Lester. Witllack, Theodore Moss, e¢ al, torecover the sum of $36,000 for damages sustained in an assayt committed by said defendanta, Wallack, Moss, ef al., upon said plaintitf, Jean Henri Broughne, aforesaid, In the first case, after opening by counsel, Charles W. Brooke, Esq., Theodore Moss being sworn for plaint- ifs, testitied as follows: Tam nominally the treasurer, but in reality the asso- ciate manager, of Wallack’s Theater. My attention was attracted to the gate of the theater on the evening of March 14th by an altercation between the defendant and the door keeper of the theater. Defendant was ap- parently moving house, He was hardly visible for the quantity of clothing and other things which be bad in his hands, The door-keeper demurred to letting bim enter with such a lot of trash. He was loaded down with two or three suits of clothes, three or four hats, several pairs of shoes, six umbrellas, four canes, eight carpet bags, and a quantity of other personal effects. He looked for all the world like a peripatetic pawn- broker's shop. My door-keeper called me to assist him in patting the young man out, dnd in the struggle which followed he, no doubt, sustained afew slight bruises and, scratches, but none, I am sure, of any gravity. Cross-examined.—I am not the official * bouncer” of the theater. That is the department of Mr. Arthur Wallack, who is kept in training all the year roand. I am nsually in my office up-stairs when a row coms on, and I never go down-stairs until it is safely over. I know of nothing that occurted to justify the young man in kicking up such a distarbance. My reputation is that of an extremely good-natured person. ‘John Lester Wallack, sworn for the defense, testified as follows: x Tamanactorand authah. I dohavea feeble recollec- tion of the row the othah night. I rathab fancy I saw our door-keepah grappling a horridly caddish fellah in ‘some doocidly rum togs. The fellah may be in court, bat I carn't recognize him, ‘The fact is, I nevah allow myself to be interested in anything 80 caddish as a row, I leave all that sort of thing to Moss. I really wouldn't find it worth while to meddle in such ridiculous details of theatrical management. I never permit myself to be bored by them. Moss is an awfully cleval fellah, and I leave everything of that sort to him. ‘Cross-oxamined.—I am rathah undab the impression that Iam the ownah of Wallack’s Theater still, bat it would bea horrible bore finding it out. I couldn't sweah whethah the defendant in thisaction is the fellah Leaw.’ I see 80 many fellahs in a day whom I don't ref membah seeing that it would be a frightful bore to try and identify this fellah as the othah fellah. I leavo all t sort of thing to Moss—he’s such a doocid sight h at it than fam, *Pon my word, I carn't re- ~mieadbgh that we sustained any ctual damages by this ‘fellah’p caddish Lehaviah. “p> Cage closed for plaintiffs. y Deeoaani ‘case opened by counsel, James W.

After an awful row, in which I came off victorious, the matter was compromised by my payment of $1.50, It was in consequence of this trouble that when I went to Wallack’s Theater to see “Youth,” I determined not 'to be taken in a second time. So, instead of leaving my encumbrances in the cloak-room, I carried them {nto the theater with me. They consisted of an ulster overcoat, a hat, an um- brella, and a pair of rabbera, It is true that the over- coat was a trifle bulky, but the other things took up very little room. On attempting to pass the ; door- keeper, I was repnied by him and told to stand aside.
