transportation. AS another war meas
ure for securing a supply of sugar,
orders were issued in all the sugar
growing colonies of Great Britain for
| bidding the sale of sugar except for
, i'm perial use.
AT the outbreak of the war the Visi-
| BILE supply of sugar available for the
American market was barely sufficient
to last until the new crop of American
grown sugar should begin to become
available in October. The withdrawal
| of 100000 tons from this supply ere
ated a serious shortage, and inquiries
received in the New York market in
dicating that England would seek to
obtain several hundred thousand tons
more of sugar, and that other Euro
pean countries might endeavor to pur-
chase sugar here threatened to make
this shortage much more serious. AS
a result, American purchasers in the
sugar market, seeking to protect their
own trade, entered into active COM
petition with the foreign buyers in the
scramble for sugar. To make the sit
uation more acute, consumers in all
| parts of the country rushed to lay in
| supplies far in excess of their ordi-
nary purchases, thus accentuating the
scarcity.
The prize for which the buyers of
| Great Britain and America are con-
tending is the Cuban sugar crop. Eng
land and the United States each inn
port annually about 100000 long
tons of sugar. The Cuban crop is
about $500, 900 tons, enough to supply
one of these two big customers but
entirely inadequate to meet the needs
of both. The prospect, therefore, is
| for a keen struggle on the part of
these two countries to secure the bulk
of the coming Cuban crop in case the
war continues for any considerable
| length of time
When the present blockade of ship
ping is relieved, it is probable that
Great Britain, and possibly also the
United States, may obtain some sugar

Unquestionably the essential features
of the autumn are found in the hared
skirts and long wasted effects. Here is

exceedingly smart and attractive yet is so
simple that the amateur can undertake in

raglan effect at the front and are cut in one

joined to the body portion, there being
pockets inserted beneath the laps.

The old basque Of generation ago
is out again, but IS far more artistic
affair than we will see in the old pho

called bodices now, are hip length,
with just a suspicion Of looseness at
the waist, which has wide net girdle
not drawn in and to be worn to tilt up
wards in the back above the waist
line and end in butterfly bow.
These bodices are buttoned up the
back, and unlike the old-timers with
numerous seams, they have only the
one at the shoulder, which caps per-
fectly tight and long sleeve.
Mostly these bodies are developed
in velvet, of a shade that contrasts
with the dressy skirt. For instance, a
striking Redfern gown has appeared
with draped skirt of black panne vel.

and the girdle is black net. Black vel

inches above the edge of the sleeve,

the back Of the hand. Embroidery, or
bands of fur, are used to finish the
bottoms of these waists. The neck ad-
