THE BOSTON ORCHESTRA.

The last OF the concerts OF the Boston Orchestra
for this season took place last night in the Music
Hall 1t was interesting concert ana the pay
ing Of the orchestra was UP TO the high level that 1t
has taught US to expect from it. The PROGRAMME
consisted Of the prelude TO Die Meisiersnger'
Richard Strauss symphony in + minor. Liszts
orchestrated pianoforte etude with added march OF
barbaric color which. for want Of better ute.
he called "Mazeppa the same composers spanish
rhapsody in a new arrangement FOR p!anoiorte ana

solo part and Berlioz's "Rakoczy" march. The
Rhapsody was new to New York IN the form pre-

among local musicians In the original package 1t
has never enjoyed great popularity, and we doubt
whether 1t will be heard very often IN
It's Transformed shape though 1t has gained
greatly in effectiveness. In making the

TIE FLMIRA REPORT.
1T WAS NOT PRINTED UNTIL DISCUSSED AND
ADOPTED.

1T WAS NOT PRINTED UNTIL DISCUSSED AND
ADOPTED.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Under date OF March "a. Brooklyn corre-
spondent addressed you a letter on the subject OF
the MANAGEMENT of the State Reformatory at FL
mira, which you printed In your columns on
March &c
In the third obvious consideration" OF his letter.
your correspondent casts an unworthy imputation
upon the State Board of Charities. under which 1t
should not be allowed TO rest He writes THE con-
illusions Of NJ. Ltchhed submitted at full
meeting OF the board on Friday the 10th inst. On
Monday. the 10Th. printed pamphlet containing
the full report. signed by the president and secre-
tary Of the board. in every newspaper office In
New-York. obviously this pamphlet must have been
printed signatures and ALL several days before the
board met to consider its subject matter. This is
judicial procedure with vengeance!
The facts are as follows: Mr.. Ltchfied brought
his report printed in galley form to the meeting OF
the State Board of Charities on March 10. and It
presented and read that afternoon. Suggestions
for the recommendations of the board in the event
OF the approval by 1t OF the report afterward
submitted by In typewrting and manuscript;
and were considered and amended by majority OF
the board in prolonged night conference on that
day. The report approved, and the recon-
mendations as amended were unanimously adopted
at the session Of the board on March 16. The re-
and in galley form. typewrting and manuscript.
placed in the hands OF printer in the city OF
NewYork the evening of March IL. on the
afternoon OF March Il the printer delivered some
200 copies OF the report and recommendations COM
plete In pamphlet FORM and on the morning of the
18th instant the balance OF the order. the 18th being
Sunday. These pamphlets subsequently dis
tributed TO the Legislature and the press on the
night OF the 18th.
obviously" therefore. your correspondent should
not have made the statement quoted from his letter
as II could no be substantated by facts. Personal
abuse OF the writer Of the report. which is freely
INDUCED in. IS not argument, but evidences the
want of II. Mr.. Litchfield has done his work well.
Ills report Is based on the evidence and Will there
fore stand.
The unjustifiablc attack of your correspondent
upon the procedure Of the State Board of Charities
impeaches the bona hdes' OF his letter, which Is
braycly signed in full IA President OF the brooklyn
Ethical Association. Are not ethics founded upon
truth?
ask space In your columns for this letter in
justice to the State Board OF Charities. which num-
bers many friends among your readers.
