Ashford called upon the newspaper
representatives who were present dur
ing this discussion, wanting to know
why the facts in these accident cases
mad not been reported to the public.
He had not seen any such accident
stories in print in the Honolulu pa
pers. He was informed that perhaps
the newspapers had not heard of these.

districts and are never reported to

they were reported, they were pub

Ashford then took up the immigra-
ton problem with the Secretary, re-
citing the details Of the steamship
Senator case and mentioning the share
taken in 1T by Territorial officials.
Secretary Fisher. at the close of this
discussion, asked to be given the atl-
thentic details during his coming ses-
sions In Honolulu. He said ne real
lied il was rather hard for the Terri
tory and the planters to spend such
large sums in bringing immigrants
here to settle and supply the neces,
sary labor, only to have them pack up
and hurry away to the Coast shortly
after their arrival, leaving the Terri
tory holding the bag"

that foreign labor agents are kept
away from the newly-arrived lmmt-

Olson and Hemenway. and instances
were cited. Secretary Fisher asked
that all the evidence obtainable in
these matters be arranged and placed
before him during his final hearings

Ashford Tells Of Accidents.
Attorney Ashford said he had been
told that one of the accidents since

Company's line. The eldest, a girl OF
ten or twelve years, was carrying a
baby on her back, and leading the
two others, one by each hand. He said
the little group was struck and he
understood that all had been killed.
This. charge, Ashford said, was
made on information given him by a
Honolulu attorney, to whom the rela-
tives Of one of these victims had APP
pealed for advice. The attorney had
looked up the law and informed them
that they had absolutely no chance to
obtain satisfaction. Ashford did not
have a copy of the statute with him at
the time he made these statements,
but he quoted the law substantially as
it is given above.
That was indeed a terrible thing,
remarked Secretary Fisher, when the
attorney had concluded his story Of
the Japanese children. IF the law is
as you state it to be, it is more dras-
tic than anything of its kind ever
heard of on the mainland. | want you
to produce the statute when we return
to Honolulu and TO bring some defi-
mite evidence along the lines You have
just mentioned"
Attorney Hemenway, while he said
he had not read this particular statute
for some months, and was not very
familiar with it, was inclined to be-
iievs Ashford had misconstrued the
measure, and that it was not as dras.
tic as he stated. Hemenway said he
thought more severe statutes were in
force in some of the States on the
mainland, and that one of these was
in New England.
How can any law be made more
drastic" Ashford asserted, eff this is

He found that in this district the
homesteader is welcomed by all, and

ting the chemisette and arranging lace over the N-shapcd opening.
 The last figure shows one that can be made after the manner shown on the figure and become adapted to street as well as indoor wear; or 1t can be made without the peplum and with square neck to become much simpler. In either case, it is closed at the left of the front and that fact in itself makes 1t desirable. The sleeves can be made in three-quarter or full length, so that several quite different results can be obtained from the use of the same model. Street dresses will be much worn throughout the early season and this one, made from serge or any similar material, would be ex- Ceedingly fashionable. Both three quarter and long sleeves are likely to be correct for a long time to come so length that suits her better Light weight serge is the most satisfactory material for dresses of this sort but broadcloth will be much used this season and it IS handsome There are eponge Is smart and has many ad-
 
 velvet on wool are always handsome and are much in vogue. A wool fabric on another of contrasting weave is always handsome. The frock is a very simple one to make. The blouse includes only the shoulder and under-arm seams with the set-in sleeves stitched to the armholes. The skirt Is cut in four gores and the back gore can be made in panel style ot gathered. T'.e peplum is entirely separate and the waist and skirt can be joined at eitter the high or the natural waist line.
 TT is with November that the first
 cool days come. but 1t is also with November that the thought of holidays IS in the air; consequently the little folk will find a variety of needs For school and occasions of the kind girls like sailor dresses as we'll as, if not better than, any other sort, and they are always attractive and becoming.
 Serge Is a favorite material for their making, and they are very pretty with trimming of plaid as we'll as Of the regu- lation blue and white. For street wear tippets and muffs are almost essential All sorts of simple, inexpensive furs are used, and there are q great many sets of the kind made from the fur plushes that are exceptionally handsome this year.
 For the younger children coats are uniformly long but the older girls wear them in varying lengths. There is a preference for rough cloths this season and boucles, chinchillas and the like are exceedingly smart.

The first figure in the lower left hand corner of this page shows a misses frock in semi-prinCessc style that is well adapted to the favorite charmeuse and similar materials and to the light weight woolen materials It includes the new sleeves that are sewed to the blouse portion at the long shoulder line and a big collar that Is eminentlv becoming
 In this case, it is made with three quarter sleeves but long sleeves are being much worn and the dress can be finished in either way. There Is a three piece skirt lapped onto a narrow panel at the front and, beneath the over lapped edges at the left side, the closing is made invisiblv In the illustration, one of the new silk and wool novelties Is trimmed with satin but this entire frock would be charming made from charmeuse satin or Charmeuse crepe with the collar and cuffs of the same or of a contrasting color. Smoke gray with amber would be extremely fash ionable and extremely pretty and all white IS to be much worn by young girls. If two materials are liked, the panel at the front of the blouse and at the front of the skirt could be made of different material A plain mate rial with the panels of striped or plaid would be effective and plaid Is much in vogue for uses of the kind. Many girls are wearing dresses with cOllarless necls and, in place of the stock collar, the neck can be cut to any desired depth and finished.
 The second figure shows one of broadcloth with trimming of silk. This is trimmed with one of the new striped silks and the combination is an effective one. Girls are wearing so many pretty materials this season that such frock as this one can be treated in numberless ways Corduroy for the entire dress with trimming of broadcloth would make a handsome effect, or velveteen could be treated in the same way, or charmeuse satin could be used with trimming of velvet to be beautiful, while, for simpler needs, serge is admirable and the light weight wool ratine Is excellent. Ratine with broadcloth IS always good. Again, while the shawl collar is pretty and generally becoming, many girls like the round neck, and the single revers shown in one of the small views Is
 smart and the dress can be finished in this way with the stock collar or without it as may be more becoming When the shawl collar Is used, the dress can be worn with the chemisette or without it, for this larter Is quite sepa- rate and 1t can be finished with the stock collar or with round neck. A pretty effect can be obtained by omit

