new YEARS In GOTHAM.
The French Custom OF UShering in
the New Year With Carnival
and ReVeIry has Gained
Strong Hold on The
Mel rOpOliS.
Especial to the ARGUS

New York, Dec. 31-The advent OF
the new Year tonight will be made the
occasion for the Usual noisy demon
e~strations throughout the city of New
York. The French custom OF usher
ing in the new year with carnival ana
revelry has gained strong hold on the
metropolis of late years, becoming
more prevalent with each year.
1t was the practice of the fathers and
mothers of the present generation of
New Workers to c~ongregate at the june
ton of lower Broadway and Wall
streets near the midnight hour to hear
the chimes of old Trinity welcome the
new year. The practice still prevails
and thousands each year-end seek to
get within hearing distance of the
melodic tones from which come the
strains of an ol~d-fashioped hymn float
ing out on the still midnight air.
But there are thousands of resid-
ents of New York who desire a more
celebration in honor OF the
new year than to stand about on the
cold pavements to listen to church
bells. Upper, and not lower Broad
way. is the centre of attraction of these
people. In the theater and restaurant
districts the crowds tonight are ex-
pected to be the greatest of the year.
Tables for New Years Eve were en-
gagged in all the fashionable hotels and
weeks ago,and today not a
vacant place is to be had at any price.
The management Of the Hotel AstOr
has arranged to give a Venetian fete
to the guests and patrons of the house
in celebration of the new year. b
eight floor of the hotel will be hung
with scenery depicting the Grand
Canal, the Palace of the Doges, and the
Lion of st. Mark. The walters will be
dressed as gondoIiers and a confetti
battle will be the climax of the even
ing.
Delmonico's, Rectors, the Waldorf
Astoria, the Belmont, the Plaza and
other leading and hotels
where fashionable folk congregate will
be the scenes of similar revelries. AT
one Bohemian cafe the price of supper
will be $40 for ZACH person, without
wine, and only champaign will be serv-
ed. In all this there is no suggestion
of hard times in Gotham.

ROOSEVELT'S GRAVE ERROR.

Rear Adm raj Brownson's retire
men from the bureau of navigation, ot
which he as chief, because he object
ed to the Presidents action in placing
surgeon General Rixey in command OF
4 medical ship, creates a great stir in
tvai circles il not III federal official
ON generally. There mas been nota-
lie absence of friction between line
md staff in the army, but the same
aannot be said of the line and staff OF
ne navy. While army officers are
close observers OF punc5illo. a clash be-
geeu quartermaster or surgeon or
53ymaster and an officer of the line
tAvar occurs. In social etiquette and
rainonial precedence all branches OF
ale army, tine and staff, are. anu have
f3olng. The staff officer, heretofore,
mas been satisfied with his position and
AS never ''agitated' for a change.
IN the navy ID has been different.
nhere was a time when he naval sur
geon was not by right on even a social
FtObIIiS win the Iln0 officer com llaIu-
hg. On board ship he could only sit
it an officers table by special invita-
ion. Line and staff acted as if they
belonged TO separate orders. Staff Oh
fcers have often com implanted OF what
they regarded as an unreasonable dis
fjnction. There is less friction OF this
kind now, but the line officer is today
as quick to resent any encroachment
on his prerogatives as in years past.
The President has made a grave mis-
fake in placing Surgeon General Rixey
in command 81 the Relief. Medical Of
ieers should have q free hand III the
tt,scl pIjne and direction of all the men
=erving on hospital ships, but when il
comes TO actual command only a line
officer to the manner trained should
ae assigned 10 tIlao responsible posi-
ZION. Surgeons are not required to
KNOW any thing OF navigation; and as a
matter of fact that science is wholly
outside of their sphere. Furthermore,
staff officers nave had no experience in
managing crews, and for that reason

