certs.
The ChiclSering Grand won general admira-
tion ut Robert Goldbeck's performance of his
concerto ON Thursday evening, and Its mag
niflcent qualities were again warmly praised
by musicians at Miss Bloomfield pefformance
on Friday night. The perfect purity of its in
tonation and exquisite singing power was such
as to satisfy the most eNactng demands ofthe
artistic, to whose every shade of intellectual and
sympathetic expression IL responded with
musical emotion, and took on every tone-color
demanded by the rich harmonic phrases of
Rubinstein's great concerto, In which Miss
Bloomfield created genuine furor.
The Chickerng Grand on this occasion reit-
supremacy In pianoiorte manufacture by dis
playing every quality that raises the construc-
tion of the piano into the realm of high art.
The perfection of Its action, the mathemati-
cal accuracy of the entire scale, Its wealth of
full, melodous, and resonant tone, such as has
seldom been heard in our concert halls, created
deep impression. Moreover, the large, liquid,
and harmonious roundness OF Its notes, whether
in the heaviest fortissmo or the most whis-
pering planissimo passage, displaying every
shade OF contrast In musical expression and
peaing brilliantly In full, sonorous tone above
the orchestra whenever the score demaIvtedit its
utteT6nce, excited the eulogiums of thy most
critical In vast audience composed entirely
of musicians. d II -
The instrument was a noble specimen bf the
product of the pioneer house of Chickering q

THE TOBACCO TARIFF.
A Movement to Increase the Duty on the
Finer Grades of the Weed.

A Movement to Increase the Duty on the
Finer Grades of the Weed.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 81. Several Con-
gressmen representing tobacco-growing dis
tricts say that there will be an effort to in
crease the tariff ON all grades of fine leaf to-
baceo used for cigar wrappers. The move
ment is especially directed against Suma.
ira tobacco, which, while of fine texture
and good color is of poor flavor, and eonse-
quently is SO cheap as to seriously injure
the interests of the growers of American
tobacco which is used for wrappers. 1t
was thought that an effectual protective
duty had been enacted in the second
section of the Tariff act of March
g. 1888. The object of this legislation
was to increase the duty on the light SUI
matra tobacco leaves, and to leave the duty
on the heavier Cuban leaves at thirty-five
cents. But there is a reciprocity treaty
with Holland which contains the
most favored nation clause, and the
Dutch dealers, with their American
allies, have beeu able to over
come the law. This plan has been to
put into each bale light Sumatra wrap
pers and heavier laaf-tobacco in such pro-
portion as TO Dr. the average or leaves to
the pound in the D, le near one hundred.
In this way Slmatra tobacco is i'm
ported at the lowest rate of duty
-thirty-five cents per pound - and
is entering into active COMPETE
ton with the tobacco-growers here. The
American growers depend for their profits
mainly upon the wrapping tobacco and in
order to secure more effectual protection
they propose to combine to secure an in
crease of duty on all foreign tobacco which
is used as wrappers to one dollar per
pound
