The New Autumn Things Are rapidly taking their places on the shelves and counters and are bright in their rich beauty and new- ness—attractive in their many novel and unique forms of prettiness. Many are enjoying a first view now. Women’s New Bicycle Attire. These are ideal bicycle days, but the clothing must be right to enjoy them. No garment in the bicycle outfit should bind or compress the gure at any point and the weight of the suit should be equally distri- buted. Heavy clothing is burden- rome and tight clothing impedes cir- culation and restricts muscular ac- tion. We are now showing the latest ef- fects in Bicycle Suits and Skirts; also the proper Shoes, Stockings, Bloomers, Waists, Corse! Undergarments, Hats, Gloves, etc. Special attention is called to the following recent arrivals: Cycling Suits of all-wovl cheviot, cutaway—fiy- front jacket and skirt of the most approved shape; all sizes; a varlety of patterns. $7.50 a suit. An elegant new Cycling Skirt is of fency rough English cheviot, in a weight that requires no lin- ing; made in the latest approved shape, with a wide, heavily stitched band of contrasting cloth around bottom—a very stylish and handsome skirt. $6.75 each.

Mr. Conant on Some Figures in the Republican Text Book. To the Editor of Phe Evening Star. In your issue of today you have given the substance of the rather remarkable state- ments of the “Republican Text Book for the Campaign of 1898" on the comparative economy of the bond tssues under the ad- ministration of Mr. Cleveland and under that of Mr. McKinley. I trust you will give me space to call attention to several] errors in the calculations there made. The author of that po tion of the text book is either very ignorant of the finances of the United States or else he has intentionally put to- gether a tissue of misrepresentations which would make the most radical advocate of free silver Mush for his reputation. The paragraph which gives the pith of the ar- gument of the Campaign Text Book is as follows: “It will thus be seen that if the bonds is- sued under the Cleveland administration had been floated at the low rate of interest agithorized under the McKinley administra- ton: Cleveland annual interest. McKinley annual interest It would have saved the people. or $36,231,540 in ten years, and in thirty years.” This calculation is vitiate@ by three er- rors. It is suggested in the text “how easy it was to floai a three per cent bond,” in apparent ignorance of the fact that no authority of law existed in J894, 1895 or 1896 to float a bond at a less nominal rate than four per cent. The fact that Mr. Cleveland placed his first two loans at a premium, which made the bonds pay less than three per cent, is also ignored by the innocent words “premium barred.” ‘De third error consists in computing “Clewe- land arnual interest” for thirty years, on the whole sum, when, in fact, the first two loans, amounting to | $100,000.00), ran €or only ten years. This fact alone, indepen- dently of the premiums, would knock aft two-thirds of the alleged loss upon the five per cent bonds. As a matter of fact, the loans placed ‘by Mr. Cleveland for the mainte public credit, and upon of republica ear business men ar a the author of the ex five per cent for thirty years, we placed at a rate of less than th jund netted premiums 4 later were p! at a somewhat higher rate Ja.simple calculation will show how false is the sugges a aéministration « Book in do not thi: would care to ado; m, but as I can figure the matter, on the two loans of 1894 alon st s follows Loan of $160,000,000, inte premiums a, $17.199,9 erest payments ten years, § apparent calculation of Republi nterest on S1OO.Q0.000 at for thirty years, $1 tror in cal culation of Republica Book, $11f,- 417. is not necessary to go into tion compound interest or « in regard to the other two by Mr. Cleveland in ot gross misrepresentation Text Book, It is somew termine the motive of offensive truthful attacks like this upon Mr land and his friends, when Presi Kinley owes his seat in a large m the refu of nearly a million of support Mr. upon the maxim that th is so hated as he who hi ice. , September Bryan and free sii ere is no « done one A >— That Post Office To the Edi lock. roof The Evening Star In reply to the article in The Star of the Ith instant, I desire to say that the work done recently on the clocks at the new ity t office building was executed by me w der contract with the supervising tect’s office, and strictly ing to t cifications, viz.: The tands to be g the counterbalances to be painted a neu- tral color to eliminate them as much as possible, and the inside of the dial plates t» be frosted.
