State's Chamber
Of Commerce Has
150th Birthday
Qne Thousand Members
Hear Felicitations Read
From Britain's King
Two Governor? Speak
Edge Urges Building of Ve?
hicle Tunnel ; Whitman
Promises War Support
One hundred and fifty years ago last
night twenty New Yorkers met at the
Fraunces's Tavern, which stood at what
now is the corner of Broad and Pearl
Streets, and organized the Chamber
of Commerce of the State of New
York. About a thousand members
gathered at 66 Liberty Street yester- !
ciay noon to celebrate the chamber's :
150th birthday party.
While the meeting was a birthday
eelebration, it had a war atir.esph.--re.
The little gathering a century and a
half aira also probably had a tinge of
war flavor. E. H. Outerbridge, presi?
dent of the chamber*, read this:
"The founders of the Chamber of
Commerce and the founders of the
American Union were one and the
same body of men. When they met
on April 5, 1768, to establish their
commercial society they had been for
three years in the forefront of the
steadily rising tide of indignant op?
position to taxation without repre- '
sentation. which was to culminate
seven years later in the Revolution.
They were engaged, some of them un?
conscious 1 v. in founding a free and in- ;
depender.: Republic at the very mo?
ment wh< n they came together to form
a union of merchants in the interests
of the peaceful pursuit?, of-commerce."
Felicitations from King George
Mr. Outerbridge read the above from
"A Chronicle of One Hundred and
Fifty Years." which is a history of
the chamber compiled by Joseph Buck
lin Bishop in collaboration with the
committee in charge of anniversary
celebration arrangements.
The chambeT received anniversary
felicitations from 'he King of Eng?
land and two birthday presents of
historical interest.
One present was given by John I.
VTaterbury. a member of the anni?
versary committee. It is a chair from
Fraunces's Tavern. It is said to have
been George Washington's favorite
chair.
The other gift was a gavel made
from one of the hand-hewn oaken
rafters of the tavern. Robert Oly- ;
phant, president of the Sons of the
devolution in New York State, pre?
sented It in behalf of the society. In
accepting the gavel V.r. Outerbridge
said:
"Does ,* not typify to us the hearts
of oak which these great men of the
past possessed? And is this not the
symbol from time immemorial of law
and order, and should we not take this
m?mento in the spirit that we, too,
now in this great crisis of our nation
must prove that we have hearts of oak,
unbending and -strong and sound and
true? Now that all the world is di?
vided into two ?reat camps-these who
believe in liberty and freedom ar.d
those who believe 'might is right'?
ihould we not declare that we will
wield this aeeptre of law ar.d order
.;-.- -. until those who wish to live
bv the sword have perished by the
?word and anti we have reestablished,
' like -.'-.. symbol, law and order, justice
ar.d :'- edom once more for ail man?
kind'.'"
Two Governors Are Speakers
The Governors of New York and New
Jersey were among the speakers. Gov?
ernor" Eu;:'"- urged the speedy building
of the proposed tunnel for vehicles. -
Governor Whitman-, after dwelling upon
the great part the Chamber of Com?
merce -as played in the past of the
city ar.d nation, said:
"As a citizen of this city and as the
Qsvemor of your state, I take great
pride in the record of the members of
this ?':?-.::? ?zation and of the citizens
at tr and ! ate in the manner
.r. ?.',-':. ?? ? have apheld the national
government in the prosecution of this
war.
"I know that until this war is over
the government will continue to have
'?'?? une unanimous support. In your
behalf, 'ore, I pledge to the
Pr?sider.*, of the United States our re?
sources, our funds, our men and our
sacred honor."
A pl';a for "100 per cent American?
ism''was made by Dr. Nicholas Murray
Butler, president of Columbia Univer?
sity.
"Only a few days ago," said Dr.
Butler, "under circumstances that per
hap? might have confused the issue,

