ANSWER TO CORRESPONDENT.
"Excess Profits."—l. Yes, travelling companies have to pay taxes oil any profits which may oventuate during a New Zealand tour. The artists are also taxed on their individual earnings in New Zealand. 2. The gallery, wo are informed, was filled on Saturday night before 7.15 o'clock, and that no tickets were sold for that portion of the theatre after that time. The statement that 4s. was charged for standing room in the stalls on Saturday or any other night is contradicted by the management. The fact that there are no late trains to the suburbs on week nights naturally creates a larger demand for seats on Saturday nights, but on nearly every other evening there are, as the council inspector will prove, invariably an abundance of empty seats.
