One of the places where they got
shower that was a shower Sunday
afternoon was out in the eastern part
of the city and particularly in the
vicinity of Three Mile pond. Those
people who were at the cottages on
the shore of the pond state that the
rainfall was heavier than it was during
the memorable tempest of last sum-
mer and that the hailstones were
something terrific. Some of the stones
were said to be as large as English
walnuts and the damage done to grow
ing crops. especially corn and oats,
which were torn to fragments, was
heavy.

Music of Yesterday

The Knesel Quartet is no more.
Last night At Aeoian Hall, before an
audience which probably included more
distinguished musicians than have as
scmbcd for any other single concert
in New York this year. the world IA
nous chamber music organization said
farewell 1t was a large assemblage
and one in which many gray heads
we're observable.
Nh. Kneisei had selected a pro-
gramme that came close to perfection.
There were two quartets, Brahms's c
Minor, Op. 81, No. 1, and Beethoven's
b fiat major, Op. 1870, and Richard
Strauss Sonata in F major, for piano
forte and violonccllo, OPP. 6.
Again, and unhapply for the las:
time, the famous organization revealed
all of those qualities which have en-
deared it 10 serious musicians the
world over and have gained for it the
reputation of being the most eclectic
and highly perfected musical ensemble
in existence. Beautiful tone, exquisite
control of nuance and absolute balance
Of parts were again displayed. The
highest point in the entertainment was
reached in the Cavatina Cadagio muto
espressivo) Of Beethoyen's fat major
quartet.
Df ba fo,t ,t.ht eh hau
been aimed at the Kneisel Quartet is
that it lacked imagination and tended
TO what a famous journalist once called
too severely classical" music. If there
were not all the warmth Of tone and
depth of imaginative feeling conceiv-
able in the rendition of this selection
such things do not exist. Mr. Willeks
and Mr.. Gabrilowitsch contributed an
other number of great beauty, played
with the perfect artistry that only
such cooperation could produce.
Some years ago, when the quartet
was in Europe, a certain monarch sent
n messenger 70 Mr. KneiseIs manager
ordering him TO appear at the palace
and play before the royal family. Mr..
Kneisel is credited with a reply which
has become famous:
81 will not appear, nor will | play.
My quartet and | play for our own
artistic satisfaction, and for that
alone"
This sentence epitomizes the atti-
tude Of the organization, and is the
artistic ideal which has been respon-
sible for its remarkable success.
At the end of last nights concert
Louis Svecenski, senior member of the
quartet, made a farewell address, in
which he told of the struggles of Mr..
Kneisel and his companions to main
tain the high aims which they had set
for themselves. In ending, he said:
There are many others who will
take up the task which we have been
forced 10 abandon. and all we can do is
to ask for the same kind consideration
for them which has always been shown
TO US. Encourage them, and no matter
Of what nationality they or you, their
Judges. may be, let US all bow to his
supreme majesty, Ludwig Won Bee
thoven."
On the stage and below, in the art
lists reception room, were numbers of
floral remembrances, the largest of
which was a great ivy wreath presented
to the quartet by the B0hemians' Club,
of which Franz Kneisel is president
This wreath occupied the place Of honor
in the centre Of the platform.

pelIate Division Finds

Tho writ issued b. Justice James c.
Cropsey. Of the Supreme Court, Brook.
Ign, ordering Mayor Mitchell. Controller
Prerdergast and other members Of the
Board Of Estimate to appear before him
in answer to a charge that the pro-
posed West Side agreement with the
New York Central Railroad would jeo-
pardizc important city interests, was
set aside yesterday b. the Appellate
Division OF the Second Department. All
five judges concurred in the opinion.
The case for the city was argued by
Charles f. Hughes.
The court held that the section Of
the city charter under which the order
was issued could be applied TO city
officials only whe. .hey have shown
delinquency, have misappiied funds, or
broken the law. The court found that
Justice Cropsey was not warranted in
directing the examination Of the city
officials upon the papers presented 20
him.
The history OF the proposed West
Side plan was touched upon IN the
opinion. and the court said:
mo great public improvement can
be carried out without serious differ
ences of opinion as TO its wisdom, or,
perhaps, legality. 1t would be intoler-
able Il, in respect 10 every pending
proposition before the Board of Estl-
mate and Apportionment, from build
ing a subway or bridge TO acquiring
land for a schoolhouse, all the heads OF
the departments Of the city could be
hailed into court and cross-examined
by disafected taxpayers or even by
some other hostile official, with no re-
suit except publicity. It is much bet.
ter that proceedings of this kind should
be confined to the legitimate purposes
of the law"
The court pointed out also that no
action whatever had yet been taken by
any city official and that none could
be until after the injunction now pend
in- in connection with the same matter
was vacated. Hence the Cropsey order
was not only unwarranted. but unneees-
sary. The trial Of the injunction SUIT
has been set for April 10, before JUS
tee Manning.
