your body and sent to this company on May IA,
from which we quote: 1.-The city has notified
or will notify bidders on the work
that the right 10 occupy said track
will be assured them" This company
still maintains that the city has no right TO
notify bidders for the grading OF Broadway that
they may occupy the tracks of the Union Trunk
line. The corporation counsel states the matter
correctly when he says shat the city should
proceed to grade Broadway soon as an ordi-
nance Is passed for the purpose, and 10 do the
work in such a manner as will Interfere as little
rs possible with the running OF cars on the
street. II. however the grading cannot be done
without interfering with the use OF the railway
excepting by extraordinary measures involving
excessive costs, then the convenience OF the
railroad company must yield to that of the
CITY,. And this right this company admitted IN
its communication OF May 10. but did not
threaten any resistance or action OF any KIND,
nor did it threaten to arrest persons grading the
street on authority of ths city, but merely re-
ferred TO section 6. of ordinance 14Il, and called
attention to the exact language contained in
said section.
This company has built and construcsed one
of the most extensive lines of street railways in
this city, along and through the mot desirable
ana thickiy populated sections OF this city.
Beautiful and magnificent residences have
been built along said lines since the tonstruc-
tio!i Va bdUtc, the OWDerS DuiluiuS tne sdlLe DE-
lieving that this company would furnish them
unrestricted transportation facilities, which
We always have furnished from the commence
ment and propose to maintain, unless it is found
impossible to grade streets without stopping
this company's cars and making the citizens
walk. The company knows that It is possible
to grade the streets in question without the least
interference with the operation of its cars, as,
among the bids which your body received for
the grading of Broadway, was one, and that at
very low price, from thoroughly responsible
parties who propose TO grade said street without
interfering with public travel.
Hoping that you will give this communica-
ton the same prominence in the daily papers
that you did with the opinion OF the corpora
ton counsel.
No action was taken but both letters

Seattle's Musical Festival.

The idea of the devotion of one week in
each fifty-two to a series of classical con-
certs originated in Cincinnati, Boston and
Chicago. Properly enough, the project that
these cities formulated and ever afterward
successfully executed has been adapted by
nearly all the great cities of the country.
Once upon time and it has not been so
long ago, Cincinnati was the Mecca to
which every year journeyed people
of musical culture. They came from
East, North, South and West. They
came because Cincinnati, ever lead
ing the way in culture, was the first
city to successfully-and we use the
word in both its artistic and financial
sense-carry out series of concerts.
bringing. as it has, to Music hall the best
orchestra in the country and the greatest
soloists of the world. The chorus, made
up of Cincinnati ladies and gentlemen,
has always been conscientious, capable
and Woodworking. Last night the first
concert of the 1872 May festival of Cincin-
natl was performed. Its success was in
Simultaneous. The audience was typical of
Cincinnati's culture. The concert was ex-
cellent. The work of the chorus was COM
mendable, both in volume of tone and in
attack. The orchestral effects were all that
the most critical ear could demand. Cincin-
natl feels proud of its May festivals and of
the ladies and gentlemen whose co-opera-
ton alone make it possible to render them
artistic successes. The Cincinnati soloists
were in fine form at last nights concert,
while the chorus supported them SUI
perbly. Cincinnati will, rs it has in the
past, continue in the future to lead the
other cities of the country in music as it
has in many other things. In our news
columns will be found thorough de-
scription of all the details of the inaugural
concert. Let Seattle turn out and well
come these great artists in the largest
musical feast on this Coast at Armony

spent in listening to his performances He
has the ease and facility of ripe expert
ence. Miss Morgan's harp playing was
the most charming feature of the concert.
She has improved very decidedly within
the last year or two and, while she is as
graceful and feminine as ever, now strikes
her instrument with force and assurance
That she formerly did not possess. The
harp is beautiful instrument to look at
upon the stage, and q woman's hands are
never so pretty as when grasping it's
strings with the ever-changing positions
which the execution necessitates. SO few
persons choose the harp as solo iastrV-
ment that it gains an added interest from
being rarely heard.-New York Sun.

of rare sweetness and power, which shows
she has received training from the best

The Great Northern Express Company
is opening quite traffic in carrying Lake
Washington Strawberries TO the British

sent to Vancouver on Thursday. Most of
the berries are brought across Lake Wash

As the fruit in British Columbia is a

market has been supplied with California
fruit by way of Victoria, but the Great
