WENDELL PHILLIPS.
11.
London, M^rch 27.
FWUips's ppeech had been all through one to
rtir deep resentment. The atmosphere of the
Jli^ic Hall was soothing with fierce passion.
£U<i it scorned likely enough there would be a.
rJph for the platform when he had finished. If
It had come It would have been met. The little
band of armed men who concerned themselves
about his safety never left his side. But there
was no rush. The plans of the enemy were of
a different kind. The audience passed quietly
c*.;t of the hall. A police officer came to tell us
that there would b<» trouble outside. A mob — of
coarse, a broadcloth mob — had assembled.
v.'ia: the mob intended only the leaders of it
know, but he assured us that thf police were
rtrorsr enough to deal with it. But he said Mr.
Pbfllips's friends should so with him hen he
Iff! tho hall, and keep with him.
There were. I think, not more than half a
dozen of us who were armed, — L.<» Barnes. Hin
ton, Redpath. Charles Toiler and one or two
others. "We told Phillips what he was likely to
meet, aii»i that w«- should walk next to him.
"W's:<-r» we got to the outer door we found the
jviie^ disputing with the mob the narrow
jias«s>er<\ perhaps lifiy yards long, from the hall
to Winter Ftroot. Ii was Flow work thrusting
these fjisturbfrs out. bf-eause Winter street was
crowded with iii<* main body of rioters, and
there was no room for more. But the police
knew their business. ;iii<i inrant to do it. and did
it Ir.side the passage thor«» was not space
enough for an effective attack, even had not the
police been too strong-. But it took us. I fudge,
rome fifteen minute? to make our way from the
hall door to the street.

Once out in Winter street, they formed in a

wfld rushes, there was the tremendous pressure

police L'rid good. Down Winter street to Wash
tog Etreet, along Washington street to Essex
Etreet, and in Essex sir^-et to the door of Phil
lir-s's house, the mob kept us company; oozing
and purging slowly on; reviling and cursing all
tiie Tray. They thought they would have a
chance at the house. l"jt the deputy chief had
ts.li<?n cossesslon there in advance, and when
the door opened we passed comfortably in be
txreen ihe police lines. It had taken us an hour
w m ■•- from the hall to the house. The dis
taa • Is a short ha2f mile.
It had been a murderous mob. Philips'? life
vas aimed at and had been in imminent danger
during that hour. The spirit of murder was
Bbroad. The i»:li'." warned us>. They thought

I weal I found Fliiilij-s a.s cool a.s usual;
the usual sunshine in bis blue- eyes. 1 told him
what I had heard :ro:n th'- police and that I
thought his house ought to be garrisoned for the

fiiends know there is dangtr and will gladly
csKDe." lif- seemed a little .skeptical and asked,
*"VV::; \,-:,i come?" "Certainly." I explained to
Hitj our plans. He went into the back parlour
tr.d i.r' 'light out an ugly-looking pike. "It was
Jo!.:. Crown's,** he said. No weapon could be
£»ore unfit for lib-:- ir. a narrow hail or on wind

found the table laid; with food and drink for a
anch larger army. The night passed without
fc'irrr:. as did following nights, but neith- r our
tirflaace ri"T t;:~it <>f tho police relaxed.
During those days and long after Phillips
»-a!ked the streets of Boston with his hand on

