NEW ORLEANS TO HAVE
NEW STEAMSHIP LINE
To Handle Shipments from and for
Entire South.
Philadelphia, Oct. 17. New Orleans
Is to have a new steamship line which
will begin operations early next month
and handle shipments from and for
the entire ' south, according to a pub
lished announcement here today. The
vessels of the new line will operate
from Philadelphia and New Orleans
through the Panama aanal to Los
Angeles, San Francisco and Honolulu.
The new line is reported to have the
financial backing of steel interests of
Philadelphia and is made possible by
the present rail rate on steel products
from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast
which is $1.37 1-2 per hundred pounds.
The water route it is declared, will
cut this rate almost In half. The
names of the steamships which will
be' placed on the route will -be an
nounced soon.
On 'the eastward run from the Pa
cific coast, the ships will "bring sugar
from" Honolulu and canned goods,
dried ruits and other products of the
western coast. The ships will stop at
New Orleans and discharge part of
their cargo of merchandise destined
for places in the south, then take on
rice, cotton and other southern pro
ducts for Philadelphia. On the west
ern run the steamships will take out
cargo for New Orleans and other
southern points .and iron, steel and
manufactured goods for the Pacific
coast. ...

Colonel : Roosevelt's ranch partner a t ,
the time that the future president was

Thfl nlap was crowded with the

' A IR-IN is the coat of double use. For
il fair weather this fall you want a
stylish topcoat of good material. For the rainy
days . you want a waterproof coat to keep' you
dry and comfortable. . Air-in serves the purpose
of both-r-at the price of one. In appearance it
is a gentleman's topcoat, but when wet weather
comes it gives you complete prdtection from the
elements. ' : ' -; ;
We term Air-in the "coat ;vith lungs"
because it has none of the stuffiness of
the ordinary raincoat... It is scientifically yenti
lated by the invisible opening in the back of the
coat whichinsures a continual circulation of air.
Air-in veritably breathes as you walk.
Go to a good' clothings merchant and
ask him to explain the many exclusive
features, whjch have won such wide favor for
this new idea in coat-malng.
