A strike of a novel character and in an I'M
usual place occurred in New York on Thurs
day. large audience filled Trinity church to
hear the rehearsal of the Easter music, which,
according to the annual custom, was to be rem
dered by large orchestra in addition TO the
regular choir. The grandest effects of sacred
music to be heard anywhere in this country are
produced at the Trinity Easter service, and the
rehearsal is always sure to have a large and an
preciatiye audience. On Thursday the rehearsal
was 10 have begun at four O'Clock, and long be-
fore that hour the church was filed. The music
was distributed, the orchestra had filed the or.
gan loft, the organists had taken their places,
and the opening strains of the overture had
sounded, when sudden silence followed, which
was broken, after a long interval by one of the
clergy, who announced that, owing TO the
action of the orchestra, the rehearsal
would be postponed. No further infor-
nation could the audience get, and they were
obliged to dispense, with their curiosity as well
as their musical taste unqualified 1t transpired
aiterward that the orchestra had been previously
employed at a concert given for some charitable
purpose, and conducted by one of the organists
of Trinity. The concert was pecuniary failure,
and the musicians received only half their pay.
In revenge for this, or in the hope of extorting
the amount, the secretary of the musical protec-
tive union, TO which the performers belonged,
directed them not to play until their old account
was settled. This stopped the rehearsal, but an.
other orchestra has been engaged, and the
Easter music will be performed as usual to-mor-
row.
