COMPLAINS OF DEFUNCT CONCERN.
(Special to The Ueview.)
Newark, N. .)., Feb. (>, 1905.
George Binder, of 4GD Bergen street, appeared
in the Fourth Precinct Police Court Fiiday, to
make a complaint against officials of the defunct
corporation of Schrimpf & Theiss, which had
conducted a musical instrument case manufac-
turing plant at 288 Springfield avenue until last
November. The company at that time went into
the hands of a receiver. Mr. Binder showed cer-
tificates calling for $200 worth of stock, and said
that he had not been abl3 to get any satisfaction
about the affairs of the concern. He added that
he knew many more who held certificates like
his own. Judge Sweeney told him to bring them
to court as soon as he could and something
would be done for them.

THE KNABE PIANO IN MONTREAL.
The Knabe concert grand was much in evi-
dence in Montreal, Can., during the recent visit
of Ysaye, violinist, and De Befve, pianist, and
Willis & Co., the local agents, have been receiv-
ing many compliments on the success which the
piano achieved at the interesting concert given
by both artists.
At the reception given by Professor Goulet,
conductor of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra,
a handsome Knabe grand was selected for the
function. In this connection The Gazette, a
prominent local paper, said: "It was fitting to
use the king of pianofortes in a reception 1o
Ysaye, the king of violinists." Willis & Co. are
enthusiastic admirers of the Knabe and have
done much to bring it to the attention of our
cousins across the border."
The output of Strich & Zeidler during last
month showed a decided increase over that of
January, 1904. The Strich & Zeidler small grand
