Gal. $50,000 CHECK CHANGES HARPS FAsras IT o compaavr juts popttls. Hoia or In the Chamber of Commerce building at 11 o'clock this morning, John W. Con sldlne handed Attorney Ralph Dunl way a certified check for 160.000 and re ceived In return- a piece of paper from Cordray and Russell, representing ths ownership of Cordrays theatre. This closed a deal that has been pending for several weeks by which Sullivan and Consldlne. the Seattle theatrical man agers, come Into possession of Port land's popular borne of melodrama a member of the Stair and Havlln syndi cate to convert It Into a vaudeville house. It means the dissolution of the part nership which has aststed between John F. Cordray and William M. Russell as Joint owners of Cordray s for two years. Mr. Russell will devote all of his time to his Seattle Interests and Mr. Cordray, In whose name ths contract with Stair and Havlln exists, wiU took for a new place In which to present ths same class of attractions which st present occupy the transferred playhouse. The .new owners will take possession on Novem ber 14 and will reopen it in vaudeville, after making soma improvements, on November Zl. There has been no defi nite decision as to the prices of admis sion. Possibly a higher class of at tractions thai! Is usual here will be se cured and the admission boosted to IS cents, but more likely the regular dime vaudeville, over which Portland haf mod. will be the policy. The price paid by Sullivan and Con sldlne Is a large one, and It may take many years to got the $80,000 back. The bill of sale doea not Include the ground, of course, that piece of realty being worth probably $180,000. The situation which confronts Mr. Cordray, whose contract to provide a home for the Stair and Havlln attrac tions endures for three years mora, is most interesting. Will it be the Em pire? Mr. Cordray declares to the con trary. He says he will make no bid for that house. The Columbia cannot be had. according to Manager Baker's em phatic declaration this morning. 'We are too well satisfied with the business up there," said he. "The Columbia is out of the question. Keating and Flood have a signed lease on the Baker for 10 months and it Is hardly likely, after the great start they have made, that those managers would relinquish thst lease to Cordray. But Mr. Cordray must have a house Into which he can put the Stair and Hav lln shows. Moreover, he must have It by November 14. And theatres are not built in a fortnight. Manager Cordray maintains absolute silence on this sub ject. Something unexpected may bs looked for. An Extraordinary Offer.
