LONDON SHOCKED
BY HAREM SKIRT
EXGLISHTVOMEX CONDEMN LAT

Wearer of First Eastern - Garment
Craze in British Metropolis
Greeted by Jeers. , .
LONDON, Feb. (Special.) The
question of the harem skirt at present Is
a paramount one In tho mind of English
women, and the attempt to introduce
the latest whim of Dame Fashion In
England has provoked an unprece
dented outcry. The English women
bave forgotten politics for the moment
and suffragettes and anti-suffragettes
have rall'ed and condemned the new
skirt.
Mrs. C. F. Humphreys calls It "an
atrocity which, with its suggestion of
the harem, conveys ideas of tho East
ern notions of womanhood that are
far from pleasant to connection with
English . women."
Friday saw the first appearance of
tLe trouser skirt on the streets "of
London. During the busiest time in
the afternoon passersby In tho Strand
were startled at the sight of a woman
attired in a dark purple velvet cos
tume with a tight-fitting coat,-a large
hat and skirt resembling the hobble,
where the back and front hems were
strapped together between the feet.
Men laughed, and women looked on in
blank astonishment, while the bus
drivers cracked Jokes till the wearer
was forced to make a hasty retreat In

CAVALIERI GETS MONEY
Rumor Heard In New York Case
Against Cavallerl 19 Dropped.
NEW TORK. Feb. 19. (Special.) It
was given out today by friends of Lina
Cavalierl, who are conversant with her
domestic difficulties, that the singer has
at last succeeded In obtaining a finan
cial settlement from her husband, Rob
ert Winthrop Chanler, and that all court
proceedings have been dropped.
If anything further is done in this
case It will be simply a suit to obtain
separation. Oreste Cavalierl, brother of
the prima donna, visited New Tork for
the second time about four weeks ago
and It was understood that he was au
thorised to conclude the entire matter In
a financial sense.
Who opened the negotiations by which
th settlement Is brought could not be
learned tonight. The singer's brother
has returned to Franco and no one could
be found who knew of the terms. It was
admitted by her friends, however, that
she had tired of her position and that
in all probability she had relinquished
her marriage contract on surprisingly
small terms.

February 18 Discovery at 8and
Point. Idaho, of girl resembling
Dorothy Arnold.
NEW TORK, Feb. 19. Witi th posl
tive overturning today of th belief
that a young woman found yesterday
at Sand Point, Idaho, might be Miss
Dorothy Arnold, the last tangible clew
in the case ot the missing heiress has
vanished, and th mystery of her dis
appearance Is as deep as on ths day
of Its occurrence.
Messages were received by Francis
B. Arnold, her father, today saying
the young woman at Eand Point had
been positively identified as that of
Dora Fallc, a former Inmate of a,' Sal
vation Army Rescue Home.
Mr. Arnold believes Dorothy is dead.
Be said so today with more posltiv
ness than heretofore.
Arnold Sees Whitman.
Mr. Arnold had a conference today
with District Attorney Whitman, but
he declined to tell what was said at
the meeting. Be declined to discuss
reports that he had obtained clews
that his daughter had met death by
criminal means; he merely expressed
th impasslonate belief that she was
no longer in the land of the living.
The police made no move today in
the Investigation.
The Arnold family does not think j
th girl under surveillance at Sand
Point, Idano, is Dorothy.
"I have received a private telegram
similar to the press dispatches from
Idaho," said Mr. Arnold, "but taie no !
stock in that clew. We have received
dozens of such dispatches since Dor
othy disappeared."
Arnolds Are Resigned.
Th attitude of members of ths Ar
nold family is that of quiet resigna
tion. The head of the nous believes
Dorothy is dead; has ha Information
to support or confirm this belief which
he is withholding from ths publiof
This theory gains ground her all th ;
time.
The belief that Dorothy died In a
local hospital and . that her relatives
know of the circumstances, but are
keeping silent to prevent a scandal, '
is held by many persons.
If Dorothy Arnold's father believe ,
she Is dead. George 8. Griscom. Jr.,
who plays the role of admirer of th j
girl In this mystery drama of real life, j
professes to believe sh is alive and j
has announced that he will ask her j
to marry him when she la found, which j
be thinks she will be. It has been '
rumored more than one that he knows j
where she la now and that h has ,
communicated with her since she
dropped from sight during a Christ-!
mas shopping expedition.
Griscom Xovr Silent.
Since he first leaped into the case,
however, and brought an avalanche of 1
newspaper reporters down upon him,'
as well as the displeasure of the Ar-'
nold household, he has tightened his,
lips. He now evades the reporters.
It Is not beyond the pale of prob
ability that the young woman located
in Flower Hospital February 14 is
Dorothy Arnold, although those who
are supposed to have visited her there
have entered vigorous denials since.
She may not be there now; she may;
