Realizing that aid was not forthcoming, he displayed wonderful presence of mind in his efforts to help himself.

With his free hand he succeeded In removing both his shoes and with these he attempted to block the scraper line. This, however, he failed to accomplish, and was released only when the arm was severed. Mr. Coons was as to the truth of the rumors that the Broad would close on March 5th. His answer was that Vogel's which are booked for the Broad March Sth.

would positively be the last attraction In the Broad for the present season, at least. Asked as to why the house would make such an early clo.ie, and whether It was not an unusual occurrence that is, closing so early in the season Mr. Coons replied that, owing to the fact that he was unable to secure high class attractions such as have been directed by an injunction of the court this has been the most disastrous season in his extended experience. In fact, the season has been the worst, almost, in the history of the larger cities'. High class attractions that have been traveling, making 'one night stands, have been compelled to cancel their engagements and return to the larger cities to fill out engagements caused by the failure of different companies.

Flays that were booked for extended runs in the larger cities have abruptly closed. Therefore, It has been necessary for the road companies to cancel their dates and return to the cities, which fact has left our houses dark for lengthy periods. Another reason is that, heretofore, we have been provided with attractions that are now controlled by anliTsyiulieaU' people such as the Shuberts, who have a long list of first class attractions that formerly played this territory liOt iis help you make your home prettier, more ehccrfnl and more attractive than It ever has before.

Asked as to his intentions regarding the dissolving of the syndicate, Mr. Coons said that he would ally himself with the parties who can furnish the best and most suitable attractions. He continued: like many others, have been shamefully treated by the trusts, who, by threats and intimidations, have practically run the theaters in this 'region to suit themselves."
