A Few Hints From the Latest Designs for
Evening Wear.
Evening dresses, imported for dinners
and dances at autumn house parties, and
in preparation for the gay winter season,
are in most varied styles. There are
special models for debuntantes' gowns,
others particularly designed for girls in
their second or third season, and still
others Of great elabOrateness for the ele-
CANT young matrons who now so largely
dominate drawing rooms. One feature
which is very general is that Of having
the skirt Of different fabric from
the waist fashion that will be almost
as prevalent as in gowns worn during
the day.
While decollete corsages, cut down
square or round, will be most worn,
there will also be many high waists of
dinner gowns. This is due to the great
use Of chiffon and to its becOmingness
for waists. High cOrsages are boon to
slight women, and among them there are
many draped waists with folds going
around the figure and Others with full
double rufles crossing the chest. On the
other hand, for stout figures the pointed
low waist is revived, fitted with darts in
the old way and drawn down to give the
effect Of length and slenderness. Many
new fancies are seen in sleeves. Some
are hid in great bow, through which
the arm passes; others have wired loops
curving over the arm; but the single full
puff, medium long or to the elbow, well
stiffened, sometimes draped, sometimes
covered with lace, remains the favorite.
A band of fur, roses set in a row, OF
of drawn tucks are the pretty finish fol
the low neck. Lace is much used, but
more fatty, and in applications rather
than berthas, though there are still many
epaulettes and revers Of lace. The skir1
is extremely full at the foot, laring from
the closely fitted top and falling in shor
godets, in what the London dressmaker
call the pen-wiper shape-an ugly nam
for very graceful skirt. For dancing
and debutantes' dresses the skirt JUS
touches the floor in the back, and tn
longest skirts yet shown are only demi
trains though they flare to six yards il
width at the t.-Harper's Bazaar.

TIE PROBLEM SOLVED.
How the Empty Pews in Our Churches
May be FILLED.

How the Empty Pews in Our Churches
May be FILLED.
Noticing the increasingly large attend
ance upon the descriptions OF foreign
travel and biographical sketches Of noted
persOnages illustrated with stereOptlcOn
and views, it seems that this experiment
has solved the problem ofhOw to enlist the
interest Of the masses and fill our empty
church sittings especially on Sunday
evening. May l suggest that If our
ministers will put stereOpticOn IN
their heads with a calcium light in 1T
and put some Of the live questions Of the
day on exhibition there will soon be a
call for more sittings than our churches
can furnish? Useful as has been the line
of sermonizing in the past history OF the
church, have we not to too great an ex-
tent been threshing over old straw, dis
cussing questions that have long ceased
to have any vital interest for society,"
Has there not been to much morallzlne
and theorizing, and forgetting Of th'
Weightier, more practical questions tha
concern character and conduct, ou
social obligations, and our political re
lations to the body polite, until in prac
tice, to very considerable extent
morals and business and politica
methods are divorced from each other?
Now that the stereopticon has justfie
itself as a means of filling our empt
churches and bringing men under tn
influence of religious thought and teach
ing let us hope that in some form it ha
come to stay. *"*

RESPONSIBLE FOR BRouKWAY,

The bill empowering the Governor to
remove the Superintendent OF reforma-
tory and other institutions except State
prisons and iunatic asylums was killed
In the Senate yesterday.
The reasons given for the defeat were
sound and sufficient. The bill was well
known to be intended only to reach the
Brockway case. and the Senate declared
1t a scandal to the State and an outrage
on humanity that the Elmlra infamy
should be allowed to go unchecked. But
II was insisted that the Governor now
has the power In his hands to remove
the managers, thus reaching the brutal
Superintendent, and that 1t would be far
clcai to remove Brockway and let the
managers remain.
This puts the responsibility where II
belongs, on Governor Flower. and the
people of the State will understand that
Brockway is only retained In his ill-used
power through the grace and favor OF
the Governor.

FEAR OF PARK HURST.
It Makes the Eldridge Street Com
mander's Life Miserable.
Police Captain Cortright Begging to
30 Transferred.
Taking No Chances and Working
His Men to the Utmost.