On the Screen
"Hearts of the World," Newi
Griffith Picture, Scores
Big Success
After having seen "Hearts of the
World" there are certain melodies I
which always will mean certain per?
sons to us. For instance, we never shall
hear "Connois-tu Le Pays" without
thinking of sweet Lillian Gish and Bob- I
bie Harron, the Girl and the Boy. "Peek- I
a-Boo" will always bring to mind the !
"Littlest Brcther" and the air which !
Anna Held used to sing in her heyday. |
"Oh, it's lovely to be married" always
will mean Dorothy Gish, the "Little
Disturber."
The orchestra had a wonderful Way '
of introducing the characters m the i
picture with their own special tunes,
and it was most effective. To indicate ',
the various moods of these people the !
same tune was played as a dirge in ?
a minor key or was syncopated. It may
have been done before, but we never !
have heard it.
The Griffith picture had its first pub?
lic presentation last night at the Forty- ,
fourth Street Thentrr.
Being comparatively new in the mo- ;
tion picture world we never had seen a ''
Griffith picture before, but, of course,
ovcrv one has heard <>r the Griffith
girls an i the Griffith spectacles, which
are different from ail else on the
screen.
It isn't, that the Griffith picture has
more suns in it than any other war
picture. It isn't because it shows life
in the trenches as it is, for all motion :
picture houses show authentic war
pictures in their reviews. It isn't be- !
cause the photography and the ex- j
teriors are wonderfully beau/iiful, nor:
because the east, is well chosen and i
the story interesting.
It is because every character in the '
play is real. Either Mr. Griffith has ;
a genius for selecting his casts or else
he has the power to infuse in his
actors something of his own genius. :
But whatever it is they give it back
again to the people who watch their
shadows on the screen, and it is a thing
not to be analyzed.
Dorothy Gish as the "Little Dis- j
turber" does quite the most delightful '
bit of character acting that it over has :
been our good fortune to witness.
She is wilful and truculent and de- j
fiant and brazenly coy. and the emo?
tions are registered on her saucy little !
face with the rapidity of lightning. A |
Sash and it is gone.
Just as though she had been playing '.
her part on the spoken stage, her en- j
trance- and exits were gretted with ;
rounds of applause.
Lillian Gish as "The Gir,l" was quite I
as clever in an entirely different sort i
of r-'''e. She is a combination of all the
Griffith girls who have gone before.
Robert Herron did some remarkable
work in the r?le of Douglas Hamilton,
The Boy, and little Ben Alexander was
the sweetest child the screen has ever
offered. In the last horrible scenes,
when his limp body was discovered
under the ruins of his home, a sigh
went up from the spectators, and then
they found that he was only fast
asleep.
Robert Anderson is another one who
is able to make you understand every?
thing that a person like Monsieur
Cuckoo is apt to think, in love or war.
There was not a jarring note in the
whole performance, and the actual war
scenes were woven in so cleverly that
it was impossible to tell whether one
was gazing on real emissaries of the
devil or on supers dressed up in hel?
mets to represent the Hun hordes. At
any rate, th* spectators would take no
chances, and they hissed loudly every
time a German or a pseudo-German
came within range of the camera.
The story telis of two American
painters who live in France. The Girl
Marie is the daughter of one painter
and Douglas the Boy is the oldest son
of the other. It is spring when Marie
comes home from school and the two
children fall in love with each other'
?a 6 because they are handsom? and
voting and the buds are bursting.
The Little Disturber, too, falls in
love with Douglas, and we felt then
and there that if he could resist her
he was going to be able to resist any
temptation he might encounter during
his natural life.
The Great War begins while Marie is
busy making her wedding gown, and
Douglas and all of the sweethearts and
husbands of all the women march away
to battle.
Then comes the story of the war,
with its scenes which are so much
more real than anything which has
be?n done before.
The picture shows the terrible strug?
gle for existence by those who are left
behind in the devastated villages and
the cruelty of the Huns to the women
and children, who are compelled to
work in the fields.
Lillian Gish does some wonderful
work in her scenes when she wanders
our into No Man's Land to look for
her bridegroom, and, not realizing that
he is dying, she falls exhausted beside
him and lies down with her head on
his heart, which has ceased to beat.
The happy ending for the central
figures does not make the story seem
unreal, for it all comes about so
naturally and there is so much that is
sad and grewsome. But through it all
was the glad feeiing that it was not
their war, but our war, and when the
swarms of heavy Germans fell on our
boys in the trenches and attacked thorn
with bayonets and the butts of rifles
there was not a man ? no,nor a woman
? in the theatre who would not have
given his or her life to have killed
one of the Huns. That is what a Grif?
fith picture does to you.
Mr. Griffith finally appeared in an?
swer to the applause at, the end of the
picture, hut he stopped in the middl? of
his speech and left the starre without
finishing: his sentence. He thanked
those present and asked them to ?up
port with their last ounce of strength
? the men fighting in the war. H. U.

