HOMEMADE DEESSES.

IMPORTANT FACTS TO NOTE IN FINISHING A BASQUE.

Careful Pressing of Seams Helps to Secure a Perfect Fit—How to Slake Draped Collars, Lapels and the Fashionable Gigot and Puff Sleeves.

[Copyright, 1895, by American Press Association.] When the model lining has been basted, try it on and leave the seams on the outside. With pins take in all the seams until they fit the figure perfectly and then iron the seams (lat, with the pins still in, which will mark the seams for futuro use. After this trim off the superfluous stuff and cut a pattern from muslin or paper for future use, as it will save much time. The lining should then be pluccd on the material, the front coming even with the two selvage edges. The side pieces and backs can all be cut out of one width by a little careful management if there is no up and down to the stuff. If there Is, it will require more goods. The lining and outside are now to be basted firmly together, each piece separately, after which the whole bodice may be basted again to bo tried on, this time right sido out, and all the seams trimmed neatly. If the waist fits—and it will if properly basted—it can be seamed up. The seams should bo taken on the outside of the bastings, as they are elastic, being loose, and therefore they stretch.

The seams should be pressed apart and the bones sewed in. Each has her own preference aboi* the sowing In of bones. They can tie bought now ready preparod, and all that is accessary is to sow tho edges of the tapo to tho pressed seams. The finishing of tho waist is now so widely different in different cases that only a general idea can be given. Basque waists arc faced up and pressed, and whatever styles or kind of trimming there is may be set on afterward. Few dresses now, except tailor gowns, and they not always, havo buttons. They close invisibly by hooks and eyes. Lapels are just now favorite trimming on waists. They are acute triangles in form, lined with stiff wigan and faced with some kind of silk. Tho outside may bo of tho dress material or of velvet, moire, or, in fact, any suitable material. The great object is to havo them stiff. Some dressmakers wire tho edges. Every seam should bo pressed with a hot iron, except silk and velvet.

The collar and tho stylo of closing the front differ so greatly, that no sot rule can bo given for them all. Tho ono thing to

LIN IMG

G!OOT

Sl'.EIiVE WI TH TIGHT LINING,

remember is that accuracy is tho turning point between a clumsy and a perfect gown. The draped collar is the favorite at present and is made by having a stiff lining and silken facing, with whatever is used for the outside crushed or shirred over the outside. A small rosette may finish the collar.

Where there is a full vest front effect desired, or a, drapery of any kind arranged on a waist, the lining should lie fitted and finished to boning first and the rest done after.

At the present moment the sleeve is the distinguishing point of the costume, and it is enormous. It requires 1 #ards of 54 inch goods to make a pair of gigot sleeves, and even then the corners often have- to be pieced, but that does not show in the folds. The lining to a gigot sleeve is exactly like that to a loose coat sleeve. The outside is to be gathered around the top until it is reduccd to the size of tho lining, and then the edges are overcast at the top and tho rest pasted as usual, and the seam taken up, and the wrist faced and pressed. The diagram given hero shows an ordinary gigot sleeve. From shoulder to wrist in tho highest part it measures 89 inches and in width 8S. If it has to be pieced, the proper place to piece it is tho underarm part marked with a lino of marks. If a mousquetairo is desired, t,he shape of the upper part is tho same, but tho lower is cut two inches wider and six longer, and these gathered and tacked along bring heavy wrinkles all the way down. If the gigot sleeve has tho upper portion extending up ton inches from tho OO marks and laid in a fiat plaiting, either knife or double box, covering the shoulder seam and reaching to the collar, while the rest of tho sleeve is sewed in tho usual style, it will be quite the newest tiling. This is very dressy with tho blouse waists now so fashionable and gives tho Garibaldi effect..

Balloon puffs are much liked for homo wear, and they are made by gathering a full piece of material to a coat sleeve lining, which has the lower portion made of the same or a contrasting color. The variat ion in sleeves, however, are all based upon the coat sleeve foundation and are so largely a matterof personal taste that it is not necessary to enlarge upon them. A few general remarks may bo made, however. The sleeves for dress occasions may be of a number of tulle or chiffon rulllcs over a foundation in coat form. Tho light silks are made in puffs four times the length of the upper arm and four times the width of the sleeve lining. All this fullness is then draped up in rich folds, enough to bring it. into partially reasonable dimensions. It requires nine yards of 21 inch silk

for

these puffs and one yard

for the forearm pieces.

The liule For Salted Almonds.

