this pretty young matron having recent
ly returned TO society after several years
mourning. Mrs. Cough is quite as charm
ing as ever. and in the hat in question
looks very little older than when she
was Miss Mary Stone, whose debut and
wedding are both matters of COMPARE
lively recent social history.
The hat is of chiffon velvet. with wide
and almost straight brim and pronounced
crown, three inches high. About the
right side OF the crown is a soft fold of
maline, which ends In a small knot In
front Here are three small ostrich tips
standing upright, and starting from under
them two long pldmes, also of ostrich.
which go TO the back Of the hat, falling
off the brim. Under the ostrich plumes is
still another pendant feather, something
between an uncuTled ostrich and an Os-
prey, but In reality neither. II is very
full. and apparently made OF a number
Of soft, downy feathers, each ending in
a long. sharp point This product Of ma
ture and art falls almost to the left
shoulder.
Another unusual and very becoming hat
is the green feather toque worn by Miss
Gertrude Clagett, which would seem to
be the body Of one or two choice South
American parrots worked into millinery.
The crown, which is rather large and
close to the face is entirely Of the tiny
green, breast feathers, and across the
front are placed two slender, green wings,
the latter being long enough to extend
well over the left side.
Mrs Nathaniel Francis wears one OF the
newest models in utility hats, which is
both becoming and stylish to its petite
owner. It is of the London smoke tones,
but showing more brown than gray, and
worn very well of the face.
There is rather a pronounced crown
OF soft, French felt in black. about which
are laid folds of the smoke-colored satin.
the latter being several inches deep and
finished by a large upward bow near the
front. To the left Of this bow is a decora-
ton in stiff feathers, the latter being
neither wings nor breasts, but very chic,
and showing beautiful natural cOlOring in
grays and browns. and in their arrange
ment resembling nothing so much rs a
small whisk broom. There is absolutely no
brim to this chapeau, which, without the
feathers, might be mistaken for an old
time bonnet minus the strings.

COMPLICATIONS
NOT EXPECTED
France Proceeding on the The
DRY That Morocco Trouble
Will End Satisfactorily.

Paris, Aug. 24.-Premier Clemenceau
will return to Paris tomorrow from
Marienbad, and will go Immediately
to Rambouillet, where he will give
President Fallieres an account of his
interview with King Edward. The
foreign office here officially assumes
that diplomatic complications over Mo-
rocco are not likely to occur. as the
official attitude of Germany since the
crisis has been one of complete APP
prevail.
Ambassador Cambons visit to Chan
cellor Won Buelow at Norderny, al
though arranged prio to the fighting
at Casablanca, and having no official
relation to the Moroccan situation, is
expected to have a good effect in en-
abling the two governments to under
stand each other. Nevertheless the at
titude of the German newspapers.
which are constantly filled with insin-
uations and innuendo, creates some
miSgivings lest the German govern
ment, in the event of the situation de-
manding stronger measures, abruptly
change its front as it did several times
during the Algeciras convention.
Some of the French papers are fair
~ convinced that this is what will hap
pen, but the foreign office gives no en-
enlargement 10 this assumption and is
proceeding on the theory first that
France and Spain will not be forced
to exceed the mandate which they re-
ceived at Algeciras, and secondly, that
if the unexpected happens all the pow
ers will Loyalty support whatever
measures are found necessary to insure
safety of lives and property of the Eu-
ropeans IT. Morocco.
The government has received infor-
nation showing that a German mer-
chant at Tangier, who is notorious for
his dislike of Frenchmen, inspired the
reports cabled to the German news
papers, criticising the action of the
French troops at Casablanca.

Underground System to Be ES-
tabIiShed as Fast as Funds
Are Provided.
Special to The HeraldN

Washington, D. c., Aug. 24.-GeneraI
James Alien, chief signal officer, U. s.
A, has commenced work upon a plan
which contemplates a system of IN
derground wire service for telephones
at all the military posts of the United
States. He has already installed the
underground system at Fort Des
MOines, Iowa, and is having it put in
at Vancouver barracks, Washington
1t is to be installed this year at Fort
Russell, Wyoming; Fort Ethan Allen,
Vermont; Fort Slocum, New York, and
Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana
Other posts will be added to the list
as funds are provided by congress. In
each post where the underground sys-
TEN is installed all of the officers
quarters, the barracks, non-commis-
stoned officers quarters, hospitals, ad-
ministratiOn buildings, etc, will be
connected up with a general switch
board, to which commercial telephone
companies will be permitted to make
connection. The officers and men may
obtain telephone service from these
companies at such rates as they may
be able to secure. The war department
will supply the wire connections, but
will not furnish the officers or men with
telephone service.
In addition to placing the telephone
wires underground, work will be car
ried on as rapidly as possible at all of
the harbOr defense posts in putting I'M
foreground all of the telegraph, tele-
phone and electrical signalling wires,
used in exploding harbor mines, direct

VIOLATION OF
NEUTRALITY LAW
Men Arrested at Los Angeles
Will Be Tried in This Coun-
try II At All.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 24-The arrest
of the four prominent Mexicans in this
city last evening on charges of cOnspir-
acy against the government of President
Diaz may prove of no consequence what
ever. Enrique Creel, ambassador of
Mexico to the United States, arrived here
this morning from Canada. He has been
studying the immigration problem and
is in southern California to look into ir-
rigatiOn matters. I know of no charges
placed against the men by the Mexican
government" said Mr.. Creel. but il is
probable that they have violated the neu-
trality laws of the United States and
that they may be prosecuted in this
country. I do not consider their actions
in St. Louis and elsewhere of any great
importance and 1 am not here on any
matter connected with the case nor shall
1 have anything to do with it,"
Evidently the prosecution of the men
for the offenseS charged rests with the
United States government and so far
none of the local federal authorities have
indicated that they will take a hand in
the matter. Ambassador Creel stated
that he was on his way to the state of
Chihuahua, where he has been recently
chosen governor. He said that he would
at once assume the duties of the office
and that the matter of his return to
Washington rested entirely with Presi-
dent Diaz.

which prohibits the sale of intoxicating
liquors within one and one-eighth
