Jackson and Sheedy Join Forces
File Interpretations Albany and will Continue their Strings of Payhouses-Uncertain what Result will be No Change Expected Here.

A merger of theatrical interests which deeply concerns Norwich was effected on Wednesday, when articles of incorporation were filed at Albany, N. r.. by Ira W. Jackson of New Lon don and Michael Sheedy of Fall River. As both of these man have theaters in this city, there is much interest in the affair here, although as both men are out of town it is impossible to learn just how much this city will be affect ed. Those in a position to know, how ever, stated that 1t is not believed the local playhouses will be affected at all, that they will continue to give the public the best there Is in their re- spective lines. Eheedy's Auditorium continuing with vaudeville and motion pictures, while the Broadway theater win be the playhouse for the best at- fractions.
 It is understood that the incorpora- tion was under the laws of New York state because much of the business will be conducted there, MT. Jackson stat ing when he took the Smith theater fin Bridgeport that he expected to have New York office for the purpose of get ting his bookings. The corporation will conduct amusement places as before except that the many houses will be under one chad instead of in opposition as in New London and Norwich The combination has been under way for number of weeks.

On Thursday L. L. Chapman let the contract for the remodeling of his flat iron building on Broadway, corner Of Bath street. There were four bidders. the contract being awarded to F. E: BeckWith. Work on the changes will be started this morning and hurried through as fast as possible.
 On the ground floor there will De three stores, one being partitioned off now. The remaining portion of the store will be made into two stores, the one to the south having been leased on Thursday to Ernest Johnson. The stairway to the second floor will be next to the Geer building and will be six feet wide. The change in the win- dows to accommodate this nas already been made. From the top of the stairs a hallway will run parallel to Broad way. There will be three offices on the Broadway front and two on the Bath street front With each office there will be a consultation room, so that there will be ten rooms on that floor besides the hallway. Each office will have a set bowl and will be steam heated. From this floor there will be a stairway running to the third floor, but no changes will be made on that floor as yet.
 On Thursday MT. Chapman moved much of his stock of carriages from the building, emptying the top floor, while there will be much more taken out today to allow the carpenters to proceed with their work. In Bath street MT. Chapman will later fit up the basement for a store. Ills Bath street office, where he will locate his business, is nearing completion, but is not quite completed.

PASTOR IN FlsTIc ENCOUNTER
 WITH MEMBER OF FLOCK
Preacher Charged With Assault and
 Battery-Two Factions Clash.

Knoxville, Tenn, March 11.-A fistic encounter between J. c. Miller, pastor of the Zion Lutheran church, in the twenty-first district of this county, and Sol AfcGammon, a member of hls flock. resulted today in the swearing out of warrants for several members of the congregation and for the pas tor, who Is charged with assault and battery.
 The fight was the continuation of long standing differences between two fac tions of the church. MeGammon is the leader of one faction and Miller of the other. Some say they clashed over the question of sanctihcation, while others declare that it was a dispute over a question of voting in a church election. Miller's following appeared stronger than that of his opponent, re- sultinF in the election of McGammon from the church.

MT. Jackson is the head of the Jack son Amusement company, which con- ducts theaters here, in New London and Woonsocket, and he also person. ally manages the Smith theater in Bridgeport, which he acquired but a short time ago. He has also had the aters in Putnam and Fitchburg, Mass. MT. Sheedy has string of small the aters in Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts, his headquarters oeIng at Fall River. Norwich, New London and Westerly have houses in his cir cult and all are considered paying in vestments.
 Regarding tho deal the New London Globe says:
 "The combine will not see the Bijou abandoned, for the vaudeville that has always made a hit and played to crowded houses will continue. but a higher class of artists will appear. At the Lyceum a superior class of plays than has been appearing there will be seen, a fact that will be appreciated greatly by the theatergoers of New London"
 The New London Day says:
 ~It is said by close friends of the two men who have known of the in- tended incorporation that the Norwich and New London Sheedy theaters will be changed to moving picture or five cent theaters. The ether house will he operated as now with legitimate shows at frequent intervals and vaudeville.
