MASCACN| CAN'T PAY
His Orchestra Goes to Pieces
for Lack of Salary
Money.

Boston, MASS, November 5.-(Spe-
cial.)-A1ascagni, author of .'Cavallera
Rusticanna," who is presenting a series
OF his own operas at the Boston Music
Hall, is having a great deal of trouble.
1t comes about because the public has
not overcrowded his house any night, so
far, and receipts have been very light.
Last night members of the orchestra
refused to commence on time unless some
sort of financial settlement was made
with them, and the performance was de-
iayed more than an hour. This afternoon
there was another strike The musicians
would not begin the programme until the
ghost had walked and Mascagni, who
is his own manager, pleaded in vain for a
long time. He explained that yesterday,
being a holiday the banks were not open
(Which is not true), and he could get no
money to pay off to-day, but he surely
would do SO later this afternoon.
Finally the orchestra gave in. and the
performance was given. Tonight, after
compromise had been apparently affect
ed, the trouble eliminated in the disband-
ment of the company. The musicians
were at the bottom Of the whole trouble
all the way through. and when they re-
fused TO accept the tender of the entire
box office receipts, there was nothing for
the famous Italian but to declare his
company dsbanded.
Mascagni received $4,000 before he came
to this country. He was to receive $1,000
every week. and next Saturday there VIII
be due him s120G0.
It is said that the Mittenthals, his man
ayers. are out already 100000 on the sea-
son. The Mttenthals claim that not
cent is due the musicians.

Station to Elba. Here the yard engine
-uts from the train and goes on anead 20
the yards and clears the main track into
a siding before the through train reaches
The yard. Last night instead Of the yard
,ngine coming on first the train came
first. The fagman thinking 1t was the
yard engine opened the switch and the
train drawn by the largest type OF road
engine at the terrific rate of forty miles
an hour plunged through the open switch
and in less than second struck the two
freight cars standing on the siding, just
twenty yards from the switch.
The train was drawn by what is known as
a ''six-wheel driyer'-the largest type Of
road engine. It was built and delivered

Potomac railroad. just one year ago by
the Richmond branch of the American
Locomotive Works. The locomotive was

Admiration for Tnmnnnx

Universal admiration for Tammany Hall
Is the expression here to-day. even among
Republicans. Inc opponents of the noted
organization are willing to give it praise
Tor being the most splendid political fight
Ing machine in the world, and do praise
it highly for that. No wonder the Repub-
iicans hate and despise the organization
and try to portray 1t as a corrupt and de-
praved body, with nothing but booty as
Its aim. An organiza ton that can fright

Tammany did yesterday is not one to re-
ceive their commendation in n public
way. Tammany had no especial love for
David B. Hill, and had no cause to love
his candidate for Governor, Bird Coler.
Yet it is worthy of notice that the or
Ganization rolled UP majority in Great
er New York that fairly staggered the
Republicans and frightened them SO bad
ly they did not know what to think. Had
the Hill organization in the upper part of
.ne State done its work half so we'll, Coler
woulu easily have been Governor. Coler's S
election failed because he did not secure
the Sa me support up the State he did in
Greater New York. Tammany's loyal

Democrats generally.
Democratic Expectations Exceeded.
His prediction prediction was for a
Democratic majority of 112,0b0 III the big

great race is not attributed to Coler S
magnetism or his hold on New York

was due to the efforts of Tammany Hall,

credit. The possible picture of ex-Presl-
