In a cable dispatch to the New York Sun from
Kerlin it is stated that Dr. Arthur Chitz of Dres-
den, a noted musician, has discovered in a library
in Vienna some unpublished compositions of Beet-
hoven which were known to exist, but which were
missing. They are early works and are dedicated
to Countess Clary and were performed at her resi-
dence in Prague in 1795. They will be analyzed
in a musical review soon.
