ATL ANTi3 I SERVICE 1 FLEXIBLE CORSET IN VOGUE x '.. .. . Tilted -Appearance Taboo la Fronts of Jackets Kimono Sleeves to Be "the Tilings' In Outer Gar ments for 1914 Spring. CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 16. The Na tional Cloak, Suit and Skirt Manufac turers' Association, which closed its session last night, recommended that milady's figure should be brought out "au naturel" more pronouncedly than ever In the new styles. This will be effected by means of the latest evolved corset of flexible fabric and pliable stays. High-watsted front effects will be emphasized, produced by a cleverly ar ranged girdle or belt, or by seams so slanted as to give the desired natural polsto the figure. - The slit skirt will maintain its pre dominance. Coats, to accommodate in creaaed fullness and drapery about the hips, will be characterized by their flare. Graceful mantle rleeves, yoke effects and shirring will be prominent. The recommendation adopted by the easociation will be the keynote in Spring fashions of 1914. Garments will be constructed not to emphasize but rather to harmonize with the lines of the figure. The general outline of the costumes will embody a larger waist, continued narrow at the feet and draped at the hips. ; The long skirt continues in favor with peg tops, minarets, ruffles and bustle backs and the materials will be cotton crepes in plain and printed novelty weaves, cotton eponge and ratine In plain plaid and novelties. Plain and printed taffetas in chiffon qualities wHl be revived. Printed and plain canton crepes, crepe de china, satin and charmeuse will remain good. Fancy and novelty goods will predom inate in separate skirts. The tailored walking suit Jacket will be short, reaching to the curve of the hip line. The suit jacket will be fea tured by the cut of the bottom, a gradual slope -running from the front to the underarm seam. A fitted ap pearance is tabooed, the fronts of jackets hanging straight from the bust line. - The modified eton will be In vogue. The longer dressy Jacket will have a postillion effect In the back. Kimono sleeves will continue to be "the thing." TAFT'S FAITHJS SHAKEN Case of C. IV. Morse Casts Doubt on All Expert Examinations. POTTSTOWN. Pa., Nov. 16. Ex-President Taft, In a lecture here last night on "The President of the United States, "H'liat He Can and Cannot Do," referred to the pardon he granted Charles W. Morse, although he did not mention the name of the New York banker. Mr. Taft, after reviewing the pardon pow ers of the- President, said: "I had two cases once before me in which It was represented to me that ach convict was near death and I in-t-tituteel an investigation to find out the truth, through the Army Medical Corps. Kxamlnatlons were made, v.atLhes were established over the sick men and it was reported to me that the men were in the last stages of a fatal disease. One of them died soon after he was released from the peniten tiary. The other apparently Is in excel lent health and seeking to re-establish himself in the world in which he com mitted a penitentiary offense. This shakes one's faith in expert examina tions."

MURDERER NOT SO BAD Jessie Wilson's Fiance as He Re signs From Abandonment Bu reau, Notes That Easier Di '. vorce Is Xot -feeded. NEW YORK Nov. 16. (Special.) Francis B. Sayre,' the young Assistant District Attorney, who is to marry Miss Jessie Wilson, the President's daughter, on November 25, will resign his position under Mr. wnitman tomor row. Mr. Sayre has been in the office since September, 1912, and has dealt with abandonment cases, consequent ly he has formed opinions on marriage and divorce. He has been at the head of a practical clearing house for mat rimonial troubles for most or tne poorer residents of New York. In solving domestic troubles. ir. Sayre does not believe in more lenient laws or cheaper ways for obtaining divorce. "The present law," he said today, lays disproportionate emphasis' on the crime of murder. To my mind murder is not bv any means the worst crime there is. Generally speaking, the man who deceives and preys on unfor tunates of any sort is worse than a murderer. Some murderers Decent. "Some murderers I have met have been rather decent fellows. What I mean by saying they are decent is that they do not inspire one with the same feeling of loathing as do the men who are parasites, the men whd-really de serve the penalty prescribed for mur derers. The man who is making his living by preying on women is the worst man in the world. "Then there is the man who is carry ing on a petty form of swindling with the poor as his victims. One such man has recently been called to my attention and I finally succeeded in obtaining his conviction. This fellow was getting rich by taking money from hundreds of persons on the East Side under false pretenses. All he can get is one year in prison and a fine of $500 and yet the deliberation, with which he schemed his crimes makes him worse than a murderer. Labor Crimea Atrocious. "Then there are' the labor Crimea. I don't mean to say that labor union ism Is a bad thing, but some of the methods employed are atrocious. Bosses are often corrupt men, who practically deprive the man who earns their enmity of the right to earn his Uving. "Instances have come to my atten tion where men are hounded by the labor union bosses until they were in despair. In one case I know of a man who committed suicide."

INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN SlETCAIiF Florence Investigator Has Confer ence With. Governor. SALEM, Or, Nov. 16. (Special.) Captain Harry K. Metcalf. of the Sixth Artillery, in response to a summons from the Governor for a conference re garding his mission to Florence, passed the day at Salem. The Governor said they simply talked over the situation as reported, and it was agreed the Cap tain should take a member of his com pany with him to assist In. the investi gation. The State Guard, official went to Eugene tonight and will start by stage early tomorrow morning for Florence. "I do not expect a report from Cap tain Metcalf until the latter part of the week," said the Governor. "He prob ably will reach Florence Tuesday noon, but it will take some time for him to obtain the information desired." The Governor said that he had re ceived no definite information except ing that contained in news dispatches regarding the alleged deportation at Florence of Industrial Workers, and that probably he would receive none until Captain Metcalf reported. Governor West said he was of the opinion still that. If Conditions are as reported it would be his duty -to declare martial law.

WOODROW WILSON, MRS. WILSON BELOW, MISS ANGELINA THAYER PRINCE IS DISSECTED Wishes of Great Japanese Statesman Carried Out. BRAIN LIKE THAT OF KANT Death Shown to Have Resulted From Cancer, Which, Originating in Stomach, Spread to. Xilver. Princess ! Brave. TOKIO, Friday, Oct.' 24. The brain of the late Prince Kataura, one of Japan's greatest statesmen, who died October 10, weighed slightly more than 1600 grammes. Prince Katsura was president of the Japanese Society De voted to the Study of Cancer, from which disease he died, and in accord ance with hia own directions the body was offered to science and dissected. This brain weight is said to be nearly the same as that of Kent, the philosopher, and heavier than that 'of Napoleon III and Gambetta. It was a little lighter than that of Bismarck and about 300 grammes heavier than the brain ofan average person. HItorlo Ceremony Observed. The post-mortem examination was conducted under historic Japanese cer emony. When all preparations had been completed, Dr. Nagayo, a celebrated surgeon, surrounded by several physi cians addressed the spirit 'of the de parted Prince, saying that In accord ance with the dead man's own wishes he was about to dissect certain parts of the body for the benefit of science. After the operation the surgeon again addressed the spirit of the dead statesman, speaking of the completion of the task and expressing gratitude for the benefit which science would derive. Princess Katsura then approached the body, uttered a brief prayer to her husband's spirit, and. murmured that in accordance with his wishes she had requested the dissection in the in terest of science. Existence of Cancer Proved. , The examination proved that the Prince was suffering from cancer, which originated in the stomach and spread to the liver. The fact that Prince Katsura had desired dissectlfeq was made public by the Princess, who in sisted that the examination should be made. Her fortitude has created a profound impression throughout the empire. President 'Wilson took occasion to manifest the sympathy of America to the family of Prince Katsura and to the people of Japan by sending a beauJ tirui wreath through George w. Guthrie, the American ambassador. The wreath was conspicuously placed beside that offered- by the empress dowager of Japan. THREE AVIATORS FALL ADOLPH SL'TRO AND PASSHNGER BIVE 40 FEET INTO. BAT.
