Now that our Eastern contemporary has apolo-
gized for publishing the editorial advertising what
he now admits to be a fraudulent award to Antisell,
let us hear from the Chicago paper which committed
the same indiscretion.
R. M. BENT & Co., New York, are having a large
sale with their cabinet boudoir piano.
ERNST GABLER & BRO., New York, report trade
^greatly improved, and they expect as good a fall
trade as previous years.
CONOVER BROS., New York and Kansas City, Mo.,
are getting out a new catalogue. This firm is mak-
ing rapid strides to the front, their pianos being re-
ceived with favor wherever introduced.
A PIANO-FORTE railway carriage is being built in
Birmingham, England, for the London and North-
western Railway, and the London Queen explains
that "appliances will be provided by which the sound
of the carriage wheels will be deadened so as to pre-
serve the harmony of the music."
ERNST G ABLER & BKO., New York, have just
added a new style fall-board to their pianos. It is a
great improvement on the others, although those
formerly in use were considered excellent.
GEN. HENBY K. OLIVER, one of the musical judges
at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition, died at
Salem, Mass., on August 12.
BOARDMAN & GRAY, Albany, N. Y., have taken
L. E. THAYER, the popular traveler of the Ft.
temporary rooms on Broadway. As soon as possible
they will have erected a much larger factory than
the one destroyed by fire, and then will push the
the trade for'all it is worth.
Wayne Organ Co., has returned from Europe.

THE organ stops made by Denison Bros., Deep
River, Conn., are well known to the trade for their
good appearance and reliable quality, and we under-
stand they bought the good will and business of the
Crosby Manufacturing Co., which was discontinued
early this year, and can, in addition to their own ex-
cellent variety, furnish any styles which that Com-
pany formerly made. Some of the organ manufac-
turers have had considerable trouble from using
knobs with worthless faces (made by a Western
concern now out of the business), and Messrs. Deni-
son have had quite an additional business in replac-
ing these with their own reliable work.
R. W. TANNER, Albany, N. Y. manufacturers of
piano hardware, etc., states that business looks much
brighter. They are running full time and having a
large demand for their new pedal attachment. It will
be well for manufacturers who do not use this attach-
ment to look into its merits.
A MEETING of the musical merchandise importers
-of this country was held in this city on the 18th inst.
The meeting was attended by all the leading men
in this line.
