TROOPS ON MARCH WELCOME TOBACCO fear of \Smokes\ Shortage Dispelled by Generosity of Fnnd Donors. OA TiDS TORTHAY DELIGHT riprmi Association Exhibitors Will Sell Birds to Aid Soldiers' Cause. The smoKes that worn gent over by The Ft'V Tobacco Fund last month would have carried greater com- fort to the American soldiers than at any of tvrr.s, to Judfre by the hearty response from them. It Is a freer and fuller because the men have more time to write to Tub SC.v and to contributors t Us fund, and shows that they are ftlll ciy anxious for the smokes. U fill the soldiers with delighted sur- prise that Thb Sun smokes find them htl they are on rapid march Into Ger- many \ dolnsr their spell on the nhlne. That rart of their uneasiness because thrv were not to be sent home was due tn tha fear of a tobacco shortage Is evl; ftnl from what they write. As soon as that fear was dispelled by the continued erMpt of fund smokes the soldiers ly bucked up and took notice of the reir jcenes about them. They say them-f.lv- s that whatever home sickness they flt during the holidays vanished In e'euds of tobacco nmoke. The Eoldlers commont, and everybody interested In the fund on this side of the Atlantic should comment on the fact that on Thanksgiving and Christmas days there was a timely distribution of tljarettes ana (ooacco Dy ins oon Fund. To accomplish this big thing was a ir nuroose of Tiir SUN Tobacco Fund. The cards of the soldiers that have lately trrlved settle any doubt. It was accom- - llhed. \We are now at nolllngen, T.uxem turf,\ writes Sergeant Jack S. White of Hrance Brigade, Nineteenth Division, ,M advancing very fast into Oermany. But, fast as wo march, Tki Sc.v keeps race with us, and this card is meant to hear our thanks for your most generous sift of cigarettes, which we enjoy to the umnst We are on the way to 'do our pll on the Tthlne.\ Jnat I,lke Home.

The present exhibition is com- prehensive and attracted a large number or. interested people to see It as soon as the doors were opened yeBterdav. and last night there was a great attendance, prognostic of success. The birds to be sold for the benefit of smekes for our soldiers now In Germany will later be placed in a pen whero Intending bidders may examine them at leisure. The victors- - dance organised and to ha conducted by the Mlsse E. Leisaner and R. Bayer on next Sunday afternoon in the leslle rooms at Eighty-thir- d street and Broadway will be largely attended, to Judge by the number of tickets sold. The price of a ticket Is 25 cenbs. The dancing floor Is spacious enough to accommodate even more, so no one need stay away on the fear of being overcrowded. The entire proceeds from this victory dance will come to the smoke fund. Some Merry Party. Miss fiophte Tucker's smoke fund party at Reisenweber's last night merited by Its success and overwhelming Jollity air the previous notice It received. The afternoon tea drew a rreat many people and the main dining room rapidly filled after 7.

As the latter part of the entertainment held uVitll a late hour no statement can be made as to the receipts except the gen eral ona hat the guests were many and generous and the various donations to the fund were sold for excellent prices.

The Russian Bol- shevik Government for a long time has been organizing an extensive propa- ganda for revolutions In China, India and Tersla and Is now ready, as soon ni the opportunity offers, tp send agenU with large sums of money to stir up trouble throughout Asia, according to reliable advices received here. A great obstacle facing the revolu tionary plana of the Bolshevlltl Is the ex istence of the army or tne umsK uovern-men- t, which at present effectively bars the way to Asia by way of the Ural front. If. however. It Is pointed out, Ad miral Knlchak'a army becomes weakened and were to disintegrate through lack of aunnort and encouragement trie hoi hevllt plans would very seriouly thronten the neace of Asia, Tho most recent Information received from British quarter shows that Bol- shevism Is spreading In the Ukraine.

BEWITCHING MELODIES Philadelphia Orchestra Gives Admirable Concert in Car negie Hall. The third concert of the Philadelphia Orchestra, which took place yesterday afternoon In Carnegie Hall, was one ot the most comfortnblo concerts of the season. The classic and the utterly ro mantic lay down In peace together In the midst of a fine prospect of musical landscape and history. The programme began with Beetho ven s \little symphony, the eighth, which In these days offers no food for conjecture either as to Its content or the correct tempi. The second number was a concerto In A for violin and or- chestra by young (eternally young) Moxart. The entertainment concluded with the \Three Nocturnes\ of Debussy, \Nuages \Fetes\ and \Slrenes.\ Music lovers are Indebted to Efrem Zlmballst, the soloist of the afternoon for reviving the starry concerto of Moiart In A major, with its peculiarly characteristic adlo In E, a key which had a singular attraction for the com- poser. The work was written In 1775 and was dated December 20. Accord- ing to Koechel the manuscript was In the possession of Krassnlch In Berlin, but Wyxewa-an- St Folx set It down as lost Their monumental work on Moxart Is later of course than Koechel's catalogue. Quality of Performance, Lost In manuscript or not, we have the composition and it ought to ho heard oftener, for Its serene beauty, its sweet youthful freshness. Its aristocratic re- pose of style and lis lovely flowing melo- dies nre bewitching. Mr. Zlmhalist played ltxln a manner beyond all prale. It was the performance of a master thoroughly saturated with the spirit of the work and expounding its message with a purity of style and a depth ot affection quite irreelstlble. The audience readily discerned tne excellence or tne interpretation nnd recalled the violinist many times. For the Debussy number Mr. the capable conductor of the Philadelphia organl7atlon. had a chorus of women from Kurt Schlr.dler's Schola Cantorum. Theso ladles must have been much astonished at themselves, for of a certainty they did not know they could sing to well. Their undulating walls fitted perfectly Into the eea picture of Debussy and any L'lysses who closed his eyeB Instead of his ears might havo been tempted to round to. drop his mud hook and go nshoro In a small boat to his undoing. Plnylnir of Orchestral, The playing of the orchestra In the Debusy pieces was so admirable In tone and In the finish of all Its touches of nuance that It aroused (treat enthusi- asm. Naturally, Beethoven's eighth sjmphony ave no such opportunities for the wizardry of the orchestra musi- cians, but It was performed with laudable precision and a sunny transparency of tonal balance which exhibited clearly its dainty beauties Mr Rtokowskl treated the tenvd ac- cording to the precepts laid down by Von Buelow. which, when first demon- strated In this town, caused some acrlm- - onions dicusslon.

