Especial New York Correspondence
Generally speaking, the toilets and
costumes this season repeat in cut, out
line and effect, the modes Of the past
winter. There Is one change noticeable
that is certainly not for the better. and
that is the very perceptible lcngthen-
ing OF the skirts Of street gowns. 1t is
to be fervently hoped that we are not
drifting back into the untidy and un-
healthy fashion Of street sweeping, but
It looks very much like it when we are
told that among certain Partisan lead
ers OF fashion, not few demi-trained
dresses are being adopted. which. upon
the promenade are caught up in one
hand as they were when this fashion
was 50 universal few years ago.
At present, however, the popular
street skirts are just graceful length.

LATER
Death Of SEN tor Beck.


WASHINGTON, May 3.-Senator James
B. Beck dropped dead in the Baltimore
4 Potomac station to-day. He had just
arrived from New York. and was ao-
companied by his daughter. Mrs. Good
loe. wife of Maj. Goodloe, of the United
States marine corps. He got OF the
train with the rest Of the passengers
and walked with his daughter the en-
tire length Of the platform and through
the gate leading to the station proper.
After passing into the station the sena-
tor and his daughter stopped and were
joined by his private secretary, who had
brought carriage to take them home.
A few words were exchanged with re-
gard to the care Of baggage, when the
senator suddenly turned pale, and, with
the remark II feel dizzy" fell into the
arms Of his companions. Physicians
were summoned but the Senator was
dead before they arrived. Heart dis
ease was the cause of death.
James B. Beck was native Of Scot
land, having been born at Dumfries-
shire on the 18th Of February. 1922. Fe
received an academic education in Scot
land, and was graduated as lawyer at
Transylvania university, Lexington,
KY, in March, 1876. Mr.. Beck contin-
ued to reside in that city, where he de-
voted himself to the practice of his pro-
fcssion. He never held Office until
elected. in 1865, to the Fortieth con-
gress from the Seventh district of Ken
lucky by q majority OF 6,664. He rep
resented this district four terms and in
1877, was elected to the u. s. Senate,
which position he held until his death.
THE great demonstration OF the labor
ing classes for shorter hours took place

procession and 800, 600 gathered at will.
This is a very conservative calculation,
however, and some observers accus-
toned to gauge large crowds do not hes.
itate to assert that fully 100000 peo-
pie participated in the demonstration.
There wero $50 bands Of music in the
procession. Everything was quiet and
orderly.

An ALLIANCE MANS VIEWS.

! Hon. d. ID. Beema3, represe ntaJ,v from

ais Views on the constitutional conyep-

the convention ould give 10 the people
better g0vernment one Of secartV to
al classes and races and by which yio-
lence and injustice and fraud may be
eliminated. The delegates TO this con .
veniion should DO our best men, The
people from each COUNTY should place

like scramble for seats in this body.

Ut the common good every preference
and prejudice, and at once enter upon
q generous rivalry IA how best the vel.
fare OF he entire people could be subs
served. Aud he believes with he RE-
PORTER, that Concession may have to
be made, and they should be made and
cheerfuly if 1t be found that the public
interests demand 1t. AS TO his other
views, We quote him:
1t seems that our judicial system
should be materially changed, made
mole efficient, and probably this could
be done without an increase of exoendi-
tnres, aad possibly with less cost than
at present employed.
Restriction OF suffrage, 1t is believed,
eau be effected without doing injustice
10 any OF our people, while tho public
W uld questionably be bones
flied. The making of b tax-receipt the
only passport to the b2llot- box, and the
abolition OF the present registration sys-
tenn would be acceptable to the people.
The legislative department needs
change. Too much, attention. and ex-
pense attach to local and corporate mat
ers, which might and could be as safe
y done by the courts or some other con-
