WHISKY TRUST INQUIRY.
Dewar Finishes His Testimony Aboui
the Scbufoldt DistllIery,

the scbufeidt Distlllsry.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The whisky
trust investigation continued this morn
ing, Dewar testifying further as to his
dealings with Gibson, secretary of the
trust, relative to the plot to blow up the
ANTITRUST distillery of the Schufeldta in
Chicago. The result of it was the arrest
of Gibson, with bottle of the mixture
to be used in the internal machine on
his person. He understood the mixture
was to set fire spontaneously and cause
the machine to fire bullet into tank
of alcohol, which would cause an explo-
sion and the destruction of the distil-
lery. This ended his examination.

three kinds. The firNt and one Of the
most promising styles is an outer
skirt shaped precisely like the under
skirt and cut away at the bottom to
fall in deep points all the way round
the skirt or with a point in front and
two n the back, showing in the
sho test places nearly half a yard of
the underskirt.
The second style is formed on what
used to be called the apron Overskirt,
and has u shorr slightly draped front
breadth with long straight breadths
at the back. Ho ever, this style is
decidedly ultra, and may not find gem
eral favor.
Sleeves will be of gigot and balloon
styles, close coat sleeves with Hun
garian cape, the Princess May sleeve
with no fullness at the top, and the
ls40 sleeve, which, faring widely at
the elbow, promises to gradually
lower the flare until it reaches the
wrist. Coat sleeves are much talked
of, and will be seen on smart tailor
gowns, but now that the possibilities
of handsome sleeves appear, modistes
will relinquish them reluctantly and
keep them in favor as long as they
can.
Finally. there is the redingote over
skirt, and 1t takes no prophet or
daughter of a prophet TO toretell that
this graceful, genteel fashion is bound
to become popular. Its revers will
be sharply pointed according to the
! new Robespierre model, its lining
will be silky and sumptuOus, and its
decora tions will be of fur, braiding or
gimp, modestly arranged. ltpOssesses

skirts of new gowns measure from
three and half to five yards round,
and are cut OF even length all round,
handsomely flared out at the bottom,
and either left untrimmed or finished
with a very narrow foot trimming OF
fat folds or little rolls of fur set on
sometimes with a piping OF satin.
These trimmings usually show con-
trasting color, as otherwise they would
be scarcely noticed, so modestly and
neatly are they fashioned. Skirts
/ show a tendency, too, to open up the
sides over panels, which widen toward

One new style of dress particularly
adapted to home wear is that OF the
yoke skirt, fitted closely down over
the hips and having the lower part
gathered on beneath some folds OF
trimming, and q very pretty idea is
that Of having the lower part of the
skirt acordeon plated. A pretty dress
of this kind is of rose cashmere and
has black bette ribbons run on in
groups of three rows, and three Of the
groups widely spa ed forming the

The Chattanooga Medicine company and

The company employs n large number of

country, besides their factory force. among
which there are fifty to seventy-five young

The Times cheerfully cOmmends this

the patronage they are receiving, and any
effort to cripple them should be condemned
by all southern merchants who take pride
