SYMPHONY CONCERT
First of the Season Proves a Brilliant Artistic
 Success.
HERR KNEISEL CHARMS
Professor Parker Shows True Inspiration and Splendid
 Control as Conductor.

The New Haven Synlghony orches-' tra. under the leadership of Horatio Parker, gave the first of it's seasons concerts at Woolsey hall yesterday af-i ternoon. The audience, while not quite as large as some years, filled all the best seats of the vast auditorium and by it's demonstrative approval of yes terday's work showed the high esteem in which the labors of the orchestra are held.
 Comparisons are frequently made be- tween the local organization and those of larger cities, and in this comparison New Haveners and the university have reason to feel proud that within our borders so excellent an organization of musicians has become banded together.
 The program was wisely and happily chosen. The overture to the Marriage of Figaro lies well within the scope of the players and was given delight full reading.
 An air of regret spread over the au- dience when Prof. Parker announced that Willen Willeke, 'cellist, could not appear owing to illness, but a grand substitute was made in the per- son of Franz Kneisel, the violinist who is at the head of the string quartet bearing his name. He played the in- freuuently heard A minor concerto by Johann Bach.
 We may have learned to appreciate Harr Kneisers work more in quartet than as a single artist and while in this sphere he may lack some of the big tone and outward dash and bril- liancy possessed by some professionals his listeners were soon carried away by his exquisite, pure tone and wher he had finished the intricate cadence for which the work is famous. his skill. ful exhibition of double stopping ant harmonics, together with his master. 1 ful display of technique, brought forth what proved to be well-nigh an ova. ton. He did not, however, respond tC the several recalls accorded him. Prof Parker rave him an accompaniment which for delicacy and precision wal excellent.
 No more attractive program music i found than the Peer Gynt" suite by Greig. In this the conductor showed true inspiration and a splendid control The brass was better than usual. Tn Eecoad movement was played wit choice solemnity while the parts fo ' mutted strings were effectively col

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 5.-Probably never before has so little been known as to the result of an election in this state at Ii p. m. At that hour returns are in from only fifteen precincts and these are all in this city. Nothing what ever has come from the counties upon which to base calculation and any estimate of the result of the general election would be the merest guess work. Chairman Vandiver of the dem ocratic state central committee claim ed the state for his ticket by 12,0O0, but the republican leaders declared them selves hopeful as ever.f
 The meagre reports received contain nothing whatever that would indicate anything unusual in the vote. The state is normally democratic by about 12,O0O

that another small island in Oriental

found It in a different location from
which it is shown in oficial publica-

GOVERNMENT TO
SMASH0|L TRUST
CASE IN ST. EOUIS INTENDED TO
DISSOLVE THE HUGE ROCK.
EFELLER MONOPOLY.
$20,00O,OOO Fine Will Be Appealed
and Ii viii Take Years
for Settlement.

Washington. Aug. department
OF Justice officials, while proud Of the
exploit Of fining the Standard Oil the
$2s,000,000. are disposed to make
the point that the story has not been
all told yet. The department. in
fact, according to the intimations
here, does not intend to stop until 1t
has dissolved the whole gigantic
monopoly"
This action. they say, will be the
only solution of the exactions of the
monopoly. They are aware, they say.
that the s2s.0Q0.o00 is a big sum,
but II the case were to end there the
fine might be paid and the robber
concern still flourish.
AS a matter of concrete fact the
real issue against the Standard Oil
Company was not involved in the
case. The Standard cares little about
the levying Of this fine, because 1t
probably will be years before II can
be collected, even II 1t be collected
at all. The case. of course, will be
appealed. and in the nature OF things
judicial 1t will be long time before
final settlement of it is reached.
In st. Louis, however, case
against the parent Standard Oil Com
pany is pending which menaces the
very existence OF the gigantic con-
cern. 1t is a proceeding brought by
the Government under the Sherman
antitrust act to dissolve the oil trust.
and II the GoveSnment should sue
ceed the Standard Oil Company will
be forced to relinquish its monopoly
on the oil industry Of the country.
Apparently the Department of JUS
tice is redhot after the Standard Oil
concern.
Government oficials who have
studied the situation regard Judge
lands action in ordering proceed
ings to be brought against the Chi
cago & Alton people in regard to the
rebates granted by that road to the
Standard Oil Company even more
serious than the assessing OF the
$29,000,000 fine against the Stand
ard OIL. Under the law, the road
granting rebates is equally guilty
with the concern accepting them.
Subsequently the same evidence on
which the Standard was convicted
will be used against the railroad.

Austin, Tex, Aug. THE Rail-

sons giving or receiving free trans
portation or free services except
those expressly exempted. The COM

county in the State through which a
railroad runs or which an employe

Discharging Union Miners.

Cripple Creek, Col, Aug. THE
acquittal of William D. Haywood,
Secretary OF the Western Federation
of Miners, has been followed by what
appears to be an effort on the part
OF the mine owners and operators of
Cripple Creek to renew the war upon
all members OF the Western Fedora
ton. Last night the union men
working on the Thompson and Hum
phrey leases, were peremptorily dis
charged.
1t is stated that the Granite will
let out a number of Federation men
today and that the other mines In
the district will fall in line and drop
such of the employees as are affiliated
with the Federation.

of mans body held by the authori-
ties of one State and the other half

refusing to give up the half 1t holds
is situation now existing In Mexico,
which serves to magnify some of the

country.

one of the cars OF his train while 1t
was on siding at Espiritus Santo,
Zacatecas. The train started up and
cut him squarely in two at the belt.
Half of the body rolled to the side Of
the track and the other half. becom-
ing tangled in the brakebeam, was
carried to Salinas. San Luis Potosi.
The authorities In each State took
possession of half the body and each
refuses to return the half II has over
to the other. No ofiicial investiga-
tion can proceed without the whole
corpse as the basis. hence the au-
thorities are at swords points and the
relatives of the dead man are unable
to do anything.
