SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 2S. Business Revival Weii Under Way in America York '—:Selling agents for lines Knit goods, particularly sweater coats and heavy cotton fleeced under wear, are calling the attention of job icrs seriously to the large export busi es being done by many mills in this fcuntry and the probable effect that i will hhve on deliveries of these mills Tor their regular domestic trade an other season. It is asserted that most large mills have export orders on sweater coats and fleeced underwear that will keep them engaged for a number of months ahead in a way that they have not been in former years. Buyers for Jobbing houses, therefore, these agents say, should recognize the fact that mills will not be in the same position that they have usually been in which they were forced to wait for their regular domestic orders to come along as suited the convenience of the jobbers. One large mill, whose men are now out for next fall with samples of men’s fleeced underwear, are frank ly telling jobbers, it is said, that they should get in their commitments earlier this year on account of the excellent prospects for business abroad. This new export business, it is point ed put, is not strictly a matter of sup plying the armies at war, but much of it is regular trade with countries like England, which has heretofore been getting supples from continental mills, like those in Germany. From the experience of sweater coat salesmen who have already been out for next season the jobbers, it is said, have not so far taken this new situa tion seriously. Their orders to date have been very light and some sales men have already returned, recogniz ing that their expenses were much out of proportion to the results obtained. LARGE WAR ORDERS WERE WOOLEN MARKET FEATURE Inquiries Also Engross Attention of Selling Agents. New York. The war contracts placet! on woolen goods for export and renewed inquiries that appeared to have actual business behind them again engrossed the attention of manu facturers last week.

For the week ending November 14, United States exports were over 24 millions, as against 17 millions for last year. Here is an ad. that appears on yie front page of a recent issue of the New York Commercial: “Notice, manufacturers: We require for prompt delivery 1,250,000 wool sweaters. 600,000 wool stomach bands, 1,600,000 pairs wool gloves, 500,000 pairs wool socks. Orders given imme diatelv. Payment spot cash New York. Address B. B. 29, this office." New York.—A new war order was received by the Ansorge Export com panv from the French and English gov ernments caliing for 1,000,000 pairs of heavy wool hosiery and 500,000 cotton sweater coats. It is officially stated that the price has been accepted by these governments on all of this mer chandise and the total order will amount to $750,000. The Ansorge Export company is now looking for production from mills mak ing woolen hosiery and cotton sweater boats, so that the prompt delivery fea ture of the contract may be completed as stipulated, deliveries starting at once and a large proportion to be made each week. The wool hosiery in the order is of three-pound weight and is to be of 60 per cent wool. The same concern has been busy filling another order for 20,000 pairs of wool socks for export. v News advices received here from Pittsburg, Pa., state that the Pitts burg Can company of Etna, Pa., has received an order for 500,000 mess tins, awarded by the British government. The mess tins are to be made in the form of a folding plate, with a long handle on one plate. The Pittsburg foreign trade commis sion is also credited with the an nouncement that they have been ad vised by cable that a delegation of business men and financiers from Ru mania would arrive in this country in about two weeks for the purpose of making government purchases on be half of the Rumanian government amounting to approximately $12,000,- 000. The delegation, it is said, will en'leavoß, to close contracts for small arms, light and heavy guns for the artillery arm of service and other mu nitions. The commission also announced that it had received from J. Rogers Flan nery who is in London, a cable ask ing that quotations be immediately se cured on 2,000 tons of galvanized steel wire of exceptionally heavy gauge and tensile strength. Bids were secured from some manufacturers and sub mitted by cable. Another cabled in quiry from London asked for bids on 20 000 cast steel wheels. Other pros pective war orders in the steel mar kets reported from various centers In clude an inquiry from Russia for bids on steel rails and another for the same material from Norway. Pittsburg trade authorities also re port that the Pittsburg Shaving Bntsh company has received orders for 500,- 000 shaving brushes from the British government, to be delivered in the next three months. Local drug trade interests report that during the past week they have received many inquiries from agents for the British government for chlorate of potash and oxalic acid, and it was confidently expected that some impor tant orders for these materials would be placed here soon. It 1. further stated that there have been some very heavy sh*P'*nts of chloroform from this port rec&y destined for France on pur chJTs made by agents in this city for that government. Official advices have been received which say that the Chinese Eastern railway desires to . 1 lowing articles in the L nßed Chloroform, cocaine, morphine, so Hum bromide, quinine, form alia cot ton and cloth for bandages.

