ADELPHI COLLEGE
PLANNING TO MOVE
New Site Opposite Botanic
Gardens Is Offered at
Low Price.

Announcement that new site is to
be acquired for Adelphi College. Brook
lyn. which will continue to be strictly
an Institution for young women, was
made yesterday at a luncheon of trus-
tee1 and others Interested, at the Down.
town Club. Frank D. Blodgett, presi-
dent, outlined plans for the new institu-
ton, which will greatly increase its
scope. The site selected, on Washing
ton avenue, opposite the Brooklyn Bo-
tanic Garden. has been offered for
$4,000. ..
DIR. Frederick w. Atkinson, setting
forth the new plans for Adelphi, said
while there should be in Brooklyn a
college of liberal arts. yet believe that
there is even greater necessity for de-
velcping richly college for young
women. the courses of which will be
largely to the higher vocational char
acter.
May I express the hope also that
when the college is moved to a new site,
there will be no attempt to make pro-
vision for young men. II would be far
efficient institution for training young
women"
Previous to 1912 Adelphi College had
beenf coeducatlonal. 1t was stated that
the price at which the new site had been
made available was about one-half its
real value. The plans for the new build
ing have been prepared by McKim, Mead
d White.
President Blodgett reviewed the
growth of the institution and said that
Brooklyn needs more college facilities
in view of the proportionately higher at
tendance at high schools in that bor-
ough than in Manhattan. Adelphi has
about 300 students and 200 more at
tend the summer session. DIR. Blod-
gett said that with a proper location and
additional buildings It would be possible
in ten years to raise the attendance to
5000. The college has an endowment
OF 100000 and is self-supporting.
The site offered is owned by Frederic
3. Pratt. The luncheon was given by
James II. Post.

SILK situation Favor. Sellers.

Reports OF recent activities in the silk
goods market indicate that the situation
now Is very much in favor of the whole
salers. with buyers generally paying
whatever prices are quoted in order to
secure merchandise.
Manufacturers assert that they never
have seen orders so numerous as they
have been during the last two or three
weeks. and 1t is freely pointed out that
almost all the mills are booked beyond
their capacity on some weaves and that
any orders taken in the future will have to
be subject to delivery. as nothing can be
guaranteed.
The present situation Is altogether
different from that whichc prevailed in
the past, when buyers usually found
available at any time during n similar
period all tho fall and winter silks they
required.

Uncertainty over SILK Crop.

Considerable uncertainty Is said to ex-
list in the raw silk market here because
Of the lack OF any definite information

about six weeks. About the only thing
importers have been able to ascertain is
that the crop probably will be about
normal but whether it will go up or
down. as compared with the last year,

Prices of Silk Waists
Are Now Soaring Fast

w THoLBsALB buyers Of wom-
w ems wear are much con-
cerned over the upward trend
in prices for silk waists. On the
other hand, manufacturers say that
the limit has not been reached in this