The thrifty woman can prepare her own salted almonds according to this rule: Shell, blanch and dry half a pound of almonds Lay them in a clean tin pan, with a couple of teaspoons of butter, and put them in a rather hot oven. Shake tho pan frequently, that the almonds may color equally. When of a uniform light brown, take them out, drain them in a colander on brown paper and sprinkle them lightly with salt.

On ono point in current fashions there is 110 doubt—that toques are taking the place &f bonnets and hats to a crcat extent.

MESSAGETOCONGRESS

President Cleveland's Views of the Financial Question

A CALL FOR AN ISSUE OF BONDS.

Cnrrcncy otes to the Amount of SjOO,000,000 Should Be Converted Into Bonds and Canceled—A £.ong Bond at Three

Per Cent Is the President's Suggestion. Available to National Banks as Security. WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—The president yesterday sent to congress the following special message on the financial question: To the Senate and House of Representatives

In my last annual message I commended to tho serious consideration of the congress the condition of our national finances, and in connection with tho subjects indorsed the plan of currency legislation which at that time seemed to furnish protection against impending danger. This plan lias not been approved by the congress. In the meantime the situation has so changed and the emergency now appears so threatening that I deem it my duty to ask at the hands of the legislative branch of the government such prompt and effective action as will restore confidence in our financial soundness and avert business disaster and universal distress among our people.

Whatever may be the merits of the plan outlined in my annual message as a remedy for ills then existing and as a safeguard against the depletion of the gold reserve then in the treasury, I am now convinced that its rejection by the congress and our present advanced stage of financial perplexity necessitated additional or different legislation.

With natural resources unlimited iii variety and productive strength, and with a people whose activity and enterprise seek only a fair opportunity to achieve national success and greatness, our progress should not be checked by a false financial policy and a heedless disregard of sound monetary laws, nor should the timidity aud fear which they engender stand in the way of our prosperity.

It is hardly disputed that' this predicament confronts us today. Therefore, no one in any degree responsible for the making and execution of our laws should shirk patriotic duty in honestly and sincerely attempting to relieve^the situation. Manifestly this .effort will not succeed unless it is made untrammeled by the prejudice of partisanship and with a steadfast determination to resist the temptation to accomplish party advantages.

We may well remember that if we aro threatened with financial difficulties all our people in every station of life are concerned and surely those who suffer will not receive the promotion of party interests as an excuse for permitting oar present troubles to advance to a disastrous conclusion. It is also of the utmost importance that we approach the study of the problems presented as free as possible from the tyranny of preconceived opinions, to the end that in a common danger we may bo able to seek with unclosed vision as a safe and reasonable protection.

The real trouble which confronts us consists in a lack of confidence, widespread aud constantly increasing, in the continuing ability or disposition of the government to pay its obligations in gold. This lack of confidence grows to some extent out of the palpable and apparent embarrassment attending the efforts of the government under existing laws to procure gold, and to a greater extent out of tho impossibility of either keeping it in the treasury or canceling obligations, by its expenditure after it is obtained.

Tin? only way left open to the government for procuring gold is by the issue and sale of bonds. The only bonds that can be issued were authorized nearly 25 years ago anil are not well calculated to meet our present needs. Among other disadvantages they are made payabie in coin instead of specifically in gold which in existing conditions detracts largely and in ail increasing ratio from their desirability as investments. It is by no means certain that bonds of this description can much longer be disposed of at a price creditable to tile financial character of our government.

The most dangerous and irritating feature of the situation however remains to lie mentioned. It is found in the means by which the treasury is despoiled of the gold thus obtained without cancelling a single government obligation and solely for the benefit' of those who find profit in shipping it abroad or whoso fears induce thsm to hoard it at homo. We have outstanding about §500,000,000 of currency notes of the government for which gold may be demanded, and curiously enough the law requires that when presented anil in fact redeemed and paid in gold, they shall be reissued. These same notes may do duty many times in drawing gold from tho treasury, nor can the process be arrested as long as private parties who profit or otherwise see an advance in repeating the operation. Moro than S809,000,0(X) in these notes have already been redeemed in gold, and notwithstanding such redemption they aro still outstanding.

Since the 17th day of January, 1894, our bonded interest bearing debt has increased $100,000,000 for the purpose of obtaining gold to replenish our coin reserve. Two issues were made, amounting to $50,)iX),000 each—one in .January and the other in November. As a result of the first issue there was realized something more than $58,000,000 in gold. Between that issue and the succeeding one in November, com- I prising a period of about 10 months, nearly $108,000,000 iu gold was drawn from the I treasury. This made the second issue neeessary and upon that more than S5N.000,000 in gold was again realized. Between tho date of this second issue aud the pros- I cut time, covering a.period of only about two months, more than $I5U,000,000 in gold have been drawn from the treasury. These large sums of gold were expended without auy cancelation of government obligations or in any permanent way benefiting our people or improving our pecuniary situation.

