THE BEE: OMAHA, SATUliJUY, MAY 24, 1913.
WILL FASHIONENSLAYE MEN?
Squint In that Direction Reflected
by New Styles.
RAIMENT IN DAZZLING COLORS
Bine Hats, Jeweled Shirts, SlUc
Salts, llnttoiUes Coats, Var
nished ho and Other
Wonders.
Man's boasted Independence of the pre
vailing fashions Is at an end. Hereafter
he must accept the mandates of the
tailor, the. haberdasher, the hatmaker
and the bootmaker or take the con
sequences. Just what the consequences
are to be Is not clear, but the persons
who outfit the male havo laid down cer
tain arbitrary rules which every man
must follow, they say, If ho cores to
havo himself considered properly garbed.
A careful Investigation of what being
"properly garbed" means reveals the
fact that beginning with this spring
there has been nothing more nor less
than a revolution In men's clothes. This
does not mean coats, waistcoats and
trousers alone; It Includes everything
from the skin out. There are new styles
for what Is left of the spring, new styles
for the coming summer and very new
styles for next fall and winter. And
the tailors, the haberdashers and the hat
and bootmakers say they must be fol
lowed whether you have your outfits
made to order or buy them ready made.
There is a determined movement to re
duce man to a condition of slavery. That
the very smart dresser will succumb
readily the clothing tyrants do not doubt.
That the man of moderate means will
follow tho smart dresser also Is accepted
as certain. Still, there are some rebel
lious persons who may refuse to abandon
the square toed lace shoes, the boiled
shirts with detachable cuffs and other
accustomed joys In dress. They are 40
be disposed of by making the new styles
so general In point of usage that the
Insurrectionist will be unpleasantly con
spicuous and eventually surrender.
Will Cost More Money.
It would be pleasant to note that the
rifw styles will work an, economy In dress
expenditures. Such is 'not the cose. To
dress properly is going to cost about
twice as much as It used to, save In the
matter of hats, shoes and gloves.
It Is awful to contemplate what may
result from a detailed publication of the
new styles. From the top of his blue
hat to the soles of his varnished Bhoes,
man will be a spectacle to behold. Prop
erly blended, however, the new styles
aro what women would call "stunning,"
although they Involve more changes than
the average man cares to make every
twenty-four hours.
The new dress coats are very short
woisted, giving a longer effect to the
skirt. They fit snugly and the sleeves are
tight, giving a military effect. The tend
ency of the front of the coats Is to roll
back, revealing a much of tho shirt as
l-oH-lble. Collars and lapels faced with
silk will be quite proper, but the real
smart thing 1 to have tben: faced with
satin. Silk and satin covered buttons only
are used, and these ore caught with silk
. loops Instead of buttonholes. There are
no cuffg on anytf the coats and they are
fitted snugly under the arms..
Evening trousers are to bang straight
' and will not be tight. As a concession to
' the dancing erase they will be short, al
ii most as short as the conventional flannel
outing trousers with the turned back
. cuffs. Some flare out at tho bottom of
the legs, but this is not necessary. One
may have one or two silk strlpea'down
frhe sides of the trousers.
Tnxedo Coat l Doomed.
White and cream colored waistcoats will
prevail with evening clothes, and they
may be single or double breasted. It
single breasted they will not show the
long points, being rounded off abruptly at
the ends. The doublo breasted waistcoats
fit straight across the top of the trousers.
Three or four buttons ore proper on the
fdngla breasted garment,, six or eight on
(the double breasted one: The material
tusd Is pique, either Plain wun a line
ptrlpe or slightly figured.
The tuxedo or dinner coat, smart tailors
pit.?, has been reduced to the level of a
pmolUng JocKCt. 11 sun may oe worn 10
Ithe theater, but will' not be regarded as
good form at any function having the
CfUgbtest pretense to formality.
Morning clothes, meaning tho conven
rttosal sack suits, are to be tighter, giving
the wearer his natural form. From the
-waist down the coats will hang loose.
"Waistcoats for morning suits will be out
(low, the Idea bolng to show as much as
looeilHs of the scarf. The coats will be
cut even lower than the waistcoats. Of
)the latter either single or double breasted,
with or without collars, may be worn.
