cost Of maintaining orchestras, ant
orchestral concerts, 1 mother cities. a
similar association to that OF Detroit
lin Cleveland, pays an annual per capfti
deficit of from $40 to $75. The Detroi
season may be put down as markell!
successful in view Of what may be con
sidered adverse circumstances. which
include the increase In the number
concerts from Ave to seven: the ad
dition OF two of the highestpriced or
chestras to the list; the increased
cost of maintaining an orchestra, ant
OF sending It on tour, owing to tho In
lter-state commerce regulations; ant
the fact that the current season open
ed in the throes of general electioI
and a period of political unrest. All
these things had q direct effect upoI
the patronage and support OF musica
affairs. The Detroit Orchestral asso
citation has been Loyalty supported b!
its list of guarantors and by the public
at large. but the cost Of bringing tht
foremost symphony orchestras Of thu
country to this city for series o
seven concerts Is an enormously ex
pensive undertaking and the box OF

the amount of money involved. Plans
are under way directly for the 1881
