ONE KNOT WILL DO.
Miss Gould Will be Married Once,
and That by Archbishop
Corripan

NEW YORK, March 2.-There will
be but one marriage ceremony at
the wedding Of Miss Anna Gould
to the Count Boniface De Caste
llano. The ceremony will be per.
formed by Archbishop Corrigan.
Mrs. George Gould authorized
this announcement last night, af-
ter some of the misinformation
circulated had been brought to her
attention. The reason why there
will be no civil ceremony is be-
cause there is no civil ceremony
necessary. The French law, con-
trary to the general impression,
recognizes as valid a marriage con-
tracted in a foreign country in con-
formity with the laws of that cOun-
try. Mr.. Frederick r. GOudert
said last night:
In France the law is very strict
and civil ceremony is absolutely
necessary. The law does not recOg-
nize a religious marriage at all.
If the archbishop Of Paris should
himself perform the marriage, it
must be followed by civil cere-
mony to be recognized. But in
France, as strict as the law is, it is
liberal in dealing with marriages
elsewhere. 1t very plainly pro-
vides that such marriages shall be
valid in France, no matter by
whom performed, so long as
they are valid where performed.
II one of the contracting parties is
a native Of France, there are GER
tain conditions, but these do not
affect this case. For instance, the
consents Of the parents must be
obtained. In this case the parents
are here. The banns must be publis-
ed in the papers OF the place in
which the French subject lives,
and to conserve property rights
the marriage must be recorded in
France.

ENGLAND NOT IN 1T.
GREAT BRITAIN WILL ADHERE TO
MONOMETALIsTIO POLICY.
If United States Decides on Free
Coinage She Will Reopen
Her Indian Mlnts-What
France and Germ
any Say.

NEW YORK, March "A special
dispatch to the World from Lon
don says:
Except in Manchester, where the
bi-metallic feeling is very strong,
the action Of parliament the other
day has evoked very little COM
ment in the English press, but in
both conservative and liberal
journals in London the tone is
very strongly against any change
in her monetary system or indeed,
any alterations in England's atti-
tude IL Germany calls an interna-
tional conference in the form that
was maintained at Brussels.
In the liberal ranks, if any Of
the leaders Of the present govern
ment remain in power at the date
OF sending delegates they are GER
tain to be instructed to commit
Great Britain to no action Of the
conference which would alter her
present single standard.
Although Mr.. Balfour is an
avowed bi.metallist and is quite
certain to be premier when the con-
sentative party comes in, he is al
most alone among the leaders Of
his party in his views, and he has
pledged himself that his private
views on the subject shall not affect
his public action. Both he and
Lord Roseberry are still confined
to their rooms with influenza.
To correspondent that called at
Mr.. Balfour's residence and sent
up request for statement Of his
views, he sent down this answer:
"Mr. Balfour is extremely sorry
that he is too i'll to deal with the
subject at present"
Mr.. Cham berlain said: at is
subject on which / am not in
clined to give an opinion just
now."
The fact is that the distress in
India and the great business de-
preston in the cotton manufac-
turing district Of England, have
made the question very serious
one for politicians, and as shown in
the debate in parliament the other
day, they are very chary of COM
hitting themselves. 1t is possible
that the clamor from England will
become SO great that the English
delegates might consider propo-
sition before the conference to re-
open the minis there, in case an
international agreement is eff
ected.
Those interviewed boldly say
that if the United States reopened
her minis, India would certainly
follow her example.
A curious incident Of the discus
sion is that the Republique Fran
caise welcomes a discussion, and
asserts that the German Emperor
is the "most suitable arbiter in this
most important international ques-
ton"
The German bi-metallists are
pushing the project Of conference
vigorously, but the Kreuz Ieitung
says:
"Ifin our leading circulars the
immense social Importance OF the
question were recognized, we could
confidently reckon on its solution,
for our Emperor, who would as
sumo command and lead US quick
ly and irresistably to victory; but
in view of the information on
which his majesty has to rely, we
fear much misery will have to fall
upon the peasant population and
all connected with it before any
appreciation Of the social import
ance Of the currency question reach
es the steps of the throne"
