FASHIONS AT SARATOGA.
White a Prime Favorite, Silk Gowns
Lace Coats, Evening Costumes.


The Juror for white finds full express
sion at this Mecca of the fashionist,
where "from early morn to dewy
eve" the plainest and most elegant
white costumes overshadow for thb
time being, even those in delicate col
ors; nevertheless no hue is too bright
or no design too pronounced for what
are termed "handpainted" organ
dies, modified by elaborate trimmings
Of Val. lace. Thus it is that the fash
ionable world is never without its con-
trasts. A white serge breakfast dress
worn by a Chicago blonde, consisting
Of skirt and long coat, trimmed with
white cloth leaves, appliqued on, and
outlined by white silk cord, was a well
come change from embroidered linen
or Val lace.
An Exquisite Combination.
Of blue linen and lace was seen in a
costume worn by Philadelphia belle
at a morning concert on hotel veran-
da. The skirt had panel Of lace and
lawn at the front, and the back and
sides were made up of three deep lace
founces, on sheer lawn foundation.
A long, pale blue linen coat was fitted
closely at the back, but not closed at
the fronh, showing a full white lace
waist and flowing lace jabot at the
neck. Around the blue linen coat, was
wide lace with heavy edge, and be
meath the edge was blue linen band.
At intervals of few inches, white
hand.crocheted roses were placed on
the edge of the lace attached TO the
coat. The sleeves we're large at the
top, with elbow cuffs trimmed with
lace and roses, and deep lace rufiles
gave thb finishing touch.
A Plain Sea Green organdie Dress
Made over white and worn by hand.
some blonde, had three wide ruflles on
the skirt edged with Val. lace, and a
FUN bertha around the shoulders, also
edged with lace. The gathers on skirt
and waist were held in Princess
style by narrow tucks. The sleeves
were three puffs with Val. lace lower
sleeves and lace collar. The hat was
Of sea green Liberty silk, Of large sail
or shape, and trimmed with bows, shir-
rings and ruchings of the material. The
parasol was Of green silk, with clus
ter Of white lilacs embroidered on each
gore.

WOMEN AFTER SMOOT.
Meeting of Committee at Philadelphia
Petition for Senate

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, November PA
meeting of the executive committee of the
National League of Women's Organizations,
formed two years ago to oppose the COLI
tinuance in the United States Senate of
Senator Reed Smoot of Utah, was held here
today. Women from all sections of the
country were present.
IT was announced that petition will be
presented to the Senate asking for the ex-
clusion of Mr.. Smoot on the ground that
'he is member of a hierarchy whose
president and q majority of the members
practice and teach polygamy." The me-
mortal will state that Mr.. Smoot has never
raised his voice against these doctrines and
the Mormon hierarchy has broken its cove
nant which it gave to the United States
when statehood was granted
The petition has been signed by nearly
million women and will be presented by
senator from each state. A letter was read
at today's meeting from the Womens
American Club of Salt Lake City, thanking
the league and the National Congress of
Mothers for their anti-Mormon campaign.
meeting of the presidents of all wonen's
organizations throughout the country will

eliminates the possibility of accident when
the draw is open, as at that time each hit
is vertical, making a solid barrier across
the entire width of the bridge fifty feet
high Another reason for the selection OF
this draw is that it was deemed madVlSapie
to decrease the waterway by building the
large crib pier, which would be necessary
in case of swing draw.
The new Highway bridge and the new
railway bridge over the Potomac are what
are known through Pratt truss types,
the weight of the bridge being supported on
arches a bove the floor of the bridge, while
the Anacostia bridge is what is known as
the Deck type, that is, the bracing is all
below the floor, and there is no overhead
work above the bridge floor.
As yet none of the steel to be used in the
building of the bridge has arrived. but long
before the spans are ready for the laying
of the ironwork it will, it is stated, be on
the ground, and there will be no delay from
that source. But little work can be done on
the bridge this winter, but early in the
spring the contractors VIII have big force
of men at work, and unless something I'M
forseen happens the structure will be COM
pleted and ready for use by January ], 1907,
the time required under the contract.
The new bridge will be a handsome one,
it is believed, and one with which the peo
pie of Washington will be well pleased. 1t
will be lighted by electricity the big arc
lamps which are to illuminate the bridge
being swung from ornamental fixtures sus
pended over the sidewalks on each side.
Lift Draw a New Device.
The use of the lift draw In this vicinity
is something new, but where they have been
tried, the engineers say, they are most sat-
isfactory, as they give absolutely clear
passageway for vessels, and are economi-
cal of operation. The plans for the new
bridge We're prepared in the office of Mr..
w ]. Douglass, engineer of bridges for the
District, under the direction of Col. John
Biddle, Engineer Commissioner, and Capt.
J. j. Morrow. assistant to the Engineer
Commissioner of the District of Columbia
The engineer of construction in charge of
the bridge is Mr.. r. j. c. Bailey, jr. as the
representative of the District, while Mr.
John Meigs is the engineer looking after
the interests of the contractors and Mr..
John Mowat is experimenting the work

Their report finds that Capt w H

rules governing inland waters and that the
Esparta caused the collision by starboard-

when the Magnolia's red light was in sight
and by answering one whistle to the two

inspectors state they have no jurisdiction
over him in connection with the collision
The damage sustained by the Magnolia

suit for that amount. The decision of the
inspectors will. it is expected, figure promi-
