FASHION |

NEW YORK, March 1.-For several
weeks past two OF the Broadway thea
tres have been presenting plays in
which costumes-supposedly thoroughly
up-:o-date gowns-have been playing
the leading roles. ''Frocks and Frills, ="
at Daly's. and Lady Margaret" at
the BijOu, both adaptations from the
French comedy, Les DOigts de Fee"
are elaborate studies in the possibili-
ties of feminine fashions. Aside from
these sartorial features, the produc
tions are of little value, yet crowded
houses have been the rule, indicating
that robes a la mode possess a draw
ing power quite as effective as bril-
liant stagecraft. AS a matter of fact,
however, the gowns have been much
overrated. With few exceptions,
they are neither novel nor striking.
Miss Bingham's company, in Lady
Margaret" have. l think, rather the
better of the battle of garb. The one
really artistic confection which Miss
Bingham shows is a Paquin costume
of gray, that she wears in the second
act, and that suits her admirably. The
skirt, of gray chiffon over lustrous
gray silk. is fitted tightly to the knee,
where a full flare is outlined by Span
ish lace insertion, sparsely spangled
with tiny paiiettes. At the middle top

each end finishing in a silk tassle. The
bodice, entirely Of Spanish lace and
paillettes, has a short skirt over the
hips, and a front girdle of satin. The
lace is fastened in front, at the top,
with four large Rhinestone buttons,
from which fall cords and tassels.
ice at the waist line. The sleeves have
the long top cap of lace, with fullness
of chiffon beneath, caught into the long
lace cuff. I have rarely seen anything
so beautifully fitted as is this entire
frock, and particularly the skirt, an
other novel feature of which was a
strip of lace extending the length of
the back from the waist to the end of
the train. The hat has the general
effect of being made of folds of the
most delicate shades of green tulle.

and deep green leaves. II turns up

GREAT FALLS POWERHOUSE.
Company Planning to Erect Plant to
Supply Manufacturers.

The Water Motor and Power Company
is planning to erect a large powerhnnse
at Great Falls, on the Virginia side The
company was organized for the purpose
of supplying power to manufacturing
plants. II was recently incorporated
under the laws of the State of Delaware
with capital stock of sl,000,O00 and
tie incorporators include several prom
inent Washington men and members OF
Congress.
A part of the site upon which the com
pany has decided TO build is "wncd by
the Government. and the remainde: is
owned by private parties. The former
can easily be secured, but II is expected
that difficulty will be experienced In OBJ
tanning title to the property owned by
the individuals. AS soon as all 1r-
rangements have been completed the
erection of the building will be rushed
through.
Plans for the new building have al
ready been prepared. and bids for the
work will soon be called for. From the
proposed powerhouse the company ex-
poets to furnish enough power to run

JOHN c.. NELSON IS

CHEN'S VISIT DEFERRED.
Minister WI Notifies State Department
Officially of the Fact.

Minister Wu Ting-fsng informed the
State Department yesterday that the visit
to the United State of Prince Chen had
been postponed for the present. Prince

cial ambassador of the Emperor of Chi
ia to the coronation, is now in London.

ceived any response from his govern

remain In London for the coronation
ceremonies IL August.

the United States, is in Prince Chen's
suite.

NEW LIGHT ON CORN DEAL.
Gates and Company Short Sellers OF
September Option.

CHICAGO. July 29.-When the Gates
corn deal for July was in its glory there
was selling of millions of bushels for
September by brokers for Cudahy. There
was much speculation at the time about
the real principal bac of the enormous
sales.
Today the manager of the Cudahy af-
fairs in the pits went to the houses hav-
ing the corn boupht and had the change
made in accounts so that millions of
September corn sold at that time now
goes down to Harris. Gates & Co. as the
short sellers. The operations reached
possibly 100000 bushels.
Many put the September sales at even
greater figures, offsetting the enormous
long line of the Gates party in July at
that time. The formal changing over of
the line to Harris. Gates e. Co. throws
new light on the closing up of the big
July deal.
All the corn sold for September three
weeks ago now shows great profits, as
the September price is from to S cents
bushel lower now than at the time of
selling.

RETIRED NAVAL OFFICER
PLACED ON ACTIVE DUTY
First Step Taken in Policy of Economy
Inaugurated by Secre-
tary Moody.

Rear Admiral Henry c. Taylor, Chiet
OF the Bureau of Navigation. has taken
another step along the line of sending
naval officers to sea, the policy tnaugur-
ated by Secretary Moody.
Monday he ordered Lieutenant Com
mander A. P. Osborn. retired, to relieve
Commander William II. Turner as In
spector OF the fourteenth lighthouse
district. with headquarters at Cincin-
natl.
This will be followed by others, plac-
ing more retired officers on the active
list, and particularly in connection with
the lighthouse service. Secretary Moody
has expressed himself in opposition to
the idea of allowing an officer to retire
on pay and the Government to lose his
services altogether.
1t is now said that Lieut.. e. J. Ber-
wind. another retired officer. will be the
next to go on the active list. He was re-
tired in 1875 On account Of disability in
cident to the service. but Is now recov-
cred. Incidentally he is wealthy man,
a resident of Newport and the owner of
big interest in the Atchison, Topeka

from Detective Peck. who was sent to
Basic City in response TO a telegram
from the town sergeant at that place.
stating that he believed he had Miss
Louisa X. Nash, the young school teach
er, who has been missing from this city
for the past two months. The detective
was accompanied by the young woman s
brother.
Captain Boardman instructed Detec-
tive Peck to wire in the event the iden-
tification proved the woman to be Miss
Nash. The fact that nothing has been
received is taken as an indication that
the Basic City officer was mistaken.
The dispatch to Captain Boardman, re-
ceiyed yesterday morning, was from
Town Sergeant L. B. Shumate, as fol.
lows:
Lady here answers description your

LIKELY TO RECEIVE
TUNNEL FRANCHISE
MACHIAS AT CAPE HAITIEN.
Potomac Now in Venezuelan Waters
Marietta at Colon.

dispatch has been received at the
Navy Department announcing the ar
rival on July rs of the gunboat Machias
at Cape Haitien. The Machias was or
dered TO that port at the request of
United States Consul Livingstone ct
that port.
1t is not expected by the department
that it will be necessary to keep an
American vessel at Cape Haitien for
any length of time. When her services
are no longer required by Consul Liv-
ingstone the Machias will be ordered
home and placed out of commission.
The Navy Department has also been
informed of the arrival yesterday OF the
tug Potomac at Laguayra, Venezuela.
The Potomc relieves the Marietta in
Venezuelan waters. the latter vessel
having gone to Colon. Colombia.
The following is the telegram received
at the Navy Department from Comman-
der Henry McCrea, of the gunboat
Machias:
Affairs are very disturbed at Cape
Haitien. Unorganized mobs In the city.
Foreign consuls have been threatened.
VIII give (them) protection on board
(Machias). / will prevent bombardment
until due notice.
In sending this dispatch to the State
Department the Navy Department asked
II any instructions should be sent to
Commander McCrea. The State Depart
ment responded in the negative and said
it was perfectly satisfied with the way
he was handling the situation.
Commander McCrea has t., reputation
of always knowing what to do when in
ternational complications are threatened
and not being afraid to do it. He was
recently publicly commended by the
Secretary of the Nav for the manner
in which he handled the revolutionary
situation on the Isthmus Of Panama and
kept trans isthmial traffic open.
