Blue in Pale Shades Favored for Peisnoirs

between the Jackets fronts but sepa-
rating at the waistline and curving very
gradually toward the sides near the
hem Of the underrobe.
A peignoir so elaborate that it might
under certain conditions pose as tea
gown Is in two distinct sections-a
lace coat and a slip in palest blue satin.
So wide Is the long strip of lace en-
ployed that while one edge furnishes
finish for the neck, running TO
V-pointed decolletage just above the
bust line, the opposite edge finishes the
sleeves formed by merely catching the
lace together at the elbows. Between
the waistline and the bust the edges
Of the lace length are lightly caught
together, and the coatlike garment nat
urally slopes toward the sides, to end
far below the knees. The back, hang
ing straight, makes an uninterrupted
line from the neck. Equally good would
this model be in white, with lavender
or pink.
While blue is so unusually prominent
among peignoir models, pink is by no
means neglected. Difficult to resist is
model in shell-hued satin and white
chiffon. The silken slip, sleeveless and
of square decolletage, falls straight
from the shoulders to the carpet. which
II sweeps in graceful, il not clearly,
fashion, but at the waistline it is loose
lv drawn in with self-toned satin rib
bons, tying at front. Over this robe
is tackled a loose flowing. sacquelike,
full length garment In white chiffon
cloth, a-jour bordered, and provided
with ecclesiastical sleeves. Nothing
could be simpler or more readily drawn
on. Yet. when adjusted, its effect Is
exduisitely dainty.

4 Woman Explorer Finds a Tribe Which, Though Hap-
ing No Religion or Morality and Practising Race
Suicide and Prohibition, Is Most Prosperous.
Yet from the Happy Useful Life of the Masis Lady
Mackenzie Points Out the Analogy to Conditions
in Civilized Countries.

they had nothing which could be called
q religion. They seem 10 have no idea
whatever Of worship, and they have no
prayers. There have been other ex-
plorers among the Masis, although l
am the first white woman they have
ever seen. The white men who have
been among them will bear me out
when say that they seem to have no
religion whatsoever. They are a brave
people, much less superstitious than
most primitive peoples"
"Do you connect that fact with the
other one that they have no religion ?"
Jealousy the objectionable Sin.
81 wouldn't 20 that far" said Lady
Mackenzie. an fact, although 1t seems
TO work out very well indeed for the
Masis, l haven't given up my religion.
But l was interested In trying TO dis
cover their faith IN some gods, and
perhaps I was even more interested
when ! became convinced they had
none.
Neither have they any sex morality.
A man has many wives, q woman has
many husbands. How they manage 1t
so they dwell together as peacefully
as they do, don't know. But dis
covered that they consider the great
est sin (for they have a code Of right
and wrong to be that Of jealousy. It
may be said to rank as the unpardon-
able sin In the Mast tribe.
There is one thing which the MASKS
do not do, however. They do not drink.
They are a tribe upon the water wagon.
Many primitive peoples, Of course, have
intoxicating liquors which they make
and Of which they are as fond as CIV
ilzed men-some Of them-are OF
whiskey and Of brandy. And when
they have no native liquors they usu-
ally acquire a taste for them, seem
ingly upon the first drink. They will
ask explorers for intoxicants, seeming
especially fond of gin. But the Masis
do not care to drink at all. They are
truly sober people.
"The Masis are the richest primitive
people in the world, believe. They
have great focks Of cattle and sheep;
there is nothing like poverty among
them. They have their villages, and
all seem to share in the prosperity.
They are an industrious, happy, pros
porous people.
Deliberate Race Suicide.
"But the Mssis are dying out This
is deliberate. They are, consciously,
practising race suicide. This Is not
because they have not found life worth
while. but because they see that con-
ditions are changing, and that for their
children and their children's children
life will be very different matter
They know that the white races will
colonize their country and that when
the European comes among them their
independence and freedom will go;
that they will be, In reality, little more
than slaves for the white men. They
are a proud people, and rather than

uses Il is rather misleading. A native
man OF any age Is called a boy.
It was because Lady Mackenzie is a
mighty huntress that she was able to
make friends with the Masis. AS has
been said, they do not care for white
people, and never having seen white
woman before, they were not friendly
to her. But one day two Of their tribe
happened to see lion charge her.
When the encounter was over, Lady
Mackenzie was quite all right and the
lion was dead. That made her position
among them secure. They would come
to her tent to visit her, bringing their
children with them, and they would in
vite her to visit them In their homes.

RECOMMENDS SITE
FOR ARMOR PLANT
Commission Picks Philadelphia
for Government Steel
Mill.
From rhs Tribuns Bureau. ]

Washington, Feb. 26.-Recommending
Philadelphia as a site, the commission
named TO investigate the erection of a
government armor plate plant fled its
report in the House to-day. The mem
bers of the commission were Chairman
Padgett Of the Naval Affairs Commit
tee, Senator Tillman and Rear Admiral
Strauss.
1t is estimated that a plant Of 90
900 tons capacity will cost sl0,30o,oo0
while one Of 10000 tons will cost APP
proximately s6,6OO,OOO 1t justifies the
expenditure.
For the site the report calls atten-
ton to the fact that the government
owns at the Philadelphia Navy Yard
ample land for the erection of an
armor factory.
philadelphia is an ideal place for
the erection of such a plant" con-
tnues the report, "as it is accessible
both by deep water transportation and
by railroad and is fine labor market
However, the Navy Department will
make the selection of a site if Con-
gress authorizes a plant, but we men
ton that the government owns land al
Philadelphia and the navy yard there
has facilities to assist in the erection
of the plant"