Freshness of color and vivacity of
handling characterize the paintings of
Albert Andr?, now exhibited at the
galleries of Durand-Ruel. Landscapes
add quaint bits of old towns, which
glow with the warm sunshine of South?
ern France. "Jardins a Endoume,"
showing a walled garden overlooking a
turquoise sea, charms the senses with
its drowsy content.
A painting of great charm is "Le
Th?," showing a young woman seated
against a window through which is
seen a sun-flooded landscape; the cool
interior, with its pink walls and tea
things on the table contrasting the
vivid color outside. The still lifes are
more soberly painted, but hold the at?
tention with their fine sense of ar?
rangement. The exhibition will close
April 20.

exhibiting until April 18 a collection
of Persian miniatures, illuminated
books. Persian rugs and antique
faiences, along with modern naintings
by Agnes E. Mayer. ? Many fine minia?
tures of the sixteenth, seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries are shown. The
modern paintings, mostly portraits, are
well handled, the nude of a young girl
showing luminous flesh tones and a
fine quality of light.

Mme. Ober's Suit
Upheld by Court
She, Is Not Barred as an Enemy
Alien, Justice Shearn Says
in Opinion
The decision of Justice Gavegan, in
the Supreme Court, that Mme. Mar?
garete Arndt-Ober, German soprano, for
several year.s with the Metropolitan
Opera Company, can sue the company
i for breach of contract, although she is
1 an enemy alien, was sustained by the
j Appellate Division yesterday.
Mme. Ober is suing for $50,000 dam?
ages. She alleges she was released by
the Metropolitan management, despite
her contract, which still is in effect.
The Metropolitan Opera Company
sought to restrain the prima donna
from prosecuting her suit, on the
ground that, being a German, she could
not sue during the war. Justice Gave?
gan held that the trading with the
enemy act did not apply to the singer.
Justice Shearn, writing the unani?
mous opinion of the Appellate Division,
held that, while it is against public
policy for a resident in a foreign coun?
try engaged in war with this country
to prosecute an action in our courts, a
different situation is presented in the
case of Mme. Ober, who resides in this
country.
"It appears that the plaintiff is not
an tnemy alien within the President's
proclamation," said Justice Shearn. He
added that, if she were, she would be
entitled to maintain her action so long
as she was guilty of no misbehavior
during her* residence here.
Masa for E. de Sadciee.
The requiem mass to be offered for

Laurette Taylor Not at Her

Laurette Taylor made an interesting
experiment yesterday afternoon in a
special matinee at the Criterion The?
atre, when she played three of Shake?
speare's heroines. Miss Taylor brought
enthusiasm to her task ar.d abandoned

But this time the experiment sue

Katherine also suffered from the i:

Nevertheless Shelley Hull read his!

