- 16 NEW YORK. Mefiopolitan Manufacturers of Managerial Success. What It Costs to Open a Seasonm in Philadelphia. Theodore Thomas and His Rival, Dr. Damrosch. The “ Bull” Movement in Railroad Stocks —Qurions Patents Selling Cheap at Aucticn, Ete, From Our Own Corrcepondent. New Yorg, Oct. 11.—Woe be to the manager who ventures to open a dramaticor musical sea- £on in any city on this contiuent except New York. For this is a jealous prople, if 1he critics are just representatives of it, and, cither the metropolis is the starting-place for things, or ey are not worth starting. Mr. Frrer, for in- stance, chose Philadelphia for the opening of his Wugner-Meyerbeer opera test. Having given this city the preference last winter in his origi- nal Wagzaer venture, possibly be thought it only fair to favor another sty this time. He will no doubt gee the error of his ways when he reads, n a metropolitan daily, tiat his action in the matter is *‘one of those mysteries which operatic managers ean alene be expeeted to penetrate.” And further, that *“traveling companies depend a great deal for their success in the provincial ies upou the reputstion they make in New York ”*; while, as a final and crusher, the eritic ad :s. Without 2 good * send-off ? by the N Yorkers, no great veutare is likely to succeed. How severe Mr. Fryer's blow was is evinced LY the quarter of a column devoted to the sub- jeet. Before ending with it, the jealousy and lack of torie both creep out in this singular seutence: ** Whatever the managerial reason for the selectiun of Philadelphia may e, there can be little doubt that, with a repertoire con- taining ahsolutely nothing mew, a season of German opera in New York just now would not be likely to sueceed.” It is hard to understand why anybody should feel hurt at the loss of au old repertoire, or crumble at a manager for not opeuiny in a city where he would not be likely to succeed. Then, in the face of the vaunting remarks I have quoted, it will be jnteresting tor Chicago readers to know that THEODURE THONAS bids fair to be more widely appreciated at home since lis successful cfforts in vour city. e most assuredly would not agree to the assump- tion that a guod metropolitan * send-off” is either an absolute necessity or a necessity 1o suceess outside; neither would he sneer at praise und appreciation thoush it did nappen to come from other than a metropolitan source. Ty is both easy and common to put on cheap airs apd make universal claims, but it is a rare thing 10 passess modesty and judement. Aside from_ the Thumas concerts. clas: masic i 10 be presentea by Dr. Damrosch, whom Mr. Thomas succecds as conquetor of the Philbarmonic. The series proposed by Dr. Damrosch at Steinway Hall is pot only rich in Dromise, but the matager has recognized the demand for popular prices, and tne lovers of fie music will be able to enjoy themselves without the consequences of a groaning pocke! Then there is to be a season of E E the Fifth Avenue. wl - Fis or to avoid Mr. Daly's fate: aed later ou both Italian and German operatic engagements will do somethine toward making tie _Academy of Music pay for itself, a confessvdly didicult th 10 do.

Mr. Gilmore vever fails to make a big noise, and he closes 1 very prosper- ous sum -ason. Almost before the sound of his inspiring music has died away from the vast inclosure it is, I am sorry 10 fay, to be made the scene of an encounter between Grivco- Roman wrestlers, whose miserable exbibits near]v always result in draws, including gaze- moner. Joun Morrissey was taken violently ill Tues- asy, and lor some hours his life was despaired of. The excitement caused by the spread of this news showed in part the vacancy such an unexpected event would occasion.