TWELVE WAITING

Commissioner Caminetti Has
10000 Applications and
1000 Jobs a Month.
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, Feb. 26.-There is one
job for every twelve men out Of employ
ment, according 20 Commissioner Of
/ immigration Caminetti. Unemployed
persons are filing applications with the
| Commissioner at the rate of about
IL, 900 a month, while opportunities are
reaching him at the rate OF about 200
a month. These applications and op-
portunities are in addition to a vastly
greater number sent direct to officers
in charge Of the various employment
zones" The work assigned TO these
officers had become so great, Commits
sioner Caminetti said to-day. that he
had been compelled TO furnish an as
sis.sIt 90 each of them.
The latest innovation in the plan Of
Secretary Of Labor Wilson and Com
missioner Caminetti was launched to-
day, when requests were sent TO oil
lea ling newspapers of the country ask
ing that proofs Of the help wanted"
sections Of their publications be sent
each day 20 the officers in charge of
the employment bureaus. Mr.. CANT
netti said the heads of bureaus at six
teen stations would try 10 fill these
places from the lists Of applicants on
file.
Commissioner Caminetti intends to
extend the invitation for the help
wanted" section TO every publication
in the country, and as soon as Congress
70 mally authorizes Il government bu-
reau Of employment employment agen-
cies will be established in every state.

SENATORS SCOUT
TREATY SESSION
Do Not Expect to Return to Act
on Colombian and Nicara-
guam Conventions.
fFrom Tie Tr!bune BuIe,u.

Washington, Feb. 26.-The idea that
the Senate would be called IN extra
session TO take up the Colombian and
Nicaraguan treaties was secuted by
the majority leaders of that body to-
day. Enough votes cannot be mustered
now to ratify either Of these agree
ments. and the Senators do not want to
meet after March L. A special session
was not discussed at the Cabinet meet
ing to-day.
Administration leaders devoted them
selves TO smoothing the way of the
Philippines bill in the hope Of securing
action upon it before adjournment.
They met an obstacle in the form Of a
demand from the Republicans that the
preamble of the Jones bill be elm
mated or that its assurances be con-
fined to the granting of self-govern-
ment instead of independence. If this
is done a vote may be secured unless
appropriation bills and conference re-
ports intervene.
Some effort was also made in behalf
Of the water power bill, but there is
little hope of bringing it TO a vote this
session.
The ship purchase bill has been left
TO its fate. Democratic leaders con-
template bringing il out Of conference
on Wednesday, but with no expectation
Of having it approved by the Senate.
Appropriation bills have been so de-
layed that most Senators believe the
Senate will be obliged 20 devote all of
its time to them.

The State Department began a fight
Yesterday, through the federal grand
Jury here, to prevent the fraudulent
use by German agents Of American
shipping papers TO cover breaches OF
neutrality arising in this country. The
grand jurys part was to investigate
alleged violations of the customs laws
involving false clearances and false
cargo manfests of four ships. il is
charged the Hamburg-American Line
Quilted them in this country to send
supplies TO German cruisers.
The vessels were the Norwegian
steamships Fran and Somerstad and
the American steamships Lorenzo and
Bcrwind. The investigation grew out
of complaint made in November by
Sir Courtcnay Walter Bennett, British
Consul General, alleging violation OF
Section 5,2S5 Of the revised federal
statutes, which makes it crime TO
augment here the forces Of one bel
lieercnt against another with which
the United States is at peace.
The charges recited that the Ham
burg-American Line tried to use the
Fran and Somersrad as auXiliaries TO
the German navy by carrying fresh
water, coal and contraband of war
from this country 10 the cruisers
Karlsruhe and Wilhelm der Crosse
while they were engaged in rading
ships of the Allies in the Atlantic
Ocean.
Part of the documentary evidence
was an agreement purported TO be
signed by Karl BUM, director of the
Hamburg-American Line. II engaged
the Fran and Somerstad ostensibly to
go to South American ports, and IN
dertook, for the Hamburg-American
Line, TO assume full responsibility for
the vessels 10 the owners, in case mis-
haps from belligerents should come to
them.
The agreement provided that letters
delivered TO the captains were TO be
treated as private, and that "in case
the vessels are damaged by reason of
the attempt TO transfer the cargo or
part of the cargo to German steamer
or man-of-war. the Hamburg American
Line will be responsible for all damage
and the hire of the ships during the
time the vessels are being repaired"
After the slips had been cleared for
their ostersible ports the owners be-
came suspicious, and by investigating
learned that the clearances were false,
and that instead of being destined to
South America the ships were to make
a course TO q point on the west coast
Of Africa TO give supplies TO the Kaiser
Wilhelm der Crosse. In view of this
the agreement was cancelled.

Stegler had another conference with
Charles II. Griffiths, his counsel, yes
terday. At this conference he told the
lawyer that his orders were to see
Issondall, the chief of the German
Secret Service Bureau, on his arrival
in Berlin. He was particularly IN
structed TO be careful about giving the
password that was to be supplied him
when he reached the German frontier,
as he was assured many English Of
fcers were there, attired IN German
uniforms, complete even to Iron
Crosses. This password, he said, was
never given TO him.
Wife Tells of Threat.
Incidentally, he added that he was
instructed to look into the construction
of boats in England intended TO be used
TO block the entrances TO the Mel
Canal and thereby bottle up the Ger
many navy.
Mrs. Stegler turned over letter to
Mr. Griffiths yesterday, in which she
was advised 70 keep her mouth shut II
she wished to avoid trouble and keep
her husband out of Jail for long term
of wears. The letter was typed, and,
according TO her, had words mispelled
that in other exhibits in the case are
also Improperly spelled. She also re-
ceived many threats by telephone. she
alone seemed to be impressed by the
letter.
