" D . & T." BUSINESS FLOURISHING.
Daniel F. Treacy, of the Davenport &
Treacy Co., returned early this week from
a run South as far as Richmond. While dis-
cussing his trip with The Review Col. Treacy
remarked: "I had a most enjoyable trip and
met some very good piano men, men whom
by the way it is a pleasure to know, and suc-
ceeded in a business way, far beyond my ex-
pectations. I placed a number of agencies
which I feel will be productive of good re-
sults. You know it is one thing to secure
a piano agent, but quite another thing to
secure a good one. All of our agents are
live ones—I mean by that they take an inter-
est in the Davenport & Treacy pianos, give
them a fair showing, and the pianos do the
rest, and there are orders steadily coming in."

ANOTHER PROSPERITY STRAW.
American manufacturers are evidently
quite as busy as they were in 1900. At least
this is a reasonable conclusion from an ex-
amination of the figures of the Treasury Bu-
reau of Statistics which show that the total
imports of manufacturers' materials in the
nine months ending with September, 1901,
were greater in value than those of the cor-
responding months of last year, although
an analysis of the imports, article by arti-
IND. cle, shows that in many cases the prices per
unit of quantity have decreased. This de-
crease in price is so strongly marked that in
many cases, while the figures of value show
a decrease in the nine months of 1901 as
compared with those of 1900, the figures
of quantity for the same period show an
increase.

Chas. M. Stieff, of Baltimore, are sending
out a clever advertising novelty, consisting
of a bag to which a tag is attached and on
which is printed in large letters, "Don't let
the cat out of the bag." When the bag is
opened up, the cat is discovered with a card
on his back directing attention to the merits
of the Stieff piano, "which would make a
lovely Christmas present." This novelty is
bound to create some talk, which, of course,
was the purpose in mind when sending it
out.
A BI-CENTENNIAL HAPPENING.
An interesting occurrence of the Bi-Cen-
tennial at Yale, in which Morris Steinert and
Senator Depew figured quite prominently,
is related in the New Haven Palladium of
Saturday last. It appears that Mr. Steinert
while out riding found the genial Chauncey
waiting for a conveyance. Recognizing him,
he invited the Senator to join him in the rig,
and said he would drive him to his destin-
ation. In the conversation which followed,
it was found that the Senator, who is usu-
ally well informed on mostly everything, had
actually never heard of Morris Steinert
or his achievements. Before the two great
men parted it is needless to say that the Sen-
ator realized that New Haven contained a
man as notable in his sphere as is the versa-
tile Senator from New York in his.
