AUTOS IN SWEDEN
First Bubble Show Was Distinct
Success.

Sweden's first automobile show was
a distinct success and gave indications
that the Swedes would soon be in the
front rank. The opening was attended
by Prince Gustaf, then regent, and
Princes Gustaf Alolf, Carl and Eugen.
The most gratifying feature was the
number of Swedish cars, both for pas
senger and freight. Among the former
a good deal of attention was naturally
given to the only entirely Swedish
motor cars, 24-horsepower and two l2-
horsepower, manufactured by the
Scania factory at Malmo. They are
strongly built, the former with four
cylinders, the latter with two. They
are constructed according to the Went
eel system. with phosphor bronze cylin-
ders. Chains are used for the trans
mission of power. Cars for the convey
ance Of goods were shown by several
makers, the Soderblom Foundry com
pany, the Sodertelje Carriage company,
etc.
There were several English, German
and American cars, among the latter
being Pope-Toledo, Pope Tribune, White.
Franklin, Ford, Cadillac, Michigan and
Oldsmobile.

CONCESSION
REFUSED BY
BELMONT

New York. March T.--At meeting OF
the Central Federated union a resolution
has been adopted calling upon every
union 10 withdraw from the Civic FEEDER
ation. 1t was further resolved to call
a mass meeting and agitate against CIV
ing private corporate tions any more fran
chises for subways.
Adoption OF the resolutions followed
the reception OF reports from a commit
tee sent by the Central Federated union
10 confer last week with President Bel
mont OF the Interborough Rapid Transit
company regarding the employment OF
the men who lost their jobs as the re-
suit OF the recent strike.
This report showed that Mr.. Belmont
declined to make any concessions, saying
that the road was equipped with all the
men needed and that the former en-
ployes could only be re-employed when
vacancies occurred. Recognition OF any
union also was refused.
When the delegates, representing more
than 150 900 workers. heard the report
pandemonium reigned. Delegates arose
and shouted at the top OF their lungs
against Mr.. Belmont. Attack after at
tack was made against the Civic Fedora e
ton. while some OF the delegates loudly
demanded that every labor leader should
resign from that body.
Samuel Gompers, president Of the
American Federation Of Labor who is
vice president Of the National Civic fed
Grafton, was also denounced.
The resolutions noted were then
adopted.

BALLOT Law
REPORT FOR

Tomorrow II is expected that the joint
select committee for the revision OF the
ballot laws will make it's report in writ
ing to the general assembly and 1t Is
equally certain that the result will not
be the introduction OF voting machine

The report will be complete one and
the changed, amended or brand new laws
will be included in full so that they may
be considered Immediately. The ballot
recommended is similar TO the one used
in New Hampshire, which is favorable TO
the independent voter as in addition to
the regular party column is one for in
dividual nominations.
As may be expected from the diff
ficuities encountered in the official count
last year the question Of ballot law caused
considerable discussion and IL Is under
stood that the new law resembles the one
used in Vermont to a considerable ex-
tent.

Inc Boston Symphony Orchestra ends this week.
with to-morrow's matinee, its nineteenth annual
series Of concerts in New-York with a numerical
record or some forty compositions performed and
d sum OF inspiring achievement not so easily COM
puteo out none the less tangible. Last night there
was expression Of the appreciation felt by tbe
organizations splendid clientele when after the
Tschaikowsky Manfred" symphony had come To
It's solemn finish the audience that filed Carneris
Hail showered applause persistently that Mr.
GeIlcke Dade the musicians of the orchestra stand
ana snare It, There could have been no rnistakinx
lhe meaning OF this gracious demonstration and
1t would be difficult indeed to understand the
attitude OF public not alive to the extraordinary
qualities of this Boston band of players
1t was trio of three master works that Mr.
Gercke had assembled for the final evening concert
last night-for surely the Tschaikovsly music in
cited by Byron's Manfred is to be admitted To
this category, even when it's companions are the
Brahms violin concerto and Beethoven's LEO
more" overture No 3. The Russian composer has
shown more intense and more sustained creative
stamina when he laid down set programme for
himself, as in the fifth and the sixth symphonies
but this Manfred" music is vet of memorable
imaginative power and breadth not so universal
as the great outpouring OF genius that is called
the Symphonic Pathetique," but stfu vital and
enthralling utterance 1t a master not less,
that voiced the final proclamation marking Man
fred's death with the sunset
In the Brahms concerto Mr.. Kreisler was solost
and Mr.. Gericke gave way to Mr. Willy Hess who
has several times, in Boston and on the orchestras
tours, exercised the function OF assistant to the
conductor. The experiment Of such it need be
called was wholly successful, for the orchestra
played its part with balance precision, while Mr.
Kreisler has done nothing better this winter than
the superb first movement. He recalled sew
eral times for his fine accomplishment of a noble
task The Beethoven 'Leonore'' overture brought
the evening to exalted close.
