RECOGNIZED As DE FAcro GOVERNOR.

The Executive of Rhode Island Honors a
Requisition From Bulkeley
PROVIDENCE, March 27. - Governor
Bulkeley, of Connecticut, wants the body of
Thomas Garnett. Under the seal of his
State, and in accordance with all the official
forms of extradition, he has made an official
demand upon the Governor of Rhode Island
for the surrender of Garnett. Garnet has
been in the Rhode Island State prison for
three years, and he prefers to stay there
rather than to 60 to Connecticut The
requisition arrived this forenoon, and at
once gave rise to the question, Would His
Excellency recognize Bulkeley as Gov.
erner?"
To a reporter Governor Davis said: SIT
seems to Inc 1 have but one clear course.
This document bears the seal of the State of
Connecticut 1 am aware that all over the
country, and especially in Connecticut, the
opinion prevails that Mr.. Bulkeley is not
the lawful Governor, but who is to decidef
My personal opinion is that Morris is the
lawful Governor, and If his signature, with
the official seals, were attached TO these
papers, should not hesitate to surrender
Garnett As Bulkeley is in possession of
the seals, Bulkeley is Governor de facto,
and 1 do not feel that can properly decline
to recognize him as the Executive. So 1
have made up my mind to recognize the
validity OF the papers. 1 am now sending
the requisition papers to the Attorney Gen.
eral to see if they are all right"

SHE DRESSED IN COURT,
But the Judge VIII Have to Ask His Wife
to Decide the Case.

But the Judge Will Have to Ask His Wife
to Decide the Case.
NEWARK, March 27.-Mme. Chevalier
made 20 costly dresses for Mrs. Edward B.
Aymer, of East Orange, N. j., last year,
which that lady was to wear at Newport
during the summer season. On her return
Mrs. Aymer ordered two dresses from Mime.
Chevalier, one of which she was to wear at
the matrimonial reception of her sister in
Philadelphia. The dresses, however. were
made from former measurements, which, 1t
was found, were not perfect. In court yes
terday the Judge decided that the lady
should try on the dresses, and she retired to
a private room, donned one of the costumes,
and appeared in court. Judge Henry, after
q critical examination of the costume and
of the attitude for fitting Mrs. Aymer's fig-
ure, declared that he would have to bring In
his wife to decide the merits of the suit. De-
cision was reserved. Two hundred dollars
is involved in the case.
The defendant in the suit brought by
Mrs. Chevalier is reputed to be the wife OF
the wealthiest man in East Orange. Mrs.
Ayner is recognized as a leader in society.
She drove TO the court in a handsome
landau drawn by pair of gray horses and
driven by liveried coachman. Beside her
husband the plaintiff was accompanied by
her infants nurse, an expert dressmaker.
The court room was crowded with society
peoole from East Orange. Mrs. Aymer
contended that the dresses did not fit her,
and that under the arrangement that she
had made with the dressmaker she was not
supposed to pay for them.

ARTISTS IN RAIMENT.
Fourteen Partisan Designers of Ladies'
Gowns Arrive in New York.

Fourteen Partisan Designers of Ladder
Gowns Arrive in New York.
NEW YORK, March 27.-Among the
cabin passengers who arrived from Europe
to-day by the steamship Werra were Il
Parisian designers of ladies' fashionable
gowns. These artists have been engaged by
the managers of the New York and Paris
Young Ladies' Fashion Bdzar, to contribute
exclusively to the columns of that magazine,
All of them are we'll known in New York,
for their regulations have preceded them.
Mrs. Astor, the Vauderbilts, Mrs. Cleve-
land and Mrs. Marshall o. Roberts are
among the society leaders who have
worn gowns designed by these artists.
In an interview one of the de-
signers said: "Paris still leads the
world OF fashion, although Eugenis no
longer sits on the throne. Partisan gowns
have a style about them that cannot be-
equaled. That, 1 suppose, is the reason
why we have been engaged to come to
America to teach the ladies of your beauti-
full country, through the columns of the
New York and Paris Young Ladies' Fashion
Bazar, how these wonderful creations OF the
dressmaker's art are constructed. 1t Is our
business to design the handsomest and most
fashionable gowns for the different seasons
of the year. These designs will be printed
In colors, and will be accompanied by such
clear instructions as to the selection of ma
terials and the cutting and fitting of the
garments, that no woman of sense will have
the least difficulty in making perfect fitting
gowns herself.
at is a knack, a science, to fashion Q
gown that will make very small and very
heshv lady appear slim. Not one designer
out of thousand can hit upon the true
lines unless he or she makes it the study Of
lifetime. You ought to see the April
number of our magazine. We have de-
signs in it that will take the hearts Of the
ladies by storm. They do not get a new
dress made up every day, and can tell you
it is an important item to get the best maga-
zine and the very latest and most exquisite
Paris styles, and have it fashioned like the
one that is best suited to their figure"

nATTIsoN WON'T OBJECT
To the Return of the Bills Recalled by the
Legislature.

To the Return of the Bills Recalled by the
Legislature.
ESPECIAL TEL EeKAM TO THE DIsPArcH.i
HARRISBURG, March 27.-The passage
by the Legislature of concurrent resolu-
tion recalling several bills that had been
messaged to the Governor can only accom-
plish its object by his permission. He is
not averse to returning them, but if he
were to exercise the power conferred on him
by the Constitution he could disapproye
the resolution, which, under the Con-
stltution, must either be signed or
vetoed by him. The power given TO him
in this connection pointedly exhibits
the folly of the Legislature in seeking
to temporarily withdraw legislation from
him because of fear that its passage might
be imperiled. The Governor will interpose
no obstacle to the execution of the plan
adopted to get possession of the bills, but
he thinks there was no necessity for the
cautionary measure.
Some cursosity is shown to learn what the
Legislature will do when it obtains posses
sion of the bills again. When bills are re-
called under ordinary circumstances it is
because some defect has been discovered in
them which requires correction, but this
legislation is not wanted for modification.

MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
MAY BE TURNED LOOSE IF THE FLOOD
BRIDGE BILL PASSES.

The Governor, However, Is Likely to In

A Precedent for His Probable Action
Recalled-Governor Hoyt's Veto.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
HARRISBURG, March 27.-As many
counties in the State had their bridges either
destroyed or damaged by the food of 1889,
the bill having the payment of their re-
erection or reconstruction in contemp plation
is very popular with many members of the
House, who think their support of it will
give them big boost with their constitu-
ents. AS the probable cost OF the proposed
legislation to reimburse counties for money
expended in building or constructing
bridges is inquired into, the larger appear
the figures. Under its operation, claims for
State support would come from nearly every
section, and il precedent were established
it might involve. the State in the loss of
millions of dollars.
But the act which is being whirled
through the Legislature is liable to en-
counter veto if the Legislature is unwise
enough to allow it to reach the Governor.
The bill is on all fours with the one Gov
ernor Hoyt vetoed in 1881, proposing an ap-
preparation OF ,UOO to assist the Milton
school district in the re-erection of build
ings destroyed by the great fire the pre-
vious year. In disa pproving this bill,
Governor Hoyt Employed the language OF
the Constitution, which says that mo ap-
propriations. except for pensions or gratui-
ties Tor military services, shall be made for
charitable, educational or benevolent pur-
poses to any person or community"
This provision the then Governor of the
State thought conclusive as to the lack of
authority to enact such legislation, and in
his message OF dlsapproval he stated that
the debates in the Constitutional Conven-
tlon showed that "the intention of the pro-
vision was to cut off, without remedy, just
such appropriations as this" 1t was also
maintained by him that ''an appropriation
to school district is an appropriation to a
community, as the bounds of the district are
coterminous with the borough or township,
and every citizen is a beneficiary"

NEW YORYs POLICE FORCE.
What DIR. Howard Crosby Meant by His
Recent Criticism.

What DIR. Howard Crosby Meant by His
Recent Criticism.
We see the police in full harmony with
tie law-breakers, receiving pay for their
protection, and the heads of the department
fully aware of the constant defiance of law
without an effort to change the condition of
things, says DR.. Howard Crosby in letter
published week ago. In the city of New
York the police is very efficient and noble
force in any matter of murder or burglary,
but in what they esteem small matters (but
which are the germs of the great crimes)
they are wholly demoralized, and that only
because they are wretchedly governed. The
commissioners and inspectors and captains
are the blameworthy cause of all, seeking
political pre- 'erment or social ease rather
than the good of the community.
If these high officials wished to, they
could make New York the most law-abiding
city in the world. They have plenty Of
money and plenty of men for the work, but
they have no heart in it. They wait for
citizens to make complaints when they
should see the evils with their own eyes.
In a single week, by strict watchfuiness and
prompt punishment of the patrolmen who
are derelicr, they could put new life into
the force and make the city rejoice in
obeyed law.

Something About the Japanese and Chinese
Missions.
The Japanese mission Is still vacant, and

go to China, writes Frank G. Carpenter
These are two of the best missions in the
gift of the Government, though the states
men here do not seem to appreciate them.
The 1000 a year in Pekin is equal to
ST., 800 in London, and Blair will probably
save money while he is in the East. His
house will be furnished for him and he will
have servants and other extras for which
the Government will probably have to help
pay. He will have as good a cook as you
Can get anywhere outside of Paris, and he
will live better in China than he has ever
lived here. He will have plenty of good
society in the company of the other diplo-
mats who live at Pekin, and his summers
he will spend in the mountains near the
city or in taking tours about the coast in
one of our naval vessels.
The mission at Toxic, japan, is more e1-
pensive, but it is much pleasanter as far as
the intercourse with the people is concerned.
Toxic is as lively place as Washington.
1t has its court society, its clubs. and from
now on it will have its Senate and House.

Japan there every winter. There are sew

Some of the native bookstores have the

goes on to congratulate himself on his posi-
tion and its advantages for the study of the
Chinese language and the philosophy and
questions of the far East. He predicts an
increase in trade between China and the
United States. and evidently has a high
idea OF the abilities of bis Celestial brothers.

VIENNA, March 27.-A dispatch from
Kufstein, a fortified town of the Tyrol, on
the Bavarian frontier. brings news of a
murder by Malta conspirator. From the
few details received from the scene of the
tragedy, it appears that a well-known mer-
chant of Kufsteip, who was upon the point
of entering q railroad car at that place,
was suddenly confronted by an Italian, who
plunged stiletto in the merchants breast,
killing him almost instantly
The Italian, who turns out to be work
man employed in the neighborhood, was
promptly arrested, and from the investiga-
cation subsequently, made by the police
authorities, it seems that the italian was a
member of the Malta Society, and that he
had killed the merchant in mistake tor a
compstriot whom he had been detailed to
kill for some real or fancied wrong done to
the Malta Society, and for which the
prisoners compatriot had been condemned to
death by one of the Mafa's secret tribunals.
The murder of the merchant of Kufsteid has
created considerable excitement, and there
is feeling of dangerous Indignation grow
Ing against the Italian secret society.
