New hat braids are either coarse to extremity or of t a very fine nature, such as Leghoru, Milan, hemp and hair. Shallow yokes of net, lace or fine embroideries are a feature or many of the new dresses. Sleeves on the latest models are short. , Spring styles show a strong Russian influence. We find Russian blouses in vogue, and Russian turbans worn with Russian mesh veils. There are many attractive new hand bags. Some of them are lined w'th suede, others with moire, while still others h3ve no lining at all. One of the newest fancies is to trim the blazer suit with foulard or with silk serge, and to line the garment with the same soft material. Tunics of chiffon cloth, worn in po lonaise fashion over little ankle length frocks of wool and mohair are the craze iust now In Paris. The scarf, first intended as a light covering for the head, now has de veloped intQ a wrap sufficient for pro tection from head to knee. , New hats show much lace in their make-up, and oddly, a bit of winter is retained in a jmariel of fur- mingled with flowers, lace and tulle. Mercerization h?s reached an ar,t, and the silky appearance g'ven by it raises some of the ertswhile humble trimmings to a prominent place. Tailored suits of white linen show collar and cuffs of foulard or of a plain satin in contrasting tones rose, old blue, tan, lavender and the like. Some of the most effective cotton and cotton and silk voiles are spotted or striped in self-color with satin-finished disi's, dots or lines. The fichu is as-ain in voerue, but it is now made flat like a large shawl collar and of "all-over lace embroidery or heavily embroidered net. Chiffon cloth will be much used in combingtion with p'ain and tailored silks, both as a trimming . and as a veili"" ma-teria-l vi- v.rtirt. ' MIDDLE OF THE ROAD FORTAFT President Washes His Hands of Cannon Fight and Takes Up Study of Canadian Tariff. (Special from United Press.) Rochester, N. Y., March 19. "Mid dle of the Road" is the position the President has assumed today in re gard to the Cannon insurgent strug gle resumed at Washington. Before leaving Rochester' for Albany the President dictated replies to a huge, sheaf of telegrams from Washington. Both insurgent and Cannon leaders appealed to the President by wire to do something to relieve the situation. To every request that he interfere the President sent an answer that, stripped of its polite phrases, meant; "This is none of my business." Having washed his hands of that affair the President today took up again his study of the Canadian tariff situation which .will be threshed out at Albany tonight. The President, W. S. Fielding, the Canadian minis ter of finance and probably Earl Grey will take part in the tariff confer Albany.March 19. With American and British flags appearing on all sides and the city taking on a holi day appearance, Albany this after noon welcomed the President of the United States and for the first time in its history the " Governor-General of i Canada in the person of Earl Grey. President Taft's party arrived from Rochester at 2i30 o'clock At the station were Governor Hughes and Mayor Mcjswen, who was. a class mate of the President's at Yale. As the President emerged from his pri vate car he was greeted by the pair and escorted to the , executive man sion accompanied by Troop A of the .National Guard. Shortly after 4 o'clock President Taft, Governor Hughes and the party left the man sion in automobiles for Barman's Bleecker Hall to attend the tuber culosis conference Tonight the President will speak at a dinner given by the University Club. Earl Grey arrived this after noon to attend the , University Club dinner. He was escorted to the Ten Eyck Hotel by a battalion of the 12th regiment. The Governor-General will remain in Albany until to morrow night. CANNON DEFEATED, VOTE 181 TO 164 . j . , ,. (Continued from Pare 1.) "NO conclusion has been reached. The fight will go on at noon." This was the official announcement made at the eonclus'on of the conference of the allies and the regulars after a two hours, session this morning in an ef fort to reach a .compromise on the rules question. 12:20 p. . m. The point Of order against the Norris resolution to abol ish the present committee on rules and substitute a committee of fifteen to be selected by the members of the House and of which the Speaker shol-d not be a member, was sustained by Speak er Cannon, this afternoon. He began reading a carefully prepared opinion on the quest-ton immediately after the journal of the previous had had been read1. . .;.-,-... i The galleries were packed ;to the doors and thousands of men and wo men thronged the corriodrs and stair ways unable to even get a glance in side the House chamber, while scores of Senators, ex-Senators and ex-members grouped themselves in the open spaces of the House and banked them selves four deep behind the brass rail ings in the rear of the members' seats. Seldom has a more' dramatic scene been w'nes?ed in the House than at the conclusion of the Speaker's ruling as he stood, pale-faced but resolute upon the marble rostrum and under the great flag of the nation slowly ut tered thes word: "Planting himself upon the law made for the House by Speaker Randall, appealing from the passions of this day to the just reasons of that day, the Chair sustains the point of order and holds that the resolution is not!! now in order." , - The precedent on", which Speaker Cannon made the ruling against the Norris resolution occurred December 13, 1878. "This identical question arose in the House," said Cannon. "Mr. Roger O. Mills of Texas, proposed as a question of constitutional privilege, exactly as is proposed- today, an offer from the fjoor for Immediate consider ation, a proposition looking to the amendment of the rules. . And when objection was made, as it is made to day, Mr. Mills argued: 'It