WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Quietly and
in the presence of..the brides relatives and
personal friends and members of Wash-
ington's official society and several hun
bred OF the general public, Hon. Joseph
Chamberlain and Miss Mary Endicott
were married at . o'clock this afternoon
in st. Johns Episcopal church. The
church was absolutely without floral or
other decorations. No cards or formal
invitations had been issued, no best men
or bridesmaids, and the entire service was
characterized by extreme simplicity. Such
of the friends of the family as had been
verbally invited took seats in the body of
the church half an hour before the cere-
mony began. The cabinet meeting end
ed early to permit the members to be
present at the service. They were in
most cases accompanied by their wives.
The president and Mrs. Cleveland en-
tered the church Just before 2 o'clock,
and were escorted to seats in one of the
pews in the first row. Members of the
Endicott family and relatives were seated
Immediately in the rear, while as many of
the public as could find room in the little
church filled the gallery and hall ways.
Chamberlain entered the church at .
o'clock and waited at the chancel. His
appearance was the signal to the organist,
who Immediately began to play the wed,
ding march from Lohengrin, and the
bride entered on the arm of her father, at
tired. in a pearl gray travelling dress and
wearing a dark bonnet. She passed up
the right aisle. and joining the bridegroom,
knelt before the altar. The Rev. DR..
Leonard, assisted by the Rev. Mr.. Franks
of Salem. Mass. performed the Episcopal
wedding service. Both bride and groom
gave back tie answers in a firm and audi
BILE voice, and after prayer was pro-
nounced Joseph Chamberlain and Mary
Endicott were man and wife. Again the
organ pealed forth and to its strains the
party slowly passed along the left aisle
and u of church, and into carriages, and
were driven Immediately to the house of
the brides parents.
Among the notable persons present be-
sides the president and Mrs. Cleveland,
were Mrs. Whitney, Mrs. Falrchild. Mrs.
Dickinson, the Misses Bayard, Miss
Villas, Secretaries Bayard, Fairchild,
Whitney, Villas, Postmaster General
Dickinson. Justice Lamar, the Misses
Hunt, Mr.. Samuel Ward, Col. John Hay,
Capt. John f. Rodgers, Admiral and
Miss Rodgers, Mrs. Riddle, the Misses
Macomb and Gen. Greedy. The recep-
ton was held at the residence of the Sec
rotary, where the newly married couple
received the congratulations of the invited
guests. After the reception Mr.. and
Mrs. Chamberlain drove to the Pennsyl-
vania railway station. and it is supposed
they went to New York, although their
destination was not known even to the
brides parents. They will return to
Washington within a week and be the
guests of Secretary Endicott for a few
days. On the Goth they will sail for
EurOpe.

An open letter, addressed to Mr.. Ben

American Telegraph Company, and tried
to force the company TO give the Herald
not only lower tolls, but to give the Herald
dispatches precedence over other news
paper business. In consequence of Mr.,
Benefits perslstency in this course, Mr..
Gould says that Mr.. Bennett was dropped
from the board of directors as soon rs

with singing criticism of Mr.. Bennett S

Saturday evening the accredited dele
gates to The Council met at the Riggs
III ousc and effected n permanent organiza-
ton after four-hours session, by elect
ing Milicent Fawcett of England, presi-
dent; Clara Barton of America, vice
president; Rachel G.. Foster, America,
corresponding secretary; Kristine Fred

of the National Council.
This morning the ladies went TO the

meeting at the Riggs House to pass some
resolutions and this will be the last
meeting Of the delegates to the Inter
national Council of Women.
Tomorrow the National Woman
Suffrage Association meets at the Univer-

The morning session will be open to

OF course, she said the council had
been grand success as a council. Finan-
cially, they were just about even. The
entire expense of the Council, she
| thought, would be about 5000, includ-
| ing the cost Of daily paper, which had
! cost about 5000. The receipts at the
door for admissions and single reserved
| seats, not season tickets, would aggregate
| about $500, the total receipts about
! 5000, and the difference between this
| and the total cost Of the Council. she
| thought, would be made up By the con-
| tributions.
Everything in the council had worked
| tremendously she said, what friction
| there was being outside, and she was
| happily surprised at this. 81 dld not cX-
| pcct to have friend left in the world at

for asssaulting his wife. Mrs. Ellis testi-
fled that whisky was the cause of her
troubles. Friday night when her hus-
band returned home he drew a penknife
on her, but said that it was not sharp
enough, and when he went to get his
razor she started to get out. He then
struck her and knocked her down. She
wanted the Judge to make her husband
sign the pledge and keep away from his
evil associates, but as that was beyond
the power of the Court, the defendant was
given a sentence of six months in Jail in
