LOOKS LIKE A MUSICIANS' WAR.
The American Federation of Musicians Pass Reso-
lutions Regarding Theatre Orchestras Which
Will Have Wide Bearing Want Army Bands
Unionized.
The American Federation of Musicians,
in convention in Buffalo, N. Y., the closing
days of last week, passed a resolution which
lias in it every prospect of a bitter war be-
tween the Federation and the theatre man-
agers of the United States, both local and
traveling.
This resolution forbids members of the
Federation, who constitute the bodies of lo-
cal orchestras, from playing under the direc-
tion of any leader who is a member of the
Musicians' Mutual Protective Union of New
^ ork. Nearly every musical director who
travels with a theatrical company is a mem-
ber of that organization. If the resolution
is carried into full effect it will precipitate
orchestral strikes in nearly every theatre in
the country, and result in breaking one of the
two rival musical organizations.
An effort to bring all Government army
and navy musicians into the ranks of the
Federation has been begun. I. j . Masten at
Cleveland introduced a resolution at the con-
vention which was referred to the committee
on law, regulating the number of bandsmen
with each regiment of soldiers, their salarv,
etc. ' In brief, the rules provide that there
shall be a bandmaster general, to rank as
colonel, who shall have charge of all the
bands in the United States Army. Tt shall
be his duty to select all instruments and in-
spect regimental bands once each year. There
shall be an assistant bandmaster, with the
rank of major, to act under the orders of
the bandmaster general. For each regiment
of infantry, cavalry, engineers and each of
the ten artillery posts in the United States
u band shall be stationed. The bandmaster
is to rank as captain, the chief musician as
a sergeant major, with a salary of $60 per
month; a drum major to rank as first ser-
geant, at $40 per month ; two principal mu-
sicians to rank as duty sergeants at $52 per
month; two corporals to receive $38 per
month, and thirty-one band musicians to re
ceive $35 per month each.
The regimental bands shall play for all
guard mountings, parades, funerals, at regi-
mental divine service and military concerts,
but shall perform no other duty. They are
forbidden from taking part in civic functions
or in any way competing with civilian musi-
cians.
Resolutions were also introduced to have
the delegates meet in executive session, to
pay the president a salary of $1,500 per year,
and the secretary-treasurer $300 per year,
and providing a home for aged and decrepit
musicians who are unable to further support
themselves.
About one hundred and fifty delegates
were in attendance.