Chiffon broadcloth is liked, too, for indoor gowns, and 1t is always beauti- lul. It is especially handsome in cer- tain Colors, and copper with trimming of black IS as beautiful as 1t is smart, while some of the gray-blues are ex- quisite treated in the same way. Cheni- settes of white or cream lace gives relief, and are much in use. Women who are seeking costume that can be worn for any simple occasion, within doors CT on the street with a long coat, will find nothing better than broadClOth or poplin treated in such way.
 Every variety of the flat collar that rolls away from the throat Is fashion able. A great many dressmakers recorn- mend the making of such gowns with separate chemisette, for they can then be worn with or without as occasion requires. The open neck Is often desirable within doors, while the chemi- sette IS really necessary to a good effect upon the street.
 Some of the velvets and corduroys are woven in such light weight that they, too, are desirable for the indoor costume, and they are always pretty, especially desirable for young girls and small women to whom youthful styles are becoming. Nut brown Is exceed ingly fashionable and is peculiarly handsome in corduroy.
 A lovely effect could be obtained by trimming with broadcloth in cham pagne color, for broadcloth on the cor duroy background is extremely beau tiful.
 We look for contrasts this season almost inevitably. and contrasts can be so handled as 10 be brilliantly success ful. What we need to avoid is garish color effects, and the attempt to copy exceptional combinations. The artist will frequently put two colors together that, at first thought, seem incongruous, but because he succeeds 1t does not follow that the untrained eye should difference in shades makes all the diff ference between success and failure Frequently there is much study given before such an effect IS produced.
 We all know how beautiful the green of the moss is on the brown of the tree trunk, and not a few of these great designers go to Nature for suggestion It too often happens that their followers forget the models and remember only the two tints, missing the essential point and putting together shades that are not designed one for the other.

THE gown in semi-princesse style
 is the favoritc one for simple
 occasions, and just now we are being made happy by front closings. Women who can afford the luxury of maids may not find this last feature an important one, but to the average reader the gown that can be adjusted without assistance must be a welcome one.
 All sorts of simple materials are used for the making of such costumes but poplin is a great favorite. Serge ot the lightest quality is to be exten- sivefy used and both striped and plaid materials are in vogue, being used for entire costumes and for trimming effects. With the wool fabrics, velvets and satins are used as trimming and ex- tremely effective contrasts are obtained.
 Tn gowns. of this sort the straight, narrow lines prevail and the simple models are preferred, but there is a great deal of variety, nevertheless. Sleeves of almost every length are fashionable this winter and one can wear a gown with a V-shaped neck, a gown with high collar, a gown with a chemisette or a gown without a chemisette with equal propriety. Just so long as the wearer looks pretty and attractive and the general lines are followed, La Mode IS content. She is generous in details, at least, and the question of the neck finish always is animportant. one.
 Buttons are craze, so generally are they used, and in such variety are they shown, while buttonholes, both real and simulated, are important as trimming as well as for prosaic use. Often draperies are held by an orna- ment consisting of a button and but tonhole, made from piping or bralds for the simple frocks, of rhinestone, for the costume of greater elabora- tion. Panels frequently appear to be buttoned into place whether such IS the fact or not, and wherever buttons can be used they make a smart effect.
 Simulated tunic effects are much liked and are pretty, while practical women welcome them because they can be used with contrasting ma terials and often make rcmodelling inter , esting as well as possible. Real Scotch plaids are extensively used in combination with plain materials and ! the costume that combines the two is eminently chic.

A great many ot these weaves are found in combined silk and wool threads also and the wool poplin is as smart as the silk poplin. Silk serge Is used as well as wool serge.

COTTON MARKET
CLOSES QUIET

New York, Oct 2s.-Cotton futures
opened steady at a decline of 1 to 4
points and sold about to 10 points net
lowef right after the call under liquida-
ton and local pressure inspired by the
failure of early weather advices to indi-
cate damaging temperatures in the south.
On some demand, prices rallied or 5
points from the lowest during the first
half hour. but Wall Street and Southern
Houses were sellers and the market later
eased off again with prices about I to 10
points net lower during the middle of
the morning.
The market was less active in the late
forenoon but showed continued nervous
ness with fluctuations irregular. Prices
at midday were about s to S points net
lower with December relatively easy UNI
der selling by houses with Southern con-
nections.
The sharp slump at noon in the course
of which prices fell to 4 points was at
tended by rumors of further serious fl
nancial trouble in Europe.
No important feature developed during
the early afternoon, with prices ruling 6
to points lower or slightly up from the
lowest on covering and trade buying.