In gen- eral polish and elegance, however, Mr. Seldols playing mrougnoui ine wans gave evidence gain. His performance of the Wlenlawskl concerto further revealed a more culti- vated style.

The wholesale prices of beef, veal, lamb, mutton, pork, llvo poultry and butter nnd ejgs have taken a down- ward course In the past seven or eight days. Tho drop In prices came since the secret got out that tho storehouses ot -- the country are Jammed with enormous stocks ot foodstuffs. Tho descent has been hurried along by tho countrywide agitation In favor of the restoration of the country's food- stuffs business tn n supply nnd demand basis with no Governmental price fixing or restrictions. The open winter, which has insured a big supply of vegetables and other green stuffs which people can use as substitutes for high price meat. At., has had Its effect In lessening the demand for meats. It follows, men In tho trndo say. that when the demand lets up and the supply Is abnormally largo prices must oom down. However, prices are dropping, and It does looks as If tho consumer will be ahlo to get the benefit of tho big falling oft Just as Boon as tho retailers think they can abandon tho habit of charging high prices and lower retnll prlcei to tho point where they belong. As soon as tho consumer gets tho Idea In his head that inflated war time prices are no longer necessary and lookn around for the retailer who has accepted tho new stnto of facts and Is willing to tnko a leasonablo profit, wholesalers predict that ha will begin to think that life Is wotth living again O. Fov. tho market reporter, said last night there Is no reason on earth, In view of the present wholesale prices, why consumers generally ehould not reap the benefit of a general drop In retail prices of these commodities by Friday ana fcat-urd- at the latest. \Retallertf he said with much em- phasis,\ might Just as well make up their minds right now that we are sailing Into a lower level of prices.\ \Slnco the publication of tho storage reports,\ Mr. Koy said, \prims beef has dropped from 3 to 5 cents a pound. The lower grades aro down from fi to fi cents a pound. Lamb and mutton are from 8 to 10 cents a pound lower than they were a week ago. Veal dropped from 8 to 10 cents Inside the last eight days. Pork, heavy, has declined 6 cents. Medium light pork has come down 4 cents a pound. The wholesalo price ot llvo poultry has dropped 7 rents a pound In one week, or from 35 cents to 27 and 2S cents. \Tho price of butter creamery extra\ which was fn1 cents January 14, was Sl'i cents a drop of 6 cents. The price of creamery extras has fallen from 70 cents January 11 to 61 tfc rents to- day, or n decline of S'j cents In ten days. Eggs, Western firsts, which were 68 cents a dozen January 11, were quoted y at from 61 to 62 cent, a drop of C or 7 cents In ten days, 'Theso declines means that tilings are looking brighter for the consumers of the country, who havo long been suffering from the high costs of everything they require to keep life going. 'The open winter, which we aro now enjoying, has contributed greatly to bringing down the prices of theso food- stuffs. 'Last winter, as everybody will re member with a shiver, It was so cold that nearly a million dollais worth of vegetables and other foodstuffs were frozen In the terminals in New York, and for days dump carts were kept busy taking the destroyed stuff to tho dump ing grounds. This winter great quantities of ee- - tables have been coming In from the South. The people have been getting the benefit of them, and much of th vege- table have been used as substitutes for high prle meats. So the demand for meats fell off, while tho aupply In creased, and of course tho law of supply and demand had to work. 'This open winter nlso has helped along the hen. Although eho has been eating high priced feeds sho has been dropping eggs to bent the band and theso eggs she nevor would havo laid In such nbundanre If regular winter conditions prevailed. Ordinarily eggs Ptart to come in from Texan about February 1. Wo have been getting them for some time. Now they are being shipped from Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska.\ UNRESTRICTED SALES of EXTRAORDINARY IMPORTANCE HurKK JWHsmnii vmm nw \nm. cmr ON FREE PUBLIC VIEW 9 A.M. Until 6 P. M.
