For evening weddings the decidedly
low neck IS still worn. and for after
noon weddings a V-shaped or round
line is still in favor.
Many of the new gowns are made
with close-fitting tulle, very long

bride goes sloveless.
There is an effort under way to bring
back gloves to their own for formal

perhaps the most popular, although

Nutria is a new fur that is used in
wide bands on velvet suits.
The new muffs are immense. They
look like ornamental sofa cushions
One smart shape is the crescent, with
a small opening at each side for a
hand. These big muffs are not stiffened
and they are SO soft that they roll up
like ball.
The new Innings form the greatest
novelty of the new furs. Brilliant col
ors are used, among them old gold and
Egyptian blue. The MARITIME satins are
we'll exploited. There are also pictorial

used, and it was so attractive that it
is to be revived this year.
Coats, dolmans and fanciful capes for
afternoon wear are made of baby lamb

neckpieces of baby lamb and moleskin
are exceptionally novel. Many are cut

ornamental by brim that flares wider

1t may be two or three months DeIore
the skirt is worn as Paris sent it over,
but in the meantime, while many may
not wish the four and five yard hem,
the definite movement toward fullness
and width is too emphatic to be easily
ignored. You may insist that you will
not accept this fashion and insist that
the new skirt is cut on the old line, but
you will regret the defiance before jan
uary. and 1 take it that your clothes
must last longer than that.
The outlook for this winter is not so
reassuring that even rich woman can
contentedly face the prospect of dis
carding autumn things from her ward
robe as actual winter approaches.
Therefore, it is wiser to work carefully
every garment now in order that
one may be spared annoyance and ex-
ira work later.
The style of two decades ago has
come to life this season in the mixture
of one-piece frocks and top coats. 1t
is a question whether or not the fash
ion is more expensive than the coat
suit. Most women think that it is a
welcome change. They argue that the
top coat is we'll chosen; that, taking
the rest of the wardrobe into consid-
GRAFTON, it saves money in the long
run.
Instead of wearing out skirt that
belongs to a coat by using it with a
separate blouse in the house, as even
the most careful woman does, the one
piece frock wears out as a whole, and
1t can serve for dozens. of occasions
where a coat suit is impossible. If
the top coat Is sufficiently attractive, it
can be used as an evening wrap as
we'll as for the street All the top coats
are long, reaching nearly, if not quite,
to the very short hem of the skirt be-
meath, but this does not signify much,
for the skirts of all frocks are so short
this season that they seem to need
an underskirt.
The popularity of the one-piece frock
has led to the making of a street cos
tune that looks like long coat. 1t is
a strange garment, almost medieval in
it's simplicity. but it does not appeal to
the woman who lives in a very cold
climate: it is not quite warm enough
for the street and it is too warm for
the house.
For autumn and spring in the north.
well in those climates which are
moderately genial from Christmas
until Easter. the garment will probably
be most acceptable. 1t is admirable
for temperate days. The model is also
used for one-piece frocks of thin ma
terial, and they are so comfortab BILE
by them.
America in September this style of
garment; at first. the women looked
askance at it, and then approvingly.
One design shows pointed yoke at
the shoulders, but excepting this break
in the line. the garment falls in one
piece to the hem, fastened in front and
beited in with sealskin to match the
round collar and broad cuffs.
Beneath this slip Is an unboned lin
ing of black satin which is about an
inch shorter than the outer skirt and
is finished with knife pleating This
lining shows when the outer skirt is
left unfastened. which, by the way, is
one of the vagaries of the season.
Another frock. made on the same
plan. has belt at the hips of broad
black silk braid and an arabesque of
black soutache outlining the hem and
the side of the front. Ever so much
soutache is used this winter in straight

SIR MOSES EZEKIEL, HERE
FOR SOUTH'S UNWILLING,
TELLS OF PEACE MEMORIAL

Sir Moses Ezekiel, sculptor of the Con-
federate' monument to be unveiled at Ar
lington today, arrived yesterday from
Cincinnati to attend the unveiling cere-
mony. The famous sculptor is well
known IN Washington. He was soldier
Of the Confederacy and has visited
Washington many times since he moved
to Europe, after the war.
The visitor was the guest at luncheon
yesterday Of Col. and Mrs. ]. F. Rey-
nolds Lands at their home, 1f3 Twenty
first street northwest He was enter
tained at dinner by Prof. r. A. Rice, of
the Library Of Congress, at the Brighton.
After the unveiling, Sir Moses will go
to Lynchburg, Va, to complete arrange
ments for the erection of a statue Of
the late Senator John W. Danier, which
he finished recently in his Rome studio.
The statue already is in Lynchburg
Speaking of the Confederate memorial
the sculptor said:

pzssionately believed to be the right. On
the base Of the monument are the words:

plowshares and their spears into prun-
ing hooks"
Sir Moses is anxious to meet President
Wilson. He knows former President
Roosevelt well and admires him. The
sculptor has been decorated by emperors
and kings. The Emperor of Germany
ard the Grand Duke OF SAKE Meningen
have conferred upon him the cavalier
crosses, and the Queen of Italy the Cross
OF an officer of the crown. He has fur
thsrmore been honored in various other
ways in appreciation Of his genius.

veterans at Newmarket There the ca

the war Moses Ezekiel went to Germany
to study his art. Thence he went to
Rome and until the government turned

had his studio there. His busts are nu-
merous and some are famous. Among
them are those Of Jefferson. Edgar Allan

The letter of the mediators to Rafael

Carranza would respond So quickly.
The constitutionalists served notice on
the mediators that they would make
another appeal on Thursday. 1t would
define the exact terms on which Carranza
asked for y voice in settling Mexico's
fate.
As soon as Carranza renews his plea
for representation at NiaSara Falls the
American delegates will be instructed by
Washington again to support the rebels

GUN-RUNNNG INTO MEXICO
FORBIDDEN, BUT BIG CARGO
ALLOWED TO REACH REBELS

Importation Of arms into Mexico from
the United States has again been for
bidden. The order has been in effect
several days Secretary Bryan admitted
its existence for the first time yesterday.
Bryan explained that the order Is not
In the nature of a formal embargo proc
lamation by the President. but is purely
a state Department order. enforcement
Of which will be in the hands of the De-
partment of Commerce and the Treas
ury, Jointly.
The Ward line steamer Antilla however,
was given clearance papers and allowed
to depart from New York yesterday for
Tampico with cargo of three million
rounds OF ammunition and an aeroplane
consigned to the constitutionalists. In
an attempt to explain this fact Secretary
Bryan said yesterday that he supposed
the order had been late in arriving at
New York, as 1t had gone to southern
ports OF the United States first
Serious doubt of the legality of this
method of preventing arms from reach
ing the warning factions in Mexico is
being expressed by governmental law
officers
1t was suggested to Mr.. Bryan that
the federal gunboats Bravo and Pro-
greso, now lying at Puerto Mexico
and the gunboat Zaragosa, lying in
the river south of Vera Cruz, could
easily intercept and head of the Ward
liner. and thus prevent ammunition
from reaching the rebels. Navy De-
partment officials declared today that
they had received no intimation of a
charge in the attitude of the admins
tration toward Tampico. but that a
standing order had been issued some
time ago to keep the federal gunboats
constantly under watch. and their
least movement will be followed by the
United States ships.
