MAY INDlCT THE
THEATER MAGNATES

New York, Jan 29.-It is generally
believed enough evidence has been Sc
cured by the grand jury to warrant in
dictment of the heads OF the theater
trust.
The contract Of the combination
formed by AL Hayman, Charles Froh-
man, Nixon & Zimmerman and Klaw
& Erlanger, was the principal piece O:
evidence against the syndicate. 1t was
signed on August 81, 1896, to run for
1ve years, when 1T was renewed. Last
June 1T was renewed again.
Members of the combination were to
pool profits. Each company that the
syndicate controlled got 10 per cent. of
the gross profits Of the house, and 80
per cent. Went to the manager of the
house, out Of which he had to give a
third to the trust. In the contract
there was a clause that they We're not
to allow any opposition attraction to
play in their houses on the circuit, nor
would any Of the houses controlled by
the trust be allowed to book any in
dependent attractions.
The syndicate had about fifty houses
on it's circuit When the agreement was
signed. Now it has all but about 100
of the 600 theaters in the country. I'm
der the arrangement Klaw & Erlanger
did the booking, M. Hayman and Mr..
Frohman had charge of the finances of
the syndicate, and Nixon & thinner
mar We're the travelling representatives.

TRUST R
MADE TO BONAPARTE

New York. Jan. 3o.-President James
Noroton, OF the Northeastern Metal
Dealers association, has made public
q letter. which, on Instructions from
the association. he has sent to Attor-
ney General Bonaparte INC which says
in part:
I'VE are prepared to prove:
That the copper trust, so called, has
created an artificial scarcity OF copper,
by storing large quantities at Butte,
Mont: Hoboken. n. j.; Perth Amboy,
n. j.: Bayonne, y. j.; Bisbee. Ariz.;:
Cananea. Mexico; H%oughton. Mich, and
other places known to our association
and refusing TO sell it except in small
quantities.
we submit that the present danger
to the trade is not so much the high
price Of copper as is the fear that the
price being held at an artificial height
ma be lowered suddenly should the
copper combination succeed in selling
its stored up produce IT re present
quotations.