Tho financial events of the past year suggests facts and conditions which should certainly arrest attention: More than $172,000,000 in gold have been drawn out of the treasury during the year for the purpose of shipments abroad or hoarding at home, while nearly §10:5,000,000 of this amount WJUS drawn out during the first 10 months of the year, a sum aggregating more than two-thirds of that amount, being about $(!),000,000, was drawn out during the following two months, thus indicating a marked acceleration of the depleting process with the lapse of time.

The obligations upon which this gold bus been drawn from tho treasury are still

•.

I and are available for use in repeating the exhaustive operation with shorter intervals as our perplexities acsumulato.

Conditions are certainly supervening tending to make the bonds which may be issued to replenish our gold less useful for that purpose. An adequate gold reserve Is in all circumstances absolutely essential to the upholding of our public credit and to the maintenance of our high national character.

The gold reserve has again reached such stage of dimunition as to require its speedy reinforcement. The aggravations that must inevitably follow present conditions and methods will certainly load to misfortune and loss, not only to our national credit at prosperity and financial enterprise, but to those of our people who seek employment as a means of livelihood and to those whose only capital is their daily labor. It will hardly do to say that a simple increase of revenue will cure our troubles with the apprehension now existing and constantly increasing as to our financial ability does not rest upon a calculation of our revenue. I The time has passed when the eyes of I Investors abroad and our people at home were fixed upon the revenues of the goveminent. Changed conditions have attracted their attention to the gold of the government. There need be no fear that we can not pay our current expenses with such money as we have. There is now in the treasury a comfortable surplus of more than §63,000,000, but it is not in gold, and therefore does not meet our difficulty.

I can not see that differences of opinion concerning the extent to which silver ought to be coined or used in our currency should interfere with the counsels of thoso whose duty it is to rectify evils now apparent in our financial situation. They have to consider the question of national credit anil the consequences that will follow from its collapse.

Whatever ideas may be insisted upon as to silver or bimetalism, a proper solution of the question now pressing upon us only requires a recognition of gold as well u-s silver and a concession of its importance, rightfully or wrongfully acquired, as a basis of national credit, a necessity in the honorable dis- I charge of our obligations payable in gold and a badge of solvency. 1 do not understand that tho real friends of silver desire a condition that might follow inaction or neglect to appreciate the meaning of the present exigency if it should res id in the entire banishment of gold from our financial and currency arrangements.

Besides the treasury notes, which certainly should bo paid iu gold, amounting to nearly $500,000,000, there will fall due in 190-1 §100,000,(MX) of bonds issued during the last year for which we have received gold, and in 1907 nearly $600,000,000 of 4 per cent bonds issued in 1S77. Shall the payment of these obligations in gold be repudiated

If they are to be paid in such a manner as the preservation of our national honor and national solvency demands we shoidd not destroy or even imperil our ability to supply ourselves with gold for this purpose.

While I am not unfriendly to silver, and while I desire to see it recognized to such an extent as is consistent with the financial safety and the preservation of national honor and credit, I am not willing to see gold entirely banished from our currency and finances. To avert such a consequence I believe thorough '.nil radical remedial legislation shoidd be promptly passed. I therefore beg the congress to give the subject immediate attention.

In my opinion the secretary of the treasury should be authorized to issue bonds of the government for the purpose of procuring and maintaining a sufficient gold reserve and the redemption ami cancellation of the United States legal lender notes and the treasury notes issued for the purpose of silver under the law of June 14, 1890. We should be relieved from the humiliating process of issuing bonds to procure gold to be immediately and repeatedly drawn out on these obligations for purposes not related to the benefit of our government or our people. The principal and interests of these bonds should be payable on their face in gold because they should be sold only for gold or its represent at ive and because there would now be ditlicuity in favorably disposing of bonds not coutaining this stipulation.

I suggest that the bonds be issued in denominations of $'20 and $50 and their multiples, ami that they bear interest at a fate not exceeding 3 per cent per annum. I do not see why they should not be payable 50 years from their date. We of the present-generation havo large amounts to pay if we meet our obligations, and long bonds are mosc saleable. The secretary of the treasury might well be permitted at his discretion to receive on the sale of bonds tho legal tender anil treasury notes to be retired, and, of course, when they are thus retired or redeemed in gold they should be canceled.