Bernstor?f s Son and American
Wife Sued by Her Ex-Husband
Baron Radeck Involves Former Mrs. Marguerite Thomason,
Now Wedded to Count G?nther, in Libel Action
Which Has Stirred Berlin Society
AMSTERDAM. April 5.?Berlin so-1
ciety is much stirred by a suit for libel
against Count Christian G?nther von
Bernstorff, son of the former German
Ambassador to thy United States, by
Baron Walter von Radeck. a member
of an old Prussian military family who
lived for many years in England.
.' un? Gunther's wife, who was Mr?.
Marguerite Vivian Burton Thomason,
of Burlingto i, N". J., and a number of
others, including tito wife of one of the
generals commanding an army on the.
Western front, also are defendants in
the suit.
Baron von Radeck and his wife, ac?
cording to the "Rheinische West?
f?lische Zeitung." were divorced in Oc- '?
tober, 1917. and she subsequently mar?
ried Count von Berrtstofff.
The result was a physical encounter
between the tw3 men in winch von
Radeck tore the epaulettes from von
Bernstorlf's ' in. Thereupon, von
ii i'ii storff ;? i that von Radeck
was not capable of giving satisfaction
;>s a gentleman, and he charged vein
>\ :'? spying for En rland.
This resulted in van Radeck leaving
the army and von Bernstorff beiti? ?
punished by a military court. The
baron now charges that von BernstorrT,
with fourteen others, caused his di?
vorce and dismissal from the army by
circulating untruthful reports. I
Count Christian G?nther von Bern
slorfF and Mrs. Thomason were mar
ried last December 8. He is twenty
six years old and in 1913 was a clerk
in the offices of Speyer ? Co., New
York barkers. He entered the Ger?
man diplomatic service toon after the
outbreak of the v.-.-.r.
Countess von Bernstorff is about
thirty years old. Bier first husband
was ..- American, from whom I e was
?vorced, af whic m .:rie I
".i von Rade. She b ira in
Si.-oud.'burtr, Penn.. of Engli h p - nts
lopted by E. 3 Tl .
Burlington, N. J. A.'ter her first mar
- age she met Baron von Rad c . n
New York and. they were marr i ?
London in 1911. Two year? later she
filed Buii for divorce on the grounds o?
cruelty and the case dragged on until
last October. Four years ago the
countess f< . heir to an estate of $100,
000 freni hc-r foster mother.
Baron von Radeck formerly was an
attache of the German Embassy it)
London. His father was a general ir
the German army.

Mme. Matzenauer Sings to
Aid Educational Fund of
War Savings Committee
Mme. Margaret Matzenauer gave a
'. song recital yesterday afternoon at
Carnegie Hall in aid of the Educational
' Fund bf the National War Savings
, Committee. Her audienee was large,
and, standing under a huge American
flag, she gava of her very best.
Mme. Mataenaucr is one of thoso
rare artists who aro equally at home on
the operatic and concert stages, and
- r nging yesterday was characterized
to a high do~ree by the virtues nec
c sarj to an interpreter of ;;on<rs. Her
versatility was never nore evident from
the fact that she was equally e*T;*etivo
in English, Italian, Rn^sian, Norwegian
and French. There were no German
sonirs on the programme, ard Mme.
Matzenauer sang "The Stir Spangled
Banner.''
it would be useless to single out any
part euiar numbers. It is enough to
that she sa: ir Morley'a "Sweet
--- . Cetne to Thy Lover," Grctcha
? ? r "In the '? pp -." Grieg's "?hi
? ' ig Is I iod," Rhen?-Baton'e "?I]
' des Pi-tales i- irs." Saint
Saei "Gu Mrs et Mandolins," tw
songs wr tten ar.d dedicated to Mm?
Nat snauer by her accompanist, Fran1
I.a Forge, and songs by John Alaei
( arpenter and Marion Bauer. She wa
in splendid voice, and her use o
mezza-voce surpassed anything she ha.
i yet ?hown in New York. 9
