WE'LL BE ON PARADE.
THE LOCAL CLUB DIRECTORS DECIDE ON
THE OPENING DAY.

Local Opinion About Farrell-Mr. Lewis, OF
Pittsburg, Wins the Big Shoot Among
Experts of the Homestead Gun Club
General Sporting News Of the Day.
Let nobody think that Pittsburg is going
to be behind in the opening of the baseball
season here. Yesterday the directors of the
local club met and after the meeting Presi-
dent O'Neil made the following statement:
"On April %, the opening Of the National
League baseball season will be celebrated
in Piltsburg with an imposing parade. The
pennant winners of 1891, that is, the Pitts
burg team, will meet Anson's men, and we
will show them the city that will own the great
flag next fall. That is all have to say"
.Mr. O'Neil Is blessing to baseball and all
that part of humanity that takes any interest
in the national game, because he cheers every
body But the fact is we are to have the usual
parade celebration, and everybody will be in
line this time.
No expense will be spared to make the open
ing day a grand success. Al Scandrett, that
old and faithful person in local baseball history
has already figured on "great day" if the
weather is fine. Last year damped APs ardor,
but he is now like little schoolboy with new
picture book.
The best of accounts, privately of course, are
President ONeil, or any of the other officials,
probably don't know where they are, but THE
DISPATCH is informed that the boys are all
right.

His Fellow Diplomats See Him OF But He
Declines Dinner.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIE pIsPArcEl
WASHINGTON, April 7.-Baron Fava, the
withdrawn" Italian Minister to the United
States, shook the dust of Washington from
his feet to-day and departed for New York
whence he intends sailing on Saturday for
Italy. The fact that the Baron was to leave
town to-day was kepr secret from all but men,
bers of the diplomatic corps. The Minister was
this morning reported to be i'll in bed attended
by his friend DIR. Verdi, who has fur
nished SO much information to the public re-
garding the Italian trouble. As late as
o'clock this evening inquiries at the Baron's
late lodgings brought out the answer that the
venerable diplomat was still too i'll to leave the
house, and that it was altogether uncertain
when he would say goodby to Washington for
ever. Yet at that hour the Baron was reclining
in the stateroom of the limited train then in
the neighborhood OF Wilmington, Del.
Baron Fava announced TO his friends on
Sunday last his intention to leave the city to-
day. and the diplomatic corps begged him
to accept the usual compliment of farewell
dinner as a mark of their distinguished esteem.
The Baron. however, preferred to maintain
the seclusion which he has courted since
the international row ending in his recall
began and so declined the proffered honor.
His intimate friends and colleagues would not,
however, permit him to depart without some
evidence of their affection, and SO large
party went to the depot TO say goodby and wish
him bon voyage. Nearly all of the more prom
inent diplomats were in the station.

LABOR TROUBLES IN DETROIT.

Complications Will Probably Prevent q
Strike in the Building Trades.
DETROIT, April THE contracting carpen-

making nine hours the days work for the COM
ing season. The prospects for a strike among
the carpenters are not SO marked as at this
time last year.
There are not as many men disposed to go out
this year as last, but there is a movement on
foot which looks to the strike of all the build
etc, as well as the carpenters-which, if ar
ranged. may prove serious. but there is diff
culties in the way of the arrangement and
chief among these is the marked disunion of
the elements.

MUSICAL TASTE IN GERMANY,
The Universal Preference of the People is
for the Old Masters.


for the Old Masters.
New York SUM-
Musical taste and musical education is in
all classes of society in Germany of very
exalted order, and the thorough under
standing of the art is, without affectation or
pretense, all in favor of the serious, and, 1
might say, the scientific side. Setting Wae-
ner aside, the operas of Mozart are the
greatest favorites, while "Fidelio,'' the only
opera Beethoven ever wrote, is, with his
three magnificent overtures, always played
to full houses.
The old Emperor, however, encouraged
the representation of more modern works at
the Operahaus, which was in measure his
own, and he was seen frequently in his little
stage box when "Der Trompeter Won Sack
iugen" or even Carmen" was given; vet
the universal preference is for the old mas
tiers. The prices at the Royal Opera are
lower than at the private theaters, of which
within the last few years some very good
ones have sprung up. The same taste
Governs the dramatic stage.

KANSAS CITY, April 7.-Elections were held
in Kansas to-day in all cities of the first and

political significance, the results of the elec-
zion are regarded with considerable interest
for two reasons: First, because the Citi-

and is fighting all the old parties.
The other element in the election Ia the fact
that women, under the laws Of Kansas, are al

DETROIT April 7-Later returns from yester-

returns thus far received, IS so close that the
official count will probably be necessary to de-
termine the result in many counties. The general
feeling up to this evening is that the Republi-
cans elected their Supreme Court and Regents
of the State University candidates. and they
still claim their elections by upward of 5000
majority.
The Democrats on the contrary, say the
result is evidently SO close that they are not
warranted IN conceding the State, and assert
that later returns are running more in their
favor.
