Lespectfully yours, PUSIMASO SALVIN KEENE'S REAPPEARANCE. Anengagement will be commenced to-mor- row evening at tho Grand Opern-House by Thomas W, Keene, the tragedian, who, since he mude his début ns a star in this city on tho 4th of October last, bas become a conspicuous figure in the theatrical world. e made his début here under,ns it turncd out, peculiurly favorable circumstances. In Boston a few mouths before that date he had appeared as Richand' TIL, and the unusually strong indorsement given the persouation by the public and by the press of that city paved the way for his advent in Chicn- #o. Atono theatre McCullough and at another an engagement upon the same might on which Keenc came before the public atthe Grand. The appearance of two recog- nized tragic stars-and oue who sought to reach thosame plane in the eity at one time nuturally enough stirred pubtic curiosity and invited com- parison. It was a bold step on the part of Keene's management, and one surrounded with 1 good denl of danger, for, bad Keene not shown during that week in the fine of characters he portrayed either the possession of acting quali- ticp thut struck the popular fancy or the capa- bility to stand the comparison instituted by the public, he wonid bave dropped from his pedestal like lead, and perhaps that would have been the cndof bim ns far s starring was concerned. ile was financinlly successful, not only bere, but through the country, ns no tragedian has ever been during bis first season. There ean be no doubt that not a little of Keene's success hus been due 10 the manner in which Mr. W. It. Havden has managed his star. Lverything that minagerial skill could do has been done, but it should be remembered that ns shrewd theatrical men_as Mr. Hayden have in the past found that *Shakspeare spelt bank- “The patrons of the druma,” says. 3 5. Murdoch {n a chapter devoted to the advent of Edmund Kenn in_England, *had become npathetic in their feclings. while their tustes were toned down to the sombre coloring of sobriety and dignity which was then the pre- vuillng style at Jeast among the genticmen of the suige.

Mal- lory, the defendant. has filed hislauswer,in which he admits the making of the contract set forth in Mr. Mackaye's complaint ‘and denies that the plaintifthas fully or faitnfully performed jts stipulation. He nileges“ upon informatiop and belief that prior to: the contract heing made Mr. Mackaye (had written 'n play called ‘*Cast Adrift, ‘and bhnd sold the same, “Wwith all his (rights and Interests therein/to Dion Bouciemult for $1500, and that ‘while negotisting the comtrnct Mr. Mackaye told bim he had sold only ane-half intercst- in the play to Mr. Boncicault. After signing the con- tract {t was found that the play wasin anim- perfect condiuon and unfit for representation, and Mr. Mallory instructed Mr. Mackaye to re- write and remodel it, which was done, and the title was chaneed to *An Iron Will' It was played outside of New York City by a company employed Ly Mr. Mallory, but of which Mr. Mackaye was the manager, & position given Lim In accordance with the terms of their con- tract. The production of the play, owing main- Iy to its defeets, resulted fu u Inrge pecunfary loss to ir. Mallory, and, with a view of renovat- ing the play und ‘at the same time securing to bimself the entire ownership of it, he instructed Mr. Mackave to offer Mr. Boucicault §1,500 for ull nis rights and interests in the play, which offer was mado and accepted, and the money was subsequeutly paid to Mr. Boucicanlt. He then Instructed Mr. Mucknye to ngain re- model it, and after this was done it was given the name of *Hazel Kirke.' 'Mr. Mallory ad- mitzed that *Huzel Kirke' was copyrighted by Mr. Mackaye; not, as alleged, shortly after tho mnkiog of the contract. but carly in July, 1880, aud thut the copyright was duly assigned to him durfog that month by Mr. Muckaye. As to'the double stage, Mr. Mackare first suggested the aea; but Mr. Mallory, through employing skilled engineers, stage machinists, und mechanics, car- ried out the fden, and guve to it delinit shape, as well as made it effcctive aud practicable; thac he subsequently procured a patent for it, which was issued fn the nnme of Mr. Mackaye, us in- ventor, according to the contritet; and that the patent was duly assigned by the lust-named to Mr. Mallory, whose own absolute and exclusive |, proverty It nowis. He furthor states that ho us expended large sums of money in fitting up the Madison Square Theatre, in constructing tho doublesture, in_preparing scenery and proper- tics, und in_mafutaining o second company to play *Huzel Kirke' throughout tho country, and denies the statement i the complaint thus he bad not Invested so much as $80,030 in these cuterpriscs. but, on tho contrary, he has expended an mmount greatly exceeding that sum.’ By tho terms of the contract, Mr. Mallory claims, Mr. Mackaye was catitled to receive. only $100 a week. The defendant conceded thathe “permitted Mr. Mackaye's name, at his request, to appenr as maouager in the playbills, udvertisemonts, ete., but that e never guve hitn authority orright to act as man- nger with all the privileges and functions some- tiines nppertaining to that position, or as par- ticulirly set forth in the complaint, but, on the contrary, he has always reserved to himself the general powers of the manager of the thoatre, and that the real manugewmnent is under his ab- solute direction, Mr. Mackaye belnz employed simply to assist him in the discharge of those duties. e further denies that George S. Mal- lory, tho codefendant muned in the complaint, has any interest in the theatra or ever bad any interest in it, and that there Is no vecessity of his being made a defendunt to this action. He claims that be is tho sole proprictor of the Mad- ‘ls{?"ks uare Theatre und of the drama of *Hazel ol “FRESH, THE AMERICAN.” The other duy we mentioned the fact that, ac- cording to New York oplnion, John T. Ruymond bad struck anotier type of churacter likely to prove as popular as his Col. Scllers. Ho needed unew piece indeed, and he has tried very hard to get one during the past two years. Ferdinand Nervy Fresh is Ruymond's:new character, and the Tribune says it “affords opportunites nd- mirubly enlculuted to bring out his peculinr drcliery. The part is chivalrous, symputhetie, and at the sume time breezy and frollesome. He has many telling specches to utter, which derive theirforce from well-contrived contrasts of the characterund from happy equivoque.” The Trib- une thinks that *us o vehicle ot bumor and drotl eccentricity this is the best part Mr. Raymond has acquired since he captured the public as Col. Sellers, and he.can make it quiteaspopular.”™ The Ierald prints the scheme of the play as follows: *“Mr. Ferdinand Nervy Fresh, a very successful member of the New York Stock Board, goes to Europe and meets Erema Almi, & doughter of Achmet Pacha, chief officer of the ex-Khedive of Egypt, the youny lndy baving been for years in Puriy to be edueated. He also meets Flora, Marchesa Della Floredla, who, having disposed of three rich jold husbands, is youny aud lively enough to want another husband—a young man. She is determined to wmarry Fresh, and, ng he docs not seem entirely willing, she conspires witha Hebrew banker to have the Awmerican ruinod utthe mumbling tablo at Nice her wealth may muke bher more attractive to bim. Instend of beung broken Fresh breaks the bunk, and Just us the Marchesn is about 10 send Erema back to her father, Freslt uppears aud claims the young woman his wife. they hav- ing been privately married a day beforo by an American clergyman at Nice. Such g marriage not being lezal in Franee, the couplo are sepue- ated by Mehomet Al an gyptian ofticer to whom she hag been promised by ber father, aud who, with Achmet, had nccompanied the ex- Khedive to Naples, Freghsearches fruitlesly for the girl, but tinally discovera her in dchmt's Neapolitan garden,” which is overlooked by tho JMarchesa’s “windows. ichmet comes to the Marchesa’s apartments to sell the ludy some Jewels that bis impecunious master bad “put on e market. and there meets Fresh, who, describ- ing himself as a stockbroker, is supposed by the -0ld gentleman to Le a dealer In live stock—of which Egyptinns know but one variety—slaves. Fresh encourages the misunderstanding, and actually offers to sell his father-in-lnw the Mar- chesa as a desirable addition to Ackmet’s harem. Invited to Ackimct’s house to consummate tho bargain, the American meets several of his mothers-in-law, ull of whom flirt most afTe donately with him. His real character is dis covered, hut he escapes in an immense trun! which is 5upposed to’ contain a_present of linen 10 Erema. In the same close quarters there e capes with him Baron Alezis Hoschovileh, a Rus- an_oflicer, who has_made his way into the sacred retrest in search of the Turko-Egyptinn ofticer who killed tho Buron’s brother at Ulevna. The Baron bus but 1wo passions—to avenge his brother and marry the March-sa.
