Doc. 23. Its light undlmmcd by the passing nf Its greatest luminary of rocent years Enrico Caruso . the Metropolitan Opera has reached the height of what Its social and professional sponsors acclaim as tho moat suc cessful season since the world's eyes were focused on New York as the hub of the operatic universe. Not, offlrluls or tho lopern said today, that a great gap has not been left In the raukB ot tho artists who have made it so ruinous. Caruso's place, they declared, cannot bo flll C't Vn a few months, or oven in n lew ycurs. Hut his death has serv ed to diiflect the Interest of opera goers from the brilliancy or the In dividual slnmr inul to widen it to embrace tlm onc.-a itir and thti grout, thonuh 1-ss w. ll-known stars, ho nlk'hlly are drawing ruiltlliiitcs to the historic Rr.oviw.iy niidltorlum. (Irent rhansos have taken nln.'e In the opera as a social institution, they deduce. Ths bocIa! lde of the gatherings there season by seit Kon, has again taken on the aspect It woro a generation ago. Once mora It Is the brilliant show place It was In the 80's and 90s. Nightly, regardless or the namo or the tenor or the soprnno wud Is to slug, box es, stalls and chairo from orchestra ! pit to "peanut gillnry" are at aj premium, and every lout or stand-j ing room In the shadowy horseshoe' iKioiit tho wnlb Is solid Willi the; .masB or music lovers who would rather stand three n,nrt a ball hours! thi.n inlsH the 'pe'rforinu'lo.

I Apace with the changing custom In tlresH nnd the ettiiuetto or tna nntr'acta, the public bin mastered Its post helium aversion for Ger man oporn, manifested In 1919 by threuts of violence that would en sue on their presentation. j Twice this season tho stately mniimres of Wagnerian opera have resounded In the ears nf audiences' that have, tnxed tho capacity of the house, and "Dlo Tote fitndt," new to American devotees of the nrt, was the vehlrle upon which Mme. Marie Jeritza, a Viennese, took a cosmopolitan audiemce by storm at her debut. A tow nights later the same Im posing daughter or the rormer ene my country tore and shook Into dls hevelment her coronet or shining golden hair through the passionate scenes ot "La Tosca" a rolo long regarded as the oxclusivo property or tho American Idol, Geruldlne Far- rar whllo un American audience dissolved InCd tears and Interrupted the scene with an outourst of ap plausei and "bravos" such as sridom mars the serenity ot New York's bluso first nlghters. As to tho much heralded succes sor ot Caruso tho operatic mnoa troB declare they are seeking none and hope to find none. After tour ing Kurope most oT last summer. General Mnnager Glullo Guttl-Ousai-za returned with many new skngers added to his company nnd several new operas tor his repertoire. But he announced that while Caruso's place In the hearts ot his admirers must vemafn unruled, tho roles he made ramous would be sung by the great tenor's rormer colleagues, Au- dlslo, Hilda, Criiul, .Martlnelll and a halt doz:ni others, with pertllle, a new comer trom oversea. "Time aily," he declared, "and the Judgment or n fickle public can determine who the eventual idol of the American opera will be." !Pt Anrlatert Press) MANCHESTER, Eng., Dec. 22. New York is the principal ireo gold market, and all the world owes her money, but London still remains the world's financial center. This was the keynote or un address by O. Jl. Hobson, financial editor of tho Man chester Guardian, at a meeting of the .Manchester and District Bank, ers Institute-. 'Though America's loans to Eu rope run into thousands of millions sterling, America has not yet learn ed the art of foreigm Investment," Mr. Hobson said. "She is not able or willing to lend to foreigners at rates competing with London rules. Again, despite tho remarkable suc cess of the Federal .Hessrve i Sys tem. New York lias never fet been able to establish a proper discount market, the smooth nnd economical working ot which Inns done so much to popularize the bill on London all over the world. "Although London has lost a cer tain amount of business to New York; though the genial drift of thd world's wealth from east to west must continue to give New York far greater prominence as a financial center than she Jind, before the war, yet London's pre-war po sition has not been very seriously nrrected, nor need 'it lie yet, awhile," the speaker went on. : ' Referring to tho tendency nmong hanks to amalgamate, Mr. Hobson observed that high banking author ities agreed that hut lor this oon" solidatlon movement, British banks would not have been able to weath er the slump. ; The Inherent sound ness ot the- British banklaig system. he concluded, hud stood the strain and no disaster Jiad befallen as com parable to the ennapsa or the Mer cantile Bank of , the Americans. For the next few years, the course of British banking, be predicted, would be rather In tho direction of con solidating the position already won than of entering now rields.
