BUYS PARTNER'S INTEREST
KEATING & FLOOD NOW SOLE
OWNERS OF LYRIC THEATER.
Thomas W. 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.