say?" -He would disbelieve It. as I do."
Our talk ended. I thanked him. but said his
friends would find us ready— that I should, of
coarse, consider what he had said confidential,
b-_t It would .not alter our purpose. He wished
me to teD Phillips, mentioning no names, and I
might tell any of our party who could be trusted.
Evidently be hoped they would be more im
pressed than I was. i did tell Phillips, who said.
"You seem to have queer friends." I said some
thing also to the two men who were to be sta
tioned at the ende of the platform where the
steps were, leading to the platform from the
body of the hall; the two most dangerous points.
The only change they made in their plans was
to double the number of these outposts.
Rom morning, when the convention assem
bled, till the noon recess, and then all through
the afternoon, the Temple was a scene of con
fusion, disorder, uproar; rioting even, but of no
violence. The deep gallery opposite the platform
was thronged by the rioters. The formal busi
ness of organization once over, they broke In
upon every speech. Nobody was heard. Phil
lips, with all his tact In dealing with such gangs,
could do little. Now and then a sentence rang
clear. A message had gone from the Temple to
the State House, where Governor Andrew s.it
waiting, and watching the course of events. An
answer had come back by word of mouth, and
had been misunderstood, as oral messages com
monly are.
In h lull, Phlllips'e voice was heard In a direct
appeal to the gallery-mob: "We have a mes
rrom the Governor. The State Militia Is oi
Its way to the- Temple and will sweep that rab
ble wherp it belongs. -Into th- calaboose." The
rabble thought !t over for a while in silence, but
again. When the adjournment came,
3 said to i "I am g^ins- to Governor
Andrew. Come."
We found Governor Andrew in hi? room at
lei -domed State House of Mac
■ ' ';s cordially an'! listened while Phil
lips si ■ - case. Phillips urged that the
rj Society had a right to meet, a right
to transact business, a right to the free use of
which was a right attaching to
citizenship In Massachusetts; and a right to be
bed when that right was denied. Prima
rily, he said, it was the business of the police to
r ■ - and give protection but the police,
■ng under orders of Mayor Wig ti n. i
- plain duty. "Therefore." said Phil-
I cn;r>.e to the Governor of the State to
safeguard citizens of the State in th*=- exercise
of their right?" Said Governor Andrew:
"Mr. Phillips, what do you wish me- to do?"
I sufficient force of troop? to Tremont
to put d '.vn the rioters and protect law
■ Izens in tl • xercise of 1
. ts."
The Governor sat b<=hiii'; .-. table °n which lay
' the Revised Statutes of Mas*
■- •• H< opened it. r aid:
"If yiu wish tit 5 , as Governor, to act, show
■ ■ statute which gives :n<~ the ]■ '' '
Phillips was not to be turned asidp. He
■ tones elightlj
■ •■ law right. Th« -
eh I appeal is a common law power, in
" ■
of the sta - -
But Andre .v said again. "Show me the stat
ute." ar.d again. "Show me the statute," and
from that he was not to be moved. Seeing; that
his mind was made up, Phillips turned away
abrui^tly, saying to me, "Come." and we de
parted. A? we went downstairs Phillips said
"I will never again s{'*-^-:k to Andrew as long as
I live." And we went back to the Temple, know
ing at last we had nothing to depend on but
ourselves, and our revolvers.
Ajrsin during the interval my friend came to
me. He said: "You will be allowed to hold
your meeting this moon, though not without
interruption. But the attack I have warned
you of will be made this evening, and I once
more beseech you to stay away." He knew, of
course, it was impossible What took place after
that in the councils of the rioters I know not.
I have always supposed that my friend, a. man
well known In Boston, went to the Mayor and
laid the case before him. Ido not know. "What
is known is that before the hour when the so
ciety was to assemble in the evening, the Mayor
closed the Temple. His decision was not im
parted to us. Phillips and I drove to the Temple,
and only on arriving heard what the May had
done. He was a weak Mayor, disloyal, incom
petent. But he had perhaps prevented a trag
edy. I think Governor Andrew, aware of the
probable course of events in the South and at
Washington, desired to avoid thing like a
conflict in Massachusetts. He said as much to
me afterward. That was his excuse.

NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUTE, SUNDAY. APRIL 11. 1909.
MUSIC
OPERA AT THE METROPOLITAN.
A Record and Review of the Season.
With representations of "Madama Butterfly" In
i the afternoon and the concluding drama of Wag
; ner's "Ring dcs Nibelu'ngen" (which had been the
i dominant feature of an extra week) In the evening,
j the twenty-fourth regular season of opera at the
, Metropolitan Opera House came to an end. It was
I carried en by the seventh dynasty of managers
j which has had control of the fortunes of the estab
| lishment since it was built, in 1883, and has caused
; more gossip, curiosity, wonderment, speculation and
! surprise than any of Us predecessors. The elements
j of speculation and curiosity will still endure for a
j considerable space, for to all close observers it
! must seem that there exists more demoralization
i at the end of one year of the administration which
j succeeded that of Helnrich Conried than existed
i when that manager retired from business under cir
; cumstances which threatened a public scandal. Tha:
, threat .still hovers over the institution, for Mr.
j Conned has not been paid the purchase money
■ which his erstwhile associate:? agreed to hand over
| to him, bo that they might inaugurate a new ad
■ ministration, and whether or not they shall meet
| the obligation is become a matter of legal adjudi
! cation. The new administration began its career
amid Internal perplexities and turmoils, and It is
: possible that there will be another reorganization
! before the plans for the next season are definitely
I laid down.- Meanwhile the present time Is more ap
j propriate lo retrospection than to speculation touch
i ing the future. Let us first have the record:
i The season began on November 16, 1908. The
subscription was for one hundred regular perform
' ances in twenty weeks, ton Monday, Wednesday.
Thursday and Friday evenings and Saturday after
■ noons. The prospectus published a change of plan
i In respect of the Saturday night performances which
had been given for a number of years. Those at the
reduced prices which had thitherto prevailed were to
be limited to the first twelve weeks or the season and
the last two. The others were to be at regular
rates. From the en<i of February till April a
series of special performances on Tuesday and
Saturday nights was projected. Wagner's "Parsi
( a was to be resumed for the customary holiday
performances, and there were to be two per
formances ihe proceeds of which were to go into
a pension and endowment fund, the establishment
of which, it was hoped, would help give greater
permanency to the working forces of the Institu
tion. There was a promise of a large crease of
the orchestra, as well as the chorus, not only to
give greater brilliancy to the local performances,
but also to make possible a division of the com
pany with less, injury than used to ensue when it
became necessary to give two performances on the
same day-one in the Metropolitan Opera House
and one in Philadelphia or Brooklyn, as the case
might be.
These plans were carried out practically to tne
letter, Mr. Gatti-Casazza reinforcing the Italian
side of the house and Mr. Dippel the German, with
artists, scenery and choristers as they thought best,
under the supervision Of the executive committee ;
of the board of directors of what became the Met
ropolitan Opera Company as soon as that style
could be legally adopted. The management found
it loss easy to keep its word in reference to the
repertory. Eight novelties were promised, namely,
D' Albert's "Tienand" and Smetana's "The Bar
tered Bride." in German; Catalanl's "La Wally."
Puccini's ■■L" Villi" and ikowsky's "Pique
Dame," in Italian; Lapara's "Habanera," in
French; Frederick Converse's "Pipe of Desire," and
either Goldmark's "Cricket on the Hearth" or ,
Humporinck's skinder." in English. Only
the first four of these works were produced. A
promise that three operas of first class importance
—Massenet's "Mar^'ii," Mozart's "Le Xozze dl
Figaro," an( Verdi's "Falstaff"— would be revived
was brilliantly redeemed. To the subscription sea
son of twenty weeks one was added for Wag
ner's Nibelung drama and extra performances of
"Alda" and "Madariia Butterfly." and Verdi's
"Requiem," composed in honor of Manzon!, having
been twice brilliantly performed in the Sunday
night concerts, which extended through the season,
was repeated instead of an opera on the night of
Good Friday. The extra performances, outside of
those of the last week, were the holiday repre
sentations of "Parsifal" on Thanksgiving D3y. New-
Year's Day. Lincoln's Birthday and Washington's
Birthday, and benefit performances for the French
Hospital the Gorman Press Club, the Music School
Settlement and the Pension and Endowment Fund
benefit. To the latter one of the Sunday night con
certs vus also devoted. At the operatic benefit per
formance, as a!?o at a special performance, at
which Mme. Sembrich bade farewell to the operatic
stage in America, the programme was made up of
excerpts from various operas— fact which must be
borne in mind (as must also the double bills at
regular performances) when the following tabu
lated statement of the season's activities is studied.
The table which now follows gives the list of all
the operas performer: In the order of their produc
tion and the number of representations given to

