sestions to congress may be closed.
The matter was brought TO head
Ia Z secret Republican caucus last
night, OF which outsiders had no word
until today. The proposal considered
was the adoption Of Joint resolution
asking the National Administration TO
relinquish the railways, telephones
and tclegraphs to private control.
Objections developed on several
grounds. Members we're told that the
continued output OF suggestions to
washington and neglect Of state mat
tiers had begun to bring ridicule on
the Assembly, and that moreover the
members are not convinced Of senti-
ment in their home counties.
Action 10 Delayed.

hostility to government regulation
might become unpopular. In the back

Philharmonic Concert, Musical
Treat of Year, Attracts Few
Splendid Orchestra Needs But Support
OF Public to Take Place as
Musical Leader Here.

Such music could only come from
the hearts Of musicians" was the
sincere remark OF one worshiper at
the shrine OF Aeolus-and he ex-
pressed the thought OF many others
at the conclusion of the second
Philharmonic Orchestra last even
ing.
There were few in the audience at
the Knickerbocker theater but who
regretted the termination of the
meager one hours performance. It
was music such as Washington sell
dom is privileged to hear. 1t was
music that thrilled. that saddened,
that gladdened. that played upon the
emotions as effectively as did the
violinists stroke the. strings OF their
| instruments. as effectively as did
Conductor Heinrich Hammer control
the seventy-five talented musicians
who compose the orchestra.
Indeed. to Heinrich Hammer is due
large credit for effecting probably the
finest musical organization Washing
ton can boast OF today. In respond
| ing to an appeal from the audience
yesterday. the veteran conductor de-
CldTcu lndI ne Ildu given lOuTIeen
years OF his life and 5000 of his
fortune to promote such an organiza-
| tion here.
Hammer made a name in other
countries as an orchestral director and
came to America a finished product
This was before many leaders of
the largest orchestras Of tody had
stepped into notice. He has given
the Washington Philharmonic Orches-
ira a wonderful start, and it needs
only the backing of the music-loving
public to make it an organization
of civic pride.
Despite all this, however. II was
barely a handful that heard the in
spring concert of yesterday 1t was
noticed and commented upon by those
present.
After the concert was over and the
noises from the world beyond the
theater doors drifted in to break
the charm. murmurs were heard on
all sides expressing approval Of
Heinrich Hammers orchestra, and
voicing regret that Washington mu-
sic lovers had rallied so poorly to
so splendid cause.
Members of the orchestra have
banded purely for the love Of fine
music. They are giving their time
and energy at sacrifice to them
selves that Washington may have
