Paris, December IA
The crowd at the opening Of the recent auto
mobile show included a large percentage Of
women OF the haut monde The gowning in
the afternoon had one noticeable feature-a ma
3o1fty OF the gowns were of the dressy short
skirt kind. This is the first public event at
which this fashion has been the order. up to
now short skirts having been worn either by
Americans or in isolated cases by French wom-
en-. Now, however. IL be said, that this
mode q transatlantic one, has not only been
launched. but generally accepted Among the
noticeable costumes were several of black cloth
OF velvet with white accessories. such as white
fox furs a sweeping white plume in a black

cloche OF black satin felt with drapery OF white

the bTim started a thick. curly white ostrich
feather which fell down 20 the shoulder so that
the tip rested a white fox stole. The same
use OF a long feather was on a green velvet hat,
but IN this case the feather shaded from green

CATTLE-Receipts of cattle this morning
looked small compared with the large runs
OF yesterday and day before. The market
was given little breathing Rpell and the
trade placed In more healthy condition.
Good western steers did not appear to
be very plentiful and the market on the
better grades was a little stronger than
yesterday, with the medium kinds steady.
Cornfed cattle were no better than yester.
day, In fact. II anything, they were little
easier. some OF the same cattle that have
been bringing ss.iS selling at $50 today.
II will be borne in mind. however, that
cornfed cattle have been bringing very
good prices at this point every day. 90
that they could sell on a little and still
bring very satisfactory prices.
After the excessive run OF cows and heif-
ers yesterday the supply today looked
quite meager, The result was that cattle Of
that description sold q little better than
the extreme close yesterday, which was
very bad, some OF the late cows selling
as much as 15d2Sc lower on yesterdays
market. No great advance could be noted
today. but the market was certainly an
Improvement over the worst time yesterday
There were quite a good many stockers
and feeders still in the hands OF Speculation
and they were In consequences not very
hungry for fresh supplies this morning At
the same time there was no great number
OF fresh arrivals on sale, so that the mar
