MAY0RLESS CITY RUNS ON.

New York city has no Mayor. It
hasn't bad one since early yesterday
I afternoon It will have none until Mon

Hy deprivation the city Is finding out. So
far nothing has happened that a Mayor
could avert.
John Purroy Mltchel Is at Plnttsburg.
to stay until September I. Bo much for
him Oaorg McAlieny left New York
at II 'id o'clock yesterday afternoon and
ceased to be acting Mayor when a New
York Central train shot him across, the
city line on his way to a Lake ( leorge
vacation. We shan't Ma hlin again until
ptembar l
Tin. charter says that in the absence
of the Minor and the President of the
Hoard of Aldermen the noting Mayor
hall be tho Aldermanlc vice-chairman.
That means Henry II. Curran. Hut Mr
Curran is u lance corporal up at the
Plattaburg school of preparedness Cer

Worry about City affairs thought that
Corporal Curran would appear here yes
terday to prevont an interregnum Ac
cording to tlic latest word, however, he
will not come back until Monday.
The framsrs of the charier provided

hut went no further. Nobody can be
Mayor Winn the thro men mentioned

point, has occurred
The town was Mayorless once before
when for u few hours ( ieorge II.
McClellan. Patrick F. MoQowgfl and
Little Tim Sullivan were away at the

Tlie fact Is that there la not much for
a Mayor lo do hart at present. All the

Julian Eltlnge'a appearance In a new
play Is always an event of Interest. Last
night ha made bis debut thla season
at the Cohan Theatre after an absence
from Broadway of a conxlderable period,
appearing In a three act farce called
'Vousln Lucy," which was given a musi
cal comedy flavor by a description on
the programme calling It a comedy with
music, crediting the book to Charles
Klein and the musi.- to the Inevitable Init
melodious Jerome Kern.
For the admirers of Mr K'.eln and
there are many- a certain sentimental
Interest attaches to the place because It
was hie last completed work, the manu
script having boan delivered to A. H. I
Woods, Its producer. Just previous to the
nlavwriM' .lent, in th. , h
Lusltanla last May.
The erstwhile "Fascinating Widow"
and the "Crinoline Ulrl" was seen again
last night In one of his now familiar
female Impersonntlona. He was sup
ported by a compsny which Included
Iallas Welford. Leo Donnelly. Austin
Webb, Marie Chambers. Mark Smith,
James Hudd. Jane Oaker, Ned Burton.
Oliver Tell. Clalrborne Foster. Edith
Hanbury, Mrs. Stuart Itobson, J. W
Ashley, Henry Friend and Frank

"Cousin Lucy" proved a delectable
bit nf half comedy, half farce, with a
substantial amount of Interpolated and
syncopated music thrown In for good
measure. Its locle la New York city
and its scenes are laid In the apartment
of one OrrnM J.icksob and In a fashion- '

THE SUN, SATURDAY, AUGUST 28, 1915.
I Jar Arson, her supposed cousin, a horn re
port has killed In a railroad accident.
"Cousin Lucy," however, Is none other
than Jn kton himself, a atlsVi of many

own reported dcrflaa and who aaautncH a

'Lucy" bei omes a partner In a fashlon-

The old debts, the palpable ghosts of
the old amours and the suspicious In
surance people begin to distress "Cousin
Lucy" with Insistence, but not until
Cupid has touched the masculine heart
that exists under the feminine flnery.
And so things run merrily on to the
denouement when "Lucy" becomes him
self again and all's well behind tha
footlights.
The syncopated portion of "Cousin
Lucy" proved one Of the lefreshlng fea

PLAN DRASTIC ACTION
ON THEATRE TICKETS
MftnageM Bold Another Meet-
ng Speculation Mny He
Wiped Out.
Anothtr meet'ng of thea'rl al man
criminate passes. The meeting was In j
session nearly two hours and at the close
il was announced that no statement
would be given out.
It was learned, however, that the
question under discussion yesterday was
" "'"'c o.u.e issii l" J
bel.eved. It concerned selling a ma.
Jorlty of the tickets direct from the box
offlca and doing away tnUrol) with ail
forms of ticket speculating If the
present Intentions of the managers are
carried out the sidewalk speculator In
theatre seats will be eliminated. It was
said.
Some trouble developed yesterday about
getting all of the managers to agree on
a oannua propaauion, rriotion among
the managers was denied, however, and
although no details were given out offi
cially It was authoritatively stated that
every Indication now pnrnts to a com
plete settlement Another meeting will
be held next week.
In addition to limiting lh advance
pries on ticket sold through the hotel
agencies to 50 cents and eliminating the
ut rate coupon the managers, in order
that none of them may be tempted to,
'disobey the rule, have davlted a lygtam
of penuitlc. and th.s is one of the things.
It Is said, which Is causing u delay In
the proceedings.
