Harry Ferree in a boarding house in this
city last November was acquitted late

helmi. the noted violinist and concert
master, died Thursday. He was born in
1S45.
August Wilhelmj was the only great
violinist born in wealth. His father was
formerly the most extensive vineyard
owner on the Rhine. Himself a good
amateur violinist and great lover of
the instrument. he was. nevertheless, op-
posed to his sons embracing an artistic
career. The boys mother favored the
idea. and after much discussion it was
decided to submit the matter to Franz
Liszt and abide by his decision. So at
the age of fifteen Wilhelmj played for
Liszt. and with that his future was as
sured. The great pianist embraced him
In an ecstacy of joy. Liszt's interest was
SO great that he took the boy to Leipsc
and introduced him to David with warm
words OF commentator. Here he re-
manned at the conservatory from 1860 to
1864.
After graduating at the Leipsic Con-
servatory Wilhelmj began his brilliant
career as virtuoso. His fame rests not
only on his solo playing, but also on his
performances in chamber music. In 1876
he accepted Wagner's offer of the posi-
ton of concert master at the Baireuth
festival.
Wilhelmi made tours in America and
was warmly received everywhere. His
first appearance in Baltimore was one
afternoon at the Academy of Music back
in the sos, and his playing captivated the
audience. His rendering Of his own
transcription of Walther's Prize Song"
from Wagner's "Meistersingers,' was
revelation.

of this injunction we are peremptorily Gu
or from the exercise of these rights.
Alleged Denial Of Equality.

These injunctions are applied to wage
workers exclusively. though they involve
personal rights and liberties. 1t is this
denial of equality before the law against
which we protest.
"One point we have been making for
years in regard to other injunctions is
equally applicable to this case. We con-
tend that the power to issue injunction,
involving personal rights and liberties
should not be left to the discretion of any
judge. no matter how wise, how. discreet
or how learned"
The action against the Federation of
Labor and it's officers was brought in the
Supreme Court of the District of Column
bia on the ground that the publication of
the stove company in the I'VE don't
patronize list in the American Fedora
ZIONIST was in the nature of boycott.
Justice Gould's order has been complied
with in this respect by dropping the stove
company from the list.
