The Dress of English Women.


The first days in the streets of London
bring SO many impressions that it is rs
confusing TO remember them as to recall.
in their proper order, the changes Of a
kaleidoscope. 1t is apparent that the
men are heavier here than with us, ap-
parent, too, that this is a land of mon,
ruled by men, obedient to the ways and
comforts and prejudices of men. not
women. Here the male bird has the bril-
liant plumage The best of them. as one
sees them in Piccadilly, in Bond street. in

park of a Sunday after church. are fine

ouSly well groomed and turned out. But
the women. What hats, what clothes,
what shoes, what colOrs, what amor
phous figures! One hears of English
economies; evidently they begin with the
dresSmaker's bill. Who permits that nice
looking girl to wear a white flannel skir5,
a purple jacket and Il fur hat with n
bunch of small feathers sticking out Of
it at right angles Here is another with
an embroidered linen coat, and a bit If
ermine fur, and & straw hat with flowers
on it, The grOteSque costumes of the
women would make one stop to stare
were it not that they are so common one
ceases at last to notice them. But their
taste in dress IS nothing new. When
Queen Victoria came to the throne their
tasteless vagaries Of custom were notice

robe, a black-violet mantlet lined with
blue satin and trimmed with black lace.
and an emerald green hat trimmed with
blonde and roses, as well as ribbon and
feathers"
The complexions of the English have
often been exploited for our benefit. The

examination it proves to be not the red

State and Federal Authorities Engage
in Important Conflict.

Atlanta, Ga, oct. 25.-The hearing
in the now famous case of Charles E.
Stegall, gauger in the employ of the
United States department of internal
revenue, was resumed today in the
United States court. The case, ii Will
be remembered. evoked sharp con-
nlct between the state and federal
courts, the Dade county superior court
holding Stegall in contempt because he
declined to answer before the grand
Jury a question as to what was being
manufactured at the Cureton distlllery.
The United States authorities, on the
other hand, upheld the gauger. taking
the stand that his oath and bond for
bade him to divulgc the desired infor-
nation.
The issue is regarded as one of great
Importance, especially i'm prohibition
states or localities. The decision is
awaited with interest as it will afford a
precedent for state courts in the trial
of alleged violations of the prohibition
law And. furthermore, ii will become
precedent i'm the matter of state OF
county interference with United States
revenue officials.

st. Louis, Oct. 25.--In a speech at the
st. Louis club today President Taft
referred to a trip of his hosts, the
Commercial club, to Panama while the
president was secretary OF war. He
said that he had always felt grateful
to those who went to the IsthmusS for
the confidence which they had engcn-

ing the work on the canal. These in
vestigators, who went on their own
expense, could not be fooled or de-
ceived and could have no motive for a
misrepresentation of the facts. He de-
clared the report of the Commercial
club marked the beginning of a state
of affairs which has left the adminis-
tration I'm a very comfortable position
with reference to the progress of canal
work. Up to that time, the president
said, there had been shrieks of scandal

Charlottesville Va, oct. 25.-The no.
ted case of John Armstrong Chaloner,
formerly Chanler who is fighting in
the courts TO recover the estate he de-
clarcs was Illegally taken from him,
was called for trial today. Much in
terest is manifested i'm the trial. as II
is asserted that the names of persons
figuring prominently in New York so
ciety will be drawn into the controver-
sy.
Mr.. Chaloner belongs TO a family that
has long been prominent i'm New YORK
and Virginia. His mother was a
granddaughter OF John Jacob Astor,
and his brothers are Lewis Stuyvesant
Chanlcr. former lieutenant governor OF
New York, ex- Congressman William
Astor Chanler. and Winthrop Chanler.
In 1888 John Armstrong Chanler
married Amelie Rives. now the Princess
Troubetzky, author of The Quick or
the Dead" a book OF which he was
said TO be the hero. They were di-
vorced in 1895. she getting a Dakota
decree against him.
Not long after he was declared In
sane by the courts of New York. As a
result he was committed to Bloom
lngdale asylum, and his estate. which
came TO him by Inheritance chiefly. was
administered i'm his behalf by Thomas
T. Sherman who was appointed by the
court. on Thanksgiving night, 1899,
Chaloner escaped from Bloomingdale.
The next day he entered a private sam
itarium in Philadelphia, and explained
to the physicians his situation. He
asked that his identity be kept secret.
He remained there for three months,
when the doctors assured them he was
entirely sane. Later he went to Lynch
burg. Va, and remained there for six
months under an assumed name. Then
he entered a suit there, asking that his
property in New York and Virginia be
restored to him, and that his mental
condition be passed on. After long
trial the courts OF Virginia held that he
was sane and could come and go as he
pleased.
Not so in New York. however Re
peated efforts on his part to obtain a
decree saying he is sane in New York,
as he is in Virginia have failed. A
year ago he went to the United States
supreme court In an unsuccessful eff
fort to have that tribunal issue him a
safe conduct under which he might go
to New York Ind conduct his fight in
person. In all OF his court fights Chal-
oner. who is a lawyer, has supervised
the details of the litigation.

New York. oct. 25.-The much-dis-
cussed automobile tour from New York
to Atlanta, arranged primarily to pro-
mote public interest i'm the construction
of National Highway" between the
metropolis and the Gate City" OF the
south and to arouse interest in the good
roads movement i'm general, had it's
start from Herald square in this city
today. A large crow assembled to see
the two-score competing cars get away.
1t will be a contest Of physical en-
durance as well as one that is bound
TO test the cars Before IL is ended the
contestants will have made n journey
of over 1000 miles that will take them
within the borders of nine states. There
will be days when the motorists will
have to cover more than 200 miles over
roads that they know little about.
The route to be followed leads across
Staten island, then to Trenton, crosses
the Delaware river at that point and
thence proceeds to Philadelphia. From
Philadelphia, the route leads almost
due westward to Gettysburg. via Lam
caster and York. At Gettysburg the
route turns southwark to Hagerstown.
thence to Sheperdstown, w. Va. and
from there to winchester. From this
point the route follows the famous
Shenandoah Valley pike TO Staunton
and then southwark to Roanoke. Then
comes a stretch OF about fifty miles
across the mountains, where the worst
roads of the entire route are to be en-
countered. AS soon as the highway
enters North Carolina better conditions
are found and there are good roads al
most all the way across the state, via
winston Salem, Greensboro and Char
lotte Granville and Anderson will be
touched in South Carolina. and then
the motorists will enter Georgia, pro-
ceeding by way of Winder and Law
renceville to Atlanta.
