ARTURO TOSCANINI TO TOUR WITH LA SCALA ORCHESTRA Visit to America Will Last Ten Weeks and Expense Has Been Under written by Some of Best Known Music Patrons. BY EMILTE FRANCES BAUER. 1 NEW YORK. June 19. (Special.) . In announcing an American I tour of Arturo Toscanini with I the orchestra from La Scala of Milan. Loudon Charlton made one- of the greatest managerial "coups" in many years, and the name of the manager no less than of the distinguished con ductor who has long been an idol of the American public assures the dig nity and success of the undertaking. This plan was worked out by Mr. Charlton with the co-operation of Ugo Ara, who made two trips to Italy in order to carry out every detail in conformity with the laws of both countries. It might be that never again would it be possible for the orchestra from. . the sreaX old opera- house of Milan to leave during (the height of a season, but inasmuch as there will be no opera at La Scala asl yet during the coming season it wtlJ be not only a possibility but a much desired opportunity. The orchestral and its illustrious conductor are tt remain here ten weeks and, as it will probably be the only one it will ever make, the interest is of the keenest. In response to Mr. Charlton's wires to the different musical centers he could already book the attraction twice over. It iz estimated that It will cost not less than a quarter of a million to handle the tour which has been underwritten by some of the best-known music patrons - Of this country, such as Andre de Coppeti Mrs. F. S. Coolidge, Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, M. Delano, George Gould, Concluded, on Faso 3.
