producer cannot maintain the present price OF

Thcy Get Together with Very Good Effect
In Princess Gowns.
There Is o great deal to be said In favor
of tho princess gown. 1t is graceful,
never common looking and has an air Of
exclusive fashion which pertains to few
other garnents. It Is seldom that an arti-
clio Of attire Is both fashionable and artis-
tic. Fashion usually shuns the studio, Or
mangles and garbles its effects beyond rec
ognition, as was shown in the Greek dra-
peries, combined with starched collar and
cuffs and French corset, which were quite
the mode three or four years ago. occa-
sionally, however, she joins forces with
art, although half unwillingly and for a
very brief time. The Josephine styles not
yet passed out OF date are o fair example
of her spasmodic good taste. The prin-
cess modes arc another, although she
spoils these by insisting on the compressed
waist as the proper form for setting them
off. In medieval times the princess gown
was the accepted dress of women. 1t was
admirably fitted to the natural figure with

Said to he Therein a Smiling Ethfo-
plan.
Special to the JERSEY City Neacs.
TRENTON, May Is, 1S94.-Both branches of
the Legislature adhered to the programme
adopted at yesterday mornings conference
and passed nothing but the bills vetoed by
the Governor and the measures which were
introduced Wednesday evening. One of
these was Mfr McEwan's bill, which was en-
titled IN act t6aregdiate the custody of
prisopeEs inJljails e6 .s ~ shs Of the first
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES @xpfained, as stated
in thesd despatched fAdfaRyy, that the bill
was merelyIfor the purpose Of correcting an
error in the act which had for its object the
relieving of Mr.. Robert Davis of his ardu-
GUS duties as Tailor of Hudson County.
As the act now stands it Is claimed it
abolishes the penitentiary and revives the
old workhouse.
The bill was not printed, and, of course,
the only guarantee the members had that it
was only what Mr.. McEwan declared it to
be was the simple word of that gentleman.
Mr.. Hugh A. Kelly, whose relations with
Mr.. Davis are such that he felt obliged to
make an exhibition of his servility, made a
great outcry to have the bill laid over until
the members could have an opportunity to
look 1t over. Several democrats joine | him
IN general PRINCIPLES, as there was not one
Of them who suspected that the bill did any
thing except what Mr.. McEwan said it
did.
1t transpired, however, that all were de-
ceived including MIR. McEwan for the bill
contains one of the prettiest little schemes
which has yet been produced in this Legisla-
ture Of schemers. After r~emedylng the de-
feet in the law as experienced BY Mr.. Nc
Evan the bill goes Oh to provide that the
Sheriff shall receive thirty cents per day for
feeding each prisoner, which is the same
amount upon which Mr. Davis has grown SO
fat. The bill was one Of the measures agreed
upon in the caucus and it went ~throughsthe
House. When it was brought up in the Sen
ate Mr.. Daily discovered the Colonels grin
ming little ethiopian lurking within the
measure, and forthwith jumped upon it with
all his might and main. It afforded him an
excellent text to indulge in another of his
eulogies of his little Boss and score the Re-
publicans for their hypocrisy and duplicity.
He succeeded in having the bill laid over for
amendment.
Sheriff Toffey and Prosecutor Winfield
both telegraphed TO the Republican Senators
not to let Daily amend the bill at all. There
is a grave suspicion that the Hudson Senator
has some foxy scheme in mind for keeping
Davis in the office, even though he may have
resigned.
