THE CHICAGO. TRIBUNE PIANOS. g 156 STATE-ST. We have secured the North- western Agency for this excellent Piano, and in a few days will have a full line of Grand, Upright, and Square Pianos in our. ware- rooms, bright and new from the factory. We would say in behalf of this Piano that it does not owe the position it. occupies today to the extraordinary advertising methods and “BOUGHT” testi- monials employed by other man- ufacturers, but to the superior ex- cellence of construction, depth and purity of tone, and beautiful finish. They possess every beauty and excellence that skill and money can furnish, while in dura- bility they have no equal. While the Hazelton Brothers do not ciaim to make the only first-class Piano, they do ciaim that they make an- honest Piano. We invite all who intend pur- chasing a Piano. to call and ex- amine these beautiful instruments. 196 STATE-S7, We also keep on hand a large stock of medium-priced Pianos of good manufactures, all fully war- ranted by us. The attention of those. inter- ested in ORGANS Is directed to our Organ Depart- ment, where we keep a full stock of different makes, our leading Organ being the CLOUGH & WARREN. This is what artists say of it: Mr. Frederick Archer, the most distinguished of Enatand’s orennists, says in the American Art Jour- pal hy & Warren have succéeded In bring- ion Oran tot state of perfection N previcusly obtained, und deserve: ruBlutiuns of ail who are interested this domestic Instrument, the pop- increasing, ‘The “qualifying produce a tone se ciusely pe- 2.

ROUTSONS MUSIC, Wholesale and Retail Geaters, No. 156 STATE-ST, feinway’s. ll iialchigss Durability has been one of the greatest fests of art in all ages, and this test the STEINWAY has withstood ina manner unequaled by any other Piano that. the world kas thus far produced. This judg- ment has been rendered by not only the unanimous testimony of all the creat art- ists and connoisseurs who hare nsed and tested them for upwards of a quarter of acentury, but by the mere conservative yerdict of ihe Trade, it keing 2 well- known fact that the highest ambition of all great piano houses is to secure the Steinway Agency. - This is proved hy the fact that the leading music houses in all great cities of the world represent the Steinway instrninents today. It is also admitted by all disinterested dealers that a Steinway-Piano which has been in use for years will sell for more and tast long- er than a new instrument of other mak- ers. It withstands the severest climatic > [esa dtte] changes, and can be found retaining its | original qualities. alike in the most rig- orous Northern latitudes, the damp and humid atmosphere of the tropies, the dry air of the mountains, and the moist and changeable atmosphere of the Jake re- glous and the seacoast.

C., Nov. 5.~The Slar publishes the following: A very impbriant meeting of the Cabinet was held in President Arthur’s parlor directly after his return from Yorktown. It was of unusal Jength, and secrecy was maintained by the members, and the ominous looks ‘which follpwed all the questions relating to the subjects discussed, occasioned a good deal of comment at.the time, particularly umong the correspondents of the newspapers. Putting this and that to- gether, and “ taking one consideration with another,” the Star is enabled to presefit a tolerably accurate history of the meeting: EVERY MEMBER OF THE CABINET » was present. ‘The President, as soon as ‘all were seited, stated that he had called the members together to consider the. question of facts that had come to his knowledge he be- lieved the Government-to be entirely unpre- pared for the case. He added, with a guod deal of emphasis, and accompanying his words with a clenched fist that-caine down with some force of the table, that he would considerit preéminently disgraceful to the Government if, in the Guiteau casé, as-in the star-royte cases, the Government should con- fess itself unprepared to go on,-and become compelled.to ask a continuance, Attorney- General MacVeagh was present, and gaye’no sign, 2 } THE PRESIDENT, NOTICING 3iAGVEAGH’S SILENCE, put the question-to him directly-as to the preparation for the Government fo proceed in the Guiteau case. ‘ eneral replied. that he did ider if any part of his business to give attention to criminal prosecutions. The Presislent. replied that this was a great State trial, and that the whole country looked to MacVeazh to see that it was conducted Properly and efficiently. e MacVeagh said there was no taw or cus- criminal trials, ait said he had been told so | by Judge Jeremiah Black. * ‘The President then quickly and. SOMEWHAT ANGRILY ASKED MACVEAGH, how ‘it hdd been in the Aaron: Burr trial. “Oh, but tHat wasa trial for treason,” Mac- Veagh replied. . “Yes,” suid the President, “and this is a the Nation, and, to my mind, it is the posi+ { tive duty of the Attorney-General to take charge ot the case,” | MacVeagh then reiterated that the law nevercontemplated that as any part of his duty. ae Ws ; : ‘The President replied that the statutes of the United States authorized the Attorney- General to appear for the Governmet at.any | time,in dny Federal court in any casein which | he might deem it his duty to’ do so, and re~ | ferred. MacVeagh ‘to the partichlar section j of the law. é : j By this time there was - { A GREAT DEAL OF EXCITEMENT | around the Cabinet table. ‘The lawyers of ; the Cabinet being appealed to, they alleged with the President. 7 | .MacVeagh maintained ,his position that ! it was beneath “the dignity of the Attorney- ; General to appear in a criminal case. The ! President ther asked him if he had done any- thing to obtain counsel - to assist District-At- torney Corkhiilin tie prosecution of Guiteau. |” MacVeagh said he had not; that that was a ; duty which belonged to tHe Distriet-Attorney himselt if he desired additional cbunsel. } that was a new suggestion to him, and that ; either MacVengh-or himsetf was very ig- !norant of the law; for, according’to his reading of the United States statutes, it was made the express duty of thé Attorney- General to engage assistant counsel in any { ease where, in his judgment, the interests of the Government required it., MacVeagh said that he took a different i view of itis duty, and : DID NOT CONSIDER It ANY PART. é ! in the trial of Guiteau, or to procure addi. tional’ counsel for that pusvose, Ile said j that in the star-route cases Col: Corkhill had suggested a desire for the employment of William A. Cook as additional counsel, dnd it, and Col. Corknilt éould do as he pleased yin the matter. ‘ : The President said that the Goyernment should have able consel, and he would him- self direct, if MacVeagh declined to-do -so, that Judge John K. Porter, of New York, and Walter Davidge, of Washington, be eni- ployed .as additional counsel in the prose- cution of Guitean. MacVeagh then said that, if the. President desired it to be done, he. would employ the gentlemen named. It is said that, at the close ‘of. this ‘some- what remarkabl¢d Cabinet scene, the Presi- dent remarked that the Attorney-General’s knowledge of the taw would be greatly im- ; Proved by reading the statutes of the United States which define the-duti A TALK WITHSCOW | Wasrmtxetox, D. e j porter dropped into Mr. Scoville’s room i this morning he was going through aur im- | mense packaxe of papers.