That DR.. Parkhurst and the agents OF
his society are making the lives OF po-
lice captains anything but pleasant ones
is emphatically exemplified through GER
tain facts which leaked out at Police
Headquarters this morning.
Capt. Moses w. Cortright, OF the Ed
ridge street station, 1t is well known,
has been before the PolNe Commission
ers earnestly requesting them to re-
lieve him of the command of the Ed
ridg street station. The Captain has
made the request on several different
occasions. but as yet the favor has not
been granted.
The Commissioners have not been able
10 agree as to who they should transfer
to this station to relieve Capt. Cort-
wright. Two captains from uptown pre-
cincts have been thought OF who are
among the class OF precinct command
ers known as cautious men. whose anxi-
ETY. to enforce the law has been, and
now is. the means Of keeping their sub
ordinates in hot water.
Nicholas BROOKS. OF the East One
Hundred and Twenty-sixth street sta
ton ton; and and joseph p. Eak!ns. Of the
rated among this class of commanders.
The Eldrtdge street command Is the one
Of which Capt. William s. Devery was
in charge when DIR. Parkhurst got after
him and secured his Indictment by a
Grand Jury on a charge Of failing to
suppress disorderly houses, resulting in
an acquittal for Devery at his trial re-
Gently.
In due time Capt. Cortright was or
dered from a precinct in the Annexed
District to the E,dridge street station.
A policeman of his command said to-
day:
capt. Cortright is making life miser-
able for us In this precinct. He Is a
conscientious man and afraid OF getting
into trouble through DR.. Parkhurst's
agents, consequently he lets nothing go
by that has the slightest appearance Of
being unlawful. l don't believe you'll
find dive of any grade open In the
precinct. and as to fruit and other sorts
of vendors, the old man has given US
the strictest orders regarding them.
I'VE policemen are Just about run to
death carrying out his orders. and al
though Capt. Cortright Is a good enough
fellow. he's got no nerve. and we'd be
glad II he was sent away uptown again
II hear that either Eakins or Brooks
may be sent here soon, but they're not
much better. However. we might fool
them. but we can't fool Cortright.''

SENATOR HILL NUM-
Will Not Say Whether He Is
Coaching Gov. Flower.
Refuses to Answer the Criticisms
Of Newspapers.
All Public Questions, He Says, lie
Answers In Public.

Senator David b. Hlli IL at the Hotel
NOrmGniie to-day. He came down from
Albany last night and says he will re.
main In town probably over Sunday and
| then return to Washington.
During his recent stay In Albany the
senior Senator Is credited with having
coached the Governor as to the manner
In which he should dispose OF the Re-
fern bills which have been brought up
for final action by the Legislature within
the past day or two.
1t is quite clear that Gov. Flowers
veto OF the Ballot Reform bill, which
was made public before the bill had
reached him, and which had evidently
been prepared some time in advance,
bore the marks OF Senator HITS fine
Italian hand. and they even say that the
Senator was the sole author OF that doc
ument.
However that may be. Senator Hill
was as mum as the Sphinx when an
Evening WORLD reporter called upon
him this morning at the Normandie and
gave him an opportunity to express his
views on legislative matters at Albany.
Have you anything to say In regard
TO the Governors veto OF the Ballot
bill?" he was asked
Il never discuss any public measures
with an engaging smile. When / have
anything to say on questions OF public
interest say It publicly and try to ex-
press my views thoroughly and clearly"
rs 1t true that you prepared that veto
message. Senator, as has been stated?
Il never reply to fippant criticism in
the newsp,pers," replied the Senator,
calmly. You must excuse me-"
'Will you say whether or not you are
opposed to the other reform measures
the Leglslatu
81 can say nothing more than I have
already said. and l do not wish to be
quoted as saying anything upon that sub
win you give your opinion with re-
gard 20 the future OF the Tariff bill in
the Senator
Il have nothing further to say upon
my opinions fully in regard to the
measure. and Its future rests with the
Senate"
All further attempts to draw the SEN
ator out were futile. He refused to an
swer any OF the statements which have
been publicly made with regard to his
a result OF his recent visit to Albany.
II am going TO be in New York for
day or two" he said in conclusion. ION
some private law business. which will
occupy all my time. l expect to be back
in Washington again on Monday"
1t is rumored that an important con-
OF the leaders of the local Democracy
will take place during his stay in town.
but the Senator received no visitors of
prominence this morning. The reporter
found him seated on one of the lounges
In the front corridor reading the morn
ing papers, Of which he had purchased a
large stock.

THE RAPID TRANSIT BILL.

