your immediate attention that
provision may be made In the APP
preparations for the maintenance
OF this department.
Controller Heineman disagrees with
the mayor that q purchasing depart
ment would be saving to the tax
payers. During his investigation Of
purchasing departments In other cities
tho controller says he found that the
system of purchasing supplies In De-
troit is more practical and economical
than the maintenance of an extensive
aud expensive bureau, az In other
cities.
"A purchasing department seems at
first glance a business-like and cap
tiyating proposition" says the con-
troller In his report. 1T certainly is
such in cities where affairs have been
loosely managed. The purchasing
question has been carefully canvassed
by my department during the last few
years and the scrutiny Of all the bills
OF the departments has given an ex-
cellent view OF it, probable workings.
As long rs our government IL largely
administered by honorary boards Of
high grade personnel. and as long as
ell bills are audited in turn by the
departments, the controllers Office and
publicly by the common council, II is
difficult to see what Improvement
could be brought about by purchas-
iay department. There may. however.
be a few staples, such as cement.
drains, brick. lumber. sand. ETC., also
in forage. oils. janitor supplies. etc,
in the purchasing of which the depart
ments could work together aud get
some advantage Of price based on
large consumption and freight con-
s,gnment as we'll as storage; and as
to staples would recommend that the
department using the larger amount
take care Of the other departments by
a clause In it's contract to that effect"
Mayor Marx In explanation OF mis-
stated that he investi-
gated the purchasing departments In
several cities he visited last fall and
was greatly impressed with their ap-
parent efficiency.

Society Woman \
MRS. TAFT HAS HER
GOWNS MADE OVER
Has Knack Of Using Few Touch
es Which Make Dress
Look Like New

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-"These
are the days OF a :aw yards of silk,
some lace. and plenty of artistic taste.
and q woman who has goodly share
or the latter. can dress on $1,000 a
year"
This was the declaration today of q
prominent society woman mere, dis
Tent that she had always clothed her
self on less than three figures-aud In
tended to do so while mistress Of the
White House.
Mrs. TAFT usually has from six to 10
evening gowns each season. But sew.
eral of these are made over" A fine
evening gown with ultra-lines can be
transformed with q few touches by an
artist into an almost new" gown for
a following year. Mrs. Taft, herself
artistic In temperament, with the aid
OF good dressmaker. has not frssitat-
ed thus to effect TRANSFORMATIONS" in
a number Of her gowns.
One OF the wealthiest OF the cabinet
fainilies-the Meyers-have great
many gowns made by dressmakers
who work at the Meyer home and un-
der the direction Of Mrs. Meyer.
Mrs. Wilson and her daughters are
extremely artistic and society expects
them personally to plan their gowns
instead Of leaving the whole matter
10 expensive modistes. Moreover,
President Wilson has already intimat-
ed that he may do away with q great
many Of the big functions a. the
White House go that many fine gowns
may not be needed by the new White
House family.
Mrs. Taft employed dresemaker
whose work she personally superin-
tended at the White House.

D.aS or De La Barru
To Be Next President

MEXICO CITY-VIA GALVESTON,
Feb. 25.-The next president of Mex
leo Ia likely to be either General
Felix Diaz. or Foreign Minister Frdns
cisco De la Barra, with the chances
favoring the nephew Of Porfirio Diaz,
as the Mexican people now appear to
see their only salvation in military
ruler.
This Is the concensus Of opinion to-
day among natives and foreigners In
closest touch with the situation.
Emilio vasquez Gomez, who Is re-
ported to be trying TO win the sup
port Of General Orozco for the presi-
dency, is not considered seriously.
His main claim TO recognition now is
the ingratitude shown him by Ma.
dero.
Meanwhile, the work of pacification
Is being conducted by the new tenn
porary government with all possible
despatch and firmness OF purpose.
The governors of all but the states OF
iCampeche, Yucatan and Tabasco have
been won over. according TO officia
statements from the palace today.
The greatest menace considered by
President Huerta and his cabinet ir
the activity OF Etilio Madero. who 4,
reported to have organized 1000 Ma
deristss and declared that he will
fight TO the death before surrender
ing to the power Of the new regime.
A federal force has been detailed TO
attack this aggressive member of the
Madero family.
Huerta supporters say the only way
to prevent American Intervention and
It's accompanying horrors OF war lies
In strong support Of the present mill
tary Dictatorship. That the govern.
ment now plans to temper justice
with more mercy than heretofore
shown, was indicated by the prepare.

gress OF a bill pardoning all political

SURPRISED THAT
BILL IS HELD UP
City Palmer Bennett in Detroit
to Present His Case Be-
fore Council Committee

, T.. H.. Bennett, the Chicago archi
tect, employed by the city plan and
improvement commission, to work out
plans for the Improvement Of Detroit
came to the city. Tuesday morning
to present his side of the case before
the council committee on claims and
accounts which is holding up bill
for services amounting to about
s., 900
! was very much surprised to fina
the criticisms of the work which we
have been doing on the plans for De.
troit." said Mr. Bennett. Il was in
San Francisco when the criticisms
appeared, and II seemed unusual to
me that such criticisms should be
printed without some word from the
city plan and improvement commits
sion.
The plans for Detroit are prac-
tically completed and will be ready
for inspection as soon as the com.
mission can pass upon them. This
does not mean, OF course, that they
are absolutely final. because changes
will probably have to be made AZ
they seem desirable or necessary In
carrying OFT the plan but from a
practfcaf- standpoint the plans-are
completed.
The commission is fully aware OIL
the work that has been done on the
Detroit plans. II Is our practice To
build these plans up progressively
and | have had frequent conferences
with the commission on various parts
of the plan as they came up. Actual.
ly more work has been done on the
Detroit plan than on man yof tn.
other city plans which have been &C.
cepted.
The contract with the city calls
for $1,000, and II was arranged tina,
the actual expenses should be paid az
the work progresses. The city has
paid portion OF these expenses, ana
the bill which Is held up, represents
part OF the expenses which have been
incurred since the last payment"