To arrive at the sum of the company's activities
during the season there must be add,ed fifteen per
formances given in the new Academy of Music, in
the Borough of Brooklyn; twenty-four perform
ances in the Academy of Music, Philadelphia, and
four performances In the Lyric Theatre. Baltimore
Brooklyn and Baltimore were privileged to hear
one opera which was denied to New Yorkers—
"Hansel und Gretel."
There was aii unusual number "f artists new to
S'\v York i" the company. With Giullo Gatti
«-asazz;i, the Italian gener.-il manager, camo Arturo
Toscaninl, who. though an Italian, chose Wagner's
"Gfitterdammerung'* as the opera In which to make
a striking demonstration of his extraordinary abiii
titrs as a conductor. it was he too, who prepared
the revival Of "FalstafT 1 and the production of th«
two Italitn novelties. "r>e Vilii" and "I-:'. Wally."
His assistant In the Italian department was Signor
Spctrlno, to whom was intrusted the Italian ana
French operas of lighter dramatic calibre. if the
two (ierniaii conductors, Mi Mahler and Mr Hertz.
neither was h newcomer The former brought
about the revival of "Lo Nozze di Figaro" and the
production of "The Bartered Bride." two of the
most - • successes of the season. Mr. Hertz
placed "Ti'tland" on the stage, anil ridded to his
long agnei lan record the first perfornmr.ee hearJ
in. America of an unabridged .' '• •■ singer "
Singers new to the Metropolitar were Miss Emmy
Destinn (whose ensajjem^nt had been effected by
Mr. Conried some two years before). Mines. A Ida
Gay. Jl Paaquall, L'Huillier, Ranzenberg and
Flahaut (none of first class importance*, anJ
Messrs Araato (an admirable t>arytone)* Grass),

Interest Will be found In a record of tiie individual
doings of tli«- company's most admired singers.
Mine. Sembrich saiiK throe times on Monday even
ings, three tim<;.s on Wedneniay evenings, three
tlm«-s on Thursday evenings, three times on Friday
evenings, i).: .-•■ times on Saturday afternoons and
once on a Saturday night. Una . Earn* - tang four
times on Mondays, three times en Wednesdays and
Thursdays, twice on Fridays, four times on Satur
day afternoons and once on Saturday evening.
Mme. Destinn: Seven times on Mondays, thr«e times
on Wednesdays, four times on Thursdays, seven
times on Fridays, six times on Saturday afternoons
and twice on Saturday evenings. Mme. Homer:
Five times on Mondays, four times on Wednesdays,
three times on Thursdays, twice on Fridays, three
' times on Saturday afternoons and ' four times on
| Saturday nights. Miss Farrar: Five times on Mon
: days, five times on Wednesdays, seven times on
! Thursdays, once on a Friday night, seven times on
| Saturday afternoons and five times on Saturday
! evenings. Miss Fremstad: Once on Monday, three
1 times each on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays,
j once on a Saturday afternoon and four times on
| Saturday evenings. Mme. Gadskl: Once on a Mon-
I day, three times on Wednesdays, twice on Thurs
days and Fridays and once on a Saturday night.
Slgnor Caruso, the most admired songbird of them
all, sang six times on Mondays, three times on
Wednesdays, four times on Thursdays, five times
: on Fridays, seven times on Saturday afternoons
i and three times on Saturday evenings. Slgnor
[ Bond, who was kept employed in concert out of
the city chiefly after the departure of Mme. Sem
brich, sang twice on Mondays, four times on
Wednesdays, five times on Thursdays, three times
on Fridays, four times on Saturday afternoons and
twice on* Saturday nights. Mme. Morena was not
only a late comer, but her repertory was confined
to German operas; she sang once on a Wednesday,
: twice on a Friday, twice on Saturday afternoons
; and three times on Saturday evenings. There is
( no large curiosity touching the lesser lights among
the ladies or the men who. like Messrs. Burrlan,
Schmedes, Jora, Anthes, Soomer, Feinhals, Scotti,
Amato and the rest, who made excellent perform
ances possible but whose names upon the pro
gramme caused. little if any fluttering of the heart I
among the patrons of 'the opera house.
The operas in which Mme. Sembrich sang were
"Traviata," "La Bohemc." ••Rigoletto," "Lucia dl
Lammermoor." "L'Elisir d'Amore" and "Le Nozze
di Figaro." She made her farewell on February 6
at a performance in which he» fellow artists and j
the public paid her tributes >{ admiration and af
fection such as were probably never received by
a singer before. On February 15 Mme. flames took |
her leave of the Metropolitan stage without pre- \
liminary notice, and therefore also without cere- I
mony, though she was made to feel how gratefully [
she lives in popular appreciation. Her operas in j
the season were "Tosca," "Aida," "II Trovatore" j
and "lie Nozze di Figaro." To the successful re- ;
vival of the opera last mentioned Miss Farrar con- i
tributed a large factor, Shu also appeared In