Those bonds under existing laws could bo deposited by national banks as security for circulation, and such banks should bo allowed to issue circulation up to the faoe value of these or

any

other bonds so de

posited except bonds outstanding bearing only 2 per cent interest and which sell in the market at less than par. National banks should not be allowed to take out circulating notes of a less denomination than 810, and when such as are now outstanding reach the treasury, except, for redemption aud retirement, they should be canceled and notes of tho denomination of $10 and upward issued in their stead. Silver certificates of the ilenomimotion of §10 and upward should bo replaced by certificates of denominations under §10.

As a constant means for the maintenance of a reasonable supply of gold in tho treasury our duties on imports should be paid in gold, allowing all other dues to the government to be paid in any other form of money.

I believe all the provisions I havo suggested should be embodied in our laws if wo are to enjoy a complete reinstatement of a sound financial condition. They need not interfere with any currency scheme provided for the increase of the circulating medium through the agency of national or state banks since thoy can easily be adjusted to such a scheme.

Objection has been made to the issuance of interest-bearing obligations for the purpose of

retiring

the mmiiiterest-bearing

legal tender notes. In point of fact, however, these notes have burdened us with a large lojul of interest and it is still accumulating. The aggregate interest on the original issue of bonds, the proceeds of which in gold constituted the reserve for the payment, of these notes amounted to $70,32(5,250 on Jan. 1, IN95, and the annual charge for interest on these bonds and thoso issued for the same purpose during tho last year will bo $9,145,000, dating from Jan. 1, 1895.

While the cancellation of these notes would not relieve us from tho obligations iilmuly iuouvred on their account., these figures are given by way of suggesting that tlioir existence has not been free from interest char

JOB and that the longer they

are outstanding, judging from the experi

ence of the last year, tho more expensive thoy will become. In conclusion I desire to frankly confess my reluctances to issuing more bonds in present circumstances and with no bettor results than have lately followed that course. I can not, however, refrain from adding to an assurance of my anxiety to co-operate with the present congress in any reasonable measure of relief, an expression of my determination to leave nothing undone which furnishes a hope lor improving the situation or checking a suspicion of our disinclination or disability to meet with the strictest honor every obligation.

SENATE AND MOUSE PROCEEDINGS.

I The Prssiddiit's Mestage the One Import-^ ant Feature in Both Branches.

"WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—The reading of President Cleveland's message on the financial situation formed the most interesting feature of yesterday's session of the senate. It was presented shortly after noon, and there was very promptly E filling up of empty chairs by senators, who were not on hand when the senate met. The president's views and recommendations were listened to with close attention, both by senators and by the occupants of the galleries, and when tho reading of the message was concluded it was sent to the finance committee.

Most of the day wius taken up by the house bill (with senate amendments) disapproving an agreement with the southern Ute Indians providing for their removal from Colorado to Utah, allowing lands in severalty to those desiring them md removing others from a portion of the present reservation and confining them to the western part of it and to several townships in New Mexico. The bill was passed.

The matter of locating these Indians has long been a vexatious one, difficult of settlement by the Indian committees of both houses. Yesterday's action bids fair to result in the final settlement of the question at an early date.

A bill was passed appropriating $100,000 to purchase sites for public buildings in Spokane, Cheyenne, Boise City and Helena. I

The bankruptcy bill was then taken up and made the unfinished business. TLo senate at 4:40 p. m., took up the consideration of executive business and later adjourned.

Miss Mamie Kniffen, right hip and knee dislocated. Miss Maud Bennett, permanently maimed, bade badly hurt.

Miss Alice Tontrup, right side injured. I Miss Ella Tontrup, bade severely strained.

Miss Inez Betliune, right side hurt. Saiu Heffren, right side and knee braised.

George Tontrup, right leg sprained. Leonard Kniffen, right arm and leg hurt.

Wann Teasdale, head badly braised.

RAISING PHEASANTS.

A Novo! Experiment Heing Tried by the State of Ohio. ST. MARY'S, O., Jan. 29.—The Ohio state and fish commission has gone into the pheasant raising business near here, and for that purpose lias leased three acres of ground idong the St. Mary's reservoir for a period of five years. Hundreds of dollars have already been expended in erecting coops and sheds suitable for hatching and breeding purposes.

Forty-three pheasants were placed in the coops last week, brought from Now Jersey at a cost, of $4 a head. The English necked pheasant of brilliant plumage is the species brought. So far this is the only state station in the United States. As soon as the pheasants get to be plentiful they will be turned loose in the fields and forests of the state. Looked For a Dime With a Lighted Match.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 29.—Fire yesterday, caused by the dropping of a match by Edward Brady among some cotton batting in a search for a lost dime, destroyed Tyler's hotel, corner of Grand and Eastern avenues, and Hogan Brothers' dry goods store underneath. No one was injured, though the hotel occupants had to hurry out of their rooms. Total loss, $80,000 insurance about the same.

