In these days Of musical problem plays
there is stin one series Of concerts to
which persons not m sympathy with the
newer music czn safely resort. For
some time past the Oiivs Mead Quartet
has devoted its public programmes
chiefly to classic nAsters and to Later
composers Who keep within hailing dis
tance OF mo beaten trail. Thus the
quartet's auditors while deprived OF tho
joys Of discovery may be sure Of greeting
old friends.
IL appeared last evening. however. at
Mendelssohn Hall that the number OF
concertgoers to be drawn by a cautious
programme, even though played in the
capable fashion 70 which the Olive Mead
Quartet has Accustomed its public. was
not large. There was a Haydn quartet
In g major. the Dvrak terzetto for two
viOlins and viola, and the Schubert A
minor quartet. Nothing In this scheme
was calculated to stir deeply those who
listened except the noble work OF Schu-
bert, and until its nassive notes were
projected into the hall there had been
scarcely q phrase Of music that attained
real volume or that sounded otherwise
than scant and thin.
Try a. they would, Miss Mead and her
earnest associates could not give the
Haydn quartet the note Of solid i'm
portance that Its name and fame entitle
II to occupy, In the Dvorak terzetto
they wove delicate tonal flarnents which
pleased their soditors. The Schubert

President Adds New Chapter to Secret
Service Controversy.

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Hem
enway of Indiana, is another Of the
country's distinguished who has been
made member of the Ananias club by
President Roosevelt. 1t is all due
to the report made by Hemenway, as
chairman Of the appropriations COM
mittee on the limitations placed upon
the use of the secret service, of which
the president complained so seriously
in special message to congress.
Senator Hemenway In this report
upholding the limitation in the scope
of the secret service. asserted that
it never had been the intention Of con-
gress to build up spy" system and
with evident reference to this part
of the report, the president declared
that If the limitation of the use of the
secret service had been in force when
the sensational land frauds were I'M
earthed few years ago, a senator, q
representative and various men Of
wealth and high political influence,
who at that time were convicted.
would all have escaped punishment.

"BATTlE FLEET"
is STORM WEP1
Blow In Hampton Roads Does Not
Affect Warships-Ride Safely
at Anchor.

Fort Monroe, Va, Feb. 24.-The
American battle fleet" as the 16 YES
sells which circumnavigated the globe
are officially designated by President
Roosevelt, were storm swept in the
roadstead here yesterday, but riding
safely at anchor the heavy ironclads
did not feel the effects of the blow.
Admiral Sperry will personally in
spect the entire fleet and make a de-
tailed report to the navy department,
covering the cruise since he succeed
ed Rear Admiral Thomas at San Fran
cisco. Each vessel after inspection
will be detached and sent to navy
yard for repairs. The most serious
work is the scraping and painting of
bulls in dry dock. The ships came in
with little or no coal left in their
bunkers Foul sea growth acclmu-
mulated upon the steel bottoms. That
the ships so long after docking could
maintain their prescribed cruising
speed of ten knots speaks volumes for
the condition of the machinery after
the most trying voyage ever a navy
was sent upon.
A number of the ships are to be
modernized as to turret mechanism
and other details needed to bring them
up to the standard of present day fight
ing units.
The Ohio will be sent to the New
York navy yard for improvements, de-
layed two years because of the pros
pective sailing Of the fleet. An eft
fort will be made to have the Ohio
ready to rejoin the fleet at the rem
devious set for Hampton roads or
May II.
The battleship Vermont continued
in quarantine yesterday on account Of
a SUSPECTED case of smallpox aboard.

nETTY GREEN'S DAUGHTER WEEDS
Richest Woman Finally Grants Per-
mission for Marriage to Wiks.

New York, Feb. 2.a-Sylvia Green.
daughter OF Mrs. Hetty Green, was
married soon after noon yesterday at
her mothers fiat in Hoboken, N. j., to
Mathew Aston Wilks. The wedding
was a comparatively quiet affair.
There were between eighteen and
twenty guests, mostly relatives of
either the bride or bridegroom.
Thus ends very long courtship and
the opposition of the richest mother
in the world. 1t was not until Sunday
morning that Mrs. Green consented to
her daughters marriage with Mr.
Wilks. The preparations, however
had been going on steadily, the daugh.
ter and her fiance being confident OF
winning over the mother.