is- the Con stitutional privilege of a. House of Representatives to adopt rules at any time; it is - a continuing power of which the House of Representatives cannot divest itself.' "The members of the House did not agree with Mr. Mills, and Mrs. James A. Garfield objected that it was pro posed to carry the power in this re spect further than the constitution justifies. If the position of the gen tleman were correct a member cou?d at any time interrupt our proceedings by bringing in a proposition .for the amendment of our rules.' "Thf great Democratic Speaker, Samuel J. Ra.ndtt.il. heard the argu ments for and against tiie claim of Mr. Mills, and decided that the proposition to amend the rules was not a ease of constitutional privilege. , There was criticism, grave criticism of rules in those days, but no man in the House thousrht of appealing from a djeeision so consonant with reason." At the conclusion of the Speaker's ruling, Gaines (Rep.. W. V.) moved to adjourn but was voted down by a large majority. - Norris then appealed to decision of the Chair and Dalzell moved to lay the apneal on the table. On. this a roll call was demanded. According to a further provision of the substitute resolution the new ru'e shall go into effect within 10 days af ter its adoption. Representative Clark (Democrat, Mo.) leader of the minority, was given the first opportunity to speak on the reso lution, Norris having yielded to him. Past High Priests Nio-ht There was a large attendance at the regular meeting of Jerusalem Chapter, R. A. M., last evening. The dep-ree work was exemplified by the past high priests of the chapter. If it is desired to have a veil a lit tle stiff after it is washed, it can be accomplished by having a tiny bit of sugar in the rinsing water.

' That a vast majority of the men will vote in favor of striking seems to be a foregone conclusion. It seems an equal ly strong conclusion, at least according to the opinions of ; many who are in a position to know, that before Pres ident Mellfen will allow a strike to ac tually begin he will enter into confer ence with the committees and before long arrange a settlement that will bring industrial peace on the road for years to come. GLASNER ARRESTED; USURY CHARGED Hairfield Carpenter Claims that He Borrowed $200 and Was Required By Ac cused to Gjve Note for $300 Denial By Accused, Who Says He Will Ex plain All. Frank Glasner, the reputed pro prietor of the Independent Loan & Security Co., was arrested this after noon a the offices of .the loan com pany. Beers building, 991 - Broad street, opposite the city . hall, on a warrant issued by Assistant Prosecut ing Attorney Redden charging i him with practicing usury. Glasner went to police headquart ers with' Detective Sergeant Cronan at 2 o'clock, first - telephoning his brother, Samuel Glasner. The latter errived a few minutes after the de tective and his prisoner, and furnish ed bonds of $1,000 for the release of the accused. John Sirko, a carpenter of Fair field, is the complaining witness. He told his story to Prosecutor Redden several days ago and as a result of the investigation that followed,' the warrant was issued today. Glasner laughs at the idea .of his being prose cuted and says the whole thing is a misunderstanding. He claims to have bought a. piece of property from Sir ko and sold it back. -at an advanced figure The allegation that he took notes of $300 to cover a loan of $200 is not true, he claims. .The penalty provided for the of fence .charged against Glasner is a fine of . not more than $1,000 or a jail sentence of not more than six months or both. ' , ; The warrant charges that Glasnei on July 30 last "did then and there loan to one John sirKo tne sum oi S200 and did then and there unlawfully and feloniously charge the said John Sirko Interest therefor at a rate great er than 15 per cent, per annum to wit, at the rate of 65 per cent per ?lnnuf. there being no bona fide ; mortgage of real or personal property as secur ity for said loan, against tne peace and contrary to the form of the sta tue in sucn cases pruviueu. And the said Prosecuting Attorney further informs that at said city on said day Frank Glasner with force and arms did loan to one John Sirko the sum of $200 and did then and there unlawfully and feloniously accept two notes for a greater amount than the sum of $200 so actually loaned to wit for the sum of $300 one of said notes being for $200 and the other being for SI no with the intent then and there to evade the provisions of Section 1 of Chapter 238 .of the Public Acts of 1907 against the peace and contrary to the form of the statue in such cases provided. And the said Prosecuting Attorney further informs that at said city on said day said Frank Glasner did with force and arms loan J to one John Sirko the sum of $200 and did then and there1 unlawfully and feloniously charge the said . John Sirko with the expense of inquiring into the finan cial responsibility of .said John Sirko the sum of $25 and did charge that said John Sirko Interest on said loan at- the rate of fi5 per cent, per an num and the total amount' of said charges and of the Interest agreed to be p'aid on said loan during the year from said July '30 did exceed the sum of 15. per cent, on said loan, there being no bona fide mortgage of real or personal property as security for said loan. - Assistant Prosecutor Redden, who Is sued the warrant, says he wants to drive the loan sharks out' of business. Recently as a result of evidence 'ob tained through Redden and the po lice. Gerson Zlff. a Water street mer chant, was fined in the city court for taxing Illegal interest. Redden will not divulge the extent of evidence he has secured against Glasner. but he says he is confident the testimony will be a revelation to many who are not familiar with the sharp practices re sorted to by money lenders.
