4 PROSPERITY HAS m, TRUST HEAD/ISSERTS Conditions Never Better So Far as They Affect Our Country. Declares Gary. PITTSBURG, Oct. 29. At the third general meeting of the American iron and Steel institute here Judge S. H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel Corporation, stated that the Unit ed States was in the midst of an un precedented era of prosperity. He laid its cause to the recovery of the general public and the great corporations from the bankers’ panic of 1907. Judge Gary touched very’ lightly on the Interna tional political situation. He said in part: ”We are in the midst of an era of prosperity never before surpassed, so Car as it affects our particular lines. These conditions have not resulted from he application of political policies or efforts, but exist in spite of them. They are here because nothing could pre vent. In the first place, for the last tw years, following the bankers' panic ■f 1907, there has existed a feeling of mcertainty and a lack of confidence vhich have deterred the great purchas ing public from entering the market, oven to the extent of supplying their necessities. This has been especially true of the railroad companies, who are among our largest patrons Buy of Necessity. "In consequence, the necessities of the consumers have piled up to such in extent that they have lately been forced to increase their purchases ma terially. When, therefore, the railroad companies and others similarly situ ated commenced to buy, the general Influence and effect were Immediately felt, and buying on a large scab liatl immediately developed “Moreover, the bountiful crops and sound basic conditions of the country have made every one realize more clearly than ever before that prosperity In this splendid country of ours is to be the rule and ndt the exception, not withstanding at times we may be sur rounded by adverse influences and un warrantable interference, which, in any ordinary country, would bring pro longed distress and suffering. “Questions of great magnitude and concern are at present the minds of the people throughout the world. We may be stubbornly oblivious to some of them, but we ought not to be. We refuse to consider, or at least postpone consideration of. many of them. The questions are international, national and domestic: ami thej in- j volve the welfare of every one. We | are disposed to wrap around oursetvcs I the cloak of self-righteousness, or we j proclaim that we rely upon the stability ‘ of government or the majesty of the i law, and we consider ourselves safe, whether in our vision everything seems o be calm and tranquil or otherwise.

We sometimes forget that it is the I masses of the people who determine i final results: that they may establish and abolish governments; that they! trfky make and unmake constitutions I sooner or later that bring about condi tions satisfactory to them, even by i -- sorting to destructive measures.

Laws to be permanently useful must vary with the varying condition of man. “I am dealing in generalities, not in tending to be specific or to make per sona! reference. The thought I would 'eave with you is that there is r;o way permanently settling any great ques tion involving the welfare of human i kind except on the basis of right and justice.

Oct. 29.- 'Some of the prominent speakers of the third party have not hesitated to declare that the election of Governor Wilson would mean financial disaster to the country, and yet they are working for no other end. From absolute!) dependable sources information comes to me that the leaders of file third party do not beiieve they have the slightest chance of success and that they realize that a vote for it means a vote for the Democrats. But they are so filled with hatred for the Republican party be cause it refused to accede to their de mands they are content to bring dis aster upon the whole country simply to gratify their revenge." Thus wrote President Taft to Fred A... Geier, president of the Prosperity league of Ohio, today just before he left for New York to witness the launching of the battleship New York. The president's letter to Mr. Geier come as the result of the latter's work for the chief executive in Ohio, par ticularly among the steel workers of the Buckeye stale.

"The injury which Ohio would suffer from a Democratic victory would ex ceed that inflicted on any other state in tin Union. This is clearly shown by the efforts which our Democratic friends have already made to rob Ohio industries of the protection which is so essential to their continuance, to say. nothing of their prosperity.” Trousseau Trunks f ■ . 3 . . ■ form a very important, part of our Fall stock.

Atlanta New York Paris The Vogue of Velvet A Notable Showing of Suits, Dresses and Wraps In This Paris=favored Fabric \\ hen Paris speaks the whole world of fashion listens and heeds her words, and Paris has had much to say this season about velvets for suits, for dresses, for wraps. This display is intended to show to the women of Atlanta just what the vogue for velvets really amounts to, how it pervades and predominates the fashions, why beauty-loving Paris acclaims it so lustily. For many of the suits, dresses and wraps that you will see here tomorrow are copies of models that were originated in the shops of the notables of Paris, others are Paris-inspired—the result, a display of surpassing elegance and richness—one that women will want to see as of great interest at this time of selecting their wardrobe for the sea son ahead. The Suits \ou 11 not have to be told that many ot these are of French origin—they look it, charmingly. As an example take this suit of black velvet that has a little square flat collar and broad revers of white velour and a belt effect in the back because ° the position of a heavy-embroidered band—or another suit of black velvet, that, too,has a low flat collar and yet very different from the above. But its chief dis tinction is the white cloth vest and the way the sleeves are touched at the cuffs with white. I hen there are other suits, many of them that will fasten your in terest—these m navy, in brown, in taupe velvet and with them the corduroy suits, two-toned and solid colors, in styles that small women in particular will like Ihe velvet suits are priced from $37.50 to SSB 50, the corduroy from $35 to $48.50. The Dresses Sucii a choice that this stock allows. For here are velvet dresses, all velvet, velvet coinbined with charmeuse, velvet with chiffon—plain velvets, striped velvets, bro caded velvets—each one a distinctive model. One time the charm will lie in the drapery ot a skirt—as in this one of striped velvet in black and a shade of blues just a bit brighter than Copenhagen, the skirt of which is a tunic that drops low and caught at the side front with a band of old gold and blue embroidery that ex tends from the waist—another time the charm will be in the colorings, the com bination of two shades, again it will be in the waist—-the soft chiffonsand the charmeuse that we can hardly tell you of. more than that the woman who loves beautiful dresses is going to enjoy them. These are priced from $17.50 to $78.50. The Coats Distinctly Parisian with their great, loose sleeves and fullness through the body that is gathered into drapings at the front—making them very narrow at the bot tom. 1 his narrowness is often accentuated by wide bands of shirred velvet. And the coats are short this season and often edged with fur-—as this one of raspberry velvet, the back of which is very plain.but the front is a mass of drapings that tall from the one button pl aced rather high. It is edged all around with black marten-—but let us not tell of one when there are so many that are worthy, plain black velvets, black velvets with charmeuse, rich shades of blue, of coral, oi rose, in plain velvets and brocaded velvets. These priced from $37.50 to $98.50.

Mrs. Pinion was denied tlie right to remarry, because she admitted striking her husband.