Inquiries for 250.000 tons of coal In 80,000-ton lots, for immediate ship- ment, were made by accredited repre sentatives of the Chilian government in Philadelphia, according to advices from that city. Exporters who are fig uring on the orders, in explaining the big demand for coal from that source, attributed it to the fact, which inci dentally leaked out, that Australia, which supplied Chili with 850.000 tons of coal in 1913, had very recently placed an embargo on the exportation of coal. Orders for approximately $4,000,000 worth of bullets for Europe have been received at she 'Western Cartridge com pany plant, according to news dis patches from Alton, III.' F. W. Oling of the Cartridge company is quoted as saying that the ultimate destination of the shipments is not known to them, the orders having been placed through New York brokers and are to be shipped by them. The 30-30 caliber long steel jacketed bullets, the seven millimeter cartridges and the .43-cali ber lead bullets. non-Jacketed, make up the bulk of the orders. Charles M. Schwab, president of the Bethlehem Steel company, was sched uled to arrive here on board the Ad riatic, returning from a three weeks’ trip to England. Reports are current FABRICS OF THE PAST THE FABRICS OF TODAY Velours and Ratine With Plush- Like Pile For Daytime Wear. Brocades For Evening Gowns. New York.—There are, far less new fabrics upon the market this season than last. The variety, however, does not seem to be lessened, for it merely means that instead of the new we have gone back to many of the fabrics which have been considered passe for many seasons, ee eeeee eeeee eeee Velour de laines and ratine are re cent novelties which have held their own. This year they have become thick er and the pile of the Vielour de laine is heavier, making it seem almost plush like. Broadcloth is another fabric that has a renewed vogue this year, and many suits and costumes are to be seen of it. The A Conservative Model In the Popular Jumper Effect chiffon broadcloth, which Is light weight In comparison with the other broadcloth, is used extensively for one-piece dress es. Black, blue, green, beige and mauve are colors which are especially attrac tive in broadcloth. Faille, once called Ottoman and ben gallne, is very populaV in silk or wool. It has a suppling* and a firmness which make It especially suited to the one-piece frock. The clothes of the sea son are what determines the fabrics and this year the one-piece frocks and sepa rate coats cause fabrics supple and substantial to be the mode. There is serge, the standby of de cades, gabardine and fabrics which have a long-haired silky finish called, kitten's car, peau de souris (mouse skin), and ziheline. Velvet, imitation mole and Persian lamb cloth complete a wide variety of the smart fabric* for the daylight hours. The Jumper effect in dresses which Is so popular at the present time, adds an other happy way of combining fabrics and colors. In faille silk come* a long tuniced frock with a pleated lower skirt and a jumper basque waist. The sleeves and underarms of this waist tire of soft silk with a Paisley design. A close fitting little hat with three perky feath ers In the front gives extra dash to the costume. Plaids in gray and festive colors are always a bright note in the seasons when they are popular. In greens and blues with a touch of red or yellow they may be used to advantage for the win tcr frock, primarily for home wear, but which jnay fl 11 many wants under a styl ish separate coat.

An irrevocable cable credit for the amount of the transaction has been placed with a New York bank, to be drawn upon as shipments are made. an A Frock in Autumn-Toned Plaid Brocades which embody In themselves all the sumptuousness of a century ago are the fabrics used for evening gowns. On heavy silk, thin voile, chiffon or velvet, gold and silver threads are woven into the brocade designs. There are also velvet brocaded voiles and chif fons with a bit of gold or silver in or outlining the design. These brocades are not stiff as of old, but soft and pli able, draping most artistically. Black satin, faille and velvet hold a strong place among evening gowns. These are lightened by the use of rib bon sashes In vivid shades, as well as by the wonderful Roman striped rlbbofla and silks which are very popular. Some of the newest of these show the autumn note in their combinations of russet brown, gfeen and dull red with always a stripe of black. This new color scheme Is also to be seen In the new taffetas. Taffeta, by the way, is used a great great deal In combination with serge gabardine. For the younger generation come chif fon voiles with a six <A eight-inch satin stripe in self-color woven on the edge. Tunics and flounces are made with this stripe on the edge und with the plain voile for the rest of the frock. These voiles come in ail the light shades so popular for evening wear, soft blues, shell pinks, varying shades of green and In a yellow that so closely resembles gold that It hardly seems possible that It Is not a metal cloth. The costumes at present demand many accessories In the way of neck wear, and the present tendency'ln these dainty lace and organdy affairs Is to ward the cape effects. Fichu effects are also to be seen and are an attractive addition to a dark frock o fserge, gabar dine or satin. On the popular dark blue frocks are to be seen cuffs and collars in yellow 'Vepe or ecru linen. One set of ecru linen had turnback cuffs and standing collar hemstitched In an Inch wide hem. Another set was of white linen with yellow stripes about a quarter of an Inch apart. The collar was high and did not meet In the front, while the turn-back cuffs were wide and pointed. The edges of collar and cuffs were bound with yellow to match the stripe in the linen. There has been a good deal of talk about the advent of low-heeled shoes, but, except trfr the walking shoes with rubber soles and spring, or very low heels they have not appeared. Short vamped shoes are again appearing, with high French or Vienna he*'* The Vienna heel Is quite the newest heel and Is neither French, Cuban nor Mexi can. It Is high, narrok and straight and looks pinched. A new shoe model which is having a vogue among the people who allow themselves the luxury of changing with every whim of the merry Jestress Dams Fashion, Is square toed and with high French heels. T. .s shoe Is fashioned after French shoes. For the Indoor shoe are those with a white kid vamp and block patent-leather hack portions and strappings.
