J. Fred GnteheH Talks of Recent
TaiIOrs' Convention.


J. Fred GatcheIl. the Fourteenth street
tailor. accompanied by his designer, T. J..
Vandoran, has returned from the tailOTs'
convention. which met at the Hotel Astor,
in New York City In talking of the ex-
hibition made by the leading tailors Of
the country, Mr.. Gatchell said:
There's a decided modification of the
fashions for spring Heretofore broad
shoulders-now they will be natural shouI-
der5. Instead of the bloomer' trousers
the arbiters say lines that will trace the
figure
THAT means the tailor VIII have to know
his business this spring. Clothes-draping
will take the place of building.
The graceful lines of nature claim recog-
milton over the angular lines of the past
and present fashions.
I've saw exhibited some very clever
models: and I have had Mr.. VandoTen
reproduce them. so the gentlemen Of
Washington may have opportunity to ex-
anime them at their leisure. Some you'll
Ike immensely: others are so radical
you'H have to grow to like them. But
isn't that the way with all changes Of
fashion?

ing house of ideas for the craft. Next
year it is going to be held in Washington" 3"
