THEATORN'M MEN HAD TO PAY FINE For Allowing Their Houses to be Overcrowded--Evidence of the Police Who Made Inspection. on Saturday Night. Prindess theatre, fine costs unposed, a n Bijou theatre, fine of £5 imposed hing Edward theatres, and Costs imposed. The above was the result of the cases against the proprietprs of three of the local 'theatorimgms, who were summoned to the police comrt, on Wednesda' morning, charged with al lowing overerowsling in' tae places of amusement. The court room was crowded with inferestes! spectators, and the hearing of the case lasted until noon, The case of Robert Lipman, pro- prietor of the Princess theatre, was the first called. A. B. Capningham ap peared on nis behalf, and entered a plea of guilty. Mr. Chuningbam point. ed out the cicoumstances of (he, case, stating that there had not been more tickets soll than would fill the nec commodation given. The trouble was in the fact that the usher was sic) on the occasion when the police mak the inspection, and, on this account | the people cosild not be shown to the seats as quickly as when the ushe was on hanks ty . City Solicitor Melntyre, who con ducted the prosécation, called Con stable Arniel, so as to show the court the conlitions: Constable Arniel said that he visited the Princess about 8.35 o'clock Gn Saturday night. He counted. about twenty-five people ip " aisle, axl about forty in the oth of $10 and and costs £ o 2 fine er. The seats were all filled, Jd there was not room for people tofget omt on one side, Mr. Lipnian was called, and he ox plained Low he had been hanglicapper hw not having his usher on haotl. He had helped in the work, There were plenty of seats he said, to accommo date all who were in the house, There were about twenty-five people in om aisle and fifteen in the other. The magistrate held that there hac neon a violation, and imposed a fine of £10 and costs, J. L. Whiting appeared on * behalf 0 A. Burrowes, of the Bijou and pleadex "not guilty." Constable Arniel told about visiting the theatre, about 8.45 Saturday. night The place was crowded to the doors, and ail the seats were filled, as fa as he could see. The aisle was clea back to the seats at the rear, but in this area, at the back of the theatre, there were about fifty or sixty people standing, He counted about thirty and woultl judge that he had only count' ed one half of the number. The spac at the baex ~ould be about 9x16 feet To Mi. Whiting, witness said tha he knew Saturday night was a ba night to keep the theatre cleared o people. He had received several com Plaints ahout the theatres being crowd . Mr. Whiting wantetl to secure th on of some of the people who hax been complaining, but the magistrat said that he was not forced to give them. Constables Ndaylon and Timmermas also gave evidence. Constable Timmer man told the court that he counter gixty people in the space at the rear and then there were two or three left lhe aisle was clear, however, Mr. Burrowes said that he was no at the /theatre the night in question as he was compelled to stay doors as he wis suffering from a severe cold He had two men as ushers, and the pisno player was also assisting, & times. He always gave strict orders to allow no standing in the aisles. The space at the rear, he had never regardetl 4s a passage way, as it was not. guartled by iniling, but had, op account of instructions received from the police, complied with the request to keep this space open, hut found it very diffioult, at. times, to do so. He had on several occasions, to give the people their money back, and let them go out. Several. of the employees at the theatre 'were called. Gordon Staley said that there werg about twenty-five people at the rear, but it 1 crowded hy apy means. How®ver, he would not contradict the evidence of the constables, "when they stated that there were more. William Francis, the doorkeeper, said that there had been no limit plac on him, as to the number of tickets < he should colleet. He swore that there were only a few people standing at the back. Fdward Pound, another attached to the thea- tre, thought that therp might have been Sbout twenty-five people stand- ing, but not anv more. . r. Whiting pointed out that the doors were wide open, and if the peo- ple had occasion, to go out, they could do #0, without any trouble, The danger was all imaginary. The pro- regulations, but was doing his best to regulate things. H there was any violation, it was purely of un technical nature. Mr. McIntyre said that the charge was laid under the section with re gard to "egress from public buildings" and this pointed out that all ap- proaches must be kept clear. It was probably all right, in times of peace, when there was no trouble, to allow Deathly Cramps | crowding, but not | prietor did not want to violate all the | 3" spring n any other tina in the wistary of the i should be' a calamity, it would be different. The magistrate said that he believed that Mr: Burrowes had made every attempt to kedp within the leifer of the law, in making provision for over- crowding, but it was quite clear from the evidence given that there had heen overcrowding. He would, therefore, impose & fine of $5 and costs. Andrew (i. Simmons answered (o the against the King Edward. He said that he would admit that there were a few standing at the back of the theatre, byt would not gsdmit that there had been any overcrowding. Constable Arniel said that he went into the theatre sbout 5:45. There were about forty people standing up at the rear of the theatre. This crowd prevented people from going out. 'onstable Naylon counted forty peo- ple at the rear, and Constable Yim merman figured the number as forty five: William Ashley, the manager of the theatre, said that there was quite a few empty seats, but pointed out that it was a very difficult matter to get the people to go down to the seats, especially when they came in, near the nd of a show. The exit on Montreal street was always used, and a big crowd could easily be disposed of by this door, Mr. Mglntyre said that there was no doubt but that the conditions at this theatre were decidedly better than it the other two." However, he did not think that reason had been given or allowing forty-five people to stand at the rear, especially when there were vacant sents, us it had been pointed ut. The magistrate imposed a fine of $2 ind costs, and pointed out that he wd no doubt the proprietors were loing what they could to obey the re- gulations. He knew that it was hard to regulate the crowd, but the rofrietors would have to keep the sassngewnys clear. If necessary the floors would have to be closed and 10 more people allowed in until after me show was over. - charge AT THE Y.W.CA. Miss Gibson Resigns as Secretary---- Tea and Sale Held.
