ORCHESTRA
GIVES THREE "B'S"
Brahms, Bach and Beethoven on
the Programme of SYM
phOny Players.

On the second visit Of the Boston
Orchestra to New York this season
DR.. Muck gave its patrons considerably
more music of the ultra modern sort
than they were DESTROYS, or capable,
assimileting. Last night, when the ad-
mirabl. band came back again to Ca
negie Hall, it played nothing but ia
miIisr compositions familiar as the
rose in spIing and the crop in sum-
mer."
The symphony was Brahms's first, in
C. minor, and ther1 were two overtures
by Beethoven-that to "Coriolan" ald
the third of the "LeCnore" set. Be-
tween the overtures came Bach's con-
certo for two violins, played by nto
Witek, the leader IF the orchestra's vlo-
Inns, and Sylvester Noack, hB assistant
No one of experience would be tempt,
ed to call this a well chosen or wen
arranged programme. 1t was probably
meant as a sign of appreciation OF Dr.
Won Bulow's artistic trinity, the three
BIS; but that appreciation to all but
one of the compositions was given by
the music lovers of New York many
wears before DR.. Muck was born. SO
there remains nothing to say beyond an
expression of admiration for the man
ner in which the bea Itiful pieces were
plared-all Of them-the concert mas
ter and his assistant showing as much
understanding of the style of the Bach
period as they did devotion to the
double concerto and appreciation OF It's
ever-fresh beauty.
II there were any danger that music
like the slow movement of this con-
certo could ever grow stale, the fact
would reconcile an old amateur with
his approaching end and even make him
wish that his dissolution might pre-
cede the passing away Of the peoples
love and understanding of its strains:
1t is a great pity that the enjoyment Of
the orchestral, playing, especially in
the symphony, should have been cloud
ed by the reflection that with just as
good individual musicians in New York
in orchestras bolstered up by million
dollar endowments and 100000 annual
guarantees, we must wait for such ar
tistic playing upon the visitors from
the farther East H. 10. X

Mrs. Mary Hasell Berwick, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis CrUger Hasell,
of l26 East Seventy-irst Street, was
married at 10 o'clock yesterday morn
ing, in St. Marks Church, to Adrian van
de Sande- Bakhuysen, Consul General
for the Netherlands in New York City.
The wedding came as surprise
to New York society, for no announce
ment had been made of the engage
ment and only a few intimate friends
of the couple were let in on the secret.
Mrs. Sande- Bakhuysen's first husband
was George Berwick, a barrister in Mid
dlesex, England, heir TO Sir Robert Bor-
wick, of Cumberland. Their marriage,
which was a brilliant one, took place in
Grace Church, in December, 1908. Five
years later she brought suit for di-
vorce on the ground Of infidelity.
After she obtained the decree, in 1918,
she returned to this city, and has been
living here it'll her parents.
Mr.. van de Ssnde- Bakhuysen and
Mrs. Berwick went to the Municipal
Building yesterday morning and took
out a marriage license. She gave her
age as twenty-five, and he said he was
forty years old This was his first
marriage.
Immediately after obtaining the Ii
cense, the couple went to st. Marks
Church, where the ceremony was per-
formed by the Rev. ". n. Guthrie. in
the presence of relatives and few in
innate friends.
The bride, who was given away by
her father, was in a gown of white
broadcloth, trimmed in sable and rare
embroideries which had belonged to
her great-aunt, the Countess de Trou-

SAYS Enemies Must Be
Thrown to Ground and
Sue for Peace.
OLD GENERAL GIVES
HINT AS TO TERMS
Wrochem Sees Danger in Mod
Grafton, Not Harshness-
Wants New Frontiers.
Try Cab. to The Tribune !

London, Feb. 19.-The Copenhagen
correspondent of "The Daily News re-
ports that the King Of Bavaria recently
spent three days at Krupp's and that at
q banquet given in his honor delivered
speech in which, as reported by the
"Kolnische Zcitung," he said:
81 have just come from the seat Of
war and can assure you that in spite Of
the long struggle the spirit OF our
troops is quite first class. 1t is the
same among hose who are at the front
as among those who are at home. The
! people throughout the German Empire
are resolved not to conclude peace until
our enemies have been thrown to the
ground and sue US for peace, where
upon we shall be able to dictate such a
peace as will again secure for us tran
GUILTY. for many decades to come
The King did not specify in detail
what sort Of terms would secure such a
peace. SOM enlightment on this head
is supplied by an article contributed by
Herr Wrochem, a retired general. TO
the Tag" under the title Looking For
ward" The article is directed against
those who advocate mild peace terms
and are opposed to territorial acquisi-
/ items in Europe. lie detects in these
counsels not so much the promptings OF
| philanthropy as the voice OF fear u
| future revanche. but argues:
1.-THE danger for us Germans will lie
not in the harshnesJ of our peace
| terms but in a false assumption that
our moderation would gain. for us the
! forgiveness Of our enemies. On the
contrary, when making peace We must
take care that from this tremendously
costly war Germany shall emerge so
overwhelmingly great and powerful as
TO render impossible or futile any
coalition against US. This can only be
achieved by the advantageous rectifi-
cation of our frontiers, which should
protect us against attack more ef-
. fectively than before.
81 agree that the annexation of for
! eign populations endowed with German
civil rirhts may easily prove thorn
in our flesh, but what need have we to
endow these foreign populations pre-
maturely with full citizenship. In
short, when making peace, we must act
in the spirit of Bismarck, whose threat
was; '"Our enemy, bleed him white"

MENT IN REGARD TO FOOD

Western Newspaper Union New, Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, July 12.-Gen. Pablo
Gonzales has occupied Mexico City, ac-
cording to information given by Car
rama officials to American consular
officers at Vera Cruz.
Gonzales reports killing 1000 and
capturing 5000. Zapatistas during
final assault establish headquarters in
the national palace.
Telegraphic communication with
Mexico City was still cut off Satur-
day. 1t is known that there are 2O,-
900 foreign residents in the capital
most of whom are Americans, and
their safety depends upon the ability
of the Brazilian minister to insure or
der during the inevitable chaos at.
tending the occupation by Gonzales
army.
The fall OF Monclova. in the State
of Coahuila, was reported by the Car
rama agency, which said its dis
patches reported the villa defenders
had been routed after pitched bat
tie.
Dispatches to the Carranza agency
from Vera Cruz announced that Gen.
Carranza was sending officers OF the
various departments of his govern
ment on special train to Mexico
City to set up civil administration
there at once.
An advance against Piedras Negras
was reported in progress and there
was panic in the city. II was said
a villa force Of 800 had been captured
at Barroteran.
Charles A. Douglas of this city, lie.
gal adviser to Gen. Carranza, who is
now in Vera Cruz. telegraphed the
Carranza agency here that after an
investigation he had sent to Secretary
Lansing Statement of facts in the
interest OF truth" as to the food situa.
tion. In Vera Cruz, he said, there was
no disposition to obstruct the work Of
the Red Cross, but there is a feeling
that its work is not needed in the
city. however great its needs may be
elsewhere" In Vera Cruz, demand for
labor exceeds the supply. he adds and
wages are good. The government of
Vera Cruz. reports Mr.. Douglas, ''is
now. and has been for some time. sell
ing foodstuffs ut one-half the regular
price to those able to pay. and max
ing free distribution to those unable
to pay"
AS soon as Mexico City is occupied.
800 carloads OF food will be taken into
the city by Gen. Gonzales, the re-
port states, and details the quantities
OF corn. flour, oats, beans, sugar and
other foodstuffs purchased for the re-
lief of the poor.