The waistcoats will be stralghter and
v ttuHer than In the post.
The morning suitings to be used are
fltver gray tones, blues In various shades
bna Drown mixtures, ai,ixjib wui nave
two buttons at the most. The real classy
ones, however, will have but one button.
They may bo braided with a rounded silk
ribbon, .and tho button or buttons may
be caught with a loop, making button
boles unnecessary. The lapels will bo
Irolllng and there will be no Interior lln
'ings, nothing but cloth on the outside and
Jhe single light silk lining Inside.
Si lit Salts for Hammer Wear.
For summer wear flannels, serge and
ether materials ore set aside In favor
f silk materials. These are mostly In
light tan and figured, some having faint
Ight blue stripes. They are the smartest
summer garments that have been intro
duced here, say the tailors, and what
extra they cost In price Is made up for
by their durability and beauty.
Frock and cutaway coats for afternoon
wear will have no buttonholes, the silk
loop being used exclusively. The cut
away coat is by far the' more popular,
and the newest styles bring them, pretty
close to the' evening coat. They are faced
fvrth silk to the edges, and looped tight
Wround the waist, the skirt going sharply
pock. The cutaways have only one but
ton, the frocks two. Double-breasted
Ehlte waistcoats should be worn with
ese-afternoon coats. The trousers must
be of different material and striped.
JDasbmeres and worsteds will be the
tooper thing.
' The shirts for full evening dress have
telquet bosoms, very wide, to conform
jhrlth the new dress coats and waistcoats.
Mid either plain, faintly striped or fig
tired. They have stiff linen cuffs. The
lew shirt for the dinner coat has a silk
xsom with a silk and linen boay. The
neks are very much finer than ever used
before.
Shirts for morning wear have the
rtripes running across them Instead of
jp and down and have a wide variety of
pleats. The smartest, say the harber
lashers, Is the one with the double
pleats. Stiff collars of the same mate
lal as the shirts should be worn with
nem. For warm weather shirts of Eng.
Ith crepe are replacing piquet and
Radios, Xhtae bava soft daub, cuXf
and collars of the same material as the
shirts, although an ordinary white collar
of linen may be used.
With the dress shirts there are fancy
Jewelry sets of links, studs and waist
coat buttons. Sapphires and rubles are
proper for those who can afford them.
In dress neckties the proper thing Is
lawns with pointed ends. One who would
be real smart should have these made to
order, as there are very decided restric
tions as to the length of the bow. For
morning wear the large folded four-ln-hand
of striped English foulard or plain
colored crepe should be used. With cut
aways and frock coats large Ascot tics of I
the same materials will bo proper, The
string tie Is barred absolutely for the time
being.
In handkerchiefs theto Is a startling
revolution. For morning and afternoon
wear there are large handkerchiefs of silk
In what the haberdashers call "crazy pat
terns." These are made "to match the
neckties. The plain white handkerchief
will still be used for evening dresk. but
Its function begins and ends there.
Outing shirts must be of silk and wool
In neat stripes, with long pointed collars J
attacnea. unaerarawers must do Knee
length and must match In design an
outer shirt that Is worn. TJndershlrts for
the summer are to be of light lisle.
Any one who still owns a pair of light
tan chamois gloves had better get rid of
them. The haberdashers have marked J
them "bad form." The proper gloves for
ordinary year are tan dogskin, with light
gray suede gloves for atternoon wear and
plain white kid or buckskin gloves for
evening wear. If you must wear sus
penders tho proper thing Is silk effects,
but the haberdashers admit that, much
as they would like to, they have not
been able to drive the belt to the wall.
Scarfplns for afternoon and morning
wear must be small, preferably pearls.
A stick must be carried. This Is final.
The czars ot men's dress havo decreed
that no man Is properly dressed, morning,
afternoon or evening, without a stick.
Plain malacca, with or without a, narrow
sliver band, Is the best stick to carry.
Canes light In color should be used in
the warm months. New York Herald.

period does not expire until July 30 a
year from the date ot his -death.
The emperor's condition Issued by the
court physicians today says:
"His majesty's temperature has risen
to 103.46 Fahrenheit. His pulse Is 90 and
his respiration SO."
