THEATER
 CHRISTMAS |S
 GREAT SUCCESS

All of the Elks theater was a gigan- tic Christmas tree yesterday afternoon for more than a thousand youngsters came to Miss Jeanne Russells big party, free for every tot in town Miss Russell, better known to Phenicians as Mrs. Ray F. Brandon, gives such a party every year no matter where she is located and with the hearty cooper alton of the Redmond company the en- tertainment fairly outdid anything of the kind before attempted. There were so many kiddies in the house that they literally sat outside the balcony and box railings, hanging over the audience be- low and suspended from the arms of older folks who had their fun in the spontaneous fun of the little people.
 There was scarcely breathing space in the house and for about three hours the Redmond company and the Bran dons outdid themselves in making fun for the Christmas guests and then came the big Christmas tree with Jesse L. Boyce as the de facto Santa Claus. Right well did the honorable fill the bill and there was not a tot sent away without a gift for the local merchants provided a great quantity of goods out of which packages had been made for tue UCCdSIOH
 The Redmond company took the oc- casion to present the new bill for the week and mighty good job they made of it, introducing the novelty of an olio between acts so as to make the per formance practically continuous. This olio, by the by, is a dandy one with all the company favorites in delightful specialties.
 Never Was there an audience more ready to take part in the fun of a show and so the really excellent entertain ment went over big, as it will undoubt- edly go the balance of the week in cluding the special matinee today.
 During the olio there was an added number which made it hit. It was con- tributed by little Jessie Evelyn Welch, aged six years, and after she had done her turn she encountered Santa Claus off stage and secured his promise to stop at her house for sure" this morn ing.
 Altogether the Elks theater was a sight for weak eyes yesterday, peedy little oIes making, as MT. Redmond said, the greatest audience have ever played before n all my life"

SEAT ON EXCHANGE
 ! IS SOLD FOR $50
But Owner May Never Enjoy ! Fruits of His Bargain

2 New York, Jan. 5.-In yesterdays . ssue of The New York Law Journal ,lhere appeared a notice of the pro-
 posed sale by pubh.. auction of AL
 bert Gallatin Wheeler, Jr.'s, seat on 7. The New York Stock Exchange. Seats
 on the stock exchange are worth
 from $70,00O to $S0,0o0, yet the price paid for it after the going, going,
 gone of Auctioneer Brady was $50. The man who purchased the seat, and < who says he has every legal reason to
 believe that he now owns 1t. Is Jo- Beph Weinstock, proprietor of a Park Row moving picture theater. whose Hid of $50 was the only one made when the seat was put up for sale. < However, it now appears that there ] k a very long and also an unusually aBtrong string, or set of strings. tied ako the sale. James A. Lynch of 51 Chambers street, who is the receiver of the Wheeler properties, said the tale was made with several conditions nttached. One was that, the price a4lust be acceptable to him as receiver. Another was that the sale must be ap- sproved by the board of governors of 1he stock exchange, and still a third swas that the seat, despite the sale, .must remain subject to whatever claim gmay be flied against it. A represen- laative of MT. Lynch said last night That he was in a position to say that sNr. Lynch, as receiver, would never NO. K" any such price as $50.
 H MT. Wheeler's seat came under the sAuctioneer's hammer as a result of a
 judgment against him for s6,600 ali gnony due to his divorced wife, Clau- llia I. Wheeler
 Go1dstein & Goldstein. lawyers of e366 Broadway are the attorneys for Mrs. Wheeler as well as for Joseph
 Weinstock, She buyer of the seat.
 The lawyers said yesterday that they had not advertised the auction in the newspapers, but had posted mo- vtice on Sheriff Al Smiths bulletin

value to the commission in it's busi- ness Investigations. Recently the chairman has devoted much time to a study of business accounting sys- tems. The commission is working out now system of standardizing ac- counts. ..
 Foreign trade promotion also has drawn considerable attention from MT. Hurley. He is a strong advocate of cooperation in foreign trade and had much to do with drawing the bill now pending in congress to permit combinations of American exporters to obtain foreign business

board, and also in the County court house. Likewise it was advertised in yesterdays issue of The Law Jour- nal.
 Fight to the Finish.
 Jonah Goldstein was in Brooklyn appearing as counsel for the -defen- dant in a birth control case yesterday. He laughed when the sale of the stock exchange seat was mentioned to him
 "The thing was put up and there weren't any bidders except our friend, Joe Weinstock," he said, "and so he bid $50 and got it. Our big fight now is to make the New York Stock Exchange accept Joseph Weinstock, pro cprietor of the City Hall Moving Picture theater, as a member; and k we're going to fight that. to a finish. a '"rhe Stock Exchange has always contended that seats on the Exchange could not be sold to satisfy a judg ment, as members had to be passed upon by the board of governors of the Exchange. We found in an old case that the seat could be sold, and that the governors had only to pass on the matter Of whether or not the pur- chaseE should be seated. And so we got Justice Pendleton to grant the order for the sale.''
 Mrs Wheeler won't get much out of such 9. small selling price, will she?' the lawyer was asked.
 "Oh, that will be fixed up in the future. The seat will have greater value when it can be occupied" he explained. We've got the seat, and now we're going to make it valuable" :" "Did you advertise the sale as re- quired by law he was asked. "Oh,, yes," he replied. We posted a notice on the sheriff's bulletin board and another in the court house. Advertise it in the papers," "Oh, we didn't have money enough for that
 Expect any competitive bidders ?" "Yes, we rather thought that Wheeler would have some representa- tive there to try to bid it in. We could have bid up to $7,O00 without putting up a cent, you see, for that was the amount of the Judgment ''Did MT. Wheeler know that it was to be put Up?'
 "Yes we sent him notice by regis tered mail ten days ago, and at the , same time sent notice by registered 1 mail to the board of governors of the Exchange. Mr. Goldstein said the case was without precedent and was Every in teresting."
 Other Exchange seats have been sold under the hammer for extraordi- | narily low prices. One was recalled yesterday, which took place several years ago, in which the price was $5, hut was legal form, and a supple l mertary transaction put the price close to the current quotation in the Street The seat sold most recently, December 30, 1916, went for $72,000

print paper and other investigations. Nothing but business is pulling me away" he said. 1T am building an addition to one of my manufacturing plants in Chicago and I want to be on the job This is the time for the captain to stick to the bridge"
 The resignation makes two vacan- cies on the commission. Commission CT Rublee left at the expiration of the last congress, when the senate again failed to confirm his nomination and his place never has been filled.
 Mr. Hurleys wide business knowl- edge has been regarded as of great

companies, despite the war, can pro- vide the projectiles 35 to 40 per cent. cheaper than any of the American steel companies. Hadfields, Ltd. of England agreed to supply 5000 16 inch propectiles inf sixteen months at $513 each, duty paid. The Bethlehem Steel company wants $776 each, to provide 4,0O0 in thirty-six months, while the price from the Midvale Stee, company was $9O0 each for 1000 in twenty-four months.
 For IA inch shells Hadfelds, Ltd, offer a price of s356 each for 4,500. which they agree to deliver in eleven

 the Crucible Steel company
 $543.50 each for 2.000, deliveran thirty -four months.
 Secretary Daniels was so struck the difference in price that he eEl sized it in the press motive giveI by the navy department. He is loss to understand why the Ane prices are 50 much in excess. MT. iels said the Hadfields company fer would be considered in aWa1 contracts.