It May He an Oeean disaster.

ATHENS, Jan. 29.—A bottle was found at Zanti yesterday containing a piece of paper dated Jan. 20 and inscribed: "We are sinking rapidly. Inform the German admiralty. German warship Stein."

Proceedings in the House."

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—The interest in the house centered in the president's message which was read after the body convened. There was a slight skirmish over its reference and that of the administration bill which Mr. Springer introduced, but both were referred to the committee on banking and currency, Mr. Wilson having waived jurisdiction of the bond feature of the message which could have gone to the ways and means committee. Members were busy I discussing the message and bill throughout the session and gave little attention to the debate on the bill to repeal the discriminative duty of the sugar imported from bounty-paying countries.

At the conclusion of the debate Mr. Wilson attempted to eifect an arrangement for a vote, after two hours of de- I bate, but Mr. Grosvenor (Rep., O.) objected. I

On motion of Mr. Thomas (Rep., Mich.) a bill was passed authorizing the I secretary of war to make a survey of Kalamazoo harbor, Michigan.

The house, at o'clock, adjourned.

ST. Louts, Jan. 29.—A "Bob sled" laden with young people collided with a northbound Broadway cable car at Bissell street. The sled had gained such terrific velocity as it sped down the hill from the new water tower that when its "bumper" struck the cable train it knocked the trailer from the track The force of tho contact tlirew the. sled under the car and dumped its terrified accupants. Fortunately the gripman succeeded in stopping the car after it had gone but a few feet further. It was simply miraculous that none of tho coasters were killed. As it was the following were injured:

STILL A MYSTERY.

A Mexlcan-Guntamalaa War as Yet decided Upon. CITY OF MEXICO, Jan. 29.—The preai* dent and cabinet were in secret session all day and until a late hour last night, but decline to divulge anything as to the nature of the conference. The only thing known positively is that nothing has yet been done officially as to formulating Mexico's answer to the last note from Guatemala.

It is reported that Minister of Finance Limantonr will leave at once for Guadalajara, the capital of the state of Jalisco. What the object of the trip is, is not known, unless it be to confer with the Btate government regarding finances, it having been popularly reported here that the different states had pledged financial aid to the general government in the event of necessity for wax.

The government arsenal here is still working day and night. Sunday afternoon's council of ministers was called t-o consider a private note from Romero, Mexican minister at Washington, regarding interference by the United States. In all circles the news created no little surprise, and considerable dissatisfaction.

Guatemala has, from the commencement of the present dispute, insisted on submitting the question to the arbitration of the United States. Mexico has maintained that the question, having been practically settled by the treaty of 1882, it is not of a character that should be submitted to arbitration.

It is the belief here that Guatemala caused an invasion of the territory which had formerly been in dispute, but which, it was agreed in the treaty of 1882, should be regarded as Mexican territory, pending the final surveyor of the boundary.

When Mexico protested against the procedure Guatemala cooly proposed that the matter be left to arbitration, and it is understood that the Guatemalan minister in Washington on fourf different occasions requested the United States government to offer its services as arbitration, and that on those four occasions the request was flatly refused.

A cabinet minister said: "The arbitration proposition is exceedingly inopportune. It would be interference in the interest of a nation which is endeavoring to elude compliance with the treaty obligations. It is assumed th -.t the statement in the Washington dispatches is correct, and that the Unite:! States government really intends offering its mediation, of course with tho consent of both the parties to the dispute. It remains to be seen what Mexico will do in the premises. The crisis has been reached, and if there is no outside interference there will be an

(Mid,

pacific or otherwise, put to the question in a verv short time."

1 lie United States Will Not I ntcrfrre.

W YSHINGTON, Jan. 29.—The United States has exhausted all proper means of preventing a hostile collision betweeu Mexico and Guatemala, and the two countries must settle their dispute without further restraint exercised by the United States.

Secretary Gresham's telegram to the Mexican government representing toy hope of the president that the matter might be settled by reference to some friendly nation lias met with a very flattering reply from the Mexican government, but in substance it holds that the difficulty with Guatemala is one that owing to the attitude of that country will not admit of arbitration. The inference is that Guatemala must either promptly submit to Mexico's ierms, of a surrender of her claims to lands in dispute on the- boundary, or fight.

In this state of the case nothing can be done by our government at present to avert a-clash, in case of actual hostilities it is recognized here that there can be but one outcome in view ot the vast numeral superiority and equipment Mexican army, and even if Guatemala should lie joined by other Central American countries in opposition to Mexico, it is believed that the end will still be the same.
