LIONS ESCAPE CAUSE PANIC IN PLAYHOUSE

Animals Break Out of Cages and Bound Into Audience—Attack People In Paths.

NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—Labelle Andre, tamer of the troup of six lions which yesterday escaped from their cage on the stage of an Eighty-sixth street vaudeville theatre and caused a panic in the audience and the street outside, to which one of the animals found her way, Carl A, Turnquist, a showman, and George Hamilton, a booking agent, were discharged when arraigned in police court today on charges of manslaughter.

They were arrested yesterday aft'jr several persons had been clawed, a policeman wounded by a bullet and one of the lions had been killed. The magistrate said he could find no law that would justify the defendants being held on the charge of manslaughter, as none of the persons clawed by the lions was seriously hurt.

One lioness, Alice, the largest of the pack, Escaped into eC crowded street. Policemen pursued her into the hallway of a nearby apartment house, and ill shooting at her probably fatally wounded a companion, Sergeant Daniel Glenn. Two other officers were elight-

ly wounded by the claws of the beast in a battle at close range. At sight of the lions hundreds of persons in the theater fled, screaming, to the exits. Mothers, delayed by gathering up their children, crowded into corners and places of supposed safety. Scores .fainted and many, numbed by the sight of the animals, sat transfixed In their seats.

With the exception of Alice, none of the beasts displayed great ferocity. A few persons who got into their paths were scratched, but none of them were seriously tiurt.

SMTV BOARD TO REORGANIZE

Continued from Page One.

"The mayor has had my resignation for some time. There have been so many matters devoUve upon the board that I could not give the work the time and could not attend the numerous special meetings which arose from time to time to consider emergency matters. There waq much work to do. In fact, I found that my inability to attend to many of these details was hampering the mayor and embarrassing him in his administration, and the only fair thing I could do was to make way for someone who can devote more time to the work. Our relations have been cordial. Mr. Roberts has my best Avishes for the success of his administration. I accepted the position with the understanding that I could retire at the end of the year. The end of the year is here, and the mayor Is simply keeping his agreement with me. Mr. Roberts has had my resignation sorne time."..^ ?j "sn
