SXUBBED BY COALITIONISTS
Count Cziraky Finds None to Listen
to His Message.
VIENNA, SepL 24. Count Cziraky. who
yesterday was appointed by the King
Emperor, Francis Joseph, to negotiate
with the leaders of the Coalition parties
In the Hungarian Diet, with a view to the
formation of a Hungarian Cabinet, had a
conference with these leaders today at the
Hotel Bristol lasting for an hour and a
half.
It is said that the Count received from
them a written declaration to the effect
that he would be unable to assume the
responsibility of government on the con
ditions imposed by His Majesty, as these
conditions were directly In opposition to
their personal views and also In opposition
to the maridate of the people at the last
election.
Count Cziraky then left the conference
In order to report to the King-Emperor,
promising to return with His Majesty's
reply. Alter an audience of the King
JSmperor, Count Czlrakj' returned to the
hotel and found that Count Julius An
drassy. Count Zlchy. Baron Banffy and
Francis Kossuth had departed for Buda
pest and that Count Albert Apponyi, the
old representative of the coalition, had
gone to join his family at Weidlingau.
This apparently brings the negotiations
to a close.
It is admitted here that the situation
is now worse than ever, and Count
Cziraky's .mission Is considered hopeless.
Considerable excitement prevails in po
litical circles, and the developments of
the noxt few days are anxiously awajted.
The dlsappointmert by His Majesty's
attitude Is not confined to the supporters
of the coalition. Francis Kossuth, Baron
Banffy and Count Adras3y returned from
Vlonna tonight, and were given an en
thusiastic reception at the railway station
by an immense gathering. It Is expected
that public opinion will stand solidly be
hind the coalition for some time to come.
Hungarians Will Not Accept.
BUDAPEST, Sept. 24. All parties
ftere discuss without excitement the
meeting between the King-Emperor
and the coalition leaders Saturday ami
the conference between the leaders and
Count Cziraky today. They describe
the King-Emperor's conditions as an
ultimatum which cannot be accepted
by tho Hungarian nation. The entire
press is united In warning the people
to act with reserve, pointing out that
prudent observance of the law is their
best weapon. V

NAVAL BASE IT SINGAPORE
GREAT BRITAIN TO PURCHASE
EXTENSIVE DOCKS.
Faces the Results of the New Strate
gle Situation in the
Far East.
LONDON. Sept. 24. The fact that the
British government purposes to establish
a vast naval base at Singapore, which
was announced, by the Sunday Observer
with the suggestion that this was the
first tangible result of the new Anglo
Japanese alliance and the conclusion
of the Russo-Japanese "War. affords the
newspapers an opportunity to discuss the
situation of using Singapore as a base,
which was announced some time ago
when Admiral Fisher outlined the re
organization plan.
The newspapers now point out the tre
mendous strategetic value of Singapore
as guarding the gateway of the Pacific
and when open to Japan's war vessels as
giving Great Britain and Japan the upper
-hand over the other European countries
where the Far East is concerned. Some
of this morning's papers are Inclined to
dwell upon this phase of the acquirement
of the Singapore docks, as though Just
at the time it were a demonstration of
power by Great Britain. But the gov
ernment's Intention to purchase the docks
at Singapore has been an open secret
for many months, and according to good
authority, Ihe British government is sim
ply facing the result of the new strategic
situation in the Far East and providing
her navy with convenient docks at Sing
apore, which is the center of the Far
East.
The Japanese alliance permitted the
withdrawal of five battleships from the
China seas and there is no intention In
times of peace to dispatch a battleship
to the Far East. The three cruiser
groups The China, the East Indies, and
the Australia squadrons will remain as
before.
Meanwhile, the extensive doqks of the
Tanjong Pagar Company wlil be pur
chased at a price to be fixed by the ar
bitrators now In the Far East, of which
board Sir Michael Hicks-Beach Li the
umpire, and Great Britain will bave one
of the finest naval bases in the world and
one which, in the event of war, would be
of the highest strategic value.

