of Reginald C. Vanderbilt of New York,
the youngest eon of the late Cornelius C.

as well as an early beginning of the social

riage .took place In a private villa, It lacked
much at . the splendor which usually at
tends a church function. About 150 guests
were present.
It was a white wedding. The decora
tions were white on. a background of green;
the bridesmaids' were gowned In white and
picture hats. The bridegroom, his best
man. and tho ushers wore white puff cravats
and white boutonnlerres, and the bride, of
course,, was attired in the . purest white.
The weather sulked, and. Instead ot a
parkllng .JayJ.,lt.was gray and cold, with
a tntsty northeast Wind blowing a gale.
For an hour . before the ceremony an
orchestra played am Just at aoon the meas
ured strains of the Lohengrin march sig
naled the approach of the bridal party.
Rev. Father Meenan, attended by two altar
boys, previously bad taken, his place at the
floral altar and Jut as' Ue procession
started down the grand staircase Mr. Van
derbilt, accompanied by his elder brother,
Alfred O. Wynne Vanderbilt. took position
beside the priest. "' .''
Bride Advances with Uncle. .
Miss Nellsen advanced on the arm of her
uncle, Frederick Gebhardt. Her four brides
maids were Miss Isabella May of Washing
ton, Miss Florence Twombley, a cousin ot
Mr. Vanderbilt; Miss Evelyn Parsons and
Miss Nathalie Schenck. The maid of honor
was Miss Gladys Vanderbilt, a sister of
the groom. ,
The ushers, who led the procession, were
Jules B. Nellsen, a brother ot the bride;
Ellis Adams ot Orange, N. J.; Arthur S.
Burden of New York, 8. H. Stone ot Syra
cuse, Peter Goelet Gerry and Albert Gray
of New York. ..
The bride was gowned In', heavy white
silk with a costly veil of rare lace. flowing
back from the crown of her bead to the end
of the train. Around her throat was tightly
clasped a serpent necklace of rarest pearls,
the gift ot the bridegroom.
The ceremony was brief. Its completion
was indicated by the Mendelssohn march.
A reception followed and an Inspection was
made of the bridal gifts, 'Which were de
clared to be probably as costly an array as
was ever bestowed on two young people at
the advent of their married life. Then
came the wedding breakfast.
Mr. and Mrs. VanderblU,left for their
new villa at Sandy Point, a few miles up
ths island, during tba afternoon, where
they will spend a few days previous to a
three months' trip to Europe.

Lumber Men Lay Complaint.
The Central Yellow Pine association,
composed of lumber manufacturers and
shippers In Mississippi, Alabama and Geor
gia, today filed with the Interstate Com'
merco commission a request for an Investi
gation of alleged Illegal advantages given
manufacturers along the Rising Arkansas
and Louisiana, west ot the Mississippi
river. These Arms own feeding lines run
ning from the mills to the main railways.
The complaint alleges that:
Such shippers are treated aa carriers pro
tanto ot the lumber manufactured from
the logs billed out and over the said rail
reads. I'pon the false theory that they are
engaged In the continuous carriage of their
lumber, they are allowed and paid a sub
stantial portion of the freight from the
point of shipment to the point of destina
tion, no matter how many lines ot railway
participate In the carriage. The so-called
tap division amounts to a rebate from the
regular and published tariff rates charge
able against shippers in general to as
much as 3 cents per 1U0 pounds, or $15 per
earioau.

RAINS RETARD FARM WORK
Temperature Has, However, Beea Fa.
vorable fur the Growth of
Vegetation.
WASHINGTON, April 14 The Weather
bureau today Issued the following weekly
summary of crop conditions:
In the district east of the Rocky moun
tain during the week ending April 13, the
temperature has been highly favorable for
growth of vegetation, but farm work was
generally retarded by rains In the Iskes re
gions, central valleys and Atlantic coast dis
tricts, while complaints of lack of moliturs
are received from portions of the central
snd west gulf states.
In the central and northern Rocky
mountain district and on the north Pacific
roast the srsaun is very backward and
Washington and Oregon have suffered from
. cold, wet weather. In California the con
dlt Ions have been generally favorable with
the exceptions hsve some damage by frost.
Corn planting is la progress as fsr north
as Ksnsas, southern Missouri, Tennessee
and North Carolina, farther south planting
Is well advanced and Is completed In some
sections.
The condition of winter wheat Is gen
erally excellent and It has made splendid
progress since the first of the month, In
the upper Ohio valley, however, the freeze
of the fourth and fifth caused some injury.
On the whole the conditions of the crop
In the winter wheat belt east of the Rock
ies Is more promising than for years. For
California the outlook Is also promising,
but In Oregon and Washington the condi
tion of the crop Is less fsvorable, especially
In the last named state, where about one
third of the acreages will be re-sown.
Spring wheat seeding Is nearly completed
In Iowa and Nebraska and Is progressing
well In South Dakota. None has yet been
sown In North Dakota and In northern
Minnesota, but In southern Minnesota some
has been sown on rolling lands.
Oats contlues promising in the southern
states and seeding Is nearly completed cr
well advanced In ths central valleys where
the early sown Is coming up well.
By the close of March, which was very
mild month, all fruits were unusually far
advanced. Tho reports now Indicate that
many varieties of fruit have suffered
severely, more particularly peaches. In
California while some damage hss been
done by frost, the outlook is favorable.
On the north Paciflo coast the season Is so
backward that fruit has not been exposed
to Injury.

