NINE. CULP AIDS DAMROSCH

Three concerts besought the attention
If local music lovers yesterday. Vera
Rarstow. a young violinist who has been
PLAYING in the West. offered herself for
consideration In a recital at Aeol,an Hail
In the afternoon. Her programme began
very seriously indeed with the Brahms
sonata, opus IS. after which stood Bachs
prelude and fugue in q minor Then came
a leap 10 the present and three pieces by
Mr. Kunits of Chicago vera played. Vic-
tor koar. one Of the violinists Of MIR
Damro sch's orchestra, was represented by
h!s new indian scherso' and tho enter
tainment arrived at It's conclusion with u
ht - Paganini.
Miss Barstow showed herself to be a
fairy well schooled violinist. whose tech.
me was sound II not complete. She played
some things with much taste, and In the
slow movement OF the Brahms number
with real musical feeling. Her tone. how
ever. was neither large nor brilliant and
her style lacked the forcefulness necessary
to influential performance. Hut she has
a real talent and a fine seriousness Of
purpose and she may have 4 future.
The initiation Of the youth OF the city
INTO the mysteries OF the orchestra was
continued by Walter Damrosch at the
symphony concert for young people at
Carnegie Hall. also In the afternoon.
The Instruments brought to public notice
were the flute and the clarinet. The H.
illustrator OF the former was Of course
George Barrere, while Gustave Lsngenus
was the demonstrator Of the latter.
Music of Giuck, Mozart and others fur
rished the material. There was a solo
81 OF vocal music TO impart variety TO
the proceedings This was Mime. Julia
Culp. who sang the song Of Ellen In THE
Lady ~ the Lake" and Ave Maria"
both by Schubert. and also another num-
Der later In the programme.
IN the evening Aeoiian Hall was once
more the seat Of activity. and this time
the offering was a song recital by the tall
Czech tenor Leo Slezak. formerly of the
Metropolitan Opera House and recently OF
the opera In Montreal. Mr.. Slexak was
greeted by an audience so large that part

riety. II included operate airs from
"oberon.'' Die Zauberfote" and Ia
luivc" songs by the German masters
Erahms Strauss and Weinsartner. the
Czech Novotny and the Americans Spross
sidney Homer and Walter Morse Rummel
Mr.. Slezaks singing was received with
much applause and disclosed the qualities
made familiar in the course Of severa
opera seasons here. 1t may be said thai
the tenor IL heard to better ADVANTAGE
with orchestra than with piano. chief,
because of the vigor and penetration o,

Only One session Daily.

The Coffee Exchange announced yester-
day that until further notice the lquidat-
ing committee which was formed shortly
after the exchange was closed will hold
only one session daily, from . to 2 80
i, NJ and on Saturday from II 80 A, NJ
TO noon. This is regarded as an indica-
ton that open contracts in futures have
been very largely reduced and that little
more work of this character remains to be
transacted.
There has been no change In the gen
eral coffee situation and the trade has
settled back to await developments. The
credit factor remains the stumbling
block. though negotiations. are under
stood TO be going on looking to the estab-
lishment OF arrangements under which
Brazilian shipments may be resumed.

steadily decreasing. For the less desir-
able grades demand Is not heavy, notwith-
standing the uncertain outlook.

TRADING IN OIL HERE
PLANNED BY EXCHANGE
Consolidated Takes step to Re-
viye Business Of Large
Proportions.

VI. Z. de Aguero. president OF the Con-
solidated Stock Exchange, made 1t known
yesterday that the officials OF that insti-
tuition arc considering the possibility of
reestablishlnE "A market for oil pipe line
certificates. Mr.. dc Aguero has sent a
letter to the leading petroleum companies
and oil producers I'm consequence OF the
announcement that oil carrying companies
will once more issue negotiable certificates
for stored oil
The Consolidated Exchange in the SOS
was noted for its petroleum deal
ings. and in 1888. l.06b.423.0o0 barrels
were traded In there. Tho banner year
was 1885, with s,6i2,l8s,0 900 barrels.
Mr.. de Aguero's letter reads:
'In conformity with the ruling Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission In q
notice TO all pipe line companies. dated
July II. 1914. It will be incumbent upon
said pipe line companies to receive as
common carriers any oil rendered by pro-
ducers and TO issue therefor certificates
You will doubtless recall that up to 1899
there were active dealings in pipe GER
tiicates on oil exchanges in various cities
throughout the oil regions and at New
York
THE Consolidated exchange is the out
come OF the consolidation of the New
York Petroleum Exchange and the New
York Mining Stock and National Petro-
leum exchanges As long as dealings
were had IN pipe line certificates this
exchange was a prime factor In those
dealings. transactions running rs high as
100000 barrels in one day! There
fore this exchange Is the natural and
logical homo OF the oil Industry. should
such dealings be resumed.
The advantage TO the producer is that
he always has ready market and can
either sell his oil Immediately or make a
loan on his certificates through his broker
and carry nj, oil until the market suits
him. II proper interest In and support
OF the project are evinced by the oil In
ter,s SITS this exchange will reopen it's oil
department and AFFORD facilities for deal
inGs in the different grades and kinds
of oil"
