London Reports Indicate
Jones Act Stirs Hostile
Feeling.
DESERTIONS FEARED
John Bull Dislikes Challenge
Of Tme-Honored Right
To Rule Waves.
by FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

Copyright. 1870, By Public Ledger Coz
The new United States shipping
act CJoRes Iaw) contains provisions
which, if enforced. will do more to
disturb British-Amercan relations
than any law now on the American
statute books"
Such is the disquieting message
which reached Washington from
England this week. 1t comes from
an authoritative American quarter.
The many-thorned issue at stake
will not be made easier of solution
by the latest development of Amer
lean shipping policy-namly. a vir-
tuaI alliance between the merchant
marines of the United States and
Germany to capture the shipping of
tho world.
The bitterness Of the British is
concentrated for the most part on
one or two clauses of the Jones act
Foreign laws that affect British
shipping strike home as vitality as
anything that affects the British
navy. That will explain to Ameri-
cans the vital interest of the British
in the measures TO which Uncle Sam
is resorting to challenge Britannia's
long supremacy as ruler of the
waves

COUP0F FOES
F0ILSW0MEN
AT LAST DITCH
Suffrage Ratification Pre-
vented by Absence Of
Tennessee Ants.
INJUNCTION IS ASKED
Troubles Increased When
Writ to Prevent Certify
ing Act Is Sought.
CBy Uniyersnl Service.)

Nashville, Aug. 21.-Nothing but
trouble, it begins to appear, runs in
the trail of triumph so lately fiaunt-
ed through this smouldering city by
the suffrage party and supporters.
The last worrisome lot OF it came
at 1890 today when, prevented by
the absence of a qUerum from TAX
ing any action affecting the motion
to reconsider the ratification Of the
suffrage amendment, the house of
the Tennessee legislature adjourned
until Monday afternoon.
Unanimous Vote Invalid.
Adjournment followed a grim rul-
ing by Speaker Walker that a unan-
imous vote of fifty members to pro-
ceed upon the motion was invalid.
Speaker Walker, who changed his
mo" to AYE" when the amendment
was voted upon, allowed control of
the motion to slip through his
fingers during the two days follow
ing action of the legislature.
Meanwhile Chancellor James B.
Newman has issued a writ of in
junction temporarily restraining
Gov. Roberts. Secretary OF State
Stevens and the speakers of the
Tennessee senate and house from
certifying to Secretary of State
Colby to Tennesee's ratification to
the amendment
Legislators Leave State.
According to Senator Lon McFar-
land, thirty seven members of the
legislature went to Alabama last
night, where they are not under
control of Tennessee's laws, pur-
posely to break the deadlock. -Four
others, it is reported left this morn
ing. When the roll was called only
fifty-nfife members answered: under
the law sixty-six members are nee
essary for a quorum.
Speaker Walker declared a recess
of an hour and ordered the sergeant
at arms to round up and arrest ab-
sentees.
I"O suffrage men came despite
serious illness in their families. The
atmosphere is becoming electrical
among members of the National
Woman's party. Anything but a
soothing effect resulted from a mes
sage Miss Alice Paul wired from
Washington late this afternoon n
which she stated that she had re-
ceived word from the attorney gen.
eral of Missouri saying that spccill
legislation would be necessary by
the Missouri legislature before wom-
en- of that State can vote.

Continuance of the speculation and
profteering which has sent the price
of bunker coal to unhesrd Of levels
may force the government to COM
mandeer the supply urgently needed
by the Shipping Board. The situa-
tion faced by the Shipping Board in
the matter of bunker coal is regard
cd as intolerable by Admiral w. S
Benson, chairman of the board.
Asked sIe Per Ton.
The Emergency Fleet Corpora tion
uses approximately 100000 tons OF
bituminous coal monthly. and the
latest prices quoted government
shipping agents at Atlantic ports
are said to range from SIS TO $l9 per
ton fer coal which should cost at
tidewater little more than s6 or 81.
based upon the mine price OF 81 per
ton.
1t is known that the Department
of Justice has been consulted by
shipping board officials. It also is
understood that the sdvisability Of
asking the Interstate Commerce
Commission TO order railroads to al
lot the Shipping Board cars for the
movement of bunker coal is under
consideration.
Would Mean Huge saving.
With cars available, the board
would be enabled to get coal at the
mines at 81 per ton and put down
at tidewater a reasonable price. But
the commission has no authority 10
concern itself with the price situa-
tioD,~and the chance for car auot-
ments is slim.
The possibility that Admiral Ben

Handmade INDY
Sheer Garments, Tucked and
Embroidered, Are Costly.
Factory Work. When Hundreds Are
Cut at One Time, Results In
Great Saving.

II 1t Is handmade affair of sheer
pink linen. with few tiny tucks and
perhaps simple edge of hand Gro.
chet you pay good price for 1t be.
cause one person has made it-by
hand. If II is an elaborate affair
OF pink batiste or voile trimmed with
lace insertion and edgng and made
by machine, perhaps dozen people
nave worked on lt-yet you pay con-
siderably less for it. That seems
queer, does 1t not? But the distinc-
ton of the linen chemIse lies in its
handmade quality and in it's material
fine, soft linen which is bit of a
luxury but the smartest fabric now for
lingerie garments.
Have you ever been in one of the
factories where machine made under
garments are turned out? Big, bright
and - nowadays - beautifully clean
places are these factories, and despite
the hundreds of people at work and
the whir of the busy machines, there
is wonderful order. Your pink
batiste and lace chemise was first
fashioned by special worker. She
produced ii on a special machine from
sketch made by high-salaried de-
sisncr. The garment thus produced
was called a sample. 1t went into a
glass case where it was displayed to
buyers who came to select models for
the seasons business. Before the
sample went to the glass case a work
ing pattern was made from it.
This working pattern was a chemise
cut out of heavy paper and on the
paper was sketched the pattern of the
lace trimming, with carefully written
memorandum of the number of yards
of lace required.
The working pattern, or dummy, as
1t is called, then went to the factory,
In room 200 feet long and half as
many feet wide the material for the
chcmise is piled in layers and layers,
and sometimes Il hundred or more
chemiSeS are cut out at one time with
an electric cutter. In another room
the yards of lace for the trimming are
being cut. Along go the material and
trimmings to another department with
the dummy sample, and the pink
chemise moves along from machine to
machine, where busy girls do various
kinds of work; Hemming, telling
seams, hemstitching, joining lace. ruff
fling, and even sewing on buttons. The
final process is the pressing and then
the pink chemise Is ready to go on its
journey to you. Yet all its peregrina-
tions from designer to cutter, to stitch
Ing machines. to pressing room have
taken less time than 1t took one work
er to make the pink linen chemise by
hand!
