Officials Continue to Maintain Silence
on the Condition of Affairs.
LONDON, Nov. 16.-Bank of England
officials continue 10 maintain silence re-
garding the rumors of bad fnsnciering
upon its part. 1t is stated on good author
ity however, that the banks connection
with the bad tinanciering is practically
limited to its transaction in the South
American and Mexican Company, which
has been ventilated in the courts, and the
fact that there have been Irregularities is
confined to allowing favored customers
TO substitute less desirable securities for
those upon which the money was origi-
nally lent.
THE CHIEF CASHIER DISMISSED.
New YORK, Nov. 16.-A cable dispatch
to the EUeniHg Post from London says:
The Bank of England scandal is dying
out. No formal contradiction has been
issued but it is understood the loss is
trihing. The chief cashier exceeded his
functions by permitting the substitution
OF securities pledged without the author
ity OF his superior. He was dismissed
last week. There has been no fraud. only
irregularities. One director is known to
be financially weak. but the rumor of his
retirement is contradicted. The feeling
generally is reassuring.

No need to wonder why the great crowds
daily t1rong ourstore. We have made prices
that scratch the profit but swell the sales.
Dress Goods buyers never had such op-
portunities as the present. If you handle the
goods we are selling at 25 cents a yard you
might wonder where we got them, for you
never have seen anything like them for less
than so cents yard.
Cash is mighty power and we have used
it to the very best advantage this season. 1t
brought US a line Of 4O-inch All-wOol Chew
lots that we are selling at 35 cents a yard
You never saw the like Of them for less
than 90 cents.
Another line that is selling for so cents

dress, when she really had no intention Of
doing SO.

1t is said that the question OF select

explanation given for the change In
the apparel Of the police officers is that
difficulty is sometimes experienced in
