New York, Oct. l. - Yes, dresses
are bright and brilliant and gay; and
so are hats, startingly so; and 80
are glovss-the brightest colored gloves you
ever saw are worn these days on the streets;
but the wraps and cloaks for this coming
season far excel in magnifcence, richness
and bri.liancy all the handsome dress goods
and gowns, all the beautiful hsadgear yea
displayed. They're positively overawing,
these rich brocades and cloths, with their
beading and fringes and Innings aud trim
minH. We can't quite tell whether we
like them or not; we're only wonderfully
impressed by them at present.
Are they very different from last years
styles2 Well, the nantes are little longer:
some OF them fall tri1e beyond the old
three-quarter length, some Of them go
down to the ground. or course almost
everything has box-plait somewhere in its
composition, unless it's just Of plain, loose
box-cut A great many are open at the
neck, but there are still more that have
yokes coming closely together Just yet
plain garments for ordinary wear are in the
background, and these magnificent creations
claim all attention.
One most gorgeous wrap is Of dark green
velvet shot with dull red. l5 Is trim ned

trimming of ths two oolors combined.
There is a great deal Of gold on the wraps

ground has a regular overwork design in
black pAssementerie and braiding which

in black.
Another fawn is double breasted and has

nearer the back.
A rich bright green cloth has a turnback

One very peculiar garment has front of
soft brown cloth, which hangs like the box.
straight from the shoulders No buttons or
fasteninRs are visible, bat after close ex-
animation you discover that it is confined
at the side under two small plaits that have
been taken in the cloth. The back is the
same box shape, but it is made Of brown
velvet. On both back aud front is laid
richly embroidered yoke Of beading in
many colors and there are also sleeve bands
of it, The wrap is thickly wadded aud
lined with old rose satin.
Still another cl ak has tzht-fitting,
short wasted jacket, completely covered
with delicate braiding. From the jacket
hangs the skirt OF the garment, long and plain
in front. but in the back made Of two box
plaits. Over the skirt, almost completely
covering it, falls deep fringe Of silk and
beads.
Another wrap, Of three.quarter length, is
striped with alternate bands Of black plush
and rich brocade. A black stripe strikes
the middle Of the back, and upon 1t is laid a
