road Of1cials.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 12.-Un'
skilled shop laborers employed by
the Southern Pacific railroad are in
conference with General Manager

already refused to accept wage re-
auctions.
All thu appeals of the various rail.

LAMBERT MURPHY's RECITAL.
Tenor Proves Interesting Despite
Limitations of His Voice.

Lambert Murphy, tenor. was formerly
member Of the Metropolitan Opera
Company, but in recent seasons has con-
fined himself entirely to the concert
field He was heard for the first time
this winter in recital yesterday after
noon in Town Hall. His programme
was arranged on unusual lines, a group
of songs by Schubert, Schumann and
Brahms standing at the head Of the list.
French songs followed and after them
came miscellaneous groups. ending with
some home brewed refreshment
Mr.. Murphy gives an interesting song
recital In spite of the limitations OF his
voice. This Is a light and high tenor. a
type of voice which does not readily
yield the variety Of color demanded by
song Interpretation.
But intelligence and artistic vision
carry this singer far. Fetis many years
ago complained that when he descanted
on the skill with which the famous
French tenor Carat prepared the plan
of an air, his friends did not seem 10
know what he was talking about. But
in these days music lovers would be
more puzzled by a recital singer who
exhibited no clear design in his inter-
pretations.
Mr. Murphy's singing displays clarity
Of design always In communicating
his design to the hearer this singer
makes admirable use OF the compara
lively narrow range of tone color at his
command, of dynamics. accent. rhythm
and pronunciation. His texts are al
ways Ineligible. How far such a
singer could go in dramatic delineation
was shown yesterday most conclusively
in Fourdrain's AUX portes de Seville"
in which he effectively sounded the note
of tragedy. Charles Albert Baker
played good accompaniments.
