said a Stroller Last
night, and It is not likely that there viii b.
any further interruption In the future. NJ
reasons. for the sudden action OF the manager
have been discussed, The conference betwsen
the lawyers and the proprietor Of the restaur-
ant were devoted entirely 20 securing a prompt
restoration of the privileges insured by the
terms on which the club rents H. two floors
here. There seems TO have been no particular
reason for the action OF the manager In sud
denly declining to serve the members Pos
sibly such a thing would never have occurred
10 him II the club had seen its way to ~electing
him a member. But that was out Of the ques-
ton. you know. The membership Emit has
about been reached already, But We antlci-
-. no mora trouble in the future "
