MOTORISTS DoWDY
Berlin Society Leader Says Americans
Are Losing Reputation.

Berlin. Sept. 2.-Automobiling is
making American women dowdy, ac-
cording to a Berlin society leader
who has just returned from her an
nual visit to the United States.
The passion for motoring which
pervades all classes, she asserts, is
causing such carelessness in dress
that the Americans reputation as the
most elegant women in the world is
in imminent danger of vanishing.
When l was previously in Ameri-
ca, said this keen German observer
at a fashionable luncheon party one
day this week, my clothes, although
turned out by Berlin's most fashion
able tailor. made me feel decidedly
outre. This time it was just the other
way. l found that the women in
America were all wearing the SIM
plest kind of wash dresses, mostly
bought ready-made and very cheap in
quality. 1t was the automobiling craze
which was in the main responsible
for this metamorphosis.
The craze is not only encouraging
simple dressing, owing to the dust of
travel. but it leaves no money for
expensive clothes. The cost of mo-
toring, l learned, is also causing peo-
pie to scrimp in many other direc-
tions. The summer resorts all COM
planned of the small number of visit
ors Nobody wants to settle down
at any one place for rest. All want
to be in their autos, rolling away to
new scenes from day to day.
American women. too, nowadays
are also doing nearly all their own
housework, owing to the lack Of SER
wants, even Of second-rate ability.
Young women, especially those whom
on my last visit l knew as dainty,
idle creatures. are now caring for
their own households, including the
children.
ut was all very strange. 1t re-
minded me for all the world of the
German hausfrau as she used to ex-
list before luxury arrived in our
country"

responded with the years when there
had been marked activity in the 9TH
er. Should further analyses confirm
this conclusion, the suggestion is
that the relief of seismic strain in
one part of the world brings about
relief in some other part or that re-
lief is governed by some general in
ternal or external agency.
New Continent Is Making.
The most startling feature of the
report is the suggestion that at the
present time new continent is in
the making. 1t is pointed out that
the most pronounced seat of earth
quake activity today is along band
running from the southern extremity
of the Philippine islands and Java in
an east-southeast direction toward
the middle of the Pacific. In the
islands which stud this area with
their intervening troughs are seen the
outcrops Of mountain ranges of Him
alayan proportions. A further up
heaval of no great relative import
ance would mark the birth of a con-
tinent.
One of the accomplishments of the
committee on behalf of the associa-
tion during the last year has been
the installation of improved instru-
ments for earthquake recording upon
islands and in other widely distribut-
ed locations in all parts of the world
Complete world records of the earth S
spasms and tremors will be available
to science henceforth.
Small Thickenings Observed.
The report says that for several
years small chickering's have been OBJ
served in the traces of seismograms
obtained from the British association
instruments. On quickly recording
Photographic surfaces these appear
as ripples. When analyzing records
obtained by the steamer Discovery in
the Anarctic regions it was noticed
that a number of these chickering's
were recorded in England about 100
minutes after heavy shocks had taken
place to the south of New Zealand,
and as this was the interval of time
that large surface waves of earth
quakes would take to travel over a
path about $50 degrees in length it
was concluded that the hitherto neg
lected records were the surviving eff
forts of large earthquakes.
This was confirmed when fifty-one
of the after shocks from the Jamaica
earthquake of 1907 were recorded in
Great Britain at exactly the time at
which they would be expected to
reach this country. The committee
was not aware that any one of these
shocks was recorded by other types
Of instruments in Britain or Europe.
A similar story was told in all the
registers published since 1907. Earth
messages appeared to be passing be-
meath observatories all over the
world, but their existence was not
recognized generally because the in
struments were not capable of re-
cording them.

the DIVIDENDS
PA|O REGULARLY
Increase in Rates Not Substan.
tiated by the Actual
Facts

Chicago. Sept. 22.-Today's session
of the railroad rate hearing before
the interstate commerce commission
was devoted largely to the cross-ex-
animation by the attorneys for the
shippers of the witnesses of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul and the
Chicago and North western railroads,
who on direct examination testified
they believed an Increase in the rail-
way rates necessary to maintain the
financial integrity of the three proper
ties. w. A. Gardner vice president
of the Northwestern line, was the first
witness subjected to the quiz by At
torney Clifford Thorne, who repre-
sents the live stock shippers in twen-
ty-two states. Thorne's questions
were intended to bring from the wit
ness the admission that his company
had made enough met earnings to re-
build the road. had kept up it's right
Of way and equipment by the use only
of the earnings without affecting the
dividends in the years when the in
come apparently was light as we'll as
other years.
The other roads which will present
testimony in support of their conten-
tion that the raise of,rates is needed
at this time are the Chicago. Burling-
ton and Quincy. the iowa Central. the
Minneapolis and st. Louis. the Chicago
and Alton. the Missouri Pacific, the
Omaha road and the Great Western.
Stubbs' Speech.
Topeka. Kas.. Sept. 22.-Gov. W. r.
Stubbs of Kansas outlined the pur-
poses Of the interstate rate conference
in speech at the opening of the ses-
sion here today. The governor said
the railroads of the country had COM
bined to advance the freight rates on
a scale never known before. He said
the railroads on their own initiative
had opened up the whole question of
ascertaining the physical valuation of
their properties by the testimony of
their officials before the interstate
commissioners. Gov. Stubbs also de-
plored the tendency of the railroads
to favor the large cities in the adjust
ment CT freight rates.
