Imports Are Decreasing.


Meantime imports Of automobiles in .
to the United tSates show a decreas-
ing tendency. From 1902 TO 1906, be-
fore the industry had developed i'm
this country imports rapidly increas-
ed. from about a half million to mil
lion dollars, the high record in imports
of this class OF vehicles. Since 1906,
however, the imports have steadily de-
creased, last years total having been
less than 2Ia million dollars. In 1906.
according 20 the published reports of
the, Bureau of Statistics, Department
of Commerce and Labor, imports and
exports of automobiles were of about
equal value, imports into the United
States in that year being $4.9l020S and
exports therefrom, S4.4O9,1S6. The fol =.
lowing year witnessed a shifting of
the balance Of trade i'm automobiles
from the imports to the export side,
since which time the excess of ex-
ports has steadily increased until in
1911 il was $19190,41S, imports in that
year having been but $2.44G,94S and
exports $2l,G36,66l, or about times
the value of the automobiles imported
in the same year.
The aggregate value Of automobiles
passing through ports of the United
States during The Hast 10 years exceed
cd 100 million dollars. The approx
mate figures are as follows: imports
q million dollars: exports to foreign
countries, 20 million; shipments to
Porto Rico, Hawaii, and Alaska, mil
lion dollars; a total for this compare
lively new article of commerce, of 1872
million dollars in 10 years.
Great Growth Of Industry. 't'
The rapid increase in exports of au-
part due to the rapid development of
the domestic industry, in part To the
growing use of vehicles of this char
acter throughout the world. In 1905
the exports of automobiles from
France, the United States. the United
Kingdom, Germany and Italy. the lead
ing manufacturers Of automobiles, ag-
gregated A. million dollars. and in
1910. but two years later. had grown
To as million. In 1900 the value of
automobiles manufactured i'm the
United states was million dollars; in
1905 80 million; and in 1909. 249 mill
lion. That the increased consumption
OF automobiles in this country is be-
ing more and more supplied by ma
chimes Of domestic manufacture may
be inferred from the fact that imports
have greatly decreased during period

intact, as to be extremely short in
front and really to Suggest the bolero idea.
Paris, indeed, is using the actual bolero
IN many ways and rumor has it that
these cutaway effects are forerunners of
that little garment in the spring; but
whether or not that is true, time alone
can prove. What we do know is that the
snlartest coats seen at the Horse Show
were much cutaway with tails of generous
length at the back. A great deal of rcd
is being worn this season and a really
superb suit made with abruptly cutaway
coat and straight, narrow skirt with Just
suggestion OF drapery, has for its material
velvet in a rich shade of Burgundy with
collar and cuffs of skunk and that COM
bination is really superb. Coats Of
brocade over skirts of plain velvet are
liked for formal occasions also and a
smart costume of this sort is of olive
green with band of the almost inevitable
skunk at the edge of the skirt while the
same fur makes the collar and cuffs of
the coat. This skirt is of the very newest
sort with slashes at the sides to allow OF
possible movement, for in spite OF all
statements to the contrary, the narrow
skirt remains. 1t may be draped: it often
is but, however it may be cut, it is closs
and narrow at the feet and the woman
who would be smart must learn to walk
in it without exaggerated awkwardnes5
To be really graceful is out of style. A
great deal Of what is known as the
beetle" silhoutte is to be met at every
smart function, for draPeries on the
skirt are apt to be full Just below the hip
line while the extremely narrow effect at
the feet combines with the dropping
shoulder effect to give just the beetle
suggestion.
Coat suits arc almost always of the
three-piece sort with the blouse making
an integral part thereof although of a
lighter material, and the Oriental in
fuence is apparent at every turn. Even
the simple costumes are apt to include
little bit Of Oriental embroidery, while
the more elaborate costumes show just
the combination of rich colors that seems
to belong to the East. An exceedingly
handsome costume seen at one Of the
fashionable hotels was of navy blue
chiffon velvet, the skirt slightly draped at

THE winter season is now the one
of gayety and lovely toilettes.
This season we will see some
what unusual array, for fashions lend
themselves to beautiful treatment with
singular success. Colors as well as fabrics
ale lovely in the extreme, and every known
kind of lace is used to soften their effect
The cloaks that make such an important
feature of formal dress are made loose
and ample and take the most graceful
folds, yet are in the simplest possible
STYLES, and brocaded velvets, rich silks
and the like are at their best made in this
way.
Moire effects arc conspicuous, and the
younger contingent is sure to be made
happy by lovely gowns made Of moire
and other silks combined with chiffon and
like fabrics Of the lightest, thinnest sort.
Plaits have returned, if in a novel form,
and plated hounces, plated frills and the
like finish many toilette. Panniers have
dropped, to take gracef J folds and draP-
cries, and the fur that is ever feature Of
cold weather will be seen in almost limit
less variety.
All possible skins are called into use,
and trimmings Of fur as we'll as garnitures
of fur are among the smartest Of all things
1t adorns afternoon gowns and evening
costumes to give really suberb effect.
vet, on the other hand, the younger folk
will wear extremely simple costumes
made of charmeuse satin, charmeuse crepe,
chiffon velvet and materials Of the kind
These fabrics arc lovely in them
selves and do not require trimming
They drape beautifully and take ideal
lines, and simple effects are always the
youthful ones. The sash is almost
ubiquitous, while artificial flowers are
used in most effective ways. A single
big rose tucked into the belt will often
give the finishing touch to a toilette
Roses of gold gauze are marvellousIy
beautiful and are greatly used, and fire.
quently the drapery of a skirt is held by

