1t almost seemed as if half the popula-
ticn of San Francisco had determined to
judge Of the rival merits of Court Director
Fritz Scheel and Conductor Sousa. so im-
mense was the attendance at the grand
combination concert yesterday evening.
Before o'clock it was evident that the
Vienna Prater was to lose consiGera Bile
quantity of money, for hundreds of dollars
were being turned away from tine box-office.
Soon even tickets were refused at the door
as there was not even standing room left.
Even after the concert commenced the
huge audience did not settle down for some
numbers.
People were heard Offering fabulous
sums to be slowed away in any hole or
corner, and the walters and ushers assured
them, almost with tears in their eyes, that
untold gold could not purchase chair or
even a table to sit upon. for everything in
Franz Joseph Hall that could be used as a
seat had been appropriated half an hour
before.
II is as well to state at once that any
question of who is the more popular con-
ductor was not even broached yesterday
evening. The audience was wildly en-
lhusiastic in it's demonstrations of admira-
tion for both musicians. All the remarks
that conld be overheard in the crowd
tended to The glorifcsfion Of both wisld-
ers of the baton. People declared that

Schmidt ordered the waiter away. and
Moths called the cook an opprobious cpl
thet.
The chef resented the imputation upon
his honor by throwing the mass of batter
in the face of the waiter. Then Moths
caught up a heavy plate and hurled it at
the cook with all his angry force. The
plate was broken and so was Schmidts s
scalp. The ambulance was summoned,
ana the injured man was taken TO the
Emergency Hospital.
Two Jagged wounds over each ear
caused him intense pain. One confusion
had severed an artery from which blood
flowed profusely. His face and head were
red with this fluid, and cry Of "MurderV
was passed about the grounds.
When the horrible cry reached the ears
of Moths he did not wait to serve the un-
cooked batter-cakes which he had received
from the cook bet hastily fed, leaving his
apron and his barber-chair behind.
Dr. Fraser and DR.. KGorb dressed the
wounds of the cook, whose head was
further decorated with fourteen stitches.
After few hours he was able 10 leave the
hospital. He vows vengeance on the
waiter, but declined to swear out war
rant for his arrest, preferrlng a personal
retaliation for his wounds.

All the Turks were soon apprised of this

The overture to "Tannhauser," by the
combined bands under the baton Of Fritz
Scheel, was one of the most interesting
events of the evening. The volume of
sound in the enSemb bles was magnfied, and
some of the reed effects were absolutely
thrilling, though the brass, in the passages
where the trombones carried the theme,
somewhat oyerpowered the beautiful ac-
compartment. 1t was well worth visiting
the concert to hear that overture alone,
however. and the impression it created
was profound. Another magnificent CON-
