LONDON'S
LATEST
FASHIONS
Velvet a Mighty Factor.
The Cult of the
Corset

London, Sept. 2.-After visiting
some of the great manufactures of
England, and calling on the leading
modistes and drapers in the Regent
and Bond street regions, where l
found goodly display, ! will write
you my impressions of the coming
autumn fashions.
Many Of the modes are, as II were.
only in the bud, but velvet is unques-
tionably a fabric that must be taken
into account in any discussion OF the
subject Of Milady's fall costumes. It
has assumed an importance most uRu.
sual, not only with regard to evening
and calling gowns, but is constantly
growing in popularity for tailor
frocks.
One of the handsomest velvet
gowns have seen and which l have
been enabled to illustrate for you is
one made by Ernest for Julia Marlow,
of black Nonpareil velvet magnificent
ly appliqued in cream lace outlined
with black and gold sequins.
Luckily for her whose dress allow.
ance is not lavish Nonpareil velvet is
not an extravaganza but, owing to
the increasing skill of the famous
dyers j. & j. M worral, through
whose kindness had a peep at the
newest designs before they were seen
in the shops. velvet has become
thoroughly practical and compara-
lively inexpensive fabric. One of the
most beautiful designs was in polka
dot OF imperial blue--a revival ofthe
shade so much admired by Napoleon,
and universally worn during the time
OF his prosperity Particularly suited
to this fabric is the Empire model so
much affected by the English wo-
man for evening wear. and while no
two nations are enough alike individ.
ually or collectively for all the modes
OF one to suit the modes OF another,
yet there is no pretty style that the
well dressed American woman cannot
gracefully make her own.
The cult of the corset Is so much
studied here at the present time. and
justly so as It's importance Is para
mount where the AZ OF frock or the
symmetry OF the figure is considered
| was so much interested TO find th'
C. b. A. la spirite. as popular here as
Il is In America, which Is one OF the
many successes Of tho American In
vaslon.
Among the various notes made OF
the coming modes. feather hat shapes
form one distinct item. They are
lmade entirely OF the short body feath
ers say for instance OF the grey pig
con with a chic looking border oI
black feathers round the brim, and {
strap OF the same jauntily holding M
one side.
Another charming model was 4
cream lace blouse over white silk
daintily cross-barred with cream vel
vet ribbon.
The Monte Carlo coat will still be
popular this autumn and winter. The
length here is three-quarters. the pro
portions 'roomy'. The sleeves are al
so roomy, with deep cuffs.
| leave London for Paris tomorrow
and in my next letter will give you
my impressions Of the Partisan
fashions

MURPHY on HIGH LIQUOR TAN.
Death TO Republican votes Down Here.
Says Tammany chief.

Leader Murphy Of Tammany Hall said
yesterday of Gov. Odell's proposition to
raise the liquor tax from $500 to u 400 In
New York city:
1T IL only another evidence to the voters
OF New York that they are TO be compelled,
II possible. to pay the taxes OF the upstate
districts. Let them keep on with this
programme and there will be mighty few
Republicans left in New York city"
President Fritz Lindinger Of the Liquor
Dealers Association said that the pro-
posed change in the law would drive 20
many dealers out Of business that the In
creased revenue which the Governor figures
on would not materialize. He estimated
that il would put 5000 saloons out OF bust
ness in Greater New York.
President Lindinger said that Gov. Odell
had told n committee Of the association
in Albany two weeks ago that there would
be no excise legislation at this session.
The gross excise receipts Of the city for
the year 1902 amounted to e5,5eS, eel. There
licenses o247 .os2, leaving a net revenue Of
IS ,3lS,27s.
The number OF licenses in existence
last year were New York county, 1854;
Kings county. 3,769; Queens county, 200,
and Richmond county, ~. making a total
Of u .667 licenses.
The revenue from the tax lie applied to
the general fund for the reduction OF taxa
ton. with the exception Of $500 900 for the
fund OF the Fire Department; per cent.
for the Teachers Retirement Fund, and
per cent, for the College Of the City OF
New York

NEW AUTOMOBILE BILL.


