LAVISH COSTUMES
At ATLANTIC CITY
Extravagant0utla Distinguish
ina Feature of Easter Parade.
SILKS REVEAL FIGURES
While the Exhibition OF Color Was
Barbaric, There Was Also the
Saving Grace Of Good
Taste.

Atlantic City, N. J.-While many
said that the Easter parade was con-
sentative, others declared it was the
most barbaric exhibition of color and
variety in dress they had ever seen.
1t was both. 1t was a spectacle Of
spectacles, but sensationalism was
absent and good taste predominated.
1t was a well-ordered throng, too, be-
cause there were only % policemen,
one stationed at each intersection.
1t is safe to say that never before
have there been such stunning cos
tunes and such an apparent expendi-
ture of money to make them stunning.
There was an astonishing number of
sheer silk gowns, sharply outlining
graceful figures. Flounced skirts num-
bered thousands, while the tier skirts
in every conceivable fashion of in
dividual selections were equally numer-
Gus. Some of the ruffies stood out
stiffiy as if they had been wired.
Some of those who delight in study
ing the latest whims of fashion thought
for a time that the promised dress
sandal for milady had actually arrived
from Paris. The cause of the commo-
ton was new kind of slipper of the
thinnest leather, and pink in color,
with straps passing up and around the
ankle, where they were secured with
pins big as the customary slipper
buckle. All this was revealed at the
'f1atiron corner" when the wind blew
little harder than usual.
What the men call baggy skirts were
simply innumerable, but a great ma
jority of the women preferred the
closer fitting garment. Next to black,
blue predominated, but there were
thousands of others of every hue Of the
rainbow
Tango garters made of lace and at
tached at the knee were revealed under
several slit skirts as substitutes for
petticoats. Countless were the skirts
and bolero jackets constructed of large
Powered materials, some of the jackets
almost suggesting kimonos in their
brevity.
Many maids and matrons carried tall
walking sticks.

An INSULT To
| THE u. s. NAVY
Gunboat DoIphin's Men Arrested
at Tampico.
RELEASEDONMAY0' DEMAND
Apology Acknowledged BY Mexico
City Is Apprehensive About Ad.
miral's lnsistence Upon Salu-
tation Of the Flag.

Mexico City.-The paymaster and a
detachment of marine from the United
States gunboat Dolphin were arrested
by a Mexican officer at Tampico,
marched through the streets and, after
being held for time, were released
on the demand of Rear-Admiral Mayo.
A launch from the Dolphin, carry
ing the paymaster and small detach-
ment of marines, put in at Iturbide
bridge, at Tampico. The Americans
were after supply of gasoline. They
were in uniform, but unarmed. The
launch few the American flag.
Colonel Hinojosa, commanding a de-
tachment of Mexican Federals, placed
the paymaster and his men under ar
rest, and paraded them through the
streets.
Release followed on vigorous repre-
sensations to the authorities by Ad-
miral Mayo. Gen. Ignacio Zaragoza
expressed his regret to the Admiral.
Although President Huerta, in an off,
cial statement to Nelson O'Shaugh-
! messy, the American Charge d'Affaires,
Aoo dpOiOSlLCu JHc QnuSudl Lcdt-
BUSINESS of the Mexican commander at
Tampico, there exists here great unS
easiness because Admiral Mayo is re-
ported to have demanded that the Gov
eminent authorities at Tampico salute
the American colors.
President Huerta's statement was as
follows:
I'm view of the fact that the Charge
d'Affaires Of the United States hears
that the whaleboat carrying the Ameri-
can sailors was flying the flag of his
country, an investigation will be made
| to establish the responsibility of Col
onel Hinojosa. In accord with the
| line of conduct which the Government
of Mexico always has followed in full
| fillment of it's duties of an information
al character regarding all nations, iC
deplores what has occurred.
Called Mistake OF Subordfnates.
This case has grown out of moth
| ing more than mistake of subordinate
officials, since the superior in rank of
| this same official, General Zaragoza,
at once proceeded to point out that
what had happened was unintentional,
and imposed upon Colonel Hinojosa
disciplinary punishment, within the
| faculty of said General Zaragoza.
IF the investigation which is to be
made should develop greater RESPONSE
bility on the part of Colonel Hinojosa,
corresponding penalty will be i'm
posed upon him by the authorities
legally competent in the case"
| RearAdmiral Frank F. Fletcher, the
ranking admiral of the Gulf, who is
now at Vera Cruz, has forwarded to
Charge O'Shaughnessy Admiral Mayo's
report to him, in which the Admiral
says the paymaster and marines were
marched through the STREETS two blocks,
then back to their boat and released"
Asked DisavowaI and Apology.
In view of the publicity, Rear-Ad-
niral Mayo asked for disovowal and
apology, and also that the officer in
charge Of the Mexican squad should
be punished, and that the American
flag Should be saluted Immediately.

