 They say: We furnished a new patent Ad non-erasable cancelling ink (secured at great cost in experiments with the United States as the only possible customer1 which saved the department so much in postage stamps that all old inks on hand were displaced. This caused large expense the first year and much less thereafter. The whole truth Is not told, b,St only a partial statement is made by Bristow."
 Ault and wiborg say they were the lowest bidders and emphatically deny "any thought of fraud of irregularity."

THE CITY OF COLOR.
New York Presents Features Absent In
European Capitals.

From the New York Commercial Advertiser.
New York has been written about from
almost every possible point of view-archl-
tectural commercial. political and social
Yet SO far as we know it has never been
properly appreciated for the one thing III
which it surpasses all the other great capt.
tails of the occidental world-and that Is
for its color. Those of us who i've mere
all our lives or who absent ourselves 1or
only brief and inconsiderable periods OF
time never know how extraordinary Is the
environment in which we have been placed
1t is only the stranger with an artisuc
sense, or the native VINO mas pe .h;. i oa,s
away, who gets the full effect of this city
of ours in it's unique prismatfc norldlty oI
hue such as WHITES no other city OF Ns
kind.
visualize from memory the great cities OF
Europe as a colorist would see them you
will be struck by the fact that each one Is
a monotone. London has the dull, dingy,
smoky hue of its own November fogs, and
as you pass along it's miles and miles OF
streets-a weller of unvariegated facades
and homely little chimney pots-your I'M
preston will be more and more that Lon
don is one great smudge, hideous and unre-
lteyed beneath a sky of Watery paleneSs
which merely accentuates little more the
dingy hue Of everything beneath It, Paris
equally represents monotone, aenca sde
gray that is neat and Clean and that ADDS
to the symmetry and harmonfousnesS OF
the whole effect, but that is seldom diversi-
fed by warmer tones. Berlin is monotone
in buff, and Rome, like Paris. for the most
part, monotone In gray. One thinks at
first of Naples city brilliant with the
hues of the south; but a little reflection VIII
show that it is not the city itself which
can be rightly SO regarded, but rather the
setting of the city as one perceives 1t from
the ship on which ne enters the glorious
bay or from the Capo di Posilipo. The In
tense blue Of the sky, the emerald of the
surrounding hills, the sparkle of the waters
that lap its crescent Shore the huge dun
slope of Vesuvius with its curling smoke
and Capri in the distance swimming
in a golden mist-these things afford an un-
forgettable dream OF perfect coloring. But
Naples itself! The place ia as comm on
place and dirty and depressing az Constan-
tinople, which also from the distance cheats
you into thinking II a colorist's paradise.
It is New York alone which. after de-

Dor embraced by the long slopes OF pi,-
lowy green fascnates the eye by the Dill
liancy and diversity of its color scheme,
The sky is as blue as that which is aIcheu
above the Mediterranean. Its sunshine Is
as bright. and it is sifted down upon the
CITY like gold dust scattered by a lavish
hand But the sky and the sunlight m ere

is no convention no conformity, no desire
for harmonious effect. The snowy Write
ness of marble and the clean gray or gran
lite are everywhere intermingled with the
cheerful buff or the warm rich reds Oh
brick Patches of green appear at the emu
of every vista. The enormous display VIII
dows of the shops are riot of blues ana
yellows and pale rose and heliotrope ana
scarlet Gliding catches and renects TIE
sunlight at every turn. Flags and stream
ers and multi-colored awnings add TO the
effect, so that every street is veritapie
spectrum Throughout the whole length
and breadth of the island city color abounds
in fecks and splashes. 1t is just bit bar.
barrie possibly, but it is also wonderful
and striking. To the sober dizziness OF
Madrid or Rome or London it is what the
Pompeiian wall paintings are to the quiet
canvases of Ha~ignies-not art, but IN,
stinct nevertheless with a sensuousness ana
a glow that stir one strangely. If you are
a native of New York perhaps you never
noticed this Yet all the same 1t is set be-
fore YOU every day. and If you will only
think of it the next time you go out or
doors you will perceive it as revelation
and will know that whatever else New
York may be, 1t is, at any rate, color
city and, as such, 1t is one that has no
rival.
