THE MONEY NOT COMING
New York Review in Recent Article
Says That Money for Backing
of Enterprise Cannot be
Obtained.

The Chamberlain Harrington circuit
has not been bluffed into accepting
|. the proposition recently made by
klaw & Erlanger for the exclusive
production Of trust shows in their
theatres, concerning which the Bur-
lington Gazette says.
The trust wished the privilege of die
tating absolutely the productions to
be shown in the theatres, but prom
ised nothing in the way of any GER
tain number OF attractions or the
grade and character of shows. 1t
was a one-sided proposition. The
Chamberlin-H Harrington company has
signed contract to book trust shows
but reserves the right to book any
other attraction which may be Of
fered. The trust can haze as many
dates as 1t wants, but it can not COM
pei the theatres to be dark on nights
when other productions may be Sc
cured, and for which dates the trust
does not provide shows.
1t is announced that. the Chamber
n-Harrington company is lined up
with the open door" policy and will
not retreat from that position. The
New York Review in a recent issue
exposes the bluff of the X. & E. syndi-
cate. They say that the trust cannot
raise the s25,000,000 which will be
needed to erect theatres in the middle
west. Furthermore, they say that men
will not invest money in such an en-
terprise, as it would not be dividend
paying investment The erection of
theatres requires from year to three
years time and in that length of time
the theatrical situation may be entire
ly changed. Also, the putting up of
new theatres in the middle west towns
/ will not Increase the patronage, it will
simply result in both theatres running
/ at loss.
The Review further says that Er.
LANCER has resigned as manager of the
trust, after having broken up one OF
! the smoothest theatrical machines
ever built. Erlanger says he has moth
ing to do with the bluff being made,
but says it is entirely the work OF
Mayer of Chicago.
The local theatrical men say that
the two representatives who visited
| Burlington. Davenport. Quincy and
other cities are merely managers of
opera houses. They are of the opin-
ion that the trust has offered them
certain patronage if they can get thea
! tres by lease or any other way, where
they will compete with the houses
represented in the Western associa-
ton For instance, if they can get
the Elks at Quincy to put in enough
money to build theatre they take
no risk, but stand to build up ma
chine of their own The Chamberlin-
Harrington company do not fear that
any property owner or capitalist in
I Burlington will be found who will put
up another opera house, which they
say would be a losing investment. as
it would be entirely unstable when
built and could not be made to pay.
The Chamberlin-Ha Harrington compa
j ny feel that they can assure the peo-
! pie of the middle west that this syndi
| cate which has been stirring up ex
/ element will not build any theatres
! They fell certain that the power oil
! the trust has been broken
