NEW YOnK. Sept. 14. Influenced by
better Liverpool cables, lower temperatures
In tho SoUth and heavy Government con
sumption riKUf t' 1 .mm market this
morning- opened strong-, with prices of the
months up to March snowing- pains of 11
to II points, May being 22 points higher
and July 2S points.
The late options wcro nrfected more by
the consumption statement than the others
because trading- had already started before
the report was received Uccent large bulla
were the leading buyer and there was a de
mand from Liverpool for the near positions,
although foreign aalei were noted In the
distant options. Commission houses also
purchased.
The early ndvanco carried December con
tracts up to 15.78, or 26 points above last
night's clonlnff, figures and 80 points nbove
the low level of Inst Monday morning.
The market met rather heavier offerings
at this level and there was some selling,
which looked like hedging from the South
west, but there wa a broadentng fresh de
mand, which looked as though the bull
proposition was nttractlng renewed follow
ing. The realizing encountered nround 1B.86
for January was sudlclent to cause re
actions of 3 or 4 points from the best, but
offerings seemed to be rcndlly absorbed and
tho market was steady around midday.

BAND SEASON IS OVER, BUT WW
SHOULD PHONOGRAPH FANS WORRY?
Recent Recordings Furnish Fine Program Material for
Concerts These Cool Autumn Evenings Variety of
Numbers Described More Listed in Catalogs
4f
Dy tha Phonograph Editor
Although the park concert band eaon
ended with Labor Day, owners of phono
graphs have tho opportunity alvraya at
hand to havo their band programs at
home these early autumn evenings when
the chill In the air makes the veranda, too
cool for comfort
A very Interesting record Is "Iluy Dlas
Overture," played by tho band of 1!. M.
Grenadier Guards, which has Juat been Is
sued by the Columbia Company. Mendels
sohn aald of the composition: "It gave me
more fun than anything I ever composed,"
Though It only occupied him three days, the
Muse worked hard and wonder muslo result
ed. It opens with a buret of sound;
trumpets announce tho approach of royalty ;
the mualc takes on a majestic Tone ; and
toward the end n. solemn melody wanders up
from tho bass.
The Victor Concert Orchestra offers two
porta of Grieg's ever-popular Teer Gynt
Sulto, No. 1, "Anltra'a dance" nnd "In the
Hall of tho Mountain King." The third
movement of this popular aulte, scored for
strings, accompanies the dancing of Anltra,
the beautiful daughter of a Bedouin chief
with whom Peer Oynt, now disguised as a
prophet. Is enamored. The music la charm
ingly expressive of the sinuous, lithe, grace
ful movements by which the dusky maiden
rivets the chains of Infatuation round the
heart of the false prophet.
Tho American Symphony Orchestra plays
a double Edison record, Inclusive of the
three porta of Alexander Lulftnt'a "Bal
let Egyptian," which was dancod hero
In spectacular fashion by Paxlowa nnd
her corps de ballet at tha Metropoli
tan Opera House at the opening of the
last musical season Of all the many bal
lets Lulglnl composed, the "Ballet Egyp
tian" Is the most popular. Tho ballet Is In
three parts, the flrat two Riven on one aids
of the record, and tho third on the other
eiue. I'arts l ond 2 are In n"TapId,
whirling tempo nil through. The basio
theme has that mystlo charm suggestive
of Egypt, nnd tho rhythm calls to mind a
nimble corps of dancers flitting to and fro.
Part 3 of tho ballet opens with an andante
movement. In which the harp Is prominent,
The ensuing theme Is In a melancholy mood,
slow nnd sedato. Later on the allegro
rhythm Is heard again, but only for a mo
ment Two double records are performed for the
Victor by the Iturtado Brothers' Royal
Marimba" Band. These are on ono "Caval
lerla Itustlcana," Intermezzo, Mascagnl. and
"Fading Leaves," sercnata, Carroll; artel
on the other "Artist's Life Walts," Strauss,
and "American Airs," medley. Including
"Dili Pickles." "Sleep Baby. Sleep." "Amer
ican ratrol," "Olrl I Left Behind me,"
"Dixie," 'Tankee Doodle." When Sebastlsn
Hurtado, of Queriallenango, Guatemala,
flrat began experimenting with th MarlwlB
It had only one keyboard, with but elgh,t notes
n the seals. Mr. Iturtado added other keys
and greatly Improved tha tone, gradually
perfecting the Instrument until It became
capable ot producing beautiful effects. His
boys became Interested, and some of them
began to play the marimba at six and seven
years of age. The young men soon beeamej
famous In Guatemala and finally decided to
make a tour of. Europe. Their success on
the Continent was Immediate and crowded
houses greeted them In Pari. Vienna,
Budapest. Berlin, London and many other
cities. After their triumphal tour Ui
Hurtados returned to Guatemala, but were
soon encaged for tha Panama-Pacific Expo
sition, where they made a success, and were
awarded the Medal ot Honor.
'I
Hero Is a record for the patriots of
it: "Medley of American Patriotic Airs,"
a new record from Columbia. The Co
lumbia Band excels Itself in this stirring
rendition of tho battle songs of our fore
fathers. If those who believe America Is
not "ready" will turn this medley loose
anywhere In the U. a A., they may hava
cause for embarrassment. We all love
to hear these old patriotic airs. Even
the baby Is enough of a patriot to ap
plaud them.
If the man from Missouri wants to be "'
"shown" a new waits that will overcome
his skepticism and make him feel right
at home, ho has but to listen to Colum
bia's late recording, "Missouri Walts," This
cnarming waits waa adapted from an
original melody procured by J. C. Appel
and arranged by F. K. Logan. Prince's
Orchestra plays It In the usual Prince
fashion, and It Is predicted that "Missouri
Walts" will prove most popular with the
dancers of every State In the Union,
