First Appearance in Aida

immense Phta sat upon his golden
throne last night, and all Egypt did him
reverence, likewise as large an audience
as the Metropolitan Opera House has held
for many day. Yet when the god looked
down upon his worshippers he must have
trembled through every fibre of his huge,
inaruculate body. Great as he was there
was greater before him. very Atlas of
a warrior, splendid ip golden helmet and
JeWelled breastplate. 1t was little wonder
that hencefOrth Phta's vengeance was in
satiable. All of which means that Verdrs
Aida was being sing with Leo Slezak
making his first appearance in New York
in the part of Radames
Aida is the third Verdi opera in which
Mr.. Slezak has been heard since the Open
ing OF the season. and he again proved ms
nne artistic calibre. He dominated every
scene. and his clarion voice rang out
superbly in the climaxes. He sang the
Celeste Aida" with effectiveness and the
Nile scene with fire and passion. yet al

PLAN BIG MEETING
FOR WAIST STRIKERS.
Rumors of Settlement Made
and Quickly Denied.

FINAL preparations will be made this
AFTERNOON by the committee of arrange
ments of which Mrs. o. H. P. Belmont is
chairman, for the big mass meeting In
Carnegie Hall Sunday night to pro-
test against the attitude of certain police
magistrates and policemen toward the
girl pickets of the striking waist makers

Beard. of the committee. said last even
ing:
There will be many speakers at the
meeting. Among those who up to date
have agreed TO speak are Martin W. Lit
tleton, Miles NJ. Dawson and Miss
Leonora O'Eeily. In our protest on Sun
day night We will have specially in mind
Magistrates Cornell and Barlow. We be-
leve their sentences passed on the girl
pickets We're unduy severe and unfair, and
competent lawyers will explain how pick
cts who were punished in the courts had
only been exercising what we consider to
be their legal rights. The girl pickets who
served terms in the workhouse will be
seated in the front row on the platform.
The boxes will contain representatives OF
the societies under whose auspices the
meeting of protest has been called.
There was more talk of strike settle
ment yesterday. Mrs. Eva Mcdonald
Nalesh. the representative of the woman's
organization aiding the strikers. said she
had been called on by representative of
the Associated Waist and Dress Manu-
facturers, who proposed that the strikers
draw up a statement of exactly what they
wanted for consideration by the manu-
facturers.
l. B. Heyman. president of the manu-
facturers' association. said he believed
Mrs. Valesh was mistaken as no member
OF the association had any authority TO
make such a proposition. He also said there
could be no further conferences with rep
resentatives OF the strikers.
The strike leaders, however called a Sc
cret meeting in Clinton Hall for the small
hours OF the morning, to prepare an
amended proposal to be submitted to the
employers. During the afternoon n
Behar, secretary of the Federation of Jew
:sh Organizations. had a long interview

conference to end the strike. The manu-
facturers refused
Marcus NJ. Marks who with John Mitch
eli, tried twice to bring about a settle
ment of the strike, still of the opinion
yesterday that another conference might
be held. When seen at his home last even
ing he said
Il have been represented as criticising
the manufacturers but that is a mistake
We are altogether neutral in the matter.
l am still in touch with both sides and
hope for settlement Matters I believe
are working in that direction. The whole
dispute has now settled down to the ques-
ton Of what degree of union recognition
would be acceptable to both sides Mrs.
Nalesh was mistaken in taking the man
who called on her, and who is a friend of
the strikers. for a manufacturer"

INVADE EAST SIDE.
Mrs. Belmont Preades at Meet
ing of SnfrQ gists.

Mrs. o. H. P Belmont's campaign for
votes for women" on the East Side began
last night with a crowded meeting at the
Thomas Davidson Societys house, at No.
307 Henry street. An overflow meeting was
held on the second floor.
Mrs. Belmont, who was the honorary
chairman, was the centre of attraction.
However, her only utterance was confined
TO an introduction of the speakers and the
expressed hope that woman suffrage
would be taken up by the East Side.
Miss Caroline Crossett, who is the daugh-
ter of the former president of the New
York woman suffrage state organization,
and DR.. Barton o. Aylesworth, of Colorado.
were the principal speakers.
According to DR.. AyIeswOrth, the vote for
women in Colorado has made the average
annual wage for the women of that state
s354 as against an average of s2S6 in other
states.
The overflow meeting was addressed by
Mrs Mary Hanford Ford, of Kansas City.

MUSlC
THE PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY.

There was encouragement in the small
attendance at the third concert of the Phil
harmonic Society's historical series last
night. and also in the music. The pro-
granIne contained three numbers only, the
first of which. Schubert's Unfinished SYM
phony. had been played at the last concert
in the regular course less than a fortnight
ago. The other numbers were Mendels-
sohn's concerto for violin. played by Maud
Powell. and Schumanns Symphony in d
minor. Not one of the performances was
source Of unalloyed delight. though there
was great deal that was admirable in the
playing of Miss Powell. especially in the
latter portion of the slow movement of the
concerto. In the first movement and final
rondo she made some sacrifice of finish and
repose for the sake of dash and spirit In
like manner Mr.. Mailer, by excessive speed
and overmuch rhythmical accentuation
made the first and last movements of the
Schumann symphony sound capricious, rest
less, nervous. II. E. *.
