THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
ON THE TIP OF THE TONGUE.
Max Miller is defrauding eastern Con-
necticut people out of cold cash under the
pretence of being a piano agent.
Melville Clark, of the Melville Clark
Piano Co. and the Apollo Co., was in town
during a few hours on Wednesday.
R. W. Lawrence, of the Weber headquar-
ters, started yesterday for a two-weeks' va-
cation in the Adirondacks, including, en
route, a visit to the Exposition.
H. Paul Mehlin, of Paul G. Mehlin &
Sons, left town on Thursday for Good
Ground, L. I., where he will rest during the
next two weeks.
Callers at the Kranich & Bach warerooms
and factory this week included M. Sonnen-
berg, of the M. Sonnenberg Co., New Haven,
and F. A. Couzelman, Port Jervis, N. Y.
Helmuth Kranich, of Kranich & Bach, who
has been staying at Poland Springs, Me,,
for some time for recuperation, is now im-
proving steadily. Comparison of the firm';;
books for August, 1900, (1st to 20th) and
this month, show a gain in output of fully
one-third for the corresponding period.
Rudolph C. Koch, maker of the Reinwarth
strings, continues to please his customers so
well that their voluntary indorsement brings
new patrons. By his industry, intelligent
conduct of the business of which he is so
thorough a master, and the invariable sup-
ply of perfect work and the best material,
Mr. Koch has largely increased the list of
customers. Their orders, too, constantly in-
crease in volume. This latter fact has double
significance. It not only means satisfaction
given, but indicates in a reliable way that
the prosperity of the piano trade continues
apace.
Wm. J. Keeley, of Wilcox & White, gave
two very successful recitals with the Angelus
at the Chautauqua amphitheatre on Monday
evening and Tuesday afternoon. The pro-
gram, which was effectively rendered, in-
cluded a number of difficult classical selec-
tions. Three thousand people attended the
recital on Monday. Mr. Keeley's perform-
ance was warmly appreciated.
WITMARK LATE HITS.
Two numbers of Caro Roma's truly beau-
tiful song cycle, "The Wandering One,"
were given an audition at Steinway Hall,
London, on July nth. M. Witmark & Sons
have the publication of this suite-poem in
press.
Miss May Rosalyn, who is touring the
South, writes from Tarboro, N. C, that her
big hits thus far this summer are "My Eb-
ony Queen," 'Answer Me, Sweetheart, Do"
and "You'se de Sweetest Coon Dat's Born,"
all of which are from the pens of those pro-
lific writers, Standish and Silberberg.
"Absence. Makes the Heart Grow Fond-
er," by Gillespie and Dillea, has been the
means of adding to the laurels won by Grace
Mantell during the past season. She also
recently added "Sadie, Say You Won't Say
Nay" to her repertoire.

The Popular Young Supply Man Reports Progress.
E. N. Martin, the well known stool and
cover man of 13 East Fourteenth street,
New York, is one of the energetic young
niebers of the trade who is rapidly coming
to the front. He has recently made some
imposing sales, and when seen by The Re-
view said: "Business has been larger this
summer than I had expected—better, in fact,
than I have ever had since I began busi-
ness and the fall looks now as if it would
beat the record of any previous year. I
have taken additional quarters at ij East
Fourteenth street, and of course, keep my
old place upon which I have a lease until
1903. I have not had time to get away on
a vacation, other than to take a little run
out to the Pan-American and a visit to our
stool factory. I have a new catalogue now
in print which should be ready in a couple
of weeks, and if dealers want to see the very
latest thing in stools and covers they should
order a copy. Our men on the road are
sending in some satisfactory orders."