assassinated."
Mr. Parry concluded the Chicago para
graph with the prophesy that Chicago "will
be In the hands of martial law in a very
few months unless there Is an awakening
of the civic pride ot Chicago which shall
put an end to the lawlessness now throt
tling the city."
The American Federation of Labor was
denounced as an organization which
"breeds boycotters, plcketers and socialists
and the source from whence proceeds such
noxious emanations as the eight-hour and
antl-consplracy bills." The speaker de
nounced conciliation as a myth and arbt
tratlon as a failure, holding that there can
be no conciliation or arbitration when a
gun Is pointed at the head ot employers and
they are forced to arbitrate whether they
ill or not.
Report of the Secretary.
Marshall Cushing, . national secretary,

After the luncheon recess Hamilton Car-
hart of Michigan, national treasurer, re
ported a aattsfaetory (field for the treasury.
C. W. Post of Battle Creek, Mich., origina
tor ot the Post check system, delivered an
address on "The tyranny of trades unions
He said In part:
I am here ' to plead the cause of the
nite stave or today. He mar De partly
enslaved by a combination of circum
stances taken advantage of by selfish man
ufacturers although practically every em
ploye is as tree as air to go ana come at
his pleasure and sell his Tabor where he
likes, but the slave of a tyrannous labor
union is in trutn ana in iact, more sujeui
than the negro slave oi tne past.
There mav have been some brutal and
tyrannous slave owners In the south, but I
ask vou if ever in all the history of negro
slavery did there exist such a condition of
oppression, oi cruelty to men, women anu
children, as now ex'sts under the acts ot
desperate members of labor unions.
In the gradual solution of the wage ques
tion and the establishment of right tn both
parties, labor unions L-ecame a necessity
In order to curb the sel lshness and lnjus
tire of some manufacturers, but such vlo
lent and desperate excesses have crept into
the operation of labor unions that common
safety demands a new union, eliminating
tne raise or tne oia.
I am decidedly In favor of a union that
will help the people keep In work and se
cure the highest wages the business will
stand. This body should proceed at once
to the work of organization, either by com
mit tea nr in irnneral session: select officers
and Becure a general manager of high grade
and capable of earning a gooa sisea suiary.
Paid delegates should be sent broadcast to
the labor centers, there to organise local
unions, under the employer and employer's
union. These local organisations would
draw to themselves the best workmen In
th land, who are now forced too often.
from fear and by violence, to give over
their liberty to the manipulation ana dl
reotion of noisy, turbulent men.
Numerous resolutions were Introduced
and referred to committee without debate.
among them being the following:
Endorsing the organization of nonunion
workmen and pledging the association to
their support; pledging the support and as
slstance of members to any member under
union boycott; providing for an association
bureau ot labor to Investigate and attempt
to adjust the labor troubles of members
and to endeavor to organize and promote
a nonunion worklngman's association to be
known as . the "Worklngmsn's Liberty
Union," urging tariff revision on general
lines; favoring measures to increase the
elasticity ot the currency.
At tomorrow's session the delegates will
be addressed by Csrroll D. Wright ot
Washington and Mayor Samuel M. Jones of
Toledo.

Smug-fling Charge
DISTRICT ATTORNEY REFUSES HIS AID
Asked for Information Will Kot Give

