Text	The Police Commissioners received yesterday a committee of music hall proprietors and Messrs. Day and Dillingham, of the Polo Ground, with regard to the intent of the police to prohibit concerts where liquor is sold and baseball playing unless under a theatrical license. The music hall men said they had decided to form a protective association to contest the police interpretation of the Eden Musee decision of the court of Appeals, but asked for a conference with the officials before beginning operations. Messrs. Day and Dillingham say a theatrical license would prevent the sale of been on the ball grounds. The Commissioners replied that they were averse to giving any advice until they were advised by the Corporation counsel as to their course. Later in the day Superintendent Murray said that Mr. Lacombe would apply early in the week for a test case inunction against the concert hall proprietors and the lessees of the Polo Ground. According to Superintendent Murray this course is approved by the concert hall men and the Polo Ground lessees.
