The little bulls OF the islands are very

reliable than sore-backed horses. The bull
carts are used for freighting purposes

found it necessary to discard the horses
and engage a bull cart in order to reach

NOT PARTY TO MERGER.
Mr.. Fish Says Illinois Central Is Used
for Stock Jobbing.

CHICAGO. Aug. 30.-Tn the discussion
of the uses to which the new capital
of the Illinois Central was to be put
President stuyvesant Eish was asked:
"Will any important additions be
made to the Illinois Central SYSTEM"
None are contemplated, he said
except some spurs in Mississippi. We
do not intend to build a new line to St.
Paul. Our traffic and trackage ar
rangements with the Minneapolis and
St. Louis Company are satisfactory.
II can say emphatically that under nc
circumstances will the Illinois Central
be a party TO any big combination or
merger scheme. For the reason that
the stock is so widely distributed, nc
large blocks being held by few per-
sons, the control of the company cannot
be secured in the stock market. We
propose to run the Illinois Central in
dependently and operate it for what is
in the traffic. not for stock jobbing pur-

CHORUS SINGERS ACT

Stranded Girls Unexpectedly Pick Up a

DENVER. Aug. 3O-Two stranded
chorus singers Of the defunct Manhat-

days pay at The court house by sery-
ing on juries. They were Miss Katherine
Dalton ana Miss Edith Witwer. They
visited the court house with the OBJ
ject of selling tickets to a benefit ar
ranged to furnish funds to pay their
way back to New York.
Constable PhiIbin of Justice Hyne S
court offered them a chance to serve
on tae jury and they accepted. The
blushing coryphees were led into the
presence of the court. Justice Hynes
asked the respective counsel If they
had any objections. and both waived
their privilege. When the news was car
ricd around. the stuffy little court room
became packed with an interested au-
dience.
The case occupied about an hour and
Il verdict was returned. Warrants were
drawn for the fees, and the pretty
jurors returned and sold a score OF tick

out of the 362 which came in there was

II oniv boreS out my expressed belief
that the majority Of the people mere did
not want il. and | am satisfied.
Artistic Music Lovers.
The public will now believe what /
have always coptonded--that the people
of Washington are refined. cultured. and
thoroughly artistic music lovers. They
have shown that they want the best
composers. and as long as l am a
charge of the Marine Band | shall en-
deavor 10 give them the best of its ef-
forts. There is one drawback TO play
ing some OF the wonderful works writ
ten for bands. and that is that we have
no adequate band stand.
What want, and what the band and
the public should have. IS a shell stand.
where | may have the musicians around
me. where / can get the best effects,
and where the band will be in posi-
ton to bring out the delicate points of
these works
Unless band stand OF that order is
provided. IL will be impossible TO give
these to the public. They cannot be
played as we have to play now. for
their fine points are lost. and | am al
ways disguised with the result. | hope
that ! Eay succeed in my desire. and I
promise that the Washington public
will have band concerts that will rival
any like entertainments given. not only
in the United States, but anywhere in
the musical world.

CLASSICAL MUSIC IS
CHOSEN BY PUBLIC
Result of Request Program
by the Marine Band.
WAGNER WAS FIRST ON LIST
Fifty-nine Out of Total of s62 Are for
His Compositions - Lieutenant San
telmann CompIimented by Public
Cla,noring for His Wo1ks.

The request program announced by
Lieutenant Santelmanu. of the Marine
Band. for yesterday afternoon on. the
White Lot attracted one OF the largest
and most enthusiastic crowds OF the
summer Owing to the length OF the
numbers which made up the program
there were no encores.
A glance at the list of composers whose
names figured in Yesterdays concert, is
sufficient to satisfy the most skeptical
OF the rallacy OF the statement that tho
Washington public is not musical Three
Wagner compositions stand conspicuous
Rossini's overture to William Tell. "
two selections by Lieutenant Santel-
mann, one by Edward de Grain. another
by Prof. Fanciufli ard Hail Columbia
completed the program.
There has been so much discussion in
the past regarding the lack Of musical
culture at the Capital that the subject
might seem to have been worn thread
bare To the real lovers of music, dis
cussion OF the question will probably
continue until those who refuse TO see
are made to realize that in point OF true
artistic temperament-mu musical tempers-
ment-the people of Washington are the
equals. If not the superiors, OF those OF
other cities of the United States.
Masses Made Selections.
There is hardly more direct way OF
reaching the truth in such a matter than
an appeal to the people themselves. and
in order TO learn their genuine opinion
of Just what good music is, Lieutenant
santelmann announced the request pro-
gram and his willingness TO play those
selections which the majority OF the
people wanted. no matter what their
style and motive The band was virtu-
ally in the hands of the people, and GER
tainly the most critical could have found
no flaw in choice yesterday.
The number of requests reached 362, an
increase of more than 100 over those
sent in last year The music cynic who
saw the passing of the Boston symphony
as a visitor to Washington would un-
doubtedly experience a strange feeling
to know that out of the entire number
ffty-Hlne requests were for Wagnerian
Wagner is the representative of the
heaviest. most classic school of operatic
and the fact that his name
headed the list of composers for rspre-
on yesterdays program leaves
no question in the minds of the public
at large as 10 the musical intelligence OF
the citizens of Washington.
