DIVIDE MUsIN CONCERT.

First OF Series of Farewell Perform
ances at the Columbia.
OXIDE Musin has descended so suddenly
upon San Francisco that his friends had
hardly time to rally In great force at the
first of series of three concerts which
the violin virtuoso gave yesterday after
noon at the Columbia Theater. Musin,
accompanied by his wife, Anna, Louise
Musin, and by the pianist, Eduard Scharf,
is on his way round the world, and as he
sails shortly for Japan his present ap-
pearances will be his last in this City for
some years to come.
The programme yesterday afternoon
was an interesting and weil-chosen one.
Musins share in it opened with suite for
violin by f. Ries, which he played with
the grace, expression and virtuosity of
true artist, though his hands have lost
some OF the cunning they possessed four
years ago. There was slight tendency
to be little out of tune here and there,
and the fire and brilliancy that used to
distinguish Musin were not quite so con-
spicuous. With a violinist. however, as
with his violin, climate and surrounding
conditions have to be taken into account.
The day was damp and Musin had just ar
rived from tedious journey into the inte-

FELL DOWN THE SHAFT
Probable Fatal Accident to "BOb," the
Dispenser of Cards OF the

Sterling lronside, known to racing men
as Bob" met with an accident last even
ing that may prove fatal. He sells the
racing cards on the streets and in the
hotels of the next days events and last
evening he went as usual to the second
story of the Bancroft building on First and
Market streets for his supply.
No one saw the accident, but few min
utes after he left with his bundle of cards
he was found bleeding and insensible at
the bottom of the elevator shaft with the
elevator on top of him. 1t is supposed
that the elevator had been on the fiat
above and while bob" was hauling on
the rope to bring it down to where he was
standing so that he could descend in it he
took fit and fell down the shaft, still
clutching the rope and pulling the elevator
down. His friends say that he was subject
to fits.
He was taken to the Receiving Hospital,
where DIR. Stice found that his skull was
fractured and his right leg broken in two
places.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-12-05

rior of the State. No doubt o-day he and
his violin will have recovered their wonted
tone and brilliancy.
Nothing could have been more delight
full than the manner in which the virtuoso
played the "Prize Song" from the "Meis-
tersinger,' and his virtuosity in Wieniaw
skis Souvenir de Moscow" quitel brought
down the house. Among the encores he
was compelled to give during the course
of the concert Musin played an air by ]. S.
Bach, arranged for the violin and orches-
ira by Wilhelmj. The Columbia orehes-
ira, conducted by Eugene Schmitz, accom-
panied this number well and sympathetic
cally.
Annie Louise Musin warbled charmingly
as OF yore. She showed her vocal agility
and colorature, singing in 'Sing, Sweet
Bird" Jomelli's la Marchande d'Ois-
eaux," and other arias. Eduard Scharf is
an accompanies much to be desired; he is
never aggressive and always subordinates
himself to the soloist. In his own solos he
was most at home with List, indeed,
his playing of the Second Hungarian
Rhapsody" left little, if anything, to be
desired. His rendering of the Chopin
nocturne, on the other hand, was almost
as painfully conscientious as graduating
exercise.
The second concert of the Musin series
takes place this afternoon at 2:30 at the
Columbia Theater.

MANAGER SHEEHAN TALKS,
He Tells Upon What Conditions
He Will Tender His
Resignation.
Says the Money in the Trust Com.
pany's Vaults Should Be
Distributed.

''All there is about it," said General
John f. Sheehan. manager Of the Peoples
Home Savings Bank,'in liquidation, yes
terday, sis that if something is not done
to relieve the wants of these poor people
very soon will throw up the position.
"When do l intend to resign?" con-
tinued the general, repeating a question.
THAT is contingent upon what will be
done. yesterday afternoon / met one of the
depositors at the Office of the Bank Commits
sioners and told him that was becoming
very tired of hearing the complaints of
hundreds Of poor people every week, peo-
pie in need of their money; that the posi-
ton was becoming very unpleasant and
unless something was done to help these
people out would certainly resign.
eff it had been in my power / would
have last September distributed the $50, 900
or $50, 900 now held for the depositors by
the California Safe Deposit and Trust
Company. That would have been some
help to them.
1.-THE assertion of some one at the meet
ing of depositors last night" said the
manager THAT it would involve consid-
cradle expense to disburse that money is
nonsense. 1t would not render any adj
ditional expense. 1t would simply mean
extra work for Mr.. Palmer and myself for
about two weeks in preparing the checks.
THAT meeting helu last night is not one
that was attended by the class of people
who come here with tears in their ewes and
plead for their money. One half or more
of the depositors no longer have any inter
est in the bank affairs, as they have
assigned their claims to the Trust Com
pany, and it is to that institution that they
must look to for what they will receive"
The manager declared that in his opinion
the creditors OF the bank, if times i'm prove,
VIII realize over So cents on the 81, possibly
% cents, He was of the opinion that by
careful management and reasonable i'm
provement in values, 20 cents ought to be
obtained for the depositors. AS to the
proposed reduction of expenses, the
manager said the affairs of the bank can
not be run cheaper than thew are now.
