the yawning difference between outlay and receipts into which they Are forced to peer every spring Uhe In nouncement Of Kammerstelns retirement was made today in the following state ment from Samuel Untermyer who conducted the jigotiatlons An agreement has been reached between Mr Oscar Hammersteln and ur jEdwardvT Btotesbury of Philadelphia by the terms of which Mr StoUsbury and his associates acquire the Philadelphia opera house property and Mr iam merstein tetlres from the field of opera In the cities of New York Philadelphia and elsewhere The Manhattan Open House will be devoted by Mr Hammersteln to other purposes As a result of four years experience Mr Hammersteiiv findsMhatthe production of opera on the scale on which ifhad been his Ambition to produce It has become IncreasinglyIncreasingly difficultyear by Tear he exao tlons of the artists musicians and otners brought about by the rivalry between the two opera houses have grown almost De yondicoritrolandhave been the occasion of such advancing prices that notwithstandingnotwithstanding the generousipatronage accorded by the public each of the houses has been face to face with ajflettclency Would CheckExactions MrJ Hammersteint is satisfied that It is in the interest of the operagoing publtc tljat these exactions shall be kept Tvlthin bounds unless weare to be deprived or opera andthat Hhe only way to vaccohv pllsh that purpose Is tchave one opera house instead jot two Aa the Metropoi Itan Opera Companyhas what amounts to a subsidy through Its stockholders it can perhaps better fumilthe puDiitr need a 4 The full significance ofthe transaction becomes plain when it Is known that Mr Stotesbury whohas beenthe most generous supporter of llrs Hammersteln Philadelphia enterprisethas been added to the board of directors of the Metro polltan Opera Company and that the future Philadelphia performances of the Metropolitan Opera CompanyTs Ill be given In the Philadelphia opera housebuiltlby Oscar Hammersteln three years ago Besides the fourteen performances there hy the Metropolitan Opera Company there will he a ten weeks season by the company from the Chicago 7Pera house which will he opened next season for only ten weeks and not twenty as originally planned Gets Costumes and Operas So this means that the Metropolitan Opera Company with its interests in Philadelphia Boston and Chicago has absorbed the Manhattan Opera House and Incidentally wiped its battling rfvaCOscar Hammersteln ont the operatic map The Metropolitan Opera Company acquires not only the scenery and cbstumes used at the Philadelphia opera house butsit acquires the rights to Louise Felleaa et Mellsande Thais and all the com posers rights to the French operas on which It has cast eimous glances There are a number4 of works In the Massenet repertory that the Metropolitan will be delighted to produce Whether or not it will take on Mr Hammersteins rights to the operas of Richard Strauss is not so certain Some of the most popular of the Hammersteln singers have been acquired by the company which under the management of Andreas Dippel is to etng in Chicago and Philadelphia Among these are MauriceRenaud Charles Dalmores Luisa Tetrazzinl and rsome of the principal artists who hae appeared at the Manhattan Opera House They will appear chiefly jn Philadelphia and Chicago although it is hyno means certain that they will not also sing at the Metropolitan Opera House Hammerstein Receives 2000000 Arthur Hammersteln who had his fa thers power of attorney and represented mm in the
