Wagner struggled during his lifetime,
and how poor he was In the earlier part
Of his career. II was then that many
OF his works sold for small sums OF
moneysfor instance, the Meistersnger
being disposed OF for $50. And II was
only towards the end OF his life that
Richard Wagner began TO realize ms
great ambition. During all OF this time
the great world enjoyed the ad-
vantage OF the composers efforts,

AS to the legal ASPECTS OF the case,
involving the question Of International
copyright Madame Nordlca said she
could not give any opinion; she could
speak only on the general equities, tho
moral right or wrong OF the matter.
She further observed that owing to the
semi-relgious character OF the "Parci-
fall It hardly seemed suitable for pre-
sentation before the average New York
audience. Mr.. Conreid had offered her
the role Of "Kundry," the leading char
acter In the coming production Of the
great operate work, but she said there
was no agreement reached up to date.
