Large Fall Hats FOR women.

Large hats for women will be in
vogue next fall. in. the opinion of a
millinery manufacturer. His contention
is based on the large number of orders
for trimmings for large hats being re-
ceived. The orders sent in by wire from
the coast for trimmings are unpre-
cedented. he said. A sudden demand
for burned goose feathers made out Of
peacock has sprung up. . Ostriches,
especially in fancy shadings, imitation
goura and paradise effects. are popular.
Interest in felt hats is still lacking. In
flowers, plush effects I'm poppies, leaf
effects and novelties are receiving con-
siderable attention. Silver and gold
promise TO be popular colors.

HENRY v. KING.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. May 11.-With the
arrival here this morning of Mrs.
Payne Whitney's Letterman there
came a dark horse for the $4,000
Derby. which will be run at NChurchill
Downs here on Saturday. The colt
caused a sensation by the way he
worked a mile and quarter this
afternoon.
Heralded as a sprinter he was con-
sidered to have little or no chance in
the classic, and men who lay the odds
quoted him at so to 1. But after his
trial this afternoon his price dropped
to 10 to 1. and a host Of horsemen
who saw him in action say he is
likely TO be keen contender for a
part of the purse.
He ran the Derby distance, carry
ing at least 100 pounds. in 2:07 20,
and he accomplished his task handily.
1t was a surprisingly good move. He
was fresh and strong at the finish.
The trial was too fast to suit Nose
Coldblatt. who is handling him for
Mrs. whitney. Before the colt arrived
there came a message to Goldblatt from
Scott Tarlans. Mrs. Whitney's regular
trainer, saying the colt was not work
horse and that a mile and a quarter
in 2:10 would be exceptionally good for
him

BUSINESS NOTES
AND TRADE NEWS
Continued Warm Weather Is
Boon. to Straw Hat Trade
Fur Orders Increase.

Sales of straw hats in retail stores
threatened yesterday to eclipse their
Wednesday volume. which was rather
large for this time. The summer
weather OF the last two days has Inn
PEELED many men to don straw hats
earlier this year. The bulk OF sales is or
hats ranging in value from $3.50 TO
$3.50. Buying of the more expensive
headwear is backward. The conserva-
tive straw hat is selling most actively. To
give an added impetus to the straw hat
business the Retail Clothiers and Fur
nishers Association of New York Is
urging it's members and their employees
to wear straw hats to-day.

Fur orders Increasing.

A steadily increasing volume of orders
Is being sent to fur manufacturers by
their statesmen on the road with the fall
lines The orders booked call for de-
liveries in June and July. and represent
preparations by retailers for regular
August sales. Although the major part
of the business received by statesmen
calls for Hudson and near seals and
seaIine, fur manufacturers note a grow
ing interest In raccoons. natural musk
rats and mole in sport models. The
vogue for using fur trimmings on dresses
has increased the demand for mink.
kolinsky and caracul. Those descrip-
tions are used also for trimmings on seal
coats.

Surprised His Trainer.

Goldblatt decided to let him run the
distance in 2:13 or 2:i5 The colt reached
the downs about o'clock this morn
ing and twelve hours later he was out
for his trial.
Let him rum" Goldblatt told the boy
Don't kick him or cluck to him but
give him all the reins he wants. He's
rot a work horse. so don't worry about
him moving along too slowly" He then
boosted the lad into the saddle. told
him to canter to the head OF the
stretch where the Derby will be started
and break him there. Letterman went
off like a shot but quickly steadied
down to nice even pace. He stepped
the first furlong in II 20 and the quarter
in lao
This was just about what Goldblatt
expected and he looked for the colt to
back up the remainder of the way.
But Letterman was full of run and he
went the half in a 2-5 and then without
any apparent exertion stepped the mile
In I 40
This was exceptionally good and a
surprise TO all the horsemen present.
But bigger surprise was still to come.
J1e went on another furlong easily and
covered the mile and furlong in
1868 As. During the next eighth he was
eased up a trifle and finished the Derby
route in 2:07 20.