A painful and pitiful incident of the season was j
the vocal shipwreck suffered by Signor Caruso. After
the first week of March he was unable to sing be
cause of an affection of his vocal organs. At the
last matinee of the subscription season and again
last Wednesday evening he made ill-advised efforts
to resume his duties, but the consequences were
distressful to his connoisseurs and seemed so
threatening to his physicians that it was deemed
advisable to relieve him of his obligation to go
West with the company. Whether the injury to his |
voice is temporary or permanent cannot be said, |
bu* the collapse which has come has been appre
hended for two or three years by all who could ap- j
preciate how he was doing violence to his wonder
ful voice by vicious use of it. His operas were
"ATda" "Madama Butterfly.- "La Traviata." "Tos
ca." "Carmen." "Faust." "Rlgoletto," "Pagliacci." |
"Cavalleria rusticana" and "Manon." Slgnor j
Bond's operas were "Traviata," "Rigoletto." "La

The theatre was well filled .it both performances

sympathy of her hearers with her warm and
dramatic singing of the par! Rita Fornla sang

"I am tiiixluus to do all I can for American
fclngt-r.s. if they have the voice, sta^e presence ami

MAYEVJCTMRS.YERKES
Health Permitting, U. S. Receivers
to Ask Her to Leave Home.
Dr. Henry H. Whitehouse, physician of Mrs. Mary
Adelaide Yerkes, widow of Charles T. Yerkes. said
last night that the condition of his patient, who
has been dangerously ill in her Fifth avenue home.
was somewhat Improved. Mrs Yerkes is. however,
not yet aware of the presence in her house of two
detectives, who have beer, placed there by Harring
ton Putnam, temporary receiver of the Yerkes es
tate, under appointment of Judge Ward, of the
United States Circuit Court.
Whether Judge Ward decides this week to make
permanent the temporary' receivership obtained by
the Underground Electric Railways Company of
London, Limited, or dissolve? the same, it is cer
tain that there will be a long drawn out litigation,
with Mrs. Yerkes fighting alone against the other
Interests involved.
One of the Important points to be litigated will
be the claim of Mrs. Yerkes to the title of the
house at No. S&4 Fifth avenue, built by her late
husband. Mrs. Yerkes declares that her husband
grave_her titie to the property, which is valued at
about $3,000,000, and that subsequently she trans
ferred title to her husband on the promise of cer
tain considerations, which were never forthcoming.
The charge of Mrs. Yerkes Is that the present title
as recorded Is, therefore, fraudulent.
According to 11. C. Dickinson, of counsel for
Mrs. Yerkes. the estate- Is entirely solvent, and
that with proper administration theie will be suf
ficient funds to pay all creditors and still leave a
balance. Instead of Mrs. Yerkes trying to keep the
creditors out of their money, as has been intimated.
he said. Mrs. Terkes'a several actions so far have
been for the purpose of conserving the interests <•'
the estate and rehabilitating its .holdings There
are in th» care of a committee In this city, saia
Mr Dickinson. Consolidated Traction Companj
(Chicago) 4M per cent bonds which at par are
W Another question that will probably have to he
tried in court as a part of the litUatkm that will
likely tie up the estate indefinitely Is Mrs. }«*** s
title to the valuable art collection In the Fil ave
nue house, which she. claims under bills of s»_e
from Mr. Yerkes. Mrs. Yerkes. it Is said main
tains both the house and the gallery out of her own
r7r 7t o "s rC understood that If the recHvershlp to vphfjjd
the detectives now on guard in day * n * nl «
shifts in the house will stay there for some tlm»
longer, and that if her health permits an effort
will be made to evict Mrs. Terke* from the house
that she claims as her property On account o.l f?
condition the presence in the .house of the m.pu
er'B detectives, or -caretakers." as they are called,
is still kept from her knowledge.
