New Leathers and New Fabrics
Combined in All Varieties Of
Last Shapes for Early
Season Wear.

styles, both in high shoes and the
low cuts, The more extreme styles
range from the most severely plain
shoes. without even a tip or an ap-
parent seam, to the most elaborateiy

INCREASE OF $436,516 OVER 1914.

clusion, unquestionably in my mind.

suggestions to this committee for plac-

not now feel we have guns of sufficient
range or power. But there Is no occn-
sion to rush into that now, and to at
tempt to scatter fourteen or sixteen
inch guns all over our continent would
certainly result In our getting nowhere.
You would be accused Of having gone
of halfcocked and Of having rushed
into this thing, and I think that Is the
way to spell failure in almost any
thing.
In general discussion Of fortifca-
tions and ammunition Secretary Garri'
son said:

for a total Of 1901 guns and mortars
of calibers from 3-inch to 'l6-inch. In.

propriated for III guns and mortars.

BRYAN SENDS NOTE
TO JAPAN ON CHINA
Mystery Surrounds Present Ac.
tivity Of Eastern Bureau Of
the American Department

That the United States Govern.
ment forwarded overnight a note
to Japan bearing on the latter's
demands upon China, is hinted by
Administration supporters today.
Unusual activity has been mani
tested in the Far Eastern bureau
Of the State Department for sew
eral days, and it is known that a
long message was dispatched, with
more than the departments wonted
secrecy, presumably bearing on
the troublesome situation in the
Far East.
Secretary of State Bryan and
other officials have cloakeG the en-
tire situation with extreme mys-
tey. But despite this they have not
concealed the fact that they regard
seriously Japan's apparent efforts
to obtain a more dominant hand in
Chine. affairs, and perhaps to dis
regard the "open door" policy in
which the United States is vitality
interested.
Rejected In Part.
Japan's demands upon China are
aid to have been rejected in part but
he actual situation has not been made
lear. 1t Is said that twenty-one de-
mands were made whereas the for
Ign powers were notified of only
eleven.
The Chimes government has signi-
fed its willingness to make a public
declaration that China shall never cede
Q port, harbor. or island to another
power. but 1t has declined to pledge
itself to that effect to Japan.
The Peking government also has cx L.