ALBANY, March Ex-senator Bailey in
troduced a bill to-day regulating auto
mobiles which in some respects tries to
meet the wishes of the Automobile Club Of
America, a. il embodies some OF the sugges-
tons made by Townsend Scudder Of the
Farmers Committee OF Safety OF Long
Island and A. r. Shattuck OF the Automo-
bile Club. One OF the most important
amendments is that all chauffeurs operating
a machine of moro than one horse power
must be licensed and pass an examination
as to their competency. The State En-
gineer Ia to appoint an examiner at a salary
OF q, 900 year. and IS Is to DO charged for
each license issued.
The bill further provides that boards
OF trustees OF Incorporated villages and the
highway commissioners OF towns may
adopt ordinances regulating the speed
OF automobiles within one mile OF any
post Office. No speed ordinance so adopted
shall be enforceable unless the limits within
which the speed Ia TO he regulated are indi-
Gated by an appropriate sign. No auto
mobile II 10 pass any person walking or
driving at a greater rate Of speed than eight
miles an hour; or pass a public school
during school hours. or a church on Sunday
faster than ten miles an hour. All auto
mobiles are TO be registered with the Secre-
tary Of State.
Senator Bailey does not think the Auto
mobile Club OF America will accept this bill,
and thinks a conferepoe will be held which
will result In bill being framed that will
satisfy both parties.

Elsberg. Bracket and Zion n. Brown. the
three Republican insurgents. practically
held up the Republican caucus in the Ex-
ecutjve chamber last night. The tax
propositions were discussed for a long
time before Senator Malby insisted that
they should caucus upon the propositions
suggested. This was agreed TO. hut not
before Senator Flsberg had announced
that he would not agree to abide by the
action Of the caucus on the tax measures
unless the Republican Senators would sup
port his bill legislating the New York city
Coroners out OF Office, THIS bill is aimed
at tho New York County Republican or
ganization. Senator Bracket backed Sem
aior Elsberg As a result It was said to-
day that there was tacit agreement among
the Republicans Senators that the bill
should pass the Senate.
Senator Marshall was inclined to kick
against abiding by caucus action on the
Mort gage Tax bill, saying he was elected
last fall because Of his vote at the last
session against this measure, but he sue
cumbed TO the inevitable. Upon the ex-
else question Senator Hill OF Buffalo was
the only one TO take a stand against II.
He will not take a positive stand upon the
question until after he returns from Buffalo
on Monday. Senator George A. Davis Of
Erie would have sided with Senator Hill,
but just now he Is more welded TO the
Canal Improvement proposition than to
excise laws. and was compelled
o abide by the action OF the caucus for !
ear his Canal Improvement bill would be
,laughtered. 1

pedient TO Adopt Rule Limiting Debate.
WASHINGTON. March ii.-During the open
session Of the Senate at noon, which lasted
ten minutes, Mr.. Allison offered an impor-
tant resolution. which was referred to the
Committee to Audit and Control the Con-
tingent Expenses Of the Senate. The reso-
luton directs the Committee on Rules to 60
over the standing rules Of the Senate and
consider whether or not they need revision.
and especially whether Il Ia expedient that .
rule be adopted limiting debate In the SEN
ate. The COMMITTEES 10 auth orised 10 sit
during the recess Of the Senate. 10 employ
a stenographer. and report a. soon a. prao-
ticable after the meeting Of the Senate nett
December.
Mr.. Hoar made the observation. after
the resolution was referred. that IL might
be well for the Committee on Rules TO con-
slider the question Of employing some con-
stitutional lawyer Of frst-rate ability 70
prepare manual Of parliamentary law
FOR the use OF the Senate. He thought
such a manual was necessary and that IL
should be prepared with the highest de-
gree Of care and skill attainable, no that
the work would rank with the best refer
ence books now in Use. The person pre-
pairing such a work should. in Mr.. Hoar's
opinion, receive a handsome salary. say
from 600 to s75 900 per year.
Several messages from the President
were received, and the Senate then, on
motion Of Mr.. Cullom. went into executive
session.
