New York, Aug. 9.-Manhattan Is

buttoned at the elbow and removed dur

dress reform and broadway took to it

Now an enterprising shoe concern has
come out with a russet sandal shoe,
which may be the summer shoe of the
future. 1t has strip of leather from
the toe to a strap with a buckle at
the ankle and is easy to put on. Many
men in New York refuse to wear hats
on summer evenings.

'CAPERT0N HOLDS

Admiral Pays Soldiers Of Re-

Home.
TAKES CUSTOMS RECEIPTS
Gen. Bobo and Bourand. Another
Rebel Leader. Lay Down Arms.
Seek Amicable Settlement.
TAKES CUSTOMS RECEIPTS

That the Haitian political leaders are
rapidly becoming convinced Of the wis
dom Of cooperating with the United
States government and its forces now in
partial military occupation of the coun-
try. was indicated here yesterday in
official advices.
Cen Bobo, the chief revolutionist, has
resigned his command and consented to
the disbandment and disarmament of his
forces. Bourand, another rebel leader.
has done the same, and both have ex-
pressed their willingness to accept an
anicable settlement Of the question Of
who is to be president Of Haiti. Bobo
has declared himself a candidate for
election to the presidency by the con-
eress.
Emphasis was laid yesterday in official
quarters here on the fact that the Unit
ed States authorities in Haiti are now
on the best of terms with the Haitians
themselves, and that 1t is hoped an un-
derstanding will be reached which will
be to the permanent good interest Of
Haiti and its people.
Admiral Caperton reported today that
Sunday was without any disturbing event
in any part of the country. SO far as
he was advised. He has placed navy
paymasters in charge of the customs
houses at Cape Haitien and at Port au
Prince. This action was taken, il Is
stated, to insure the customs funds
reaching proper hands and to prevent
them from being appropriated by un
authorized persons.
U. s. to Control Money.
The United States will retain absolute
possession Of these and any other public
dues which the American authorities
may collect during their administration
of Haitian affairs. with the purpose Of
turning them over later to whatever
government is established with the CO.
operation of the Washington govern
ment
The public funds are being drawn
upon by Admiral Caperton to such ex-
tent as is necessary to carry on civil
administration. Tho American forces
are giving special attention to the sani-
tation OF Port au Prince and Cape Hay
ten. Both ports are notorious for their
lack Of proper sanitary works and i'm
provemcnts.
The Haitian gunboat Nord Alexis came
into Port au Prince yesterday with 7s6
Haitian soldiers on board. These SOL
diers came from the Cape Haitien dis
trict, where they We're disarmed by the
American authorities prior to their de-
parture on the. gunboat. On arrival at
the capital each soldier was given a
small sum of money by Admiral Caper-
ton. and ordered to proceed to HI home.
1t is now understood that ptever
arrangement the United StatesOehects
in Haiti for the purpose Of maintaining
peace and good government there. will
probably be brought about by working
through a Haitian government. The
first step of the American program will
be, therefore, the establishment Of
new government This will be under
taken as soon as Admiral Caperton is
satisfied that there is no more danger
of armed forces attempting to take
hand in the political situation.
