MALONE AFTER NEW HAVEN ROAD
Bay State Attorney General Charges Sub
scription for Railway Stocks.

Boston. Oct. S-Attorney General Dana Malone
to-day fled an information in the Supreme Court
against the New York. New Haven & Hartford
Railroad. the allegation being that the railroad had
directly and indirectly subscribed for the stock
bonds OF certain domestic railways. In other
words tho Attorney General charges that the rail-
road Is engaged in kind of business not author
tied by it's charter. and injunctions IN restraint
thereof are sought.
This action came echo OF the merger legis-
lation agitation that filed with excitement the clos
ing hours Of the last session of the Legislature.
When 20 general court failed TO pass the Anti
Merger bill urged by Governor Guild. he addressed
himself 10 the Railroad Commissioners. calling at
tention to the New York, New Haven & Hartford's
street railway holdings The commissioners, on
the Governors initiative, investigated the situation
and made report 10 the Attorney General
Although IL has been published that the New
Haven road has practically given up its street
railway holdings as corporation. the Attorney
General stin believes there are important legal
questions involved which the Supreme Court
ought pass, hence the filing of proceedings
against the road in the Supreme Judicial Court

POINT FOR METCALFE.
Court Dismisses Habeas Corpus OF
WalLdck's Manager.

Justice Fitzgerald remanded Charles Burnham
manager of Wallack's Theatre. yesterday, and dis
missed the writ OF habeas corpus sworn out by his
counsel after he with other managers had been
arrested on complaint of James s. Metcalfer the
atrical critic for Life" charging criminal con-
spracy in barring him out OF their houses.
Justice Fitzgerald says that 1t appears that the
defendant and other theatrical managers were Of
Tended by certain opinions expressed In some OF
the complainants writings.
Their resentment may may not be well
founded" says the decision. but that is imna-
teriaL 1t cannot be held that dramatic criticism
Is of itself unlawful, and while 1t may be that
critics in some instances transcend legal bounds
the law in such cases affords ample remedies
against writers and publishers 1t is claimed that
the combination of managers in this instance prac-
tically controls all OF the city theatres. and that
painant Of the opportunity OF pursuing his pro
fession The gravamen OF the charge Hes IN the
agreement, and the collective rights OF the parties
thereto cannot be measured by the nature OF their
individual rights in respect to individual acts.
1T is that theatrical manager owes no
duty to the public TO give performances. and that
for seats he ncurs liability should he see fit to
discontinue for time, altogether abandon, per
formances already announced. He may even refuse
TO sell tickets to some applicants, while freely dis
posing of them TO others. provided such discrimina-
ton ia not account of color, etc, but
ceding him all these rights they cannot be held TO
10 the prejudice Of individual or class OF in
dividuals.
There are unquestionably many purposes for
which persons engaged in the same general line OF
affairs may lawfully combine, but when the pur-
pose Of the combination is OF a character to affect
prejudicay the interests Of others then acts which
dividual become criminal If done pursuance OF
common agreement by a number of individuals"

THE MADISON SQUARE FARCE.
"LnckY Miss Dean. "

This is a piece of comic tangle, made by Mr.
Sidney Bowkett. of London where some time ago
II favorably received-probably because OF the
acting of Charles Hawtrey IN the leading part An
artist, named Ware, has privately married Acacia
Dean. They impecunious Ware has painted a
portrait OF Miss Dean and got il into exhibition
He procures publication Of announcement that a
wealthy connoisseur has seen and admired the pict-
ure, and has left a large fortune. by will, to the
original OF 1t. Relatives Of Miss Dean,
hitherto distant, then appear-an uncle, an
aunt and two cousins. one lie having been
told other lies become essential. Ludcrous
situations Of cross purpose are created, with
and then a colloQuy Of equvoke. The
theme is bland mendacity. The intent is to elicit
laughter. and that intent is accomplished. The
plan of the farce obviously, is neat. Mr.. Hawtrey,
with his imperturbable face AMI crisp manner.
must have been ludcrous indeed. Mr.. William
Courtleigh made conscientious exertion, but he has
yet TO acquire 1exibty OF method. self-command
in comic situations. and the skill of incisive de-
livery. He has alacrity, and bounce. and sufi-
GENTLY GLIB vocalism but lie is not intrinsicay hu
norous The piece does but little for itself. All
depends on the acting. Mr.. Gottschalk. as enc of
the amorous cousins, afforded n capital piece OF
characterization. This is a comedian who knows
exactly how far to go and when to stop; whose
called The Daughter OF the Tumbrels,' preceded
the farce. showing a hackneyed incident of the
Terror in the French Revolution. W. W.

repeated attempts by Count de Castellane's ad-

No decision has ben reached relative TO the
