LITTLE TAILOR
Of T0OLEY
STREET
Imported to Uniform Ameri-
can Army Causes Dis
cussion of the Clothes
Question.
Special to The Journal.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 6.-There
Is a ripple of laughter going the
rounds of the army officers in this
city, that threatens to grow into a
state Of the most ardent hilariousness
and extend to others than those who
wear the uniform of our Uncle Sam.
1t is all over a recent bulletin issued
the Department of Commerce and
Labor 1t will be remembered that a
few months ago Secretary Taft i'm
ported, in direct violation of the i'm
migration laws, tailor from Lon
don, to design, cut. and. construct a
uniform for our American army. At
that time the press of the country
Tdiculed the idea of our having to go
to England for such a purpose, and
the tailors of this country threatened
to rise in rebellion.
At the time our War Secretary or
dered his tailor from Tooley street the
tailors of London set UP the claim that
all Americans who prize style, quail
ity and fit order their clothes from
London tailors." That was a pretty
broad statement for it has long been
acknowledged that Americans as a
rule are the best dressed people in
the world, and that most Americana
can afford, and do get the very best
there is in the market. Now comes
Our Department of Commerce and La
Dor and tells us for the year 1905 the
| total exports of clothing from England
to the United States only amounted
to a beggarly $275,0 900, and worse and
more of it, by a deal the same depart
ment assures us that it has been the
custom of British officials to enter
exports of clothing to the United
States under the head Of "slops."
| Isn't that sweet morsel for our few
Anglo-maniacs, who have been boast
ing of their London cut" clothes? If
there is any fit or style about them 1t
is cruel in the British treasury Off
Gals to denominate them "slops," but
as the aforesaid treasury officials are
supposed to know, we must not find
fault with them for the value they
place on London made clothing. The
army officials are quietly enjoying
this unintentional dig of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor at the
Secretary Of War, who is trying to
have "slop" uniforms for the boys we
send out to do battle.
I'm grave, honest truth, our army uni
forms have been going from bad to
worse for several years. The blue
uniforms, of the days from 1851 to
1855. was the natiest ever put on by
soldiers of this or any other country
It Is true that some times the fit was
rot all that could be desired, but the
style was attractive, and something
to be proud Of. In these days 1t is
hard to tell soldier from a tramp
who had purloined the garb OF some
scarecrow in the cornfield, and the i'm
preston prevails that when the boys
are called upon to don the uniforms
designed and built under Taft's Lon
don importation not tramp in the
country would trade clothing with or
soldiers.

port on the inspection of factories and

thousand or more detailed statements as
interesting as the following:

excessively dirty. 1t is surprising how
very rarely overalls or head-coverings are

with a black, greasy sour-smelling mud.

GLASGOW SCORES FAILURE
Scotch Town Declares Municipal
Ownership of Telephone Lines
is Mistake.

GLASGOW, Aug. 4.-(Special Cablegram
to The Bee. 1.-THE committee OF the Civic
Federation OF America, headed by NJ. p
ingalls, of Ohio, will find It necessary to
revise its reports upon municipal owner
ship so far as Glasgow is concerned. When
the committee visited Glasgow among other
cities in search of intelligence regarding
municipal ownership the members of the
committee appeared greatly interested in
the workings Of the municipal telephone
This telephone was established between
five and six years ago TO compete with a
private company. II was found that the
municipal company was not a paying ven
ture and the town council decided to sell
the business to the postofice at a loss OF
$4,000 rather than continue the under
taking. When the sale was decided upon
more than 81, 900, 900 had been spent on the
equipment and a further expenditure of
$500, 600 had been found to be necessary
The Glasgow Herald asserted that the
undertaking was a mistake in the begin
ming and that the citizens have cause for
being thankful that the loss is not more.
Telephone experts say that the Glasgow
| experiments settle the question as to the
practicability of a municipality successfully
| operating a telephone exchange. It is ad-
mitted that the naturalization Of the tele-
phone under the management of the Post
ONCE department may become a success
/ but that the municipalization OF a tele-
[ phone in any city is doomed to failure.

WOMEN GRADUATES LOSE OUT
scotch Court Declares they Have
No Right 60 vote at

GLASGOW. Aug 4-(SpeCial Cshlegram
to The Bee)-The female graduates Of Ed
inburgh university have sought in vain for
a judicial declaration Of their right as
members Of the university council to vote
in the election OF Parliamentary representa-
tives Women are now admitted to grad
uation honors, and as graduates they be-
come members Of the general council Of
their alma mater The members OF the
council have the privilege Of electing
member OF Parliament Parliament has de-
clared that every person" of full age
and subject to no legal ncapacity' en-
tered upon the register of the general
council shall be entitled to vote. Miss Mar
garet Nairn, NJ A, and some sister grad
yates at the last general election applied to
the registrar for voting papers He re-
fused their request. In his view of election
law they were not persons" and in any
event, being women, he told them that they
were legally incapacitated from voting
| Burning with Indignation, they rushed to
the court Of sessions, demanding from the
university authorities S25 for compensation
for the expense and inconvenience 20 which
they were put by their refusal OF voting
privileges and seeking a declaration from
the court that. instead of trampling upon
| lHSlT fletloIdl TlBUle III AhluEe tAGtNiuilSt
the registrar should be ordained under
| pains and penalties TO issue to them voting
/ papers. That they were persons could
not he disputed. To say that they were
subject to any legal incspacity when they
were of full age was seemingly ridiculous.
/ They naively instructed their advocates to
suggest that in using in the reform act
of 1868, upon which they based their claim,
the word person in dealing with uni
versity elections and the word man" in
regard TO burgh and county elections, Par
lament had in its deliberate contemplation
the day that subsequently dawned wher
women became entitled to enter the general
council as graduates. This idea was secuted
by their opposing counsel, and Lord Sal
vesen has dismissed their plant with
note 20 the effect that they are not per
sons" at least in the sense of the statut,
they were pleading, and even II they hac
been, as women they were subject to thu
legal incapaclty of voting.