was removed to reveal a most exquisite
blouse. This last was of cerise chiffon
with a bib-like trimming Of the velvet
and was finished with a fancy collar and
tie Of velvet embroidered in rich red
while the girdle was made I'D of the
velvet, a little of the cerise and bits of
the fur. One of the handsomest costumes
seen at wedding of the week was of dull
blue velvet with a side-plaited tunic of
crepe de chine in the same color. The waist
was OF the two materials combined, the
velvet giving a bolero effect while the
crepe formed the under portion, but all
the outlines OF the bolero were embroid-
cred with an Oriental design and colors
and at the waist line was draped girdle
with sash ends Of the blue combined with
red cTepe, the ends banded with embroid-
cry Of the same sort. More charmeuse
satin is used for afternoon gowns Of a
simple sort than any other one material
and a great many of them show collar,
cuffs and sash ends embroidered in this
way to give a most distinctive touch

provide the use of rich and beautiful
color and, almost as an inevitable result
the sash is much in evidence.
Hats for wear with tailored suits are.
for the most part, small, close-itting and
with what is known as "stick-ups" ar
ranged in every possible and curious way.
Directly at the front is one of the latest;
but, even as | write, memory recalls
an exceedingly handsome and elegant
costume of rose colored velours de laine
with little turban of velvet in the same
shade trimmed with band of chinchilIa
squirrel and two straight feathers placed
a little at the left of the back with stems
meeting and ends pointing in opposite
directions. To be odd and unusual is the
great desideratum in hats at least. One
of the most talked of costumes at the
Horse Show consisted Of a gown of
white worn beneath a coat of metallic
brocade in blue and gold colors with a
big scarf collar of silver fox. 1t was worn
with big, low hat Of black velvet trimmed
with two aigrettes, one placed under the

INTERESTING FEATURES OF WINTER FASHIONS

The sash is tied wherever it gives
the most becoming result. Among
novelties for this use are velvet ribbons in
moire effects and silk ribbons in woven
gold designs with gold thread. Much
gold and silver are used, but the new
nets and laces are soft and Glmy and
Of the shadow order, and are infinitely
more becoming than the sitter, harsher
sorts. Bead embroidery is a feature
and bugles are extensively used. Net
embroidered with crystal bugles and
pearl beads gives a really delightful re-
suit, and just such effects are in the
height Of style.
Combinations Of colors with distinctly
Oriental suggestion are among the novel
ties and, indeed, the Oriental note is fire.
quently apparent in one way or another.
The wonderful embroideries Of the East
are employed as trimming and not infre-
quently, dressmakers have work of a
similar sort done upon the garment itself,
using the Oriental form and coloring as
suggestions. Again one often sees really
bright reds with buses and such effects as
yellow gown with sash of old rose but,
as a matter of course, these shades
must be selected with the greatest care.
Rightly used, they are beautiful but any
deviation in shades is likely to mean dire
results. Crude effects are never good. The
combinations mentioned are studied with
the greatest care and the exact shade of each
color selected to give the desired result.
To put together the wrong red and the
wrong blue would mean a wholly mar
tistic result and the entire scheme Of
modern dress is built upon artistic lines
A great deal of vivid red is being used and
the new Besnard red is especially smart
1t is exceedingly rich and beautiful, being
between scarlet and cardinal, and com.
bines with black to give peculiarly rich
effect. Dinner and evening gowns of that
color are really lavishly trimmed with let
and jet, let it be added, is to be extensively
worn throughout the season.

backward. Even the newest hair dressing
partakes of the idea and consists of u
turban-llke drapey with an aigrette rising
directly at the center front. Dinner and
evening gowns are showing many inter
estIng features. Those for the Opera are
extremely low but dinners and occasions
Of the kind require neCks of a moderate
KIND and sleeves, those that extend TO the
elbow and those that extend to the wrists
are seen. What is known as the guimpe
idea prevails and great many lovely
costumes are made Of beautiful brocaded
silks and velvets with guimpcs of thinner
material. A lovely one seen today is of
brOCaded Charmeuse in a subdued shade
OF corn color. The skirt has a slight train
and Is prettily draped, otherwise without
trimming save for the buttons that hold the
drapery. The guImpe IS Of chiffon in the
same color with long mousQuetaire sleeves
finished with pretty little turned over
cuffs of the silk and a very striking fea-
ture IS found in the girdle Of velvet ribbon
in a dark, dull shade of old rose that is
exquisite on the yellow background. Con
trastlng colors used in such wavs are much
worn and, when they are well handled,
they are wonderfully beautiful. As A
matter OF course, the suggestion comes
from the ORIENT, whether the actual com
bination savors of the East or does not.
A really exquisite dinner gown that makes
a part of a November trousseau is made
of amber colored chiffon over white satin.
The skirt is quite plain, Just a little long
ihe chiffon forms a plated tunic that
drooPs slightly at the back and terminates
a little below the knees where it is held BY
succession of small yellow roses. The
body portion is of chiffon with low neck
guimpe and sleeves of shadow lace and
girdle Of velvet ribbon in lovely shade OF
lavender. Red and black is always
striking and is being much used. An
exceedingly beautiful gown is of the new
Besnard red chiffon and satin of the same
color. The tunic is closely like the one
just described but is finished with a wide
band of jet and there is a jet effectively
arranged upon the simple bodice, while
1t may be interesting to add that this
bodice is cut with kimono sleeves caught
up at the shoulders with Jet while there
are elbow length under sleeves that make
a part Of the guimpe. The red is the
shade which has been mentioned in pre-
vious letters, which is neither scarlet nor
cardinal but partakes Of the beauty Of
both.
