 Thrown of in Woods.

Detectives Bodeker. Hamilton and Pat ton yesterday recovered box containing fifty fine rugs which had been stolen from a freight car on one of the roads and thrown off the train into the woods near Twenty-seventh street and Avenue A.

 This and other goods recovered this month by the detectives will make the total much larger than for any months in years.

OF the seaaon.

In the matter Of furs, Dame FASH

mels OF conservatism this year. Furs
Of every description are fashionable.
Fur trimmings are sought by all who
can afford them. The creations OF the
furrier are sumptuous, elaborate and
costly beyond anything imagined Of
dozen years ago. Tght-fitting coats
must have basques. be they short or
long. Flowing sleeves and wide coli
lars with contrasting furs are the
thing, says a fashion authority.
Emhroideries have an unusual vogue
this year, those Of oriental patterns
being extremely fashionable. The
rich colorings Of these embroideries
serve to give just the necessary dash
OF color to an otherwise too sonfber
costume. They are much In demand
for the ornamentation of cuffs and coli
lar bands, as well as belts. The coll
ored embroideries on moussellne de

timea called, are much used in adorn-

used In utility costumes and the light

Small and stout women ought to avoid
them. The goods come In pink, cream
and pastel colors and some of the pat
terms are artistic in a high degree.
The rule seems 20 be this season
that a gown should either be much
trimmed or not trimmed at all. Among
the new skirts Is one that meets an
extremely popular favor. fitting

REPORT on GlNNED COTTON,
Census Department Issues a Bulletin
Figures show Considerable
Decrease.

Washington, Nov. "a bulletin is
sued by the census bureau Saturday on
the cotton ginned from the growth Of
the present year up to October Is places
the amount at 3,S39,627 commercial
bales, as against 5.925,S72 bales ginned
up to the same date last year.
The complete returns on production
for 1902 showed that 535 per cent. Of
the total crop had been ginned prior to
October IS of that year, but that per-
centage of the ginnage prior to October
IS of this year cannot be known until
the final report for the year is made.
Meantime two other reports were sub
mitted, on November IS and December
IS. The statistics for the present year
were collected by 631 local agents, who
found that 27,723 ginneries had been
operated prior to October IS. while to
the corresponding date last year 1884
ginneries had been operated. The only
comment made in the bulletin on the
falling off of this years production is
the following:
I'm comparing the statistics Of the
two years due allowance must be made

AGREEMENT NEAR AT HAND.
Report from Berlin Says RussO-JaDan
Difficulties in Far East viii
Soon BE Settled.

Berlin, Nov. 9.-The negotiations be-
tween Russia and Japan have so far
advanced that it is officially stated
that the announcement of a settlement
may be expected soon.
The terms of the agreement are not
disclosed here. 1t is only reported
that friendly adjustment of the diff
ferences between Russia and Japan is
now as good as reached. and that all
prospect of war has disappeared. The
foreign office, having this knowledge,
has received the Vienna report, that
the car and Emperor William have
signed a far eastern alliance, with
smiling incredulity. The officials here
say it is one of those idle inventions
that follow any meeting of sovereigns.
No such agreement has been signed. Ger
many's interest in the far east is re-
garded as being of too slight a char
acter ITO justify her in even contem-
plating war in any eventuality. Rus
STA could offer no consideration, now
or in the future, sufficient to bring
Germany into war with Great Brit
ain.
