How He Sees and What He Says of the
Results of Iroquois Fire.

The theatrical mans side Of the Iro-
quois theater disaster is set forth very
clearly In a letter received here this
morning from Charles b. Goes, presi-
dent of the Goes Llthographing COM
pany Of Chicago, which furnishes about
30 different attractions with show
printing. The letter Is addressed to
Dan Mccoy manager Of 'Maloney's
Wedding" the current attraction al the
Grand, and reads In part, as follows;
Il presume that you know from the
papers that every playhouse In Chicago

the house managers will get the new

these new requirements. one OF the
aldermen told me last night that he
was OF the opinion that ABOUT SEW

NEVER BE ABLE TO REOPEN, as
IL would be impossible for them to
comply with the requirements without
tearing down the entire building and

they do not think the Irouuos fire Will
