Action by the Independents in re-

Home DressmaI<ing Expected
10 Hammer Apparel Trade

The broad silk trade is inclined to
take pess mistic view of the dress
and waist industry's prospects for i
good business next spring and sum
mer. The impression prevails that
figh-priced labor in the ready-t to-wear
industry will prevent any great reduc-
ton in prices o. ready-made garments,
despite q lower basis for raw material.
The disparity between Or ces Of
dresses, waists and other articles of
apparel in the retail stores, in contrast
to silk prices, which are drifting to
low levels, IS expected to increase the
trend toward home dressmaking Some
silk concerns are proceeding cautiously
in selling goods TO the weaker mem.

this business at present is limited
mostly TO sample pieces.

Formation Of syndicate for the
Importation Of English made woolens
in anticipation OF high tariff on for
eign made cloths is rumored in the
market. and denied with about the
same frequency as it is affirmed
The possibility Of a taritf of about
90 per cent ad valorem on foreign
woolen goods is more Of possibility
than it was last year. The plan Of the
syndicate, according to rumors is to
import British woolens and hold them
IN bonded warehouses until a tariff
is imposed, then clear them under the
present tariff rates and so reap the
benefit. In case the tariff legislato on
falls Of enactment, the goods can be
recNported to England or other for
cign countries without the payment Of
duty and with a loss Of only the stor-
age charges for the period involved.

NEGR0 0ES IN DUMAS
 AFFAIR GIVE UP
THREE BLACKS INVOLVED IN ATTACK ON DEPUTY SHERIFF ARE IN JAIL.

Dumas, Jan. 26.-Two negroes in- volved in the forcible rescue of ne- gro prisoner from deputy sheriff near here last Wednesday, which threatened to arouse race trouble have surrendered and have been talk en to the county jail at Arkansas City. The negroes are Will Kibble and Man Kibbie. A third member of the family, Edmund Kibble, is said to be hiding near "Niggertown," negro settlement 10 miles east of here.
 The negroes surrendered to Clay Cross, white planter. The latter notified Sheriff Lacy, at Arkansas City and deputy took the negroes to Arkansas City yesterday.
 John Williams, another member of the ban, was captured Sunday. Will Hams is said to have taken Dock Hayes, the negro rescued from Deputy Sheriff J. H. Breedlove and three other blacks, Angie Sharp, Ida Kibble and Lloyd Kibble, across the Arkan- sas river in a boat following the trouble. Officers expect to capture these negroes soon.

For One Big Army

| As finally agreed upon the bill is virtually the same as reported by the subcommittee, but is radically diff ferent from the reorganization bill submitted by the War Department to Congress. In addition to establish ing compulsory military training the bill provides for the establishment of one army, to be divided into a citi- zen army, composed of men who have received the compulsory training, a standing army, consisting of 28O,OOo enlisted men and 18,000 officers, and a National Guard.
 Specific provision is made in the bill that the citizen army cannot be called to the colors except in case of , declaration of war. To accommo- date the reserve force built up under inc system of military training pro :; v;s;on is made in the bill for an an nual reduction of 5 per cent in the enlisted strength of the regular army and per cent in the number of offl- cers for the first five years. This will mean, Chairman Wadsworth sald' tbat at the end of five years the reg ulary army will be reduced by 7O;Ooo men and 1900 commissioned officers which will greatly decrease the cost of maintaining the military establish ment.

BOYS ARM MINGLED
 BY SHOT GUN

Leonard Pratt, aged 12 years, son of Adam Pratt, who resides three miles east of Lackland Springs, is at the Park Sanitarium here suffering from severe wound received when a single barrel shot gun was acci- dently discharged last Saturday af- ternoon, the load d shot striking the youth on the right hand partial ly tearing flesh and bone away for about ten inches up the arm. The nearest physician was called imme- diately after the accident and medi- cal attention was given the wounded boy hut the condition of the roads delayed the trip to the sanitarium for number of hours.
 The surgeons at the sanitarium operated on the boy yesterday morn ing, dressing the wound, and steril- izing it thoroughly so as to prevent blood poisioning and the latest re- port is that the most of the youths hand can be saved, it is believed, pro- vided blood poisoning does not de- velop, which is not likely, the phy- sicians state.
 It is said that young Pratt had just returned from a hunt near his
 
 home and had stood his gun against a fence over which he had just climb ed and when he leaned over to se- cure the gun, the boys dog leaped over the fence, striking the gun which caused it to be discharged and the boys hand was in the range of the shot, which struck the thumb and forefinger, tearing away the flesh

In the| tense imagination of the lookouts fioatj ing spars or other debris easily tooh the form of periscopes. Queer looking sailing vessels at a distance aroused suspicious that they might be submai rines in disguise. A phosphorescen9 trail in the water was sometimes mis5 taken for the wake of torpedo.