The young emperor Is holding his own,
according to officials at the palace. They
declared this afternoon that his prospects
of recovery are more hopeful.
Multitudes of Japanese prayed through
out the day In the streets near tho palace
and also In the temples and churches
and at various shrines.
Moore lasaea Statement.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. May 23.
Prestdent Charles C. Moore of the
Panama-Pacific exposition Issued tho
following statement today relative to tho
action yesterday of the Japanese com
mittee In favoring' an appropriation of
$600,000 for Japan's participation In the
exposition:
"The actlcn of the Japanese Parlfa
picnt regarding that nation's participa
tion In the Panama-Pacific International
exposition, confirming the assurances
previously given, especially In view of
the recent events In California, Is a mat
ter of deepest gratification to the ex
position management. Wo have conr
fldently expected that the Japanese par
ticipation would be of a character to
make the world take notice, even at this
universal exposition."
President Receives Cablegram.
WASHINGTON, May 23PresIdent
Wilson today received the following
cablegram from Emperor Toshthito of
Japan:
"Deeply touched by your kind message
inquiring after my Indisposition, I ex
press my slncero thanks to yourself, gov
ernment and to people ot hte United
States."
When news of the sudden Illness
of the emperor of Japan reached
Washington yesterday President WUT
son and Secretary Bryan expressed
dep concern. Charge Ballly-Blanchard
of the American embassy at Toklo
was cabled Immediately to convey
a message of sympathy to tlie Japanese
government and President Wilson sent
a personal message to the emperor
No Instructions to Embassy.
Probably as a result of the anxiety In
official circles In Japan over the condi
tion of the emperor, no Instruction have
been received at the Japanese embassy
to make the expected further representa
tions to the TJnltd Stats government re
garding the California alien land law.
The embassy Is collecting material for
the continuance of the negotiations on
the lines of the original Japanese note of
proiest of May 9. This relates particu
larly to the phase of the conflict between
the California law and the treaty, leav
lng the officials the broader scheme of
policy.
The new law will not go Into effect be
fore August 10, before which date It will
be possible to bring suit, and. for that
reason the negotiations seem to be losing
some of the features of urgency that
characterized the early stages.

WANT TO REORGANIZE SERVICE
i
Ilpqnest that' 11111 to Prevent liOiy
rrlnir of Ills ftnlnry Br Held Oft
for Several Weeks to
Prevent Trouble,
(From a Staff Correspondent)
WASHINGTON, May 23. (Special Tel
egratn,) Plans for legislation to prevent
tho reduction In salary of Cadet Taylor,
surveyor of customs at Omaha were tem
porarily halted today by a request front
the Treasury department to Senator
Hitchcock that ho hill to that effect be
Introduced before July J,
Under the reorganisation plan ot the
customs service, which Is to bo effective
July 1, Mr. Taylor's remuneration will bo
reduced to 2,W0 per year, his fees bolng
cut off.
Under the old plan, by which tho
Omaha survoyor of. customs was allowed
to retain certain fees In addition to his
salary, his nominal stipend amounted to
about $4,600.
In explaining why they wanted no bill
to raise tho salary approximately to the
old figure, Treasury department officials
explained that they preferred to havo all
such niattcrn deferred until tho rcogranl
cation had actually hecomo cfectlve. Thoy
sny this policy Is a strnteglo one, adopted
to prevent tho possibility of upsetting the
reorganization plan before It Is carried
Into effect.
It seems to be unpopular, partly for
the reason that It reduced the salaries
of hundreds ot officials in various states
by cutting off their fees. If members of
congress begin now to Introduce bill to
keep salaries at their figure officials
fear that It will result In a general move
among tho members of congress to de
feat the whole plan of reorganization.
They say that after July 1 they are will.
lng to recommend the passage ot a bill
to fix salaries and $3,600 a year has been
suggested for Mr. Taylor's salary.
Representative Loheck has had his at
tention called to the same matter nnd
at present It Is uncertain Just what
course will be pursued.
Manpln Heooiniuended.
Senator Hitchcock has recommended
the appointment ns public printer of Will