The Rapid Transit bill as passed
names the Mayor and Comptroller. with
William Steinway. John II. Starin. Seth
Low. John Clahin. Alexander +. Orr and
the President OF the Chamber OF Com
msrce. Commissioners OF Rapid Transit.
The question OF loaning the city's
credit to the enterprise is to be submit
ted to vote OF the people.
This Is better than a bipartisan COM
mission. 1t would have been death to
the scheme to make 1t political affair.
The Commissioners named are all we'll
known citizens. and at least three OF
them are practical men of affairs. No
one can object to the character OF the
Commission.
The Governor will probably approve
the bill. and the city may get rapid
transit, independently OF the Elevated
Railroad monopoly, at last. But It Is q
lcrg way off yet.

Ing robbed his uncle. benjamin Cox, of
Ill West Slxtleth' street. Thomas was
arrested once before for stealing IS from
his grandmother about six months ago.
Yesterday he called al his uncle's and
spent the day In the house. While he
was there his uncle went to sleep on the
lounge.
Thomas played with a black and tan
terrier for time, and finally. when he
was ready to leave. he tried to wake
up his uncle to bid him goodnight.
Cox was heavy sleeper, and did not
awaken easily. The boy then took a
silver watch and chain from his uncle 8
waistcoat pocket and hurried out of the
house.
Cox. on being awakened by his wife,
discovered the loss OF his timepiece and
knew at once that his nephew was the
thief.
This morning he called on the boy and
charged him with the theft. Tommy
admitted II. and said that while he was
on his way home with 1t a boy named
Peter Dunn, who used to live in his
house, took the watch and chain from
him and gave him 10 cents for 1t.
Justice Burke committed the boy
thief to the care OF Agent Barley, of
Nh Gerry's Society. He will probably
be committed to an institution.

DRINK A FAMlLYS RUIN.
Five of the Children Found Drunk
and Sent TO Institutions.

A sad state of a family's affairs was
brought out by Justice Martin in the
Tombs Police Court this morning.
At 1l.30 O'Clock Wednesday night De-
tective Hahn found Mary Jennings in
an almost helpless intoxicated condi-
tion at Houston street and the Bowery.
In her arms she carried her four-year-
old daughter. Margaret, a bright and
pretty child.
When the case was called this morn
ing Jennings and his daughter, Flor
ence, eighteen years old, came into
court. Both appear ed respectable. but
they told of a sad state Of affairs that
led back to 1887. Agents King and Bah
cock had the records of the Gerry So
ciety, an dthey told a sad tale. show
Ing that five Of the children had been
found drunk at different times and COM
mitted to institutions.
Jennings said his wife had not drank
anything in seven months. and that
she had gone to Crosse Point Rock
land County, where her parents lived
and where she got good attention in a
home. AS he told the story of the
downfall OF his family the tears streams
ed down his cheeks, and his daughter
cried like child. Both pleaded that
the woman be given another chance.
The Justice finally consented to allow
her to go upon the agreement OF both
that she would be taken back to Crosse
Point

TO QUEENSTOWN FOR STA.
Latest Move in the Transatlantic
Rate War.

The new freight and immigrant ship
Wittekind, of the North German Lloyd
line. Is expected to arrive tomorrow.
She will make the first trip on the
Queenstown route May s. and will be
followed by the Bohemia, Of the Ham,
burg American line. on May II.
This move Is the latest in the war of
the continental companies against the
English companies. The sending of
ships to Queenstown Is the first Invasion
of British territory, and what measures
the English lines will adopt to offset
the anticipated effect is wondered at.
At the office of the Cunard line to-
day II was said that no instructions had
been received. The continental lines are
busy sending out circulars to agents an
nouncing rate of sl4 to Queenstown.
and 1t is expected that they will capture
all the business at these figures, as it
is far below the rate Of the other COM
panies.
The Thingvalla line. which has been
looked upon as the ally of the British
lines, on its last two outgoing steam
ers has taken steerage passengers to
Hamburg for $40 This was done to as
sist the Cunard lile in the rate war
being waged against the Continental
pool. 1t wac stated this morning, how
ever. that the Hecla, which arrived to-
day and sails one week hence, had
hardly enough traffic to warrant
carrying steerags passengers to Scandi-
navian ports and then transporting
them by rail to Hamburg at so small
figure