time of danger at sea.
But in this particular case at issue;
the President, being the commander
in-chief, had the constitutional right to
place the surgeon general in command
of the Relief, and Admiral Brownson,
for the very sake of discipline, should
have accepted the situation, for the
time being at least, and let the public
hoId the President responsible in the
event OF wreck or other disaster which
might possibly result from executive
action. However foolish and un-Amer-
lean squabbles and jealousies in the
navy may be, everybody can see that
in a natter of this sort the line officer
has the best Of the argument.
The President should lose no time in
recalling his order placing Rixey in
command of the Relief. By so doing
he would lose nothing in point OF Off
cial dignity; but, on the other hand,
would restore good feeling in the navy
and bring about the old-time respect
for naval law.

These humors find their way into the
blood through a disordered or deranged con
lition of the system. There is a certain

and nature intends that it shall find an out

AS long as these members perform their
duties properly the blood remains pure and

Displayed a Handsome Line OF Mif
Iinery at Their Opening Yesterday.

Displayed handsome Line " WIZ
Iinery at Their Opening Yesterday
II The initial millinery opening q
Messrs. Wilson & Derden, since NOV
ing into their new building, occurred
Wednesday morning, and the success
attending the event was characteristic
of that which has marked the eff
forts of ais progressive firm since its
c-sanization.
A wealth of variety in styles and
shapes was shown The Partisan fav-
orite of broad brimmed velvet, with
large roses crowded in straight
around the crown, attracted much at
i tention. In fact, big roses seem to be
the leading flower of the season in
the millinery world, while rose and
chiffon trimming are utilized in
many fascinating combinations on
black or deep-dyed velvet hats.
The directoire hat is also shown.
One which attracted considerable at
tention from those who are in touch
with the demands of the hour in a
millinery way was a very simple kind
of navy blue felt shape, with
broad folded piece of blue velvet mir
rored in stripes. Handsome duck
wings supplied the new color note of
"canard blue" and the made cabochon,
covered with the velvet, represented
one of the special popular ideas of
the season.
The Pocahontas style, developed |
in feathers, wings and breasts in all
the lighter colors, were not overlook
ed by the visitors, and these will find
much favor in the season now at
hand.
The ladies in charge of this depart
nent have not forgotten the little
'olks, in the matter of headwear and
nave provided, among other styles,
most fetching poke bonnets and trim
ned flats in light colors.
The display was comprehensive and
n its arrangement reflected the ex-
uisite taste of Nine. Baker and Hiss
.ena Wetter under whose artistic
ouch many of the beautiful designs
'ere created, and the floral decora-
ions of the room arranged.

throughout the succeeding day. Many
of the hats intended for this opening

some of the handsome pieces of ex-

have been used to much advantage
in better exhibiting the goods.
Wednesday, however while the mil

were at work getting in shape several
floor show cases with marble base
harmonizing in design with the crystal

at great expense.
When The Eagle man visited the

morning at s o'clock, there was just
as large number of ladies' present as
on the day before, and purchases
were making at lively rate. In adj
dition to the millinery opening, Mr..
Edge is also showing an exceptionally
handsome and complete line of ladies'
suits, skirts and ready-to-wear, and
the sales in this department were
most satisfactory. In fact, Mr.. Edge
stated that they were a little in ad-
vance of his expectations. He is well
pleased with the success of the open

THE COTTON MARKET.

The contract market was strong
yesterday, but the strength was not
reflected in spot prices.
Liverpool opened 6 and Z points
down when 4 to was due. The spot
market was weak. New York and New
Orleans closed Wednesday and 4
points lower.
Local buyers here claim that the
spot markets are beginning to feel the
effect of the strike of mill operatives
in Lancaster, and the demand from
European sources has been per-
ceptibly curtailed. There was very lit
tie inquiry for spot cotton in Bryan
Wednesday, and not more than 100
bales were sold. The price is off 1-Sc
from Tuesday. The Bryan market
closed:
Strict Low Middling, s 9-16c.
Middling, s 11-16c.
Strict Middling, s 1850.
