The grand jury last week was kept
busy hearing testimony in the action
Of the United States VS.. Burke sDd
Chase, the civil rights test case in which
Mr. w. T. Ferguson is tie chief prose
cutting witness. The case, as all will
remember, grew out OF the discrimina-
ton practiced against colored people by
the management of the Grand Opera
House during the recent Williams and
Walker engagement. Mr.. Ferguson
and two ladies were elected from the
premises on account of their color. and
many we'll known citizens were either
fscly refused admission to the orches
ira. or were robbed of their rightful
coupons by "f1lm fam" process and
forced into the balcony. The testimony
before the grand jury it is said, was
direct and conclusive, and there seems
little room for doubt that an Indictment
against Burke and Chase will be made
out. From the evidence open to the
public at large, the violation OF the law
is plain and failure of the gran jury
to indict would be monstrous out
rage.
Those who are in a position to know,
intimate that the business affairs OF
Burke and Chase are in a bad condition.
The Grand rental is heavy, and for the
most part the expenses exceed the re-
ceipts, and the hackers OF the enter
prise are losing money rapidly. They |
say for Burke that he is a gentleman |
and is disgusted with Chase's assinine
policy toward colored people, which
has cost the firm no lees than 81 900 in
litigation. The shows given at the
house are Of an inferior order, and it is
regarded as only question OF time
when the doors will close for good.
Chase has found that drawing the color
line on Washington's respectable and
Negro population is a costly
experiment. Managers Rapley, Luck
cit and Dwyer, Painter, Herman and
Wellington, of the other theaters, are
irst-class business men and have no
