Murphy Sells Half ol Popular Playhouse Considera tion Said to Be $10,000. An Important theatrical deal . nas closed yesterday when Thomas W. Murphy sold his half interest in the I-yric Theater to Dan Flood, one of the- original lesses of that popular playhouse. The consideration Is un derstood to have been 110.000 and the transaction involves, the transfer of a half (nterst in the lease on the thea ter, which runs untill910. and the equipment of the theater. Mr. Murphy bought Mr. Flood's half interest last April and after making a fine profit ' from the running of the theater, sella it back to him at a decided advance. Mr." Murphy has purchased a livery stable and will engage in the horse business on an extensive scale. It is . understood that there will be no change in the policy of the house and that the Allen Stock Company will continue. The other owner is Law rence M. Keating, who le now manag ing the Columbia, in Oakland, and the firm name under which the Lyric was launched, Keating & Flood will be re stored. The Lyrio waa opened in May, 1904, a a popular priced vaudeville house. A year or two later It was changed to a low-priced stock theater. In the three yrars and 10 months It has been run ning there has not been a performance every night and the house has never known a losing week. It is doubtful if this record can be duplicated by any theater in America Mr. Murphy made many friends dur ing his management and the local pub lic will regret his retirement from the theatrical business. Mr. Flood is very well known here and is universally popular with the theatergoers as well as his fellow managers in the city. ASK MILUKOFF TO RESIGN Fight on Russian Leader May De stroy Douma's Usefulness. ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 8. The dem onstration which took place in the Douma yesterday against Professor Paul Mllu koff, leader of the Constitutional Demo crats, arising from the Ill-feeling created here by his recent lecture in New york on the political situation in Ruagla, en grosses the attention of the entire press of this city, which today united in de ploring an incident which tends to fan partisan enmity and endanger the chances of the Douma's success. The oc currences of yesterday probably will be followed up by a formal resolution cen suring Professor Mllukoff for lack of patriotism and unparliamentary conduct in vteiting a foreign country to stir up a sentiment of hostility, while occupying a responsible position in Parliament. The participation of Octoberisi In the demonstration of yesterday, under the leadership of Alexander J. Guchkoff, is regarded here as showing that the feel ing agalnet Professor Mllukoff is not con fined to reactionary fanatics like Vladi mir M. Purishkevich, but that It Is shared by the members of ths Constitutional Democratic party, which up to tho pres ent time hag maintained amicable rela tions with the leader of the Constitutional Democrats. In some quarters Professor Mllukoff Is advised to resign and seek vindication at the bands of his constitu ents, but this he has declined to do and he has announced his intention of insist ing that the report of the Commission on National Defense. -' at which strategic questions will be discussed, be read at a close session of the Douma. Upon American Initiative a party of Russian Liberal Journalists is being or ganized to visit the United States to con tinue the movement begun by Professor Milukoff. The oppositional press of St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kiev and Odessa has been invited to send delegates, but the Conservative newspapers have not been asked to participate. Large Land Deal.
