MAY BE SUMMER THEATER.

Midland Building Agent Says Owners
Considering Possibility.

A feeler has been thrown out for a roof garden for the Midland hotel. While admitting that an inquiry had been made, the agent of the building yesterday declined to say whether it had come form a local or a foreign manager.

"In changing the Midland block from a hotel to an office building," said he, "it was necessary to put the banquet hall on the top floor in shape for offices. This calls for an intervening story and for considerable steel work. That steel work will be strong enough to carry a summer theatre up there. If the plan had the right sort of backing a theater would be built there, I am sure."
