The Symphony Society of New York,
Walter Damrosch, the Dean OF Ameri-
can Conductors,' leading. gave its first
concert Of the season yesterday afternoon
at the Belasco Theater before . large
md distinguished audience.
Harold Bauer, the assisting artist, ap-
peared In two consecutive numbers, play
ing the piano obligato Of Cesar Franck's
Bymphonic poem, Les Dtinn" (for or
ehestra and piano., and also collaoorat-
ing with the orchestra in symphonic
Variations by the same composer, which
continued and elaborated the musical
forms begun in Les Dtinn." Noble and
dignihed in character with rich harmonies
and tender themes the music Of both
compositions aroused the enthusiasm of
the discriminating audience.
Mr.. Bauer played with his accustomed
viriIity and brilliancy OF technique which
is always Illuminated by the broad and
kindly spirit OF the pianist. Nor did his
playing lack remarkable variety Of tone
colour, although 1t was not possible for
the artist to display his entire genius In
this concerto Mr.. Bauer was recalled
many times
The lovely symphony 'Ienore" by Ran
was played by the orchestra with a con-
csntration and enthusiasm that resulted
In a splendid smoothness of tone and
finished style which won unstinted ap-
plause No lovelier effects in music could
Be produced than exhibited by the viollns
in sweetness Of tone and exactness Of
shading In the pathetic melody Of the
theme In the second movement Andante
quasi Larghetto.
The "Marsch-tempo' also was played
with inspiring rhythm and the illusion Of
distance was perfectly maintained. The
chorale OF the last Allegro was espe-
cially beautiful Mr.. Damrosch was
obliged to acknowledge the appreciations
OF the audience several times at the close
Of the symphony.
Something OF a novelty was the closing
number Of the program, excerpts from
In a Nutshell by Percy Granger. the
Australian pianist. Both the audience
and the orchestra entered into the humor
OF these unique portrayals Of every day
Australian street life, and laughed to-
gether. Mr.. Damrosch. always delight
fully genial and informal, seated himself
at the piano and played the music written
for that instrument in the score, giving
his baton to Mr.. q. Roller. the first
violin, who conducted with animation.

Clashes between counsel enlivened
the presentation of arguments on a

nearly four hours of argument the case
was taken under advisement by Justice

There were several sharp and bitter
exchanges between Attorneys George
P. Hoover. arguing for the motion in
behalf of the defendants. and District
Attorney Laskey, and between Frank J..
Hogan of the counsel for the defend
ants and Assistant District Attorney
James B. Archer.
At one stage Attorney Hogan warn
ed Mr.. Archer to BE careful and keep
within the records" and not to attempt
to cast aspersions upon the characters
of the counsel on the other side. This
was provoked by a statement by Archer
charging that a newspaper campaign
had been instigated in an attempt to
show that the affidavit on which the
perjury charges are based was sworn
to by accident

BACK ROOT FOR PURPOSE
New York Republicans Aim to Make
Convention Delegation Factor
in Conservatism.

According to information reaching re-
publicans at the Capitol today. the credi-
bility of which cannot be questioned. the
action of prominent republicans in New
York entering in the presidential race the
name of Elihu Root has one purpose,
namely:
To crystalline and consolidate republi-
can sentiment in the Empire state in IA
vor of conservatism and thereby to arm
the New York delegation to the national
convention and make it definite and
positive conservative force as well as to
accentuate it's influence.
Do Not Expect Roots Nomination.
1t is not understood that the movers
in this enterprise expect the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Root. That they are sin
cere in wishing his nomination Is un-
doubted, but the signers OF the decla-
ration are not men likely to cheat
themselves playing solitaire, and while
they would be ever SO glad to see him
nominated il they thought he could
win at the polls, the understanding
here is that they will first be intent
upon Tightening up the New York dele
CATION to the end of nominating a man
who may reunite the factions of the
republican party.
Tne presentation of the Root candi-
dacy is said to be distinctly hostile to
the suggested Roosevelt candidacy. 1t
is not very friendly to the movement
by Mr. Justice Hughes friends in his
belalf-that is to say, it is not pro-
Hughes, essentially.

BERLIN, April !, via London,
April 8.-Recent press dispatches
have brought word of statements
in the Canadian parliament and
Canadian newspapers that Ger
many was planning after this war
to plunge upon the American con-
tinent, and particularly to demand
cession to Germany of the Do
minion of Canada. In a conver-
sation with Herr Won Jagow, mir
lister of foreign affairs, the Asso-
<ciated Press correspondent re-
ferred to these rumors. The for
eign minister's first reply was an
outburst of laughter.
"How can people invent or be-
1ieve such stories?" he asked.
To any one not entirely blinded
by passion it is evident beyond
doubt that Germany never pur-
sued such senseless aims and
never contemplated doing SO.
Refers to Conquest Of q. s.
Can one imagine state of affairs
IN Europe after the war such that We
should have the leisure or a free
enough hand to divert our strength and
efforts to such a task on the American
continent?
Equally ridiculous. though unfor-
tunately this phase has a serious side,
are rumors which ] understand here
and there are current in the United
States .hat Germany after the war
will take revenge on the United States
by pursuing an anti-American policy.
1t Is even reported to me that some
apprehensive souls in America foresee
from victorious Germany an attempt
to break down the Monroe doctrine,
plant its flag in South or Central Amer
ica. or even a design to leap upon the
United States. and crush them in order
to attain mastery of both continents.
Il need hardly assure you such re-
ports. which from time to time have
been set afoat by enemies of Germany
In the evident intention of stirring
feeling against IL, are too absurd for
denial, 1 need only recall that Ger
manylhas never placed itself in -oppo-
sition to the American principle of the
Monroe doctrine.
