BosToN, Jan. 4-The marriage of Miss
Gertrude Barrett and Mr Joseph Anderson,
Miss Mary Anderson's brother, was solem-
nized at the Cathedral here, Archbishop
Williams officiating About 800 invitations
were issued, but as many went to friends
across the water or in places almost equally
distant, the number of guests hardly exceeded
the usual dear 500" but the great size of the
church was prevented from giving a sparse
appearance to the assemblaGe by the use of
screens formed of potted plants, with whcn
about one-third of the floor space near the
chancel was partitioned off for the ceremony.
The invitations were accompanied by tickets,
without which none were admitted to the
sdifce.
The bride was attired in white satin, en-
rain, trimmed with costly valencienneS lace
and adorned with lilies of the valley. She
wore no jewels, nor any ornaments other
han flowers, and she carried a large bou-
luet

lie chine, and carried a bouquet of roses. The
bridesmaids were Miss Blanche Griffin, sister
IF Mr. Anderson; Miss Brewer, Miss Fair
.hild and Miss Ruth Burnett. Each wore
a wreath of forget-me-nots and carried a
bouquet of red roses
Lawrence Barrett, the father of the bride,
who had come on by special train from New
York. gave his daughter away.
J. Frank Donohue, the director of the
cathedral choir, hal prepared for the occa-
sion a special musical programme, which
offered several beautiful novelties.
Directly after the wedding reception
and breakfast was given at the home of the
brides parents, in Beacon street. To this
only about seventy-five of the more intimate
personal friends were invited. The house
was decorated with Orchids roses and other
choice flowers, and the trailing arbutus and
other vines.
The young couple will take no wedding
journey at present, but a trip abroad is
planned for next summer.

Several Amendments Agreed Upon-To
Pass Jan. 2i.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The sub-commi tee
of the senate finance committee having n
charge the tariff bill has practically agreed
upon number of amendments to be offered
in the senate before vote is taken on the
bill
1t has been agreed to give to sugar pro-
ducers a bounty equal to the reduction Of
80 per cent in the duty which the bill pro
vides. The bounty will be one cent pound
on all sugar which is produced in this coun-
try The committee has practically rejected
a proposition to admit free of duty Tor ex-
perimental purposes for year machinery
used in the manufacture of sugar
The duty on structural iron will probably
be reduced from one cent and one mill per
pound to eight or nine mills per pound.
The duty OH lumber will probably be re-
duced These amendments will possibly not
be announced formally by the committee
until they are proposed in the senate. There
will be no division in the Republican ranks,
and the tariff bill as amended viii pass the

from him was that he had been arrested on
