When the a la carte restaurant, the Turkish bath, the elevators, and the gymnasium were added to the llet of sea going luxuries it was thought that the limit had been reached. But yesterday tbe Atlantic Transport Una, whose steam ers ply between here and London, announced the very latest wrinkle for tha oceangoing public. It la the aeagolng flat apartments they can them above 100th Street. Heretofore there have been two or three connecting rooms on the big liners dignified on the official lists as suites." The Atlantic Transport Line baa gone another atep in advance, and now oomee the real flat at sea. It will differ from the suite la that It will hare a private ball, a person who will really be the Janitor, and an the comforts of home.

Already workmen are constructing the new apartments on the steamer Minna-tonka, now laid up In London, Aa soon aa the Minneapolis and the Minnehaha arrive on the other side the changes will be made on them. Each vessel will stay two weeks in London, and if the work is not done then It will be completed at sea or while In port here. There will be two flats on each liner, one on the port and one on the starboard side. They will be built forward on the upper promenade deck In the space now occupied by the officers quarters. The front windows porta they will be called Itt the seagoing flat will look out toward the bow, so that the tenant can sit at his front window and watch the seas breaking over the vessel.

The plans for the flats show that they will be thirty feet long. The parlor will have a width of fifteen feet. The hall will extend from the front door to the parlor entrance, and on one side of the hall, with windows looking out on deck, will be two bedrooms. On the opposite side will be the bathroom and the clothes closet. The temporary tenant's name will be on the front door and a bell will announce callers.

The officers' quarters will -be moved to the deck above. The parlor will be furnished "Just like home," with easy chairs and pictures on the wall. Indeed, the homelike Idea will be carried out throughout, from the brass bedstead to the writing desk. The only nautical thing about the flat will be Its situation. It may rather startle the flat dweller ashore when he asks the purser which flat Is occupied by a friend to have the terse direction: "In the starboard apartment.

Sir." Of course It is not expected that trie tenant will cook In his flat, but even that Is not an Impossibility, for each apartment will be furnished with nn electric heater on which baby's milk can be heated or toast made after mother has finished curling her hair. JuBt bow the all important Janitor question is to be settled has not been made quite clear. An official of the line declared yesterday that it was not attempting to deal with the janitor problem. It Is certain, however, that the janitor in the seagoing flat will be a black-coated person, who will prefer to be caled stew ard. He win answi belL turn on the heat, and do other work Just like his brother ashore.

By engaging a seagoing flat It will be possible for a family to go aboard at one port and remain In the seclusion of the flat until the other side is reached. Meals can be served In each flat. The line, it is said, witn that end in view, has arranged so that the parlor or the library, as soon as the officials are informed that you do not want to use it for sleeping purposes, can be converted at short notice into a dining room. A Harlemite who ha lived twenty years in a flat stiook his head yesterday wnen tola or tne innovation. It's all very well," he aaid, but there are eome features of the -eal thing that have been overlooked.

Imagine a well-appointed flat apartments we call them since the rent was raised with no windows through which comes the eternal noise of a piano and the awful singing of tbe girl across the airshaft. Apain, what would a flat be without a speaking tube through which to deliver jour opinion of the Janitor an opinion you only deliver when many A'alls separate you. This ocean apartment is all well, but as I have said, there are reatures you win miss out on tne ueep. It is expected that the last of the new flats will be completed by early Spring, and that they will be in demand during the Summer rush-sseaeon. NEW PLAY FOR BELLEW.

THE PHILHARMONIC CONCERT. A Programme of Brahma, Grieg, and Glinka Mr. Heermann Playa. The fifth concert, of the Philharmonic Society waa given yesterday afternoon at Carnegie HalL The programme turned out. upon the he ring, to be rather bet-ter than It looked.

Mr, Safonofra strong point is not the devising of programmes, and Brahma's third symphony, orchestral arrangements of lyric piano pieces by Grieg, Beethoven's violin concerto, and tbe overture to GUnka'e opera Russian and Ludmilla ta not In- all respects a happy conjunction of styles and musical I content. The was Hugo Heermann, violinist, who was heard here several years ago when he came as a stranger from Frankfort. He now comes as an American resident, from Chicago, ktrt hla art has not suffered from Its transplantation. Hla performance of Beethoven'a concerto waa the moat enjoyable feature of yesterday's concert. It was a noble and beautiful performance, filled with the spirit of te work, eloquent and poetic Mr.

Heermann' strong and virile style, his round and penetrating tone, and bis command of the technical difficulties of the work are the solid foundation of his Interpretation, which waa that of an artist. Tbe first movement waa marred by defects ef intonation, bnt he soon corrected this fault. The larghetto moved In the serene, high atmosphere of Beethoven's Inspiration, and Mr. Heermann, in the final rondo, disclosed plenty of resources for keeping it far aloof from the suggestion of vulgarity, or at least commonplaoeneaa, which eome bare found la It. and with which many play it- It cannot be said that Mr.

Safonoff penetrated deeply Into the spirit of Brahma's 7 major symphony, one of the most joyous, fresh, and vigorous of hla Freshness and vigor were what he did not give, though he took the first movement at a rapid tempo, and the exquisite songlike third movement at a pace so rapid as quite to change Its character. Nor did Mr. Safonoff make the most of the plasticity of the themes in the first and last movements, nor bring out their definite contour with clearness r. outline. There were passages whre this melodic outline was blurred, where the essential melody did not emerge, and the fine and subtle orchestral color was muddied.

The four pieces by Grieg are from one of his very numerous collections of lyrics for the pianoforte. Grieg is strikingly economical of his inspiration. He makes piano pieces out of his songs, orchestral works out of his piano pieces. These are small in Idea as well as In compass. They are the ones that Anton Seldl once arranged for orchestra to furnish the grogrammes of his popular concerts at Brighton Beach.

They are well adapted for pleasant entertainments of this sort, for they are pretty and skilfully put upon the orchestra. They do seem rather unimportant aa contributions to the programmes of the most dignified end important orchestral concerts of this city. So does the overture to Glinka's opera Russian and Ludmilla," which may have importance in the history of the Russian, school of music, but has less for hearers of the preesnt day. Mr. Safonoff gave It a superbly brilliant and energetic performance; one Into which he evidently threw himself completely and roused his men to corresponding enthusiasm.

As far aa the performance went It was the most successful achievement of the orchestra. MUTUAL CANVASSER QUITS. Inspector Dahlburg Saya Work Interferes with His Business. Meliin M.
