Mr.. Sliyinski played to a large and gratified
audience Yesterday afternoon. fully confirming
the best that his work had indicated on tho
occasion Of his first appearance. lie was at
his best in the two enormously difficult
concertos OF Tschaikowsky and Sant-Saens.
They are both beautiful enough 60 excite
boundless enthusiasm In an artist who can
cope with their trying eNactions. and Mr..
Sliyinski seems to be made Of the stun which.
far from being discouraged By obstacles. is
reused by them to removed battles and fresh
victories. His power in passages where piano
and orchestra were crashing to,hssiDip was
immense, his fingers and arms apparently be-
ing made OF steel instead Of flesh and blood
and bone and muscle.
His concentration Of force is extraordinary.
He never pounds or thrashes the lntrumsnt.
butibrings tremendous climaxes with pure.
clear tone that is yet brilliant and must
cal. as well as grand and intense.

has done so much so admirably will

ssv.rsl hundred excited Italians caused a
small riot in the Madison Square Garden last
evening. and but for the prompt action OF
three or four policemen serious trouble would
have resulted. The cause of tho disturbance
was the referees decision in the final battle OF
what was called Tho International Mounted
Broadsword Combats." in which the Italian
calling himself Shevaller Greco and Duncan
c. Ross. the wel-known wrestler, were partici-
pants.

struck blow in the first four rounds. the ret-
cree decided no bout each time. much TO the
Disgust OF the Italians aud greatly to the
amusement OF the other spectators. Ross
then changed his horse. and in the next two
rounds planted some effective blows and re-
ceived the decision each time.
The Italians became very angry. and some
OF them proposed killing the referee. They
became camer when he gave Greco the decl-
sion in the third bout. But yell Of furious
rage went uD when he decided that the next
round was no bout. As though by precon-
certed signal the Italians present sprang from
the balconies. leaped out OF the boxes. slid
down the pillars. and made a dash for the
arena.
Ina second the ring was filled with four or
five hundred excited men, The policemen In
charge made dash at the crowd. and after
four or Ave minutes Of hot fighting. succeeded
in driving Thorn out Of the ring. Greco. in tho
mean time had been torn from his horse and
dragged away by his friends. The manage