CONSPIRACY IS ALLEGED
Eleven New York. Manufacturers to
Be Arrested Today" for Conspir
acy to Violate the Con
tract Labor Law.
NEW YORK. SepL 24. After eight
weeks of careful preparation the United
State District Attorney of this district,
will tomorrw, according to reliable au
thority, cause the arrest of 11 heads of
manufacturing concerns of this city on
warrants charging them with , having
conspired, through the medium of an em
ployers' association, to violate the con
tract labor law bythe Importation of
foreign workmen. The penalty of con
viction is a fine of not less than J1CC0 nor
more than Jl 0,000 or Imprisonment for
not more than two years.
It Is understood that the Department
of Commerce and Labor Is directing the
prosecution and has through Its own
agents, assisted by operators of the secret
service, prepared the casw against the
accused. This has Involved many months
of Investigation and also the keeping,
since January last, of four men, English
tile-setters at Ellis Island. It is upon
the evidence of these four men, backed
by an array of corroborative depositions
that the Government chiefly relies.
The evidence in the case goes back to
the lockout by the Tile. Grata and Man
tel Association, an employers' organiza
tion, of the men of the Mosaic Tile-Lay-era
and Helpers' Union of New York
and vicinity, August 6 of last year. To
make the lockout a success. It Is charged,
the employers association sent one of Its
number to England and caused advertise
ments to appear In papers in England and
Germany, offering tile masons $5 per day
for eight hours labor in the United States.
Fifty workmen. It Is alleged, were Im
ported to the United States at tho in
stance of the 11 accused men and were
Instructed to swear falsely when ques
tioned at Ellis Island by the Immigration
officials as to their reasons for coming
to America, and especially to swear that
they had as yet no employment In this
country. It Is also said that the men
were furnished with the address of one
of the accused and ordered to report to
him.
Two weeks after the men were Import
ed and the lockout began. It Is alleged, the
accused caused the English workmen to
be discharged, on the grounds that they
were not familiar with American tools
or the method of working in this coun
try, and were therefore useless. Some
of these men got home as best they could,
but four of them carried their grievances
to agents of the Department of Com
merce and Labor and rendered Informa
tion on which an Investigation was based.
Since then they have been undor deten
tion at the immigrant station oq Ellis
Island.
The men accused in the complaint which
Is made by the Immigrant Inspector at
Ellis Island are: Arthur T. Mart, of Mart
& Law ton; Joseph W. Lantry, of "W. H.
Jackson & Co.. president of the Tile.
Grate & Mantel Association Employers
Organization; Charles E. Lawton, Elmer
Alexander, of Alexander Reed & Co.;
Bernard D. Traltel, of Traltel Bros.;
Charles J. Bogart. E. B. Currier, of E.
Bradley Currier & Co.: Charles Slrrlne, of

PIANOLA EXHIBIT
TO COMMENCE
. THIS MORNING
A Wonderfully Complete Expo
sition That Marks an Epoch
in Musical Life.
A Most Comprehensive Display of the
Pianola and of the Weber, Sleek, Whee
lock and Stuyvesant Pianola Pianos ; of
Orchestrelles and of Aeriolas, Which
Make Musicians of Everybody. Two
Weeks at Eilers Piano House.
A few-years ago an Instrument made
Its appearance at Eilers Piano House
which has done more toward the develop
ment of musical taste, musical education
and musical appreciation than has been
accomplished by any other agency.
It Ja needless to say that this Is the won
derful Pianola, which, with Its several
kindred Instruments of more recent date,
make possible the rendition of the choicest
of music to any and every member of the
household, the unskilled and untutored
music lover being as much at home with
the Pianola, a Pianola Piano, or an Or
chestrelle, as the most accomplished musi
cian. Nearly 1000 of these Instruments are now
to be found In the homes of refinement,
culture and wealth of- the Pacific North
wesL all of them supplied by the house
of Eilers.
The Pianola Piano, as its name indi
cates, is a combination of a piano and a
Pianola In one complete; compact In
EtrumenL The Pianola Piano has been aptly
styled " The First Complete Piano."
for the reason that It Is the first
piano ever produced which can be
played with artistic effect by
everybody, irrespective of any pre
vious study or knowledge of music. In
tfie light of this Twentieth Century cre
ation, all previous pianos, requiring a
long and tedious period of practice before
their owners could make use of them,
seem Incomplete.
A Few Prices
In Stuyvesant Pianola-Pianos we offer
this morning for the first time the choicest
Instruments In mahogany, oak and walnut
cases, with metrostyle. at JSO), on terms
of JS0 down and $12 a month.

