That New York has Formulated a new
declaration of Independence from Eng
land, or rather london. SO far rs the
fashions of men wearing apparel is con-
cerned. is indicated by the figures cover
ing the importatiu of British made cloth
ing for the past year While feminine
America continues 20 look to Europe ana
particularly Paris for guidance as 40
what it shall or shall not wear mascu-
line America seems rapidly to- he assert
ing its independence" of foreign made
styles. just how this change is to be
accounted for in view Of the fact that
two decades ago foreign-made clothing
was supposed To be- the most correct thing
among New York's hest known men IL
attributed to several causes. among which
Is the import duty and the growing d.
verRence of English and American tastes.
That men are no more free than women
from the necessity Of some established
standard of fashion is indicated by the
fact that nearly one thousand taiiv~
with a gross business amounting to about
$5o.Go,G0 annually will meet here next
week at the convention of the National
Association of Merchant 'railors at which
the styles for the ensuing year will prac-
tically be decided upon. Man. however,
seems to have one great advantage over
woman in this connection since while no
one can be found who il willing to believe
that such recent innovations as the hob
bile skirt aim at comfort. it Is we'll known
that the changes made by the associa-
tlon from year to year are based first OF
all on this practical point, so that mere
man seems to be safe at least from the
extreme fashions which of late years
have applied to women.

What is probably the strangest amuse-
mcnt proposal that has ever been launch
ed here has just come to light in the
shape of a proposition which COntem-

has ample backing to carry through the
novel proposal. That such a plan should
appeal to the owners OF the building Is
indicated by the large rent which an
otherwise useless roof would bring IN.
While the central location and the great
size of the grounds would undoubtedly
break all attendance figures. The dan
ger of batted or thrown balls going over
the fences which would enclose the roof
and possibly iniure PEDESTRIANS on the
street below is eliminated by the fact
that the grounds would be so larG" as to
make 1t impossible for such a thing to
happen. Whether or not the novel plan
goes through would seem to depend
chiefly on the reports Of engineers as TO
whether the building has been strongly
enough constructed to stand the strain
which the erection OF the plant and the
