The Federal grand jury to-day handod up to Judge Knot a presentment severely criticis ing the personnel of the prohibition enforcement staff, and asking for dis missal of three agents rtllevfei to be guilty of attempts to extort money. "Almost without exception," the presentment read, "the agents are not men of the type of intelligence and character quail fled to be charged with this difficult and important duty." Philadelphia. April 1. Commenting upon frequent acquittals of persons charged with violation of the Volstead act In the local Federal Court, United States District Attorney McAvoy to day Issued a statement attributing such acquittals largely to the fact that prohibition enforcement agents who have obtained evidencein the cases have themselves been charged with irregularities. Defendants' attorneys have made capital of this circumstance, be said, thereby causing Juries to discredit the testimony of these agents.

gpmpfjonp Concert The eleventh papa-ram of the season by 'the Cincinnati) Symphony Orchestra Sunder the direction of Eugene Tsaye was given for the first time In Emery Auditorium yesterday afternoon before a large and discriminating audience. of muslo lovers, which Included delegates to the convention of the Ohio Federation of Musle Clubs aa special guest. The program was purely and, by special re quest of symphony patrons, devoted exclusively to-the works of Richard Wagner It had been aeveral years since an all-Wagner program had been' given by the orchestra and Interest In the concert was at' high pitch. i The orchestra was In fine fettle and Conductor Tsaye was In one of his happy Tsaye knows Wagner and ha loves his works. The great master of music drama haa few such interpreters as Tsaye.

He thoroughly understands the scores and he imparts, to hla readlnga that breadth and dignity that Wagnerian music must have. if it is to be wholly There is nothing subtle, or elusfve about Wagner. There Is never the slightest doubt wither he is leading, His muslo is ponderous, but It is rich In underlying harmonies and his orchestration aser virile and bold. It has been said that Wagner lived a generation ahead his time. Certain it Is that he established a new and a very definite school of composition.

He was the first to realise the possibility of making the music drama Impressive without being unnatural. He had the courage-of his convictions to slip off the shackles of the conventionalities of his time, and the powerful Influence of his writings largely, is due to his sincere effort to be entirely original. The florid arias and colorful recitatives of the old Italian composers had little appeal for Wagner. He conceived muslo drama aa a living, breathing, vital force. Text and music must be wholly In according to his musical creed, and that waa hla sole aim when ho undertook to break away from the traditional forms of operatic music Prosperity has placed the stamp of approval upon the compositions of Richard Wagner.

Although it has been nearly 40 years since his death his grand operas have never been excelled and they hold first rank in the repertoire of all the great organizations of the world. Wagner knew the possibilities of the modern orchestra and he made impressive use of hla knowledge. He was a muter of instrumentation from every viewpoint. The broad sweep of his muslo and its consistent approach to MEXICANS ARE EXECUTED. Seputed Plotters Face Firing Squad Ten Hours After Arrest.

Mexico City. April Victor Lascano and Herlberto Salgado met death before a firing squad early this morning, 10 hours after their arrest for alleged complicity in a plot against the lives of prominent persons In Mexico City and the city of Puebla, according to an extra edition published this afternoon by El NaclonaL Salgado la said to have been arrested yesterday afternoon In the Mexico City MOHAWK BRANCH 1933-35 Central Ave. Opposite Mohawk Bridge powerful climaxes combine to render his' Inspiring, at times overpowering. The Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra is well equipped to bring out the Inherent 'beauties Of Wagnerian scores, and the men yesterday responded nobly to the wishes of the conductor. Their playing of the ambitious program gave evidence of ample rehearsing and painstaking attention to the mechanical details.

There waa a notable brilliancy in the playing of the brass section that, was in the nature of a The attacks were remarkable for their precision and the tonal quality and volume for absolute aecurity. The artistic re sponsiveness of the string sections, wood-wind' and batteries combined to render the concert one of the most Impressive of the entire series of the current The various numbers that constituted the. program are too well known to habitual concert goers to require more than passing comment. The concert ppened with the overture to "The Flying Dutchman," Its descriptive beauty waa well rought out. Lest Tsaye be suspected of becoming theatrical one hesitates to mention that for the rendering of the "Parsifal" prelude which followed, as well aa for one or two other numbers of the program, the lights were lowered very low Indeed, to provide atmosphere.

The religious outline of the "Parsifal" prelude was admirably reflected in the playing of the orchestra. It waa given a deeply sympathetic reading by Tsaye, the solemn harmonies of the Grail theme being particularly effective. The dainty "Voices of the Forest" numberfrom "Siegfried" came In pleasing contrast, and the "Entrance of the Gods Into Valhalla." from the "Rhine-gold," made a brlltant finale for the first half of the program. Following the Intermission Wagner's "Faust Overture" was played. It seems to lack some of the Imposing grandeur of other Wagnerian compositions, but It has the usual brilliant climax, and the orchestra yesterday performed it splendidly.

One of the beautiful numbers on the program was the "Siegfried Idyll." named for the composer's son, who waa born at the time It was written. In IbTL It is a work of warm emotional expres sion, and It Is scored with all the usual Wagnerian skill. The program closed with an Impressive performance of the Funeral March from "Twilight of the Gods" and Wotan's Farewell and Magic Fire Scene from "The Valkyrie." The ftrofound impression made by the concert yesterday seems to lead to the conviction that a greater number of purely orcnesirai programs snouiu arranged. Yesterday's concert seemed all that symphony concert should be. The haooy arrangement of the program was a distinct credit to the good taste of Ysaye, and the masterful playing of each number brought a full measure Of Blorv for both men and leader.

The program will be repeated to-night. w. n. ww. postofflco while mailing a package containing a high explosive bomb addressed to.
