a tailor-made cloth dress seems 70 be most

London, which has the honor Of origi-
mating tailor-made attire for ladies', and its
general features include jacket-bodlce
cut short upon the hips. but whose edges
fell little lower IN front; a buttoned
waistcoat, fully revealed beneath the
jacket, the latter being invariably thrown
open. and a narrow skirt made with a6so.:

As to the v;eiting-cown: That should

terials. Still it must be more elaborate
than tho mere street-gown. At present
silk is frequently the tapric used for one OF
these visiting costume, and ped,t de S5ie or
else armure, is II be preferred. The dress
should be styhshly made. Some of the
piquant jacket effects --zouayes.. Russian,
or Spauish-are applicable. And then tho
trimming should be an re extensive.
One very stylish-looking visiting costume
recently noticed was in Princesse form, OF

the maximum fuincss now permitted, and
were of dark-grean velvet. the Princesse
looped on one sido over a side panel OF the

LONDON, June 23.-The house of

occasion Of the administration of the
peers oath to the newly created Duke
of Clarence (Prince Albert Victor OF
Wales). The queens message to the
lords, formally announcing the be-

prince and establishing his status in
the order of precedence, was read, by
which it is ordered that he take preced-
ence after the Duke of Connaugnt, but
before the Duke of Albany. The pro-
cession then entered, headed by Sir
James Drummond, gentleman usher of
the black rod, followed by the Duke Of
Clarence with his sponsors, the Prince
of Wales, his father. and the Duke of
Edinburgh, his uncle, in ducal robes.
After the usual formalities the Duke of
Clarence took the peers oath and
signed the rolls. He was then con-

BoATMEN BLOWN TO PIECES.
Four Killed by the Explosion Of a
Tugs Boilers.

NEW YORK, June 22.-A terrible ex-
plosion occurred early this morning in
Brooklyn, by which four lives were
lost. The tug boat Alice E. Crue,
owned by Thomas O'Brien, of O'Brien
Bros, of 40 South street, this city, and
which had been moored at the foot of
Van Brunt street, Brooklyn, was blown
to pieces at her dock by the explosion
OF the boiler. Asleep on the tug at the
time were Capt. Oscar W. Squires,
George Rogers, the cook, and deck
hand. whose name is not known. They
were killed outright. The fireman had
evidently attempted to get up steam,
and for some unexplained reason, prob
ably a defect in the boiler, the explo-
sion occurred. He is supposed to
have. been killed also, for he is
missing. Melthen Bailey, deck
hand. of 100 Richard street, received
lacerated wound of the hand and was
scaIdeC. The ballast scow Lime Rock,
which was lying alongside the tug, had
her side torn out and went to the bot
tom. 1t is supposed that the watchman
on board, whose name is not known,
went down with her. The report of the
explosion was heard long distance,
and brought crowds of people to the
! scene. Mr.. O'Brien, one of the owners
Of the tug, says the loss will be about
$500. Parts of the boiler and tubes of
tao tug were blown clear over the ware
hpuse ou the dock. The body of the
captain was blown on to the deck of the
ship James Nesmith. His right leg was
blown off. and was hanging by the
sirlews. His left arm hung by shreds
to the shoulder. The cooks body was
blown on the ballast ScOw. The pilot,
Matthew Bartley, was severely injured,
and was removed to his home in an un-
conscious condition. The 6reman's
.hody was not recovered.

No Arrests to Be Made Until the

Is Heard From.
II guess the government don't want
Ed Stevens" said Minneapolis man
to GLOBE reporter. "lf they want
him he can be very easily found" he
resumed. Il saw him this morning. ,and
he said he was coming to st. Paul this
afternoon and deliver himself up to
Marshall Daggett if he wants him." but
Mr.. Stevens did nothing of the sort.
When told of this Mr.. Daggett SAID he
did not want Stevens. "1f had wanted
him [ would have found him." he con-
tinued warmly. lone would think the
government had tried in vain to arrest
half the people of Minneapolis II there
was any credence to be placed III the
screedS of the papers OF that city,.
AS matter of fact, there is no desire
to arrest either Mr.. Stevens or the other
enumerators. At least not until the
United States district attorney con-
descends to issue the process for arrest
for conspiracy, as petitioned by the
citizens committee. There is no OBJECT
in serving the warrants that are now IN
the hands of the United States mar
shall. 1t could effect nothing toward
bringing out the facts, because Mr.:
Hay would demand a continuance OF
the preliminary hearing a couple OF
months, and no prosecution of the case
can be made without his actively en-
gaging in it; unless, indeed, the United
States attorney general assigns the
office to another attorney. No one
| cares to prosecute, and, therefore. no
further arrests will be made until the
result of the efforts of the delegation to
Washington is known.

mittee.
The st. Paul citizens executive COM
mittee met in the mayors parlors at
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. After an
hours consultation an adjournment was
had until to-day. By agreement, moth
ing was divulged. 1--WE Fdid nothing
for publication" said William Pitt
Murray. Mayor Smith also agreed that
none of the proceedings should be made
public. A conference was afterwards
had with Judge Mcmillan, and this,
like the other, is secret locked within
the breasts of those present.
Judge Flandrau said that the com
mittee is more than ever determined to
sift the thing to the bottom. No stone
will be left unturned, and. if possible,
the sheets sent to Washington by Super
visor Davenport will be returned for
careful Veritication. This will be con-
Quoted by United States census inspect
ors, and not trusted to enumeratorS.
The committee is Zealously preparing
for prosecutions for conspiracy. Ihey
are satisfied that the charges now pend
ing will result in nothing satisfactory.
There is no desire to punish the boys
who were arrested. They we're clearly
not the instigators of the padding in
trigue, and only did the bidding Of their
superiors. 1t was this feeling that in
fuenced Mr.. Lawler not to make a more
vigorous and aggressive fight for an
immediate hearing last Friday.
Before | have done with this | guess
the people who criticised my course
and censured me for instituting the
proceedings will be ready to congratu-
late me for exposing an infamous con-
spiracy against the federal laws" eX-
claimed Mr.. Murray last evening. II
am in the fight in earnest and | am 60
| ing to stick"
Gen. Sanborn's even temper was in no
manner ruffled by the attacks of the
Minneapolis press. He said he consid-
cred that he was only doing his duty as
a citizen of the United States. He felt
convinced that a gigantic fraud had
been perpetrated, and it is the duty OF
every American to aid in its detection
and the punishment of the conspirators,
no matter who they may be.

Hon. William Pitt Murray was in any
thing but mild frame of mind yester-
day afternoon when he learned that the
bags containing the papers by which he
hoped to incriminate the alleged Mime
apolis census padders, had passed out
of the control of United States Mar
shal Donahower. His language GER
tainly was more emphatic than euph-
onious. Ghe committee of citizens have
been acting under the belief that the
marshal had the evidence under his
control, as was evidenced by Judge
Flandrau's speech Saturday, when, IN
the district attorneys Office, he indicated
that the marshal and his deputies would
be held to a strict account for its safe
keeping.
This naturally set Marshal Donahower
thinking in this line: eff anything
should happen to the evidence people
would blame me-" A great injustice
would thereby be done Mr.. DonahoWer,
who, to a GLOBE reporter, said:
"The fact is, the evidence passed out
of my control. or that of my deputies,
