Thedesigner for the wholesale clothing manufacurer learns as promptly as the Fifth Ave. tailor styles for the future. No tailor can buy any better cloth than is bought by the clothing manufacturer, and it stands to reason the manufacturer can buy at lower prices. Now in regard to workmanship; the best journeyman tailors are engaged by the year by the clothing manufacturers. This finishes the discussion on style, cloth, cost and make; now comes the test the fit, to settle this, see our suits; try 'em, wear 'em.

Mr. C. B. Orcutt, president of the shipbuilding company, accompanied the party. A large number of senators, members of the House and others, Including Senator Francis M. Cockrell, of Missouri, and his daughter. Miss Marlon Cockrell, who is to act as sponser at the launching, sailed for Newport News to-night and will arrive there early In the morning. The Missouri is a sister ship of the Ohio and the Maine. Her contract price was $? 8S3,0u0. Her keel was laid Feb. 7, 1900, and in the latest construction report she is set down as 51 per cent, completed. The Missouri's contract speed Is eighteen knots an hour, so that she will rank next to the battleships of the Georgia class in regard to speed. Her complement will be forty officers and 511 men. The hull is built of steel and is unsheathed. It is 2SS feet long on the load water line, seventy-two feet A 1 i 1 r - f vife 3 W a'S w r v TH TyATU SENATOR two and one-half inches extreme breadth, and at a mean draught of twenty-three feet six inches displaces tons. The hull is protected abreast of the boilers and engines by a side armor belt of from seven and one-half to eleven inches in thickness and by the casemate armor, six inches thick. In the casement are placed ten of the six-inch guns the vessel carries. Above this, on the upper deck, four six-inch guns are placed. In the vicinity of which six-inch armor is worked far enough forward and aft to afford protection to the crews of thes9 guns. Protection is afforded the vitals of the ship below the water line by a protective deck with armor from two and three-quarters to four Inches thick. The main battery of the ship consists of four twelve-Inch lilies placed in two balanced turrets and sixteen six-inch guns. The turrets are turned by electricity and can revolve through 3"0 degrees in one minute. Ten of the six-inch guns are within the casemate, as before stated. Two others are on the berth forward in six-inch armored sponsons and four are on the upper deck. Those in the sponsons forward and two on the upper deck can fire directly ahead and the other two on the upper deck directly astern, in aehlition to having a broadside fire. The secondary battery consists of six three-inch guns, eight six-pounders, Fix one-pounders, two colts and two three-inch field guns. A new feature Introduced Into the offensive power of this ship is two submerged torpedo tubes. While German warships have been equipped with these tubes for a number of years, the Missouri and her class are the first battleships of our navy to be supplied with them. There are two masts fitted with the usual signal yards, tops and topmasts, one mast as usual being over the forward conning tower. The Missouri carries fourteen boats, of which one is a forty-foot steam cutter and another a thirty-six foot steam cutter of the usual navy type. The boats arc handled by four cranes operated by eteam and each of which can lift the heaviest boat that it has to handle at the rate of forty feet per minute. Bilge keels to reduce rolling are fitted to the vessel, experiments In recent years In our own and foreign navies having demonstrated the great efficiency of these keels in preventing excessive rolling. Hydraulic gear is used in steering the vessel and can put the rudder from hard aport to hard astarboard In twenty seconds when the vessel is moving at full speed. Electricity is used for lighting the vessel and for operating the turrets and hoists and for communicating between parts of the ship and for other minor purposes. Four powerful searchlights will give warning of the aproach of hostile vessels. For night signaling the ship carries two sets of electric signaling apparatus. The normal coal supply Is l.OOO tons and the capacity of the bunkers is 2,000 tons. The arrangement of the bunkers Is such as to afford considerable incidental protection to the machinery. The Missouri and her class are the first battleships in the United States navy in which water tube boilers are provided. Steam for the propelling machinery Is supplied by water tube boilers of the Thorneycroft type placed in four water-tltrht compartments. There are three smoke pipes. The two propelling engines are of the vertical cylinder direct acting, triple expansion type, having four cylinders. The collective indicated horsepower is about 16.000 when the vessel Is making eighteen knots. Mrs. Roosevelt nt Old Point. NEWPORT NEWS. Va., Dec. 27.

CHICAGO, Dec. 27. Billy Delaney, manager of Champion J. J. Jeffries, arrived in the city to-day. He is bound for New' York, with the object of inducing some of the leading heavyweights to try their luck with Jeffries. Delaney said: "My visit to New York is solely for the purpose of signing some good man to fight Jeffries. Every possible inducement will be offered Fitzsimmons to draw him into another match with Jeffries. Bob is the man the public is most anxious to have tackle the champion. I don't know whether he has retired for good or not. One hears so many contradictory stories that It is impossible to tell which is false and which Is true. If he doesn't want to- fight again he has a perfect right to stay out of the game. All he has to do is to tell me so and we shall not trouble him further. I have made arrangements to hold a sort of reception in New York next Monday afternoon between the hours of 4 and G o'clock. All of the leading heavyweights or their representatives will be requested to attend and make bids for a fight with Jeffries. I don't mean to play any favorites, and the man who gets his forfeit money for a match down first will be Jeffries's next opponent. Madden will have to look elsewhere for a match on behalf of Denver Ed Martin. While Jeffries does not draw the color Jine strictly, yet he refuses to box a negro for the championship. Whoever Jeffries may be matched with, the contest will undoubtedly take place at 'Frisco. It is the only locality where a big right can be brought off in absolutely safety." EDDIE SAXTRY AVOX.

Y., got the decision over Young Mowatt, of Chicago, before the Columbia Athletic Club to-night. The bout was one of fifteen rounds and went the limit. The men weighed in at 126 pounds.
