Formal Opening of the New Music Rooms of Sanders & Stayman, The formal opening of Sanders & Stay- mi new plano, organ and music ware- reoms, F street, occurred last night, and the large store room on the first floor wes crowded with the guests of the man- ager, Percy S. Foster. This afternoon and evening there will be a public reception, with a concert, from 3 to 5 o'clock, by Weber's Orchestra, and from § to 11 o'clock by the United States Marine Band. The entire building, with the exception of two front rooms on the second floor, the headquarters of the Christian T committee of ‘6, is devoted to play of pianos, and last night every rccm, brilliantly lighted and handsome- ly decorated, was thrown open for the in- spection of guests. Seats were provided in the store recom on the first floor, and from 8 until 10 o'clock the invited guests were treated to a musi- cale participated in Ly some of Washing- ton’s best talent. The program included s "s overture, Rosamunde, by Mr. Mrs. Bittinger, Miss Bartlett yed on two pianos; vio- accompanied on the Foster; a selection by the Mandolin Quartet; Paderewski'’s Sorata Finale, Mr. Herman C, Rakemann Miss Virginia Bestor; soprano solo, Mrs. Thomas C.

After the completion of the musicale a reception was held, and the company in- vited to the third floor, where an elaborate collation was served. ——— Senate Confirmations. The Senate in executive session yester- day confirmed the nomination of Mr. Dom- inic I. Murphy, to be commissioner of pen- sions, and then reconsidered its vote and postponed confirmation to a future day. This latter action was due to an objection made by Senator Pasco to immediate ac- tion upon the nomination of Gen, Napuleon J. F. Dana to succeed Mr. Murphy as first deputy commissione: Senator Gallinger, as chairman of the ccemmittee on pensions, reported the two nominations to the Senate, saying that confirmation was unanimously recommend- ed by the committee, and esking for im- mediate action.‘The case of Mr. Murphy wes first taken up and several Senators, including Messrs. Gallinger, Chandler, Har- ris and Cockrell, spoke eulogistcaily of him. No opposition develcped, and con- firmation was voted un:aimously. When a motion was made to follow this action by the confirmation of Gen. Dana, Senator Pasco object2d. He said that he had understood that Gen, Dana had been placed on the retired list of the army with the understanding at the time that he was old and :neapacitated, and that he thought this report should be investigated before the Senate should take action. This ob- jection was sufficient to throw the matter over. The friends of the two men concluded that courtesy demanded that notification in the two cases should go to the President at the same time and they moved a recon- sideration in Mr. Murphy's case with that end in view. The motion prevailed. The friends of Gen. Dana contended that he was quite able to perform the duties of the office, but did not resist the effort at delay to allow the investigation. The Senate confirmed the following nom- inations: John C. Tarsney of Missouri to be asso- ciate justice of the supreme court of the territory of Oklahoma. Postmasters—Rhode Island: John H.

JOHN McELROY FOR COMMANDER. He is Asked to Allow His Name to Go Before the G. A. R. Encampment. A strong movement is on foot to elect Col. John McElroy, commander of the De- partment of the Potomac, as commander of the G. A. R. He has, within the last few Gays, received several letters from influ- ential Grand Army men in the west, ask- ing for permission to present his name for commander-in-chief at the national en- campment at St. Paul in September. Com- mander McE'roy is widely known in all parts of the country as editor of the Na- tonal Tribune. His name is a household Mord in the home of the old soldier. It is believed he would be able to command a large number of votes should he consent to allow his name to be used. Col. Mc- Elroy has taken the matter under advise- nent, and will muke reply in a few days. ——_ Death of Mrs. Wheeler. The friends in Congress of Gen.
