THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
ARTISTIC CABLE CALENDAR.
NEW MEN FOR SIEGEL=COOPER.
George Beechwood, manager of the In a recent issue of The Review we
piano department at Siegel-Cooper, has en-- referred at some length to the artistic cal-
gaged a number of salesmen to push busi- endar which was recently issued by the
ness vigorously this season. He is brist- Cable' Company of Chicago. It is a repro-
ling with activity himself and believes in duction of a dry point etching by Otto
surrounding himself with it whenever or Schneider. The original picture is framed,
wherever it is possible. Among those who
are to come to Siegel-Cooper are Messrs.
Coon and Aldredge from Baldwin's in Chi-
cago and Mr. Carmody, formerly with the
Cable Company. Mr. Frazer has just
joined the forces of that house also, thus
Mr. Beechwood feels well equipped to se-
cure a generous portion of the trade.
A DAVENPORT & TREACY FAVORITE.
Davenport & Treacy, 1907 Park avenue,
are having a big run on their new style F,
Davenport & Treacy piano. It is being
made in mahogany, walnut and other woods
to order. The cases are double-veneered
and solidly trimmed. The trusses and
pilasters, mouldings and exposed parts are
all solid, in mahogany and walnut. The
new style F, which is elegant in its archi-
tectural proportions and rich in case de-
sign, has the extension music desk, three
pedals (muffler), continuous hinges, ivory
keys and ebony sharps. It has a full iron
plate, especially constructed at the Daven-
port & Treacy foundry. The height is 4
feet 9,3/2 inches; width, 5 feet 3 ^ inches
and depth 2 feet 2 inches. In tone and
structural features. Style A, like the other
current styles, J, D, L, S, and T, never fails
to give satisfaction,
CUNNINGHAM'S NEW FACTORY.
[Special to The Review.]
Philadelphia, Pa., Feb. 16, 1904.
The Cunningham Piano Co., who have
just completed a new factory at 49th street
and Parkside avenue, Philadelphia, will
take possession about March 15th.
They will still continue to occupy their
present factory at 27th and Styles streets,
where they will manufacture cases. The
annual capacity of the new plant will be
about 4,500 pianos.
In talking with The Review last Thurs-
, day, P. J. Cunningham reported a quiet
trade in January, but said he thought that
business will be more conservative and
wholesome this year. "Not so much
'spread eagle' about it," as Mr. Gunning-
ham remarked.
CLOSING OUT THEIR STOCK.
Bailey's Music Rooms, who have con-
ducted a large business at 34 Warren
street, Glens Falls, N. Y., for the past two
years, will close out their entire stock
owing to the expiration of their store lease,
March 31st, and inability to secure a more
central and larger store. It is their in-
tention, however, to continue business as
soon as a proper location is found".
as may be seen, in a very clever way. The
various months are surrounded by decora-
tive effects worked out from the names of
the several pianos which are manufactured
by the Cable Company. That this calen-
dar will be treasured by recipients goes
without saying.
A. J. Bartlett, of Los Angeles, who was
expected in New York a few weeks ago
has decided to come early in March. He
was planning to leave when he became ill
and has not been able to stand the hardship
of our winter in contrast with the sunny,
balmv climate of lower California.

are not only new and extremely attractive in design,

They are notable for a tone that abounds in volume
and better still in quality. The leading trade papers,
dealers, and musicians have spoken in the highest terms
of these creations. We will be pleased to answer all
inquiries regarding them.
We also manufacture a high grade, popular
priced instrument which is steadily enlarging its
sphere of popularity in all sections of the country.
