November.

No decision was reached by the
board OF directors OF the Virginia
State Library last night as TO the iden-
tity OF the artist who is to restore the
paintings Of NirgInia's Governors IN
the portrait gallery. The matter was
discussed at some length, but 1t was
decided 10 defer further consideration
until the regular meeting of the board
in November.
The Legislature at Its last session
made special appropriation OF $1,000
for the work or putting the collection
in good condition. This amount how
ever, is not available until March 1
next, and nothing Will be lost by the
further delay. The names OF several
persons have been mentioned In con-
nection with the work OF storing this
collection OF portraits, many OF which
are priceless.
The special appropriation was mace
at the instance OF the Library Board.

State Librarian H. r. McIlwaine In.

to the attention OF the board the dam

they should receive Immediate atten-

KID TELLS GROWN FOLK HOW
THEY MUST PLAY BEATRICE

POLITICS ENTERS
into QUESTION
But Citizens Believe Oyster Bot
toms Should Be Leased So
State Can Get Revenue.

There was good deal of talk yes
serday in official and political circles
over the proposition for an amendment
TO the Virginia Constitution abolishing
public oyster GROUNDS and throwing
the natural rocks open for rental to
the highest bidders. The consensus OF
opinion is that such result will finally
be inevitable, although there Is diff
ference OF opinion as to when 1T Will
come.
Il note" said a man high in the
councils OF the State authorities, that
the legislator who proposes to intro
his action on the probability OF con-
tinued misconduct on the part of the
tongers. hope it Will be done wheth-
err the tongers behave themselves or
not.
The present system is mistake.
should license tongers at a dead loss
any more than there would be for it to
rent out public lands and paw more
TO protect them than she received.
Virginia pays $40 in expenses for every
dollar she gets out of the James River.
With all the oyster grounds leased
to the highest bidder money would
flow into the State treasury like water,
and the cost of administering the laws,
while dealing with responsible parties,
would be greatly reduced"
AS matter OF fact leading resi-
dents OF the Underwater section do not
hesitate in private conversation to say
that throwing open the public grounds
to planters is inevitable. They do not
want to be quoted as SAYING SO, and
political and other reasons, but they
realize they say that the day must
come when such action Will be taken.

BROAD Street TO
GET new THEATER.
That, at Least, Is Report Which
Has Gained General
Circulation.
GLOBE STORE SITE NAMED
One Deal With shuberts AL
ready Of and Somebody
Starts Another.

Whlle there was no one, apparently,
TO stand sponsor for It. the report was
current in business circles yesterday
that a syndicate had acquired or would
acquire the property now occupied by
the Globe Clothing Company at the
southeast corner of Broad and Seventh
Streets and erect on that site a hand
some theatre to be leased to the Shu-
nerts Tor a term Of years. Back In
me summer when the trust and the
CID new trust We're fighting hard bat
Ties. somebody was building new
theatre every day. although 1t never
got beyond the paper stage.
1t is known, however, that a leading
business man has been engineering a
deal to erect a playhouse for the Shu-
berts and that he has been to New
York on several occasions to discuss
plans with the theatrical magnates
who are now the head and shoulders
OF the new trust. When questioned
last night, the business man said that
all negotiations were of.
Denials from Two.
1t would seem, therefore, that some
enc else has come to the front with
this Broad Street proposition The
Globe store, which occupies the site OF
the old Richmond Theatre. Is owned
by Colonel John Murphy James T.
Disney, manager of Murphys Hotel
and business representative of Colonel
Murphy said last night that there was
nc truth in the report that the Globe
would be remodeled into theatre.
Manager Arnold, of the Globe, said
that he had a lease for one year from
October /, which he was already seek
Ing to renew.
Seventh and Broad is regarded as
one OF the most desirable business
locations In the city. The last report
III which the Globe site figured was
that 1t had been bought by the street
railway people, but there came a
prompt denial. Even If the property
should be bought for theatre purposes
the present building would have to be
razed as the new building code lays
down stringent laws as to the con-
sstruction of theatres.
Result of Theatre War.
Since the Leath Theatrical Circuit,
broke with the syndicate with which
the Shuberts are affiliated, there has
been daily talk of erecting play
house where the shuberts could fight
Jake Wells and his associates in their
cwn territory. If the shuberts could
buy the Academy of Music it would
not help the local situation, for then
the Academy would only play so-calied
independent attractions. The public
would simply get the other half of
the same apple. Moreover. people VINO
have watched the situation believe thai
within year the two syndicates Will
get together, in which event they
would only require enc leading theatre
in city of this size. According To
those who are familiar with the build
ing talk, the shuberts would like for
Richmond people to build and then
lease on Shubert terms.