anos are also represented by one or more
specimens of every catalogue style. In
cluding the new French or dull-finished
Circassian walnut case. Prices are 5550
and J7CO. Terms. S3 down and SIS monthly.
Columns of praise and commendation
could be written about the beautiful Weber
metrostyle Pianola Piano, but suffice it to
cay that the most painstaking, careful
workmanship and the most costly and
most desirable material Is lavished upon
and embodied in the construction of these
Webers. Prices. 0 for the small style.
J10CO for the largest so-called, orchestral
upright grand. Payments, $10) cash, and
$2o monthly.
Three advance styles of the Steck Pi
anola Piano will also be shown. Price.

anola Pianos. Including a duplicate of the
one selected by Lieutenant Peary for the
"Roosevelt" on Its Polar expedition. The
latter Is a six-octave Instrument, and
costs J330 complete with metrostyle.
The Metrostyle Pianola
- The Pianola Is a cabinet containing a
mechanism by means of which It Is pos
sible for anyone to play upon the piano,
whether or not he knows one note from
another.
On the music roll used In playing the
Pianola are markings. Indicating whether
the different passages of the music should
be played loud or soft, or fast or slow,
and also when the pedal should be used.
The Metrostyle Is the name given to
a. device for indicating the phrasing or
the time for each individual note upon
the music roll.
In form the Metrostyle Is a pointer, at
tached to the time (or Tempo) lever of
the Pianola, with which the operator fol
lows a red line which has been marked
upon the roll bv an authoritative pianist,
a Hoffman, a Paderewski. and even the
great composers themselves.
With these devices music of the highest
order, expressive and acceptable to sever
est crtlcs. may be produced by the merest
novice.
Special attention has been paid in or
ganizing the present World's Fair display
to show Pianolas of latest pattern In all
the different shadings of finishes, so that
every style of piano, from the dark, old
time ebony cases to the various shades of
later-day mahogany, walnut and fancy
oaks can be supplied to match.
Pianolas with Metrostyle cost $250 or
J300. Splendid library facilities., giving ac
cess to all that Is best and desirable In
music, are furnished our patrons at $20
per annum.
The Orchestrelle
There is. after all. no music comparable
to that of the modern orchestra.
The Orchestrelle embodies In one Instru
ment, playable and controllable by one
person, all the beauty and wonderful va
riety of tone found heretofore only In the
complete orchestra.
The repertoire of the Orchestrelle is
practically a catalogue of the orchestral
music of the world, and all this music
may be played by the owner of an Or
chestrelle. even though he be eptlrely
lacking in musical education or knowledge.
The music rolls for the Orches'trelle are
marked similar to those for the Pianola
so that the proper Interpretation may be
imparted to a composition. Interesting
descriptions of these orchestral numbers
are published and supplied to Orchestrelle
owners.
During this exposition Orchestrelles will
be shown from the simplest forms, cost
ing $150. through a vast array of choice
Instruments In oak, mahogany and fancy
walnut casings, at J3C0. $300. $600. $750. JS30,
$1200. $1500 and up to $3300.
The Pianola's Sister
Another recent addition to the Pianola
famllv Is the sister of the Pianola the
Aerioia. This little Instrument wilt be
found most desirable where considera
tions of price must be taken into accounL
No other piano-playing device, not made
by the Aeolian Company. Is superior to
the Aerlola. and It costs $1S5, $1W. or $1S5.
according to case, using regular Pianola
rolls, with library privileges same as the
others.
Do not fall to see this Interesting ex
hibiL Recitals of a more or less Im

some very sharp criticisms of the
project.
The deputation from Kostroma, for
Instance, has been Instructed that the
assembly answers neither the wishes
nor the needs of the country, and that
elections under the prevailing- condi
tions, without freedom of assembly or
of the press, are impossible. A resolu
tion frill be proposed pointing out to
the government the imperative neces

of the press immediately If the assem
