The Lyric, Kansas City, which opened last wrrk with vau(leville placed by the I'antages office at Chi- cago, is the fir^t ol the houses in the ovcrrrowdt'd lity ti» withdraw its en- try. Thf house closed Sunday ni^ht. BIG TIMB FALLING DOWN. (Continued from page 3.) daily at 10-15-25, while the former small times (Plaza) continues with five acts to 5-10-15. New Haven, Sept. 8. It is reported here that S. Z. Poll called upon P. Alonzo, his general booking chief, to make out a list of 20 headliners for this season for the Poli theatres in order that the boss of the circuit could have a look at the big time prospect It it said Mr. Alonzo vould not fur- nish Poli with a list of seven feature acts Poli could use for headliners. The outlook according to the story has greatly discouraged the New England magnate, who now believes if rumor is true that there is more money to be made in small than big time. The failure of the Colonial, New York, under the Keith direction, seems to be conceded in the intent of Keith to have his new vaudeville theatre at Broadway and 95th street replace the prize Williams house. The new Keith theatre will seat 2,200 and is due to open May 1 next, when the Colonial will be given another policy or per- haps rented. The admission at the uptown Keith house will be from ten cents to one dollar, although it may be found that the top orchestra price will be limited to fifty cents. Charles Piatt of 11 East 24th street, has almost com- pleted plans for the theatre. Tuesday the U. B. O. sent out a press story in the form of a state- ment by Percy G. Williams, in an at- tempt to hold up the claims of E. F. Albee that the Keith-Williams houses made money last season. It was re- ported Albee wanted Williams td make a flamboyant announcement "white- washing" the Albee management, but Williams confined the statement likely to the strict truth. Williams also men- tioned he did not intend returning to vaudeville, and Keith had full direction of the theatres. The impression had gained ground that the Keith New York houses had made such a poor showing Williams would retake them to prevent the prop- erties deteriorating in value. A rumor has gained credence that Keith will not renew his tenancy on the Union Square theatre when his lease expires next May. It's under- stood mercantile interests of New York have looked over the Union Square site with a view of buying the prop- erty. It's town talk that Keith has dropped money on the house in his at- tempt to make it repeat with "big time" "Keith Vaudeville." SOMB "LAW"! Chicago, Sept. 10. ■"Within the Law" played to $11,500 here last week, in the Olympir. at $1 prices. From ( hitaKr, Miss lllinKton and "The Law" show will go west, at a $2 scale. The piece is doing between $8,000 and $8,500 a week at the Eltinge at the present time. Last week, with an extra Labor Day matinee, liie r(cci|)ts totalled $9,3K5.
