SHORT SKIRTS
Will Be Worn by MiIady This
Spring, is Decree of the
Manufacturers.

CLEVELAND. Dec. 17.-"short, full
and youthful" will be the spring slo-
gan for women's wear as a result of
the decision of the style committee of
the National Cloak, Skirt and Suit
Manufacturers Association. Skirts
will be short and coats will be cut
shorter. Tucks and frills will empha-
size the skirt fullness. Ripple effects
will be good. Checks and stripes in
all materials will be favorite and the
lack OF materials and dyestutfs will
be made up by designers by a wide
range of cut and trimming.
Pockets on skirts and cuffs on the
sleeves of bold design, in prominent
color contrasts, will be features. Gar
ments for middle aged women will
also be as jaunty as those of college
girls.

FRENCH NOW EXPECT
RECALL OF PENFIELD
tpy ArsoeI.TGo prresl

PARIS. Dec. 1--WE shall be very
much astonished IL the American gov
eminent does not reply to the Aus
trian government by simply instruct
ing Ambassador Penfield to ask for
his passports and by handing his
passports to the Austrian charge at
Washington" says the Figaro: Aus
trials reply is barely disguised re-
fusal.
1.-THE only satisfaction Austria gives
the United States is that 1t does not
keep the United States waiting for 1t.
President Wilson's longanimity has Its
limit and the dismissal of the Austrian
charge at Washington and the recall
OF Ambassador Penfleld will show this
is not a question of a fit of energy but
a carefully thought out resolution"

WASHINGTON. Dec.' 1.-THE
note when 1t was laid before Presi-
dent Wilson and the cabinet, was
discussed more than an hour.
The gravity Of the situation caused
by Austria rejoinder to the Ameri-
can demand, which is considered
evaslve, unsatisfactory and unaccept-
able, remained unchanged.
The next step will not be decided
upon until some, minor points not

up. The apparent discrepancies are
not important and may be due to

ment code, but they will be cleared
up before another move is made.
Secretary Lansing said after the
cabinet meeting that he did not
know when the o. .ciaI text of the
note would be given out for publica-
ton and that 1t certainly would not
be made public until he had had an
opportunity to study 1t carefully.
Diplomatic relations. although in
danger OF being broken Off are not
likely to be discontinued at least be-
fore there has been another exchange
of notes with Jenna and so the crisis
may be said not to be In Its final

ASKS $4,000 DAMAGE
Latest Chapter In Stabbing ARRAY
Occurring Last Summer.

The case of T. E. Gosnell VS.. Phil

demands $4,000 damages from the
defendant for injuries alleged to have
been sustained upon July IA, 1914,
when he was stabbed by Jackson, is
being heard in district court to-day.
Jackson is wealthy farmer living
q few miles northwest of Oskaloosa
and Gosnell resides near New Shar-
on. The stabbing ARRAY occurred on
the north side of the city park here

man ran to the Office of Dr. Jarvis
just across the street, and was rush

he slowly recuperated from the
wound. '..@. :,
Jackson was indicted for assault
with intent to commit murder by the
grand jury at the October court last
year. He was tried during November
and the jury, after being out about
sixteen hours, returned verdict oil
not guilty. The defense set up was
that Jackson had been enraged by
hearing stories Gosnell was said To
have told and was suffering from a
form of insanity when he did the stab
bling.
The civil suit now being tried is
the latest chapter in the story. IN
his petition, Gosnell AYERS that he
was permanently injured by the
wound, being deprived of the use o.
his left arm. A jury was empanneled
to try the case yesterday afternoon
and the taking of testimony was be
