TAFT BILLS TIED UP
SENATE AND HOUSE CAN'T AGREE
ON RAILROAD ELL.
Only Hope Is That President Will Com
nand Both Sides OF Conference to Get
Together.

ngton.-Administra leaders
in congress are beginning to feel good
deal OF concern over the chances of put
ting through the several measures on
which President Taft has set his heart.
Many who have hard political battles in
prospect even now are making their
plans to 60 to their states or districts.
Nearly all of the Taft bills are sus-
pended by more or less uncertain threads.
The railroad bin, which is the pending
business in both branches, is not out of
danger. The amendments already adopt
ed in the senate and house and num-
Der OF Others which are almost certain to
be adopted in one branch or the other
will produce measures so widely differ
ent that harmony in conference threatens
TO become utterly out of the question.
By the time the bill reaches confer
ence. President Taft will have returned
TO Washington. and it is hoped he may
bring the confcrees together by com
manding each side to grant concessions
Nothing but the most determined pres
sure from the White House. it is ad-
mllleQ. could accomplish such result.
In the house there is some demand
that the postal savings bank bill will
be taken up. but it is still in committee,
and an order Of a majority of the house
may be necessary TO dislodge it,
Peculiar situations exist in relation to
both the statehood and the postal bank
bills. The first named has passed the
house and radically different bill has
been reported from the senate commit
tee on territories. The postal bank bill
has passed the senate. but in a form
which seems to be wholly unsatisfactory
to the house.
What the president will do with the
rivers and harhors appropriation bill is
agltating the minds of many members Of
the house and senate in both parties. The
measure is now in conference. but no
hcadway had been made in disposinc OF
it. The delay is said to be caused bv
the rumors frequently heard that the
president will veto the bill. No one seems
to have drawn from him what his inter-
tions are concerning it.

are the velours, cassimeres, cheviots,
tweeds and the more quiet scotchy effects.
These are for the spring months paFticu-
larry, for in the midsummer outing and
vacation suits we shall see many Of the
tropical textures employed. Homespuns,
crashes and light weight flannel effects are
going to be tremendously fashionable dur
ing the dog days.
Norfolk styles are still the popular thing
with the school boys and after these the
two-piece single and double breasted sacks.
For the little fellows the Russian and sail
or blouse styles are to the fore, though
several unique departures from these have
been launched, but as yet their popularity
is speculative and hence cannot be given
any definite position in the ed.cts.
Elton linen collars with Windsor ties are
going to be worn a great deal this season
with both these blouse styles. Both the
ties and the collars being detachable. Next
to the gray effects, blues are established

changes in the shapes now shown from
those Of last spring. There will be PROM
inence Of gray shades to work in harmony
with the gray suits. There will also be
various tones Of brown shown, running
and champagnes. Dark blue is gaining
more popularity than has been evidenced
in recent seasons. The popular dimensions
range from to Az by 2 to 8. Some Of
the gray hats now shown have bands,
binding and edge stitching Of contrasting
colors, usually plum or blue.
It is noticed that in the telescopes there
is a tendency toward medium low crown,
wide Tat brims with rounded curl all
around the edge. This is one Of the few
new shapes shown this season. In appear
tinctly different from the designs of recent
years.
The one novelty note in caps for the
season are those showing rather loud
black and white checks. Aside from these
loud Scotchy patterns obtain. Yacht and
golf shapes are decidedly more popular
than the bulky shapes previously In vogue.
AS to straw hats, sennit and split straws
IN sailor and yacht shapes will be the
popular things. Some soft braid hats will
be worn, but It is believed that their popu-
Ilarity Of last summer will be found on the
wane as the season progresses. There are
no extreme novelties shown in the stiff
straw hats. The medium rough braid has
the preference over the coarser weaves. On

these the brims viii be found TO be trihs
wider than those shown last summer.
The popular dimensions in straw hats
i for the season are S11 by 2, Sas by 2, and
l2B by 2.
There is every indication that Panamas
are going to return to high favor.
Adjustable fancy bands are going to be
more fashionable than ever this summer
and their adoption will not be restricted
to the school and college boys but sub
stantial business men, who keep in close
touch with the trend, will surely wear
them.
One reason why these win be taken up
by maturer heads is from the fact that
harsh contrasts are no longer in vogue
Soft tones and color harmony is being in
troduced In subdued combinations that
will appeal TO the discriminating dresser.
Until recently the business man who want
ed fancy bands would have an array Of
college colors spread before him for his
selection, whereas he now has the opFor-
tunity to take his choice from q good as
sortment of quiet combinations that will
appeal TO his fancy.
1t is q new mode for men to have a num-
Der of bands Of various hues to 1T the
color scheme Of his general dress, just as
a quantity OF neck wear is maintained for
the same purpose. The new tones and
shades shown this season are truly beauti-
lful OF course, in college localities, college
colors will still be worn. Two prominent
colors that will be seen q great deal this
season in fancy bands are gray and reseda.

For those who WIN not accept the

There are so many beautiful designs dis
played this season in these effects that 1t
is safe to say they will not go begging for
adherents.
In all patterns, whether 1t be in plaids,
