NOTES OF THE TRADE.

In an interview wit Mr.. Fred Stan
ton, Of Stanton Brothers, manufactur-
ers and importers of women's neck
wear, he said: "The present week
marks the end of the women's neck
wear season for fall, which has been a
successful one from the manufacturer
standpoint, and from reports from the
trade the retailers are meeting with
equal success in disposing Of their
purchases to the consumer.
"Sheer materials of the organdie va
riety have had the preference, and in
dications are that for the early spring
season the same character of goods
will be favored. Shapes shown will be
new and in great variety. The prob
ability is that the high back pleated
collar, low in front, will be the best
for the early season. White is favored,
although white and black and the sand
and putty shades will no doubt be much
in vogue.
"The difficulty in getting styles from
abroad has put the American designers
on their mettle, and they have risen to
the occasion. In fact, the reverse Of
ordinary conditions is true, and many

WHAT THE BUYERS
WILL LOOK AT TODAY

American shapes are being sent abroad
for execution in foreign merchandise.
"Women's neckwesr is a line that is
often most popular in periods Of econ
omy, as a garment may often be fresh
ened by an attractive piece OF neck
wear, where the woman would hesitate
to buy an entirely new costume. This
seems to be the case this season, and
the trade in general looks forward 70
the continuance of the present good
business"
A big embroidery importer and
manufacturer says: I'm reference 20
the embroidery situation for spring,
1915, we look for very favorable bust
ness; in fact, indications have not
been better in the last few years than
they are at the present time. The wider
skirt, which is now fast coming back
and will be in vogue next spring, will
certainly bring a boom TO embroideries,
as il will mean that the petticoats, in
stead of comprising from one and
half to two yards of embroidery, will
contain from two and a half TO four
yards. As far as outer garments are
concerned, we understand that some OF
the most fashionable dressmakers are
designing skirts that contain from five
to six yards of material.
"As far as materials are concerned
on outer garments, we expect 20 sell
quite few embroideries made on wolfe
and transparent cloths, while on un-
derwear we believe the trade will want
more cambrics and nainsooks and less
muslins."
and finishing concerns in this market
state that thousands OF pieces of silk
crepes have been withdrawn from their
establishments during the last week or
ten days by the manufacturers.
Silk poplins are scheduled for q big
run next spring and summer by some
commission houses in the Fourth av.
silk district.

Sentiment Scores First.

As one Stock Exchange man put it,
The decision meant more TO the Street
than /. cid to the railroads, because its
greatest influence was sentimental. The
commission, he said, had at last yielded
70 public opinion. The thin edge of the
wedge had effected an entrance.
Looked az from any other point, the
decision was disappointing. If the
whole per cent had been granted
hopes would have run high for an ad-
diiionsl increase; the carriers might
lave dreamed of q further concession
lat should bring their returns up to
N APPROXIMATION of their needs. AL
los. inevitably they would have re-
azssd orders for material that have
ven too long deferred. The steel COM
u,iss and the equipment manufactur-
IN would Immediately profit; the pur-
:sssing power Of the men and indus
tres eontributory 10 them would gain
IN their turn, and the wheels of pros
psriy would have started shafts driv-
nc and mills turnin~ ali over the
gentry. Some such result he ex-
ptesd, anyway but not on the scale
he. might easily have been if the COM
mission had taken a really broad view
d the position of the carriers.
