CASUAL COSTUMES
SLATED FOR FALL

look casual" is the latest slo-
gan being broadcast to women who
are pre-occupied with the question
of what to wear for early fall. AL
though both tailored tweeds and
softly-feminine garments will con-
tinue to be style-right for particular
occasions, it's the casual costume
that is slated for high-style accept
ance.
Suits are always an early-fall
favorite but they were never better
calculated to make women want to
cast aside their summer clothes. AL
ready the shops are beginning to
display scores of casually cut mod
els ranging from classic two-piece
ensembles complete with blouse and
topcoat or fur cape.

Cuba Independent

On May 81 of 1886 new treaty
between the United States and
Cuba was ratified. This treaty
superseded that of May %. 1903,
and abandoned the right of the
United States to intervene in the
internal affairs of Cuba under
the so-called Plat amendment.
Under the authority of this
treaty the United States had inter-
vened on five occasions. The re-
public of Cuba is therefore COM
pletely independent of the United
States.

NEW YORK, May 5.-Apathy OF
buyers let the stock market sag today
with losses ranging from fractions to
3 or more points.
Business news continued reassuring,
but offerings met only half-hearted
support. Tickers were silent for
minutes at a time as the season
dragged on.
Rails and utilities seemed most re-
sistant to the decline, the latter buoyed
bit by reports of a contrasea-
sonal increase in electric power pro-
duction last week.
Better action of foreign markets
was noted in board rooms, but there
was little disposition toward commit
ments pending tomorrow's settlement

Bond, particularly in the United
States Government department, were
consistently higher and most COM
modities held an improved tone, fol-
lowing the example abroad.
Among stocks Allis Chalmers was
down as much as at one time folloW-

loss was shaved somewhat.
Transfers were around 100000.
