LEDERER SHOWS IN TROUBLE
Company That Owns Them INT by Asbury
PARK Bank Failure.

The troubles OF the Pan-American Amuse-
ment Company have now reached the
courts, and Supreme Court Justice O'Gor-
man granted an order yesterday directing
the officers OF the company to show cause
on Monday why a receiver should not be
appointed. Herman Oppenheimer. who Is
a shareholder in the company. Is the ap-
plicant for the receiver, and he attributes
all the troubles to Joseph V. Jordan. the
treasurer.
The Pan-American company owns SOW
eral shows, including THE Wild Rose. :
.SaIly in Our Alley and The Jewel Of
Asia George w. Lederer In its prssi-
dent and the capital stock amounts TO
SIOO 900. Oppenheimer alleges that Jor-
dan who Is also said to be treasurer OF the
Elberon Hotel and Cottage Company, de-
posted the Pan-American's funds, without
authority, with the Monmouth Trust and
Safe Deposit Company OF Asbury. Park.
which recently went into the hands OF
receiver.
Jordan is also accused OF having mis-
managed the company's assets, OF having
ouarrelled with the members OF the diher-
emit companies and Of having created scenes
and disturbances on the stage. all OF which
tended to depreciate the company's re-
sources. IL is said that inferior artists
were engaged, that the good ones were

Rehearsals for the spectacle began ohiy
last Monday, but Kiralfy has already pro,
duced it in Paris, so he has the thing all
mapped out. Many Of the dancers VINO
appeared in il there, he says, have peen
imported to take their old parts. and all
Of them are foreigners. That made u
lot easier when it came to arranging the
eyomtions for the production here-at
least 80 Kiralfy said-though TO an observer
uninitiated in the drilling Of three or four
hundred persons IL didn't seem SO
There were 200 damsels or 70 ilned up VI,
the floor. They were dressed for rehearsal
according to the dictates OF their own
conscences. They wore everything from
shirt waists and bloomers TO white muslin
short skirts trimmed with lace and decol-
lete bodices. A mere glance at the per
formers was sufficient to convince that
plain black and open work are now the
fashion.
For two hours the young women were put
through steps, grouped in figures, yelled AZ
because they didn't keep time with the
banging Of the piano and the slap-siars
made by Kiralfy with two pieces OF wood
TO accentuate the rhythm. kiralfy had
troubles. Some Of the foreign dancers, who
evidently came to this country on hoboken
ferryboats, couldn't keep time 70 save TIER
lives; Others when they kicked, did IL
rather with n force acquired from nome
training than with the grace OF ballet
dancer. SO the ballet master had to stop
the show more than once to explain TO some
would-be Carmencita that IT. doesn't look
well o toe In and that the heel should not be
raised above the toe at the top note OF
high kick. But Kiralfy says they'll learn
and that when the show has its first perfor.
nance his part Of 1t will be perfect. or
course It will be the greatest spectacle ever
seen here.
When the rehearsal was over number OF
the Young women posed for a newspaper
photographers. While the camera man was
getting ready they sang little OF Under

the words. .
