TREATY DRAFTS
DENIED TO LODGE
relations Committee Again
Sat on By Presi-
dent.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2.-President
wilson declined yesterday to give the
Senate foreign relations committee the
tentative draft of treaties with Aus
tria, Hungary, Turkey and Bulgaria as
requested by the committee on the
ground, "that 1t would tend to take the
function Of negotiating the treaty out
Of the hands of executives"
In a letter to Chairman Lodge Pres
tdent Wilson said that as the treaties
still we're in process of negotiation he
considered it "out OF the question" to
give the tentative drafts. Senator
Lodge wrote in reply that the commit
tee had asked only for such informa-
lion as would be compatible with the
public interest to give and added as
10 whether 1t was expedient to give
any information at all rested with Mr.
Wilson.
At the same time the President re-
fused the committees request for the
declaration of June 16 signed by the
United States and other powers to
cover military occupation of the Rhine.
IA certain degree of embarrass-
ment" would be caused President VIII
son wrote IL the declaration were made
public now"

STYLE TIPS FOR
FALL SHOPPERS
BY BETTY BROWN.

knowledge is power" Is nowhere
better demonstrated than with the
shopper. To go to the stores unin-
formed as to what one needs, what
one wishes, what one can afford, and
what is "good style" is waste OF bota
time and money.
The good shopper will KNOW what
she wants before seeking it.
So far as the matter Of what Is
good style this season" is concerned
here are some straight tips on the
opinions Of Paris and New York.
The gilet, or vest, maintains and
even increases its popularity. The
autumn styles in vests are strictly
tailored, and are made Of white wash
satin, or brilliant colored ribbons with
metallic threads. White broadcloth and
chamoisette is also good.
Paris Is wearing new silk nous
seine fabric colored and printed in
marvellous imitation Of leopard skin
and combined with yellow Chinese silk
crepe.
The autumn sports are rough home
spun stitched with many rows OF
coarse colOreQ Six.
For footwear Paris prefers gray, IN
shoes and stockings, while New York
chooses black. Paris wears high
shoe all Of patent leather except for
side pieces of elastic set in. Paris has
also calmly adopted the stockingless
mode-in which America will scarcely
agree,
Autumn hats are to be of hatters'
plush, panne velvet, and silk duvetyn.
The chin-chin sailor, with oval-topped
crown and regular brim trimmed with
rat-tail braid is promised great popu-
larity.
coque feathers are very good this
year, used on hats, in wide, at collars,
Paris still clings to the fur manteau
and cape. The capes are velvet lined
TO prevent slipping from the Shout
ders. Gray squirrel is as fashionable
as ever-very smart when made into a
manteau or scarf and lined with black
satin.
For young girls-the sub-debs of
school age the smartest costume for
autumn frocks are developed in gay
Scotch plaids, worn with black satin
sashes and with small friIled fuckers
and sleeve puffs Of fine white muslin.
The same plaids are used as Innings
for the heavy coats and manteaus OF
dull-hued wooden materials.

-"cHIGcERs" BAD THIS YEAR.

"Chiggers," or harvest mites, pests
so minute that they are not often seen
whose attacks cause intense itching
and rash often supposed to be hives
or nettle rash are bad this year, re-
ports DIR. w. A. Riley of the Min
nesOta College of Agriculture. On
the second or third day the mite-in-
fected area is surrounded by char
aeteristic water blister. On persons
with delicate skin the mites cause in
tensely severe irritation, and there
is also danger that the scratching
induced may cause secondary infec-
ton. Relief is best secured by bath
ing in warm salt water within few
hours after exposure. Cooling To-
tions, menthalatum, and carbolated
vaseline win afford some relief.
Flowers Of sulphur should be busted
into the stockings and underwear be-
fore invading the haunts of these
pests.

WOMEN DEMAND
WARSaSHALL END
Peace League Means More to
Them Than It Can Mean
TO Men.
DR.. sHAW's STIRRING PLEA.

