When asked on Tuesday if it was so that the stock company in this city would be taken to Waterbury in a short time, Manager Rusk stated that it is and that stock will be discontin- liad here for this season after four weeks. The running of stock here was in the nature of an experiment which has been tried out in a number of ways, and next season it is probable that a larger and different company will be located here. It is not proba- ble that the house will close after the stock company goes, but just what will be done here he is not able to say at present, but he is sure the house will not be closed.
 Harry Sedley, who has been with the company since it started here, left Tuesday evening for New York, hay ing completed his engagement with the company.

Harwood lost to Foss 100 to 106, Porteous 11D to 107 and to William 100 to 109, Harwood being obliged to get no points, so all games were lost by a small margin. Pierson likewise had close games.
