BIG MINSTREL
WAR NOW ON
Evans MinstreIs Sent South to Head
Off Al c. Field, the Popular
Independent.

Cleveland. o.. Oct. 6.-The big
fight in the minstrel
world is waxing more interesting
every day as the season advances.
The conflict began in Cleveland when
Lew Dockstader and Honey Boy Ev-
ans met here together. Dockstader
played at the Colonial while Evans
put his production on at the Euclid.
Lew is expected to have all the better
of the struggle for patronage against
Evans, having played for $4,000 for
the week here while Evans reception
was not so encouraging.
The Evans show has left for the
South where they will conflict with
the Al. G. Field Greater Minstrels.
Klaw and Erlanger book both the
Evans and Dockstader shows and it
is claimed that they have put the
Evans minstrels in a night ahead of
Fields in many places.
Field has always been a Klaw and
Erlanger man but last season when
the theatrical factions were warning
/ in New York Field announced his in
tention of playing all contracts as
made by Klaw and Erlanger for his
company This course was opposed
by Klaw and Erlanger But later or
when the policy adopted by FielC
compelled him to play Atlanta, Lit
tie Rock and other cities in houses il
opposition to Klaw and Erlanger
they did not relish it and endeavoret
to compel Field to play their houses
, The policy adopted by Field wa
maintained the entire season. Neitf
: er side of the opposition bookin
agents in New Fork city was able t
cancel the Field booking. The court
everywhere sustained his position
: This embittered both the Schubert
Il and Klaw and Erlanger.
The booking of the Evans compar
n ahead of Field will not greatly hi
der him through the South as A
Field is their first choice for Pres
dent. The Evans show will be r
l. minded of this before they are
e that territory long.