(by the'Lats Or. Anna Howard shaw.)
Seven million one hundred thousand
men who had laid down their lives In
the great war. Think Of It'll Seven
million, one hundred thousand young
men had died on the field of battlel
What does that mean to the women
OF the worldl 1t means that seven
million one hundred thousand women
walked day by day with their faces
toward an open grave that they might
give life, to son. 1t means that
seven million one hundred thousand
little children lay In the arms Of q
mother whose love had made them
face even the terrors Of death that
they might become the mothers Of
men.
1t means that year after year these
women had put up their lives into the
lives Of their sons until they had rear
ed them to be men. For what? In
the hope that these sons Of theirs could
give to the world the things for which
women dream, the things for which
women hope and pray and long, These
were the things that the women had
In their hearts when they gave birth
to their sons. s
But who can estimate the value Of
seven million one hundred thousand
dead sons Of the women Of the world
Who can estimate the price which the
women have paid for this war; what
IL has cost them, not only In the death
, Of their sons, because that Is q phase
Gf our war to which we look.
The Courage Of Women.
> We hear our orators tell us Of the
courage Of our men. How they went
across the sea. Very few of them re-
meanber to tell us Of the courage Of
our women, who also went across the
sea; of the women who died nursing
the sick and wounded: the. women
who died in the hospitals, where the
terrible bombs came and drove them
almost to madness. They tell rs
nothing Of the forty thousand English
women who went to work back Of the
trenches In France.
They tell us nothing Of the thou
sands upon thousands upon thousands
Of women who not only toiled and
worked and shaved in order that the
war might be successful. but we de
not hear Of the thousands Of women,
not alone In Armenia, not alone In
Montenegro, not alone in Serbia, but
In Flanders. In Belgium, in Rurnania.

who lie In graves today, murdered.

increase in value of 2.6 per cent.
The average selling value of the ore
per gross ton at the mines for the
whole United States in 1918 ; was
$3.50, compared with $3.15 in 1917.
The stocks of iron ore at the mines,
mainly in Michigan and Minnesota,
amounted at the close of 1918 to
8,471, 507 gross tons, compared with
IL ,003,843 tons in 1917, a decrease
of about % per cent.
Iron Ore Mined by States.
Iron ore was mined from 458 mines
in 26 states in 1918, compared with
452 mines in % states in 1917. OF
these states, California, Idaho, Mon
tana, Nevada, Utah, and Washington
produced iron ores chiefly for metal
lurgic flux and small part Of the
production in Colorado and Michigan
was used for fux. One mine in Vir-
ginia reported a small quantity if iron
ore used in the manufacture of hydro
gen gas. The other iron ore mined
was used mainly in blast furnaces,
except small quantities from Georgia,
Michigan, New York, and Wisconsin
used for paint. The rank of the
three States producing the largest
quantity of iron ore-Minnesota,
Michigan, Alabama-remained un-
changed in 1918. Minnesota pro-
duced more iron ore in 1918 than all
the rest of the States together, furn-
ishing a little more than 60 per cent
of the total for the United States.
Lake Superior Iron Ore Ranges.
All the ranges in the Lake Superior
district mined less iron ore in 1918
than in 1917, the smallest decrease,
0.6 per cent, having been in the CO.
gebic range and the largest, 1875 per
cent, in the Vermilion range. The
Mesabi range produced 65 per cent
of the entire output of the Lake Su-
perior district and Sc per cent Of the
total output of the United States.
Iron Mining by Districts.
The Lake Superior Districts, COM
prising all the mines in Minnesota
and Michigan and those in northern
Wisconsin, mined nearly Sc per cent
of the total ore produced in 1918,
and the Birmingham, Ala, district
little more than 7 per cent. Every
district except the Chattanooga
showed decrease in 1918.
Iron-Ore Industry of Cuba.
The iron ore shipped from Cuba to
the United States in 1918 amounted
to 643,532 gross tons, valued at$2,-
096,761, compared with 553,485 tons,
valued at $2,793,113, an increase in
quantity of 90,047 tons, or 16 per
cent, but a decrease in value of
$696,352, or rs per cent. The av-
erage selling price of the ore was
1926 ton in 1913, compared with
$5.05 ton in 1917. The shipments
in 1918 consisted of Ga per cent of
hematite, including little magnetic,
from the Daiquiri, Juragua and
Cuero mines, on the southern coast,
and So per cent of brown ore from
the Mayari mines, near the northern
coast. The total stock of ore re-