Bench t'pholda Panel, Order
Ina- Strict Investigation.
SAN JUAN, Torto Rico, April 14. The
grand Jury is Investigating the so-rslled
smuggling esses in which officers ot the
United States navy and other prominent
men are Involved, notwithstanding ths in
structions which It Is stated District At
torney Pettingill has received from the de
partment of Justice at Washington, not to
present Information to the grand Jury this
term. The press and the natives hsve
practically demanded an Investigation, In
asmuch as Isst term a native merchant,
named Rlcardo Amado was sentenced to a
year's imprisonment and fined $r00 for
having contraband liquor in his possession.
This afternoon the grand Jury came Into
court and asked for Information. The fore
man said:
It has come to our knnwlerien that cer
tain cases of smuggling have occurred. We
nave asaea tne district attorney about tne
matter and he refused to bring up the
matter, alleging that he had received cer
tain instructions. We now ask the Judge
ir we nave M rivnr tn Information In anllA
of the district attorney's refusal.
Judge Holt had prepared a written
charge, in part as follows:
When you were empanelled at the be
ginning of the term you swore that you
would make a diligent inquiry Into, and a
true presentment make, of such matters
given to you or which might otherwise
come to your knowledge touching viola
tions of the statutes of the United States
and that you would make no presentment
through envy, hatred, favor, affection or
reward or through hope thereof. You
could not. If you desired, escape from the
obligations of your oath by heeding the in
structions oi any one.
The honored president of the United
States could pardon but he could not in
terfere. If you believe any one has given
Instructions tending to prevent the fullest
Investigation Into the commission of a
crime in the United States and the return
ot an Indictment If the evidence so war
rants, then you should be Inspired by an
additional determination to do your duty.
The court has knowledge ot the Instruc
tions to wnicn tne district attorney al
ludes. It is proper to say that it is my
opinion that there has been no Intention
of encroaching upon your sworn duty.
The testimony submitted last December
regarding the smuggling cases pointed to
dozen prominent officials of the navy,
army and insular government and citizens
being Implicated In the charges.

The State Soldiers' Home board has been
In session about a week and transacted a
largs amount of Important business, prin
cipal of which was the election of Captain
Lucas' successor, Hon. T. M. Goddard of
Sully county. The board also let the con
tract for the construction ot three cottages
for old veterans and their families. There
are already two such cottages on the home
grounds, and the recent legislature pro
vided for the construction ot three more.
TL K. Haufsauss of Canton was the suc
cessful bidder and has arrived to accept
the contract. He will have them completed
within two months. The board also made
arrangements for having an additional new
boiler put In for the steam beating of the
home.
They considered the practice of some
members of the home of misrepresenting the
home management and the board, to the
serious detriment of the Institution, and
while in session a case came to their at
tention ot a rumor that was credited as
coming from a member of the home who was
on a furlough at Hill City, v'uo was quoted
as saying that the board had decided that
the entire pension of members of the home
above $4 would be held out by the homo
management hereafter. This story caused
an Indignation meeting ot the members to
be held, at which It Is said the board was
roundly denounced and the peace and order
of the Institution was sorely Interrupted.
President Sbanafelt got the boys together
In the chapel and gave them a good, fath
erly talk and told them the story was
groundless and that the board had never
thought ot such a thing, and said that here
after any member who should be found
guilty of aiding or abetting in the circula
tion ot false rumors about the management
of the home would be promptly discharged
from the home.
The board then notified the Hill City vet
eran that they wanted him to appear forth
with to answer the charges of his circulat
ing false reports, and that it he failed to
respond to their call he would be promptly
discharged. He failed to come as requested
and his nsme was erased from the roll as
dishonorably discharged," while another
who helped circulate the story, but was not
a member at the time, was blacklisted and
cannot gain admission hereafter. The board
says It Is Just such conduct as that that has
caused them so much trouble and that
hereafter they will not harbor such med
dlesome men It the know It.

Grand Jury Strikes lalieky Number.
SIOUX FALLS 8. D.. April 14 (Speclsl
Telegram.) In the Vnlted States court to
day the grand Jury returned thirteen In
dictments. All but four were In cases of
psrties who have not yet been arrested and
their names, accordingly, have been with
held from the public. One of the Indict
ments was against Adam Jensh, a farmer
living fourteen miles northesst ot Lake
Preston, the charge against him being that
be mailed an objectionable letter and draw,
lng to Miss Lena Jeske, daughter of a neigh
boring farmer, of whom hs was enamoured.
To the letter was attached the name of a
rival for the affections of the girl, the pur
pose of the writer doubtless being to
"queer" the successful rival with the girl.
William Otto, a reded Sioux Isnd settler,
pleaded guilty to an Indictment charging
him with stealing horses from an Indian be
longing on the Rosebud reservation and
was sentenced by Judge Carland to a term
of one year and one day In the Sioux Falls
penitentiary.
Ire Kills the Fish.
SIOUX FALLS. S. D.. April 14 (Special.)
It has been discovered that all the fish In
Iike Campbell, Brookings county, are dead.
The lee froze to such a depth during the
winter that the fish, it Is believed, were
smothered. The water In the lake at pres
ent is at such a low stage that other fish
cannot enter It through the chute provided
for the purpose, and it will again be neces
sary to stock the lake with fish. The re
ceding water has left thousands of the dead
fish on thd shores of the lake and unless
they are removed the scent when warm
weather comes will be very offensive to
people living in the neighborhood.
