Here's the long and short of 1T!
And the 1T is whether Miss and
Mrs. Indianapolis can step higher
and with more propriety in the
new long dresses or in the old
short dresses.
The war between the "longs"
and the shorts" is on, so take
your pick in the top photos with
Miss Ann Wright, 1888 North Me-
ridian street, on the left, and Miss
Elizabeth Tucker, 1904 North
Pennsylvania street, on the right.
Miss Wright's dress hangs six
inches below the knee while Miss
fuckers daintily bisects the knee
cap.
III the lower oval, left to right,
is a comparative view of the
dresses worn by Miss Tucker and
Miss Wright, seated.
Although many society and club
women of the city favor the long
dresses, officials of the Indianapo-
lis unit of the Y. w. c. A. recently
deplored the fashion as "un-
healthful."

NEW YORK, Oct. 28.-Billions of
dollars in values went overheard to-
day as the stock market plunged
downward-headed by the earlier
leader, United States Steel.
Banking support, which came in
to protect the market in the dip
downward lunge last week, was un-
able to prevent today's break which
accompanied frenzied trading.
Tickers were an hour behind as
the sales piled upon the floor. The
trading was of great volume, al
though not so great as that of the
same hours last Thursday, when
sales almost reached 100000
shares.
There were declines all along the
line. The mainstays of the stock
market-stocks which the wealthier
class had been trading in--were
smashed downward in record
breaks. Ten, fifteen and twenty
point reductions-which meant bill
lion of dollars loss in trading
values-were recorded in a brief
period.
The break began mildly, but
gathered momentum with a sweep
ing vigor. Stock after stock broke
through resistance levels and the
leaders sank under the lows reached
last Thursday.
General Electric bore the brunt
Of selling in the morning. Along
with 1t on the down side were such

above its previous low on the re-

noon when the stock was brought
down to 1913 with a sudden burst of
selling.
That was the last straw for many
who had been holding on patiently
awaiting action from the huge

They threw holdings down for what

to rid the government of elements which

NOGALES, Ariz, April 8.-Mexican

admittedly was in retaliation for an
order by United States immigration au-

fore Americans have been admitted
into Mexican territory merely by identi-

United States.
The first pinch of the rebel order
was felt by newspaper men covering
the revolution at this point Their usual
credentials were refused last evening
and they were asked to present pass
ports.
Described here as more pointed was
the denial OF entry to all United States

tors. This was acknowledged to be q
direct reply to the American ban
