MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
FAMOUS VIOLIN CHANGES HANDS.
Instrument of Bergon2i, Stradivarius' Best Pupil,
Dated 1733, is Well Preserved.
The Viennese violin expert, Herr C. H.
V r oigt, became possessor the other day of a
violin in a wonderful state of preservation
by Carlo Bergonzi, Antonius Stradivarius'
best pupil. The instrument bears the
original label, "Carlo Bergonzi, Cremona,
1733," and comes from the Tarifios collec-
tion. The violin, which is covered with the
most beautiful original varnish, has now
become the property of the German Consul
General, Freiherr Alfred von Liebig, who is
also the owner of the famous "Lenan Jo-
sephus Guarnerius."
THE OUTLOOK IN BALTIMORE.
A small goods department head who took
a run out of New York on Saturday last to
Baltimore, Washington and Philadelphia to
'"feel the pulse of the trade" for his firm, got
back Tuesday, and in referring to the trip
said: "So far as the musical merchandise
trade goes the fire left the Baltimore trade
unscathed, though H. R. Eisenhardt's Sons
had a narrow escape. Of course, I sold noth-
ing, but in speaking of future business a local
firm believed the fire would prove a blessing
in disguise. To repeat his own words, "it is
just what Baltimore needed to wake it up; we
have been a dead town long enough, and now
we propose to show the country that there is a
lot of energy and aggressiveness here, and we
think that with the feeling of determination
now shown on every hand here—including
Thomas Carey, piano salesman of Ver-
the music trade, if you please—this will be a montville, Mich., is dead. He was widely
hot town for business of all kinds when the known for making sales direct of Chicker-
new deal is completed."
