A CRUSADE FOR DRESS REFORM.
THE FIAT HAS GONE FORTH THAT SKIRTS MUST
BE ABOLISHED.

THE FIAT HAS GONE FORTH THAT SKIRTS MUST
BE ABOLISHED.
Cbautauoua Aug 3 (speciall-A great dress reform
movement is about 10 be started in the onred
states. 1t will be concerted and comprehensive anu
will embrace all the schools from the most conserVa
live To the most radical. The crusade against the
prevailing fashions that begun at Chautauqua
about a week ago the first intimaton OF what was
coming but to-day the secret leaked out ana IL SHOWS
that the women reformers arc on the war-path' anu
really means business. The great trouble up TO the
present time with the ladies has been TO get leader
a sort of Martin Luther, as who could pre-
cipitate great reformation. This leader has Just
been found in the person of Mrs. Frank stuart Parker
of Chicago. who bravely nailed her dress reform
thesis against the gates of ChautauQua about week
ago. On May 30. 1891, the general officers OF the
National Council of Women held a very important
meeting in Indianapolis Ind, and passed secret reso
luton that q crusade would be waged as soon as pos
sble against the prevailing style OF dress among
women. This TO be the first of series OF proc-
Iamations emancipating women from skirts, garters
corsets high heels high cOllars-n fact from every
thing that hdndicaps the sex in competing with men
The ladies say that the slavery of skirts must DC
abolished, and hence they have Just selected as
Central Committee the following prominent women ::
Mrs. Frank stuart Parker. Mrs Frances E. Russell
Annie Jenness Miller Elizabeth stuart Phelps Ward
Anna G. Bracket Dr. Mary Putnam jacob. Miss
Grace Dodge and Margaret Langster. Chautauqua
seems been hit as the place to pecpit''e
the movement. The new crusade is very sweep
ing and will cut broad swath in the domain Of
dress now solely inhabited by man. and the curious
thing about it all is that Miss Frances Willard has
wheeled the whole National Temperance Union into
line in support of the movement In her very bright
address here Saturday, entitled "a White Life for
Two abe made some very striking and suggestive re-
marks "When heard that Mrs. Parker had been
saving TO the Chautauqua ladies about dress reform.

MANUFACTURERS MUST DO THEIR PART
GENERAL JOHN W. FOSTER TALKS ABOUT RECENT
RECIPROCITY TREATIES.

GENERAL JOHN w. FOSTER TALKS ABOUT RECENx
RECIPROCITY TREATIES.
General John w. Foster OF Washington, who nego>
tiated the reciprocity treaty with spain. under Mr..
Blaines instructions, is at the Fifth Avenue Hotel
He loath TO into the discussion of the merits
of the treaty last night. 81 willing to let
the treaty speak for ITSELF he said. However,
want 10 commend two editorials which appeared In
Sundays Tribune. One related to Cuba and protested
against the idea Of political annexation. The other
dealt with Santo Domingo, and emphasized the
cessity Of manufacturers going ahead and building
up trade under the new treaty.
"Those articles the General continued set forth
exactly the true policy. We do not desire the po-
tca annexation OF Cuba In fact, think IL Is TO DO
avoided by because Of the complications 1t would
bring into our system OF government. We are
titled TO the commercial annexation, because this cour
try is practically the only market that Cuba has for
its products. Reciprocity has substantially given
complete control over the commerce OF that island.
81 want to say concerning the negotiation of the
Cuban treaty that the spanish Government under
the leadership Of the Prime Minister, Canovas del
Castillo. has shown great craftsmanship, particularly
toward her colonies Of Cuba and Porto Rico. In
sentng to such treaty, she has very seriously inter
fered with tho industries of the peninsula Of spain.
and none but enlightened statesman could have
comprehended the necessity Of such sacrifice on the
part of the mother country In favor OF her colonies
Regarding the treaty with santo Domingo. want
10 make this suggestion. Lhe Government Of tho
United States cannot do everything 10 gain foreign
trade. The manufacturers their part, and In
the past they have been very delinquent in reaching
out and trying to control foreign markets They have
not studied those markets observed the tastes Of
the people. To gain foreign market manufacturers
must conform TO the state Of things which exists In the
places where they want TO sell. The market at home
has been large that there has been no necessity
for manufacturers TO strike out in foreign countries.
"The Tribune Is entirely correct in saying that the
Government has done It's part so far as Cuba Porto
Rico, santo Domingo and Brazi, are concerned Now
Ii remains for our manufacturers 10 put forth tho
necessary effort occupy control those markets.
They do il If they lave the enterprise 10 make
the eXerton. Trade will not come 10 them OF itself,
present conditions there is good why they
should not succeed"

Myers regrets that the proper objections not made
