VOGUE OF SHIRT WAIST RINGS
Jewelry for Women to Wear with
Their Attire for the
Moaning.

shirt waist rings" is what they are
labelled. They are the simple massive rings
that some women prefer to wear with
morning attire in place OF their jewelled
rings which they save for afternoon and
evening.
All the various forms of seal rings now
popular are included in the shirt waist
ring list, but the name is used more espe-
cially for rings Of severely plain design
set with semi-precious stones of the kinds
that will stand hard wear and even soap
and water.
Many OF the shirt waist rings are plain
bands of twisted or braided gold or silver.
Some are fashioned like snakes. But most
of the rings are stone set.
Turquoise matrIx is among the best liked
stones. as it is becoming to any hand that
has a clear skin. 1t is usually set in a
large oval trimmed with an edge of gold no
heavier than is necessary to hold It Sc
curely. Many Of the turquoise matrix rings
are silver highly Furnished or oxidized in
very dark tones
The revived garnet is much used in these
rings. 1t is usually set in cabochon fashion.
A frosted gold ring in a deep Etruscan
tone has a lions head for it's ornament
ana a cabochon garnet is set in the hons
mouth.
A great oval disk OF highly polished coral
simply set In a rim of gold is the ornament
OF another ring. Moonstones are much
used, usually set in silver. which carries
out the silvery quality of the stone color
ing. -N
Lapus lazuli and, malachlte are used with
soio or silver rings. One model has a long

COUNCIL STILL ON THE RACK
Democratic City Administration Be-
fore the Grand Jury.
ELECTION DOES NOT STOP INQUIRY
McGovern aud n Rest Must Tell All
About Vscating streets Contrary
to the Charter PrOvi-
Eions. 4,

Before election democrats said that the
county grand jury was trying to make
political capital by Investigating the demo
cratic city administration and calling Coun-
Gilman Thomas McGovern. chairman OF the
committee on street improvements, on the
carpet. But election is now past and the
grand Jury is still after the democratic
city officials.
Mayor Jim Dahlmap. President Of the
Council L. B. johnson and Councilman
Thomas McGovern were all summoned be-
fore that body Wednesday, together with
Councilman Zimman and Chief of Police
Donahue, to tell what they knew of the
management of city affairs. The nature
of the investigation which the grand jury
is conducting is, of course, not divulged,
but It is stated by those who are in a
position to know that the action of Coun-
Gilman McGovern in pocketing the city
abstracter's report regarding city land I'M
lawfully occupied Is one of the items.
In accordance with the charge to the
jury by the Judge before It began It's sit.
ting, 1t will investigate tho red light
district, and the mayor and chief Of po-
lice may have been on that
score, though the mayor is also in on the
occupancy OF city property by reason OF
his approving the councils action.
Magney Knows About 1t.
Assistant County Attorney Magney, who
is acting in an advisory capacity to the
grand jury, is conversant with the actions
of the democratic council in its violating
OF the city charter by vacating streets, by
reason of a civil suit he brought against II
last white. This was when the council
usurped its powers and vacated Twenty
nth avenue between California and Burt
streets on December 10, 1907. Attorney
Magney brought suit against the city and
the Creighton university authorities on be-
half of Louis johnson, Peter Peterson and
G.. b. henderson, who objected to the clos
ing of the street. The council made GER
tain concessions, however. and the case
was dismissed.
Councilman McGovern, who has held the
report of the city abstracter since May
L. last. refused to go before the grand
jury on Monday of last week, when re-
quested to do SO by the foreman, because
he was not regularly subpoenaed. He has
now been subpoenaed and will have to tell
the grand jury why action has not been
taken on the report. Large and small
tracts of land in various parts OF the city
are occupied by public service corporations
and private individuals. Nominal rental
Is paid for the occupancy of a few pieces.
but the majority of them are occupied free.

SHIPPERS DISTURBED BY
RAILROAD CHANGE.
Single Deliveries Only Will Be
Made on Carload Con.
SignmentS.

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-Transportation
interests and shippers at this port arr
much concerned over an announcement
by Central Traffic Association lines.
including trunk lines and New England
lines-that on and after March 1 they
will make but ont free delivery for car
lead shipments instead of five free t(e-
~liveries, as heretofore. In the event Of
additional deliveries being required a
charge of 50 each will be added. All
rules of the association authorizing
split deliveries in various tariffs will
be abrogated on the date named.
This matter is of peculiar importan3e
to the transportation interests of New
Yorw, in that it will affect business
here much more severely than at othe.
ports. This Is dut to the fact that
steamship lines are sc much more nu-
merous here and so much greaccr
a variety of ports which make it an
object for large shippers-the big West
ern packers, for i~nstance-to make up a
car for New York and have the corr
tents distributed to the various steaio-
ship lines on arrival here. Under the
proposed rules the 80 extra for each
delivery over the first one will, It IS
figured, put a complete stop to this
class of shipment. The extra charge
would, it is officially stated, amount to
at least $25, 900 per year In the exoLrt
business Of packers, and some of these
packers have informed steamship peo-
pie here that unless the Eastern trunk
lines reconsider their action or MAKE
some other arrangements whereby they
can continue to handle the same PRO-
portion of export products through the
port they, the packers, Will be Obliged
to divert at least 95 per cent. of tire
traffic, which will not only comprise
that requiring split deliveries, but thpt
IN which one delivery alone is required.
1t is believed that all packers will be
compelled to take the same action.
The matter is one in. which the trade
organizations of the port are expected
to take immediate action. 1t is under
stood that the trade and transportation
of the Produce Exchange,
which has of late been so successful in
concessions from the railroads
will lead in the current movement.

Tho market at the opening was not
under much pressure during the first
part of the first hour. but as the
hour wore on liquidation started afresh
and the market showed a loss of ! to
IA points. The largest transactions
were in Union Pacific, which showed
a net decline from Saturday of is

particularly held up very well under
this liquidation.
There was a sprinkling of small

c~urities, and the market did not vary
over q of "a point either way. Union
