Moline Mail is
NOW A BANKRUPT
Involuntary Petition Filed in
Federal Court and Pa
per Suspends.

The Moline Mail suspended publ
cation today, following the fling in
the federal court at Peoria Saturday
of an involuntary petition in bank
ruptcy. Information concerning the
amount OF liability and assets could
not be secured today, it being claimed
that a complete list of the creditors
has not been received by attorneys
for the paper When Referee Z. L. Hen
~ can hold a hearing it is not known,
but it is probable it will be held in
this county soon.
The first of this week announce
ment was made that the Mail had dis
pensed with its telegraph service and
this was taken to mean that suspen-
sion was near. Some time ago the
stock in the paper was turned over to
the bondholders, with the understand
ing that if the property was not dis
posed of or made a paying venture
within q specified time, publication
was to suspend

|OVERALLS LATEST
FAD FOR WOMEN

New York, Jan. 22.-rhe latest
thing in women's wear-oveTaHss-
arrived here today. They are not the
usual type of overalls worn by men,
but are made of silk or linen. They
were designed by Paul Poiret, with
the idea Of being an improvement on
the combinations. One OF their chief
claims to popularity is that they are
especially designed for dancing. How
ever. it is expected they will find
equal popularity for ordinary wear.
The new creation is shaped exact
ly like a pair Of overalls, with the
exception of where the bib is on the
ovcralls the new article has . bodice
band, which fastens in the back. Sim:
plicity is the keynote Of the whole
affair. Each leg is finished at the
knee with q band Of linen or silk, and
the trousers are neither too tight nor
too loose. but just right for comfort.
Above al, the overalls should not
show a scrap Of lace or ribbon.
