MASTERS OF MUSIC _ N SAMPSON OPERA Caruso Scores Hit in Leading Role in New York “ New York, Nov. 16.—Some twenty Yyears ago Samson, portrayed by the Itallan tenor Tomagno, mighty song and figure, toppled the mimic | temple of Dagon upon the operatic | Philistines at the Metropolitan Opera House, Since that time music | ot | Camille Saint-Saen’s opera, “Samson | %t Dalila,” has not been heard there. | Last night the grand opera season | was ushered in with the Saint Saens’ story of the Hebrew Hercules. One hundred and fifty dollars was offered \ at the box office for a pair of orches- | tra chairs ten minutes before the cur- | tain rose, The opening brought together mas- |\ ters of music from Italy, German Austria and France. With two not- ! | in | able exceptions, the European war failed to affect the personnel of the | cast and the great majority of Ku- ropean singers will continue as in times of peace, their roles through the season. Toscaninin Missing, Toscaninin, famed as the greatest of Metropolitan conductors, was missing from his accustomed place, and Dinh Gilly, French baritone, | likewise will play no part in the sea- son's offerings. The former held by home ties in Italy, had no heart for his art so far from battlefields where | his son is serving under the Italian | in New York. flag; Mr. Gilly, caught in Austria at the opening of the war, is interned in a concentration camp and persist- ent efforts have failed to secure his release. Otherwise, the fortunes of the Bu- ropean war have falled of reflection in the ranks of the better known stars on the American operatic stage. En- rico Caruso, the Italian tenor, escaped service in the army of Italy, because he was above the age limit. Giorgio Polacco, well known to the American opera lovers, wielded Toscanini's baton, though no one, it was said on behalf of the management, could fill Toscanini's place. Ten New Singers. Two new conductors and ten new singers, four of the latter Americans appeared in the company. The new conductors are Gaetono Bavagnoli, who has won distinction in Italy, and Arthur Bodanz! a German. Of the American singers new to’' the Metro- politan list, three, Julia Heinrich, Edith Mason and Helen Warrum are sopranos and one, Henri Scott, sings I Enrico Caruso was the Samson to- night. It was the Ttalian tenor’s first appearance in the role on any stage. and scores of his admirers proclaim- ed his rendition another triumph of his histrionic and vocal art. Caruso had many curtain calls. In the prison scene, where .the blind Samson, fet- tered to a mill stone, pours out his lament, Caruso rose so the height of his vocal expression. Delilah was portrayed Py Mme. Metzenauer, the mezzo-soprano. Her singing of the second act where Sam- son was bewitched of his strength brought her, enthusiastic commenda- tion. Pasquale Amato was the High Priest and Carl Schlegel the Abi- melech, Giorgio Polacco the conduct- or, shared in the curtain calls, Mr. and Mrs. James A, Duffy of Locust street are spending the week "WHEN MY BABY WAS SICK” iERALD TOESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1915. NEWHAVEN HANDLES BIG ARMY OF FANS Nearly 40,000 Taken Into and Out Saturday of Elm City In less than four hours on Saturday the New York, New Haven and Hart- ford Railroad company unloaded at ew Haven 20,232 passengers, a rec- ord performance for a Yale-Prince- ton football game. In 1913, the year of the previous Yale-Princeton game at New Haven, 16,060 passengers were unloaded at New Haven, or 4,000 less than on Saturday. Of the total of 20,23 passengers transported on Saturday to New Ha- ven, 13,277 were carried in special and regular trains from New York, and 6,956 went from Boston and other points on the New Haven Railroad. It required the use of 23 special trains and 22 regular trains to trans- port these passengers. On the spe- cial trains there were carried 15,262 passengers in a total of 244 cars, or an average of 577 per train, and 55 per car. On the regular trains 6,970 passengers were carried in 22 trains having a total of 150 passenger car- rving cars, or an average of 317 pas- sengers to a train and 46 passengers to a car. ' . Leaving New Haven after the game, 20 special and 22 regular trains car- ried 19,678 passengers, most of whom were on special trains leaving between p. m. and 7 p. m. The special trains carried 13,307 passengers, 11,602 of whom were bound for New York city. The specials and regulars for New York ecity totaled 14,380. To Boston, Springfield and other points a total of 5,208 passengers were car- ried, of whom 1,905 were transport- ed on special trains. The total number of passengers car- ried to and from New Haven in con- nection with the Yale-Princeton game was 39,910, which compares with a total for the previous Yale-Princeton game at New Haven of 32,858, an in- crease for this year's travel of 7,052. Of this total, 26,669 were carried in special trains, an increase over the traffic in special trains in 1913 of 10,873; while the traffic in regular trains this year amounted to 13,341, a decrease of 3,821 over the figures for 1913. s There were no mishaps of any kind to mar the record made by the com- pany in the trunsporvtion of this huge extra traffic, and the entire sys- tem ran as smoothly as clock work. Of the 45 trains, regular and special, 32 were on time and the others were but a few minutes late. Fourteen trains arrived in New Haven ahead of the schedule. The total number of minutes late of all trains arriving in New Havgn during the morning of the game was 113, or an average of about 2% minutes per train. Con- sidering the unusual congestion of traffic resulting from the large num- ber of special trains this record is a remarkable one. All traffic from New York was moved by-electric current. first train to leave New York was at 7:56 a. m. and the last train at 11:25 a. m. The first to arrive in New Haven wag at 9:58 and the last was 1:04 p. m., or in ample time to go from the station to the Yale Bowl without hurry or fear of missing the kick-off. Some idea of the problem involved in moving this enormous crowd to and from New Haven, and to do it safely, and to operate the. system without interfering with regular time schedules may be gained from the fact that the operating and traffic de- partments of the company have been at work for weeks perfecting the plans and devising safeguards against mishaps. A twenty-page pamphlet was issued as a guide for the em- ployees of the company; special tele- phones were inst#jlled at various points in yards and terminals to facilitate the movement of trains; officers of the traffic, operating, engineering and mechanical departments were sta- tioned at different points on the route té look after matters pertaining to their respective departmerits in case their help was needed; and other de- city The One Minute Interviews with Mothers Whose Children are Now Well and Strong a bad cold, but Father Medicine her.” John's cured (Signed) Mrs. Ida M.

The crowd was extremely well or- dered, which helped to make the work of the company considerably easier and more pleasant. There appeared to be a well-founded confidence that the New Haven would get them to the game and take them back home with- out crowding. or delay, and this con- fidence had much to do with the make up of the trains which came into and went out of New Haven either underloaded or with sufficient passengers to flll the seats and no more.

Washington, Nov. 16.—Announce- ment of the suspension of parcel post mail to Germany and Austro-Hungary was made yesterday by the post office department. The reason ascribed is that the steamship companies refuse to accept it. Postmasters through- out the country have been instructed to refuse to accept parcel post des- tined to those countries. The Ger- man postal administration recently announced the suspension of the par- cel post to the United States for the same reason.

Col, Nov. 16.—Ben B. Lindsey, judge of Denver's juvenile court, was held guilty of contempt of court and fined $500 and costs by Judge John A. Perry in the district | court late yesterday. Thirty days | were allowed for an appeal. The case grew out of Lindsey’s refusal to disclose information in the trial of | Mrs. Berta Wright on a charge of murder. Judge Lindsey claimed the information came to him in a priv- ileged manner through the confession | of Neal Wright, 12 years old, during | the trial. An information, charg- ing the boy with the murder of his father because of an alleged confes- sfon made at his mother’s trial, still is pending in the juvenile court. Mrs Wright was acquitted.
