Long dresses for the street should be
eschewed by stout women, as they

There is great variety in sleeve
models, but there are one or two styles
that are becoming and seem destined
t. be long lived. The line from the
neck to the elbow must be plain and
unbroken by trimming The fulness

caveller cuffs being used to keep it in

The long shoulder effect so univer-

short sleeves. The slashed sleeve is
very pretty. They are unusually plain
and close fitting at the front, and
they have full pieces jeined on at the
back. usually with some kind Of trim

Competition of Canadian Roads.

The Canadian Parliament will meet at
Ottawa in short time, and one of the
most important projects to be laid before
1t will affect directly the trade relation
between Canada and the United States. The
project calls for the construction, under
government subsidy, of a transcontinental
railway, $500 miles long, exclusively on
Canadian soil. There are now all-rail con-
nections between the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts of the British possessions north of
the United States, but the connections in
the East are not satisfactory. and the re-
suit is that the Grand Trunk, the chief
Eastern outlet of Canadian commerce. finds
its terminus at Portland. Me. in re-
spectS irkSOme to the Canadians. This
arrangement gives Canada a short access
to deepsea ports, but subject to the customs
regulations of the United States, under
which the Canadians have chafed for years.
The chief purpose of constructing the pro-
posed road is to rival the United States
both by fostering through Pacific trade
from Europe and to build up the great
wheat-growing and grazing regions of
southwestern Canada. In view of the lately
aroused antagonism towards the United
States, the result of the Alaskan award, 1t
is expected that the Canadian Parliament
will approve OF the project. Whether It
will yield all the Canadians expect from
it remains to be seen.

the United states.

In the last twelve months the leading
railroads have borrowed more than 800. 600,
coo on short-term notes, and the fact that
large number of these notes mature within
the next few months is serving TO raise the
question in financial circles as 10 how these
obligations will be financed. Not in years
have the railroads had so many Outstand-
ing short-term notes at present The
roads began issuing shOrt-term notes early
IN 1903. Such an enormous amount of new
securities had been issued in the previous
two years that the market was found to be
IN cOngested state: even the railroads
with unquestioned credit found it impossi-
bic TO issue new stock or bonds TO advan-
tage, and II was necessary for most or the
roads to raise apital 10 carry on the neces-
saty improvements. Consequently these
short-term notes were issued. The idea was
that the money could be borrowed temper
arily In this way, and that by the time the
notes matured the financial condition would
be so much improved that the railroads
would be able to issue stocks and bonds and
thus be able to meet these obligations. SO
far only one of these notes has matured.

financial condition continues uncertain
that the company made no effort TO meet

notes that will have to be financed in some
way, there Is nearly another hundred mill
