NO BRIDEGROOM CAME.
While Bride, Priest and Guests Waited, the
Groom Decamped with Funds.

DAYTON, Jan, ga sensation was developed
here to-day. James E.. Taylor, a commercial
drummer employed by Allen & Co., paper
dealers, was engaged to marry Mary Stein, a
charming and wellknown young lady. The
wedding was arranged and all preparations were
made. but no marriage was solemnized. They
were to have been married in the Holy Trinity
Church, but as they did not arrive on time, and
as church was full Of people, the priest said
mass, contrary to custom. MS SSeaolaly taxes

When the services were over, and the double
had not yet arrived, the congregation was dis
missed and the church doors were locked. All
this while the bride sat at nome robed in her
white and orange colored bridal attire, awaiting
the bridegroom; but minutes multiplied into
hours, and still he did not appear. Day finally
gave way to night, and night to day again. and
still the expected benedict was non est.
Inquiry of his employers revealed the fact
that the prospective husband had gone forth to
the customers of the house for which he was en-
ployed, collected all the money he could get hold
of, a large sum-, and babe this section of the
country farewell.

A BIG DEMOCRATIC PICNIC.
Cleveland Will Stay in Baltimore the Day
Before the Inauguration.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 28.-Rooms have been en-
gagged at the Mount Vernon Hotel for President
elect Cleveland, who will spend March 8 in this
city, preparatory to the Inauguration Oh the day
following, in Washington. The rooms chosen
are the blue suite, the handsomest in the house,
and it is proposed to make his stay here as
pleasant as possible. No visitors will be admits
ted except those he wishes to see. and it is un-
derstood that none of the Baltimore Democracy
who are anxious to serve their country will be
invited to call. Many of the city hotels have
agreed to furnish rooms to people from other
cities who are going to the Inauguration, and
who think 1T is better to avoid the crowd at the
capital as far as possible. A number of military
organizations have also engaged rooms at Balti-
more hotels. The travel to Washington on
March 4 promises to be almost unprecedented.
A party is now being made up to charter q
steamer to go to Washington the night before.
and remain there till the night after. Alto
gether, 1t would seem that Cleveland's inaugu-
ration is going to be one of the biggest Demo-
cratic. picnics ever seen in this country.

MASONIC NON-INTERCOURSE.
Edict Of the Grand Master of Quebec Against
the Grand Lodge of England.

TORONTO, Ont, Jan. 28.-Great interest is
taken III Masonic circles here over the action of
the Grand Master of Quebec in issuing an edict
of non-intercourse against the Grand Lodge of
England. While the sympathies of the craft
here are openly extended to the Grand Lodge of
Quebec, it is admitted that the English lodges
now working in Montreal are perfectly legal,
and exist by virtue of a concordat made by Lord
Zetland, representing the Grand Lodge of Eng
land, and Grand Master Wilson, of the Grand
Lodge of Canada. This concordat was honor
ably observed by both the grand bodies of Eng
land and Canada until the formation of the
Grand Lodge of Quebec. Latterly this
body found it's dignity hurt and it's
Jurisdiction menaced by the existence
of the English lodges, and petition
after petition has been sent to the Prince of
Wales requesting the withdrawal of the war
rants. After much correspondence the Grand
Lodge of England unanimously refused to &C.
cede to the request of Quebec; hence Grand
Master Johnson's edict. All interest centers in
the approaching meeting of the Grand Lodge of
Quebec, which opens at Montreal tomorrow,
when the ediet of non-intercourse will be dis
cussed. Just now it seems as if the Grand
Lodge of Canada will be- drawn into the fight
along with the majority of American Grand
Lodges. In the event Of the Grand Lodge of
Canada taking the Quebec side of the quarrel, it
is said the Prince of Wales will authorize the
chartering of English lodges in Ontario. At
present all is conjecture as to the course that
will be pursued by American grand bodies, but
already a number of Grand Masters have tele-
graphed their approval Of Quebec's position TO
Grand Master johnson.

The Senate closed its doors and resumed con-
sideration Of the Nicaraguan treaty at 1890 to-

stands, discrimination may be only made in
favor of the coastwise trade of Nicaragua.

that the Clayton Bulwer treaty was still an OBJ
stacle to ratification of the Nicaraguan treaty,
and he offered a motion that further action be
postponed until alter the 4th of March. This
motion was the subject of a long debate. Sen
ators Bayard and Salisbury, and others upon
the Democratic side. spoke in favor of the mo-
ton. and Senators Morgan, Lapham, Conger and
Miller. of California, opposed it.

defeated. At Z p. NJ. the question of postpone
ment was put to vote, and half an hour was con

A MISSING EDITOR.
Disappearance of S. s. COnant, Managing
Editor of Harper's Weekly.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. est has just been
discovered that the whole force of the Pinkerton
Agency has been for more than a week engaged
in a vain effort to trace one of the most startling
and remarkable cases of mysterious disappear
ance that has been known for years. Not only
in this city, but in all the large cities in the
country. they have been making the most dill
gent search to discover what has become of 8.
S. Conant, who has for, the last fifteen years
been the managing editor of Harpers Weekly.
and the circumstances of his sudden dropping
out have aroused the gravest apprehensions on
the part of his friends and relatives. One week
ago, Friday, without any explanation or without
any reason therefor known to any one, he ten
dered his resignation as managing editor of Har-
pers Weekly, to take effect at once. and left the
office Immediately. He has not since been seen
by any one of his family or friends.
On Wednesday last the following personal was
inserted in the Herald, but it has not as yet
brought any response:
$50 8. s. g.:
"As a friend and a brother, I earnestly ask you to
come home. FL. and 7. are both sick from grief and
anxiety. If you communicate with me, any trouble
will easily be arranged. B. Il.
s"Box 500, Postofice." ar
Since the fact of Mr.. Conant's strange action
has become known to some of his intimate
trlends, tney say IL mas Oeen discovered tnat no
was seen three times since the day of his resig-
nation, but not within the past week. 1t has
also been learned that he bought a ticket for
Florida, but the ticket was never presented.
No reason whatever is alleged for his resigna-
ton, which was as much a surprise to the Harp
ers as to any one else, for he had filled the i'm
portant position which he held for fifteen years
without any strain whatever upon the relations
between himself and the house. Mr.. Conant be-
gan on the New York Times as a reporter, in
1862, and rose through the different positions of
night city editor. news editor, night editor and
managing editor. He held the latter at the time
of Henry j. Raymond's death, and it was thought
at the time that he resigned because he was not
advanced to be editor of the paper. He went
from the Times to Harpers Weekly and to the
place which he resigned so suddenly twelve days
ago.
