GLOVES IN BLACK AND WHITE
Shortage Of Dye Materials Certain to
Put the Colored Ones in tho
Background.

The shortage of dye materials will
make the colored, glove take step
down from favor. There will be de-
mand for black and for white gloves.
There will be a general advance in
the prices Of gloves for the spring, and
that will carry her through to the COM
ins season. The shipments from Aus
trja or Belgium will be negligible
There will probably be about the same
amount from England, and obviously,
the German output will be curtailed.
There may be an increase of Italian
gloves. and possibly French makers
will be able to fill orders. In France
there is only about so per cent of the
factory output now at hand. The
smaller makers are virtually closed.
AS for fabric gloves, there is an un-
certainty that it were we'll for you TO
consider. The best fabric gloves are
made from cotton that comes from
Egypt This supply is virtually un-
0btainable during the war. These cot
tons are used for the yarns that are
spun in Germany, and, of course, the
German question is unsettled. The
other country from which Germany
has in the past obtained materials
from which to spin yarns is England
That possibility is a closed point.
AS for the silk-glove question. the do
nestle output will perhaps come to the
rescue of womankind. II gloves must
be worn. the homemade article will
probably have to be the approved one.
This should stimulate things and give
Q variety to waiting hands. And II

TROUBLES WITH ENGINES
FROM VERY BEGINNING:

1t is admitted by the highest Of
iicials that there has been trouble with
the engines OF the North Dakota ever
since the vessel was put into com
mission. She was the first Of the bat
| tleships to be equipped with the Curtis
turbine, although the scout cruiser
Salem was equipped with that type in
1905.
The North Dakota was built By the
! Fore River Works at the time former
Rear Admiral Bowlcs, of the navy, was
president of the concern. That estab :
lishmcnt is now building the Dread
nought Nevada, and she is to have the
Curtis engines as her motive power.
The trouble with the North Dakota. it
appears, was known to the department
at the time IL was decided to have the
Nevada built by the Fore River Works
There have been conferences between
President Powell, who succeeded Rear
Admiral BowlcS as president of the
works, and as consequence 1t Is
stated to-day there will be many inn
provemcnts in the achincry of the
Nevada.
While officials are not willing to
speak in advance OF their action, some
OF them indicate that all tho new bat
tlcships should be equipped with the
best of modern kinds OF motive power
and especially with those which have
demonstrated by experience to be be-
yond question.
