saoo, 900 THEATRE TO BE
BUILT IN THIS CITY

A. A. Spitz of Providence and Charles H. Stedman of Cranston, R. l., who run a chain of 26 theatres in New England. took a 99 year lease Monday from T. c. Murphy and William P. SfcGarry on the entire so-cailed Vaughn property between Rose place and Ferry street which Messrs. Murphy and McGarry bought last April Over s750.000 is involved in the rental price for the term making the sec ond six-frure real estate transaction in Norwich within a week.
 Mir, Spitz and MT. Stedman. who are associated as the A. A. Spit5 Amusement company. which conducts theatres under the name of Empire in the different cities. have taken the Norwich lease to build a theatre here which will cost approximate ly-$200s00o for the building The house will seat 1900 and will be entirely a ground floor house. The main entrance will be on Rose place and there will be 2 Rose place exit and exits on Ferry street, as-the building will extend from street to street in a diagonal way across the lot, cutting slightly across the corner of the Vaughn office building which fronts on Ferry street. The stage. which will be the largest in the city, will be at the Ferry street end of the building. Fire proof construction will be. used through out.
 Provision is to be made in the plans for a store about 2Sx50, entrance to which will be through the theatre foyer on Rose place. Murphy 6 McGarvy have taken a lease on this store but state it is not for their present clothing business on Main street. Hayes Bros' garage, which Is located now on a portion of the property, will continue to use this for a while until the progress of the building mGp.es it necessary for them to move. The lessees propose to start construction work at i once and push it as fast as possible
 l These Rhode Island lessees have been l looking for 8 theatre location in Norwich for the past four years and have nego- tiated at times for other pieces of prop erty. The negotiations for the Murphy 6 l McGarry lease were consumated through
 John A. Moran the real estate broker who has been in touch with Messrs. Spitz | and Stedman in their previous efforts tc ! locate here. So far as known this is the 1 only S9 year lease covering Norwich
 property wholly ever recorded in the tow l clerks records. and it makes the second
 big real estate transaction which Broker Moran has figured in w@Shin a week.

At the meeting of the courts of com mon council held Monday night at the council chambers Mayor Milo R. Waters reported no behalf of the special com mittee to investigate trolley fares, that the Connecticut company officials fadsre- ported that the matter of transfers on the Willimantic- New London road could not be accomplished as far as Norwich was concerned, as the situation here was the same as in all other cities in the state under similar conditions. The company officials replied that if any change on the transfer charges was made in Norwich it would neceSsitate the changing of rulings throughout the state and the revenue of the, company would fall off considerably. The re- port of the committee was then discussed by the council and accepted.
