The Slender Silhouette With Soft Draperies Above

sparkle and glitter and not any sug-
gestion Of dull or dead black. Jet is

steel, green glass beads, iridescent
beads and even moonstones are COM
bined with the jet to give variety Of
effect. Black tulle Is also used In gen.

the top now, however heavily may
hang its draperies. weighted with
beaded trimming. These heavy, Jet
ted gowns are apparently held up by
bead shoulder-straps or by a new
bead harness which goes around the
throat; as shown in the picture of a
new jet gown for opera wear. This
gown IS not all black as the picture
Seems to indicate; but has an indie
%scribable blue-black gllmmer like the
shadowy places In @ moonlit lake.
Moonstones. in fact, help to produce
this beautiful effect, and the tulle
draperies. weighted with jet beads and
cabuchons. are hung over moonlight
blue satin. An Of moon
stones and jet Is set at the front of
the bodice and a smaller cluster OF
moonstones clasps the Jet harness
which passes around the neck. The
jetted bodice Is dropped very low. but
the decolletage Is partially filed In
with white tulle. A scarf of gauzy
black tulle floats over one arm and
shoulder; the other arm is entirely
bare. A smart accessory of this cos
tune Is the couture comb Of rhine

CUT IN FRENCH
\ SUGAR YIELDS
fAgsociated pressl

The official figures of the produc-
ton of sugar in France during the
1914-15 season have not been pub
lished, say the reports of the U. s.
Department Of Commerce, but from
information obtained from the presi-
dent Of the sugar association, the pro-
duction up to the end of February,
1915, amounted to 290,S86 metric tons
with five factories still working. He
stated that the total production is es-
timated at 100000 metric tons or about
one-third of the production of the pre-
yious year.
The war found the French sugar
manufacturers poorly prepared for the
coming season. New apparatus that
had been ordered to replace the old
machines had not been delivered, re-
pairs that had been started were not
completed, and their supplies of coal,
coke, lubricating oil, bag cloth for
their filter presses, ETC., had not been
put in.
After the mobilization was ordered
transportation from the farms to the
factories and vice versa was complete
ly disorganized, as horses were requi.
sitioned by the Government and the
railway trains were used for military
purposes.

Russia-Petrograd. May 25. 1916
A meeting was recently held by the
sugar refiners. the. object of which
was to endeavor to moderate the ris,
ing tendency of the refined sugar
market The "Kieff Exchange" says
that the meeting decided to propose
to all refiners to increase the volume
OF their production during the current
period by 71s per cent, which would be
in addition to the supplementary ) per
cent already decided on, and to in
crease the issue of refined sugar on
the inland market from 80 to 100 per
cent, that is to release all the reserves
of refined sugar that may be found in
the factories; and to recommend the
fixation of the value of loaf sugar at
rouble % copecks per pood above the
market price of crude sugar at the fac
tories.
Not counting the refineries of the
Kingdom of Poland. about 62,500,000
pools of refined sugar may be expect.
ed during this campaign. As during
the preceding campaign the total con.
tingent of refined sugar outside the
Kingdom of Poland, amounted to 81.
G00,00 pools, the expected production
of refined sugar during the current
period in the opinion OF the meeting
should be more than enough to satisfy
the requirements of the inland market
There Is, however, fear that to eff.
feet higher rate of production can
not be done for want of workmen, ma.
terial and above all, fuel
The valuation for refined sugar at
rouble. 25 copecks per pood over the
cost of crude sugar instead of the /
rouble previously established, has
been agreed upon in consequence of
the higher cost of working, due to the
dearer fuel. dearer labor. dearer ma.
terials, etc. The meeting was Of opin,
len that the measures taken to regu.
late the refined sugar market will pre-
serve it from the violent fluctuations
in price which have characterized the
market recently in Pettograd and 9TH
er centers of consumption.