RAILROADS LIKELY
TO GET INCREASE
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Convinced BY Evidence.
SHOWING SEEMS CONCLUSIVE
Early Decision Urged In Order That
the Present Uncertainty May
Be Ended and Business
Stimulated.

Washington, D. C.-The impression
is becoming more widespread every
day that the Interstate Commerce
Commission will grant the Eastern
railroads substantial increase in
rates as a result of the convincing
testimony submitted by them since
per cent advance case was begun.
Carriers involved may not receive
the full per cent. they have asked
for. 1t Is quite probable that blanket
order to this effect will not be issued,
but an increase that will go far toward
meeting the financial needs of the rail
roads seems to be assured.
And if the full amount involved in
the present proceedings is denied by
the commission the reason will be, it
is now believed, that the commission
ers have effected savings in other di-
rections which, they hope, will COM
pensate the roads through the con-
servation of the revenue received I'M
der the present rate status.
For instance, the commission has
conducted a simultaneous investiga-
ton into the free or cheap service
given by common carriers to private
lines, to tap lines, in switching, in
spotting cars and in handling of
freight at terminals. All these ele-
ments have been brought into associa-
ton with the advance asked for and
they promise to play an important
part in the findings of the board.
Representatives of the carriers who
have appeared before the commission
have readily granted the Importance
of the inquiry into these side issues.
They have welcomed any readjustment
of the relations of the railroads to the
private lines and terminal companies
that will save their companies money,
but they have never agreed that the
sum involved in this free service is
large enough to meet the exactions
outlined in the pending case.
| The commission is under direct pres.
sure and influence from every quarter
to render it's decision at the earliest
practicable moment. The carriers are
| for expedition. The whole business
world, in fact, is urging that the pres
ent uncertainty be ended at the earliest
possible moment.
Practically all testimony, for and
against the railroads, has been sub
mitted The arguments will be short
and the briefs will be easily digested
There seems no likelihood, therefore
that the doubt in this quarter will con
tinue much longer.

FISH HATCHERY FOR STATE.
Provision Made In a Bill Reported
FavorabIy.

Washington. Provision for the
establishment in Maryland of special
fishery establishment, which will be
the only one of it's kind in the whole
country, is made in an omnibus fish
hatchery bill that was favorably re-
ported to the House by Representative
Faison, of North Carolina, from the
Committee on Merchant Marine and
Fisheries.
The bill appropriates 100000 for the
establishment of this Maryland fishery
experimental plant and for Is other
fishery plants in as many States. In
the other States the plants will be the
usual sort of fish hatchery and cultur-
al plant They were to cost $4,000
each as starter. But in Maryland
the plant, instead of being fish hatch
cry, will be devoted to the study of
diseases and problems in connection
with the propagation of fish and $40,-
900 is the initial sum recommended for
the establishment of this plant The
bill does not attempt to fix the location
of the plant, but leaves that to the dis.
erection of Secretary Redfield.
Tie Maryland project is based on
the provisions of bill introduced by
Representative Frank o. Smith, of the
Fifth Maryland District. The report
filed contains letter from Secretary
Redfield, of the Department of Com
merce, stating that the proposal to
establish an experimental station for
the study of fish diseases and fish
propagation" as provided for in the
Smith bill, is strongly Endorsed.
In his letter favoring this Maryland
station Secretary Redfield said: Fish
culture has reached such high degree
of perfection in the United States, and
the magnitude of the operations as a
whole leaves little to be desired There
is, however much room for effective
work in fish culture similar to that con-
Quoted in animal and plant industry at
agricultural experimental stations, and
one of the greatest needs of the service
is an experimental station for the
study of fish diseases and the propaga-
ton of fish breeding.
THE matter of improving the food
and game qualities of fishes by select
i've breeding is subject to which prac-
tically no attention has yet been given
in this country. but the possibilities are
alluring and the project is well worthy
of support from Congress in view of
the great improvements that have been
produced in domestic animals and
plants by the application of scientific
methods.
1.-THE serious aspect of disease among
cultivated fishes has frequently been
set forth in the Bureau of Fisheries re
ports and brought directly to the at
tention of Congress. An experimental
station would, no doubt, pay for itself
every year in the actual money value
of fish, saved that are now lost at the
Matching stations all over the country
because of Lack of knowledge of the
proper means for preventing and
curing the various destructive maladies
to which domesticated or semi-do-
INVESTIGATED fish are table,
