We propose to continue to throw light on the
methods of this barnacle on the organ trade, and
in this regard we flatter ourselves we are "monop-

REVIEW. Mr. Bent complained that he could not
fill his orders at present.
"What is the reason?" we anxiously inquired.
"The Dielmann tire," was the reply. "We had
piano cases in the building, and they were ready
for delivery. They are destroyed, of course, and.
how to get other cases and not pay too much for
them, is a problem I am trying to solve just now.
Behr is going to charge us an advance of 20 Der
cent , and that, you know, takes off considerable
from the profits of manufacture. I wish somebody
would start in and make piano cases and tops. He
might not be able to furnish them to the trade quite
as cheaply as Dielmann at first, for he had excel-
lent facilities for manufacture, but we could
stand, perhaps, an advance of 10 per cent, over the
old prices. But 20 per cent, is altogether too
much of a good thing."
LOOKING FOR LANGE.
We met a manufacturer the other day who had
a severe headache. "What's the matter?" we
said.
"I've been looking for some one, and I am tired
out," was the reply.
