OTTOMAN navy Is NO MATCH
FOR The ALLIES FLEET IN
THE opinion OF EXPERTS
Struggle in the Mediterranean is Likely to
be Brief and Disastrous for the Porte

London, Oct. 80. Ihe battle ARA!
as a result of the entry of the Otto
man empire into the internationa
struggle now stretches in an almos
unLroken diagonal line across Europe
and, as Turkeys adherence to the Teu
tonic side Of the quarrel can hardly
be the last new factor in the war
which gradually is engulfing the east
IN hemisphere. i has Te1ahea from
the Atlantic to the Indian ocean.
Greece, Rumania and Bulgaria are
practically certain to the drawn into
the conflict, which already is engag-
ing 10 nations, and the ultimate in
clusion of Italy and Persia, with per-
haps the Asiatic lands to the east
ward of the latter country, is today
regarded in London as scarcely less
probable.
Hot on the heels Of the Turkish Of
fensive movement against Russian
ports on the Black Sea, has followed
what amounts to declaration Of war
by Emperor Nicholas in the form of
instructions to his ambassador and his
consuls to quit Turkey forthwith, and
this will be followed promptly by sim
liar action on the part of each Of the
aIlied governments. The appearance
Of the allied fleet off the Dardanelles
will be natural sequence.
Turkey Is prepared
The Intervention of The Porte, since
its persistent disregard of the warn
ings of Great Britain, France and Rus
eia has been anticipated and is said
TO have been thoroughly prepared for.
It is accepted in London as another
proof Of the German need to endeavor
10 draw off Russian forces from Po-
land and Galicia. The Muscovites,
however, have large and growing re-
serve which they claim is quite cap
arle of attending to the Turkish fac
tor without depicting the armies now
in the field.
These latter. apparently are making
steady progress towards the entrench-
eli position on the River warthe IN
Russian Poland. where the Germans
undoubtedly will make another at
tount tn rend their enemy.
The Russian re-occupation Of Ger
nowitz in Bukowina is considered i'm
portant, as this town is railroad
junction and its possession frees an
other railroad line to Lode, which
again is in possession Of Russian
troops.
Hungary Would Quit
Rumors are again current in London
that Hungary, weary Of war in which
she had nothing to gain, would vel
come chance to quit It is suggested
also that Seryia soon may be compel
led to retire within her own borders
and assume purely defensive role Il
consequence Of the national exhars-
tion resulting from the fighting Of
three campaigns IN as many years.

The Classifying Sleeve.

RY their sleeves you may know them.
- That has been true Of the frocks of
today.
For several years sleeves have not
been of especial Importance. Most Of
them have been cut on kimono lines
and 30 they were no sleeves at all, and
perhaps that Is why they were not i'm
portant. But this year we have a cut
and-dried sleeve to deal with again.
To BE- sure, the new evening gowns
have no sleeves. But this absence of
sleeves is as characteristic Of the style
as any other sleeve detail would be.
The new evening bodices are cut in
two points that clasp on the shoulder
under a jeweled buckle or clasp or un-
der an artificial flower: or else they are
cut off square and held over the shoul-
ders with jeweled bands or strands OF
artificial flowers.
z But in the daytime the sleeve is a
regulation sleeve, set into a regulation
armhole. And it is long and rather
snug and usually reaches well over the
hand. Sometimes a bishop sleeve is
used-one full above the wrist, gath
cred into little wristband. Some-
times, too. OF course. the kimono ar
rangement Of the bodice is followed.
It has been brought SO nearly to per-
lection that It is too bad to discard it
entirely. For it is both comfortable
and attractive in appearance.

productions. The theater was closed

A stage like that is one colossal ma

pensive wearables in the way Of gowns,
tailleurs and millinery attest This
pleasing shade comes In high-prfced
yardage goods also. and the soft
mouse-brown color may be perfectly
matched in broadcloths, chffons, silks
and trimmings. Particularly smart Is
a frock Of mouse-brown pussy willow
silk. with box-pleated basque and
tunic, the basque opening over vest
of mouse-brown velvet. embroidered
with gold thread.
New coats of fur fabric are most fan
cifully fashioned. One model OF imita-
tion broadtail has long ripple coat tails,
lined with brocaded velvet, which looks
much like mottled leopard pelt. An
other coat in Russian style Is sashed
widely with black satin below the
waist line. Still another has fare
tunic, from which a fringe Of monkey
fur swings. Even the longest coats es-
cape the skirt hem by five inches. and
the skirt hem escapes the ground by
four inches, the dainty buttoned boot
being distinctly visi BILE.
The final note of modishness in 1eath-
er belongings is struck by mottled
English pigskin. The reddish brown
leather, fecked with cream. red and
golden brown, is mounted with gold
plate, and one may have handbag or
a pocketbook of this leather in various
shapes and styles.

Style Tips About Town.

A cap for perfuming the hair Is a
new idea. The cap is made Of softest
daphne silk, interlined with cotton
sheeting. SO that it may be slept in
without the least discomfort. The
crown is ful1ed to a two-inch- wide
band that fits down over forehead and
ears. a snap fastener holding this band
closely. yet not as tightly as an elas-
tic through q casing would hold around
the head. The hair is drawn up high
and coiled, the high. narrow cap pulled
down around the head and the band
fastened securely. In the morning the
hair has a delicate. subtle fragrance
from the sachet powder sprinkled be-
tween layers of silk and cotton. Orris
and violet are the favorites.

elusive shade of the fall season, as ex-
