Baritones are the student model basically. The valves are in the front of the instrument, while the valves on the euphonium go up and down. The euphonium has richer sound and is more conical shaped as the bell tappers. Baritone bells can either go up or forward. Euphonium bells (i am pretty sure) only go up.

From that point they adopted the euphonium, but it was too late to be added into orchestras for that line had already been set.
