latter occupied an elevated position,
which gave them a decided advantage
over the Spaniards, who were taken by
surprise. The troops claim that the rebels
used explosive bullets. However this
may be, it is known that the Spanish were
defeated after hot fight, losing many
killed and wounded. Among the latter
were Colonel Vasquez and Lieutenant

was sixteen wounded. The report saws

the usual promise that II plight thee my

VOW. The minister at the same time
Joined both their hands. AS the minister
uttered the words, "Those whom God hath
joined together let no man put asunder,"
the bride and groom turned about and
faced each other. General Harrison stood
erect, with his left hand behind his back
and his unused glove dangling between
his fingers.
The final words that made them one
were pronounced at seventeen minutes to
6 o'clock. DR.. Brown shook hands with
both and offered his warm congratula-
tons. The ex-President then extended
his right arm to his newly made bride,
and to the soft strains of the "Tann-
hauser" wedding march they filed down
the center aisle. They were Immediately
followed by the ushers. Next came Lieu
tenant Parker. As he reached his pew he
gave his arm to Mrs. Parker. who stood
awaiting him. General Tracy followed,
he taking Mrs. PInchot from the pew on
the right. In this order the wedding pro-
cession marched down the aisle, the guests
Following behind. On reaching the vesti-
bule the party returned to the tower-room,
where wraps were donned. The party at
once left the church and retired to their
carriages.
During the ceremony the intermezzo
from Mascag gni's "Cavalleria Rusticanan
was rendered on the organ with artistic
effect. The moment the bridal party en-
tered the assemblage rose. and remained
standing throughout the ceremony. The
deepest interest was manifested, and
every movement of the contracting couple
was noted. AS the bride and groom
marched down the aisle after the cere-
mony Mrs. Harrison bowed pleasantly to
her different acquaintances. The stern
expression depicted upon her usually
pallid face had faded away, and was sup
planted by bright smile. The generals
face bore calm, satisfied expression.
The bridal party was driven to the resi-
dence of Mrs. Pinchot. 2 Gramercy Park
where light refreshments were served.
Here the bride and groom donned their
travelling attire. Soon after o'clock the

IMPRESSIVE CEREMONIES HELD

Train While Speeding TO
Indianapolis.

NEW YORK. n. Y, April Ga simple
service united Benjamin Harrison, twenty
third President of the United States, and
Mrs. Mary Scott Lord Dimmick in we'd
locks bond in ST. Thomas Church a half
hour before this evening. Not one of
the thirty-siX favored witnesses Of the GER
emony could fail to have been impressed
with its singular unpretentiOusness. Ben
jamin Harrison is q PLAIN man, Mrs. DIM
mick is q PLAIN woman. 1t was fitting,
therefore, that in celebrating such an i'm
portant epoch it should. be chara cterized
with that everyday simplicity of their
lives.
The crowds outside the church showed
the interest the public had in the affair
Secrecy as TO the actual hour of the cere-
mony had been carefully maintained, and
this in a measure kept away the curious.
Then, too, the weather was not inviting
enough to attract as great a crowd as was
feared.
Easter sunshine had given way to.dark
and ominous clouds. The morning was
ushered in with a heavy snowstorm, which
later turned into rain, There was cessa-
ton about noon, but the day con tinued
about the church were not OF the
city's fashlonables. The workday
people were there in force, and
they elbowed each other in their earnest
endeavor to catch glimpse of the bride
and groom and the different statesmen
who had the honor to be included in the
small coterie. The guests arrived shortly
after 5.-As they altered they were re-
ceived by two ushers, the youthful-looking
private secretary of the ex-President, L.
I. Tibbett, and the soldierly bearing Dan
iei \. Ransdell, hero of the Civil War;
The ushers wore frock coats, dark trousers,
bouttonieres of white vlolets and white
gloves.
Mrs. John F. Parker, the brides sister,
occupied front pew on the LETT and Mr..
and Mrs. Pin chot the one on the right.
Behind Mrs. Parker sat Governor Morton
and Colonel Marvin, his military private
secretary. In the succeeding pew were {:
Senator and Mrs. S. B. Elkins, ex-Secre-
tary of State John W Foster and Mrs.
Foster, ex-Attorney General W. H. II E.
Miller and Mrs. Miller and George W.
Boyd of the Pennsylvania Railroad. In
pews back of Mr.. and Mrs. Pinchot sat
relatives and friends of the bride. They
were Major and Mrs. Richard Parker.
Chancellor and Mrs. McGill, the Misses
Dimmick and Mrs. Bridge, Mr.. and Mrs.
Leeds, Norman Leeds and the Misses
Leeds, Mr.. and Mrs. Broughton and Miss
Lambert, General and Mrs. Fitz John Por-

In all thirty-six people were present.
Admission was by card. written and signed
by Mr.. Tibbett, and each arrival at the
church was closely scrutin;zed by him be-

of Harrison's Cabinet were present, except

in the regular organization will not be
given a chance to exert their influence in
behalf of the Senator and thereby put him
under further obligations.
The gulf between Senator Cullom and his
cid friends is widening. He is drawing
some of the Representatives to him in an
ticipation of a contest with the organZa-
, ton. The plan of Mr.. Tanner and his as
sociates is to agree in certain positions,
divide them and then present the slate to
the President for approval. Senator Gull
lom and the Representatives prefer to fol-
low the old rule of congressional influence.
They concede no right TO Governor. Tan
ner's state machine or TO the Chicago re-
publican Tammany to nave share in the
distribution of federal patronage. If Rep
resentative Lorimer and other members
who are identified with the machine want
a different arrangement they will have the
opposition of Senator Cullom. Thel know1-
edge of this condition will undoubtedly
come to Major Mckinley while he is in
Illinois and may help to eliminate Senator
Culom from the cabinet probabilities.
Mr.. AlIerton's Ambition.
The only other known cabinet timber in
the state is Mr.. S. w. Allerton. He has
been an enthusiastic Mckinley man for q
long time back. He fought the machine by
pen and purse in order to secure the dele
CATION from Illinois. Though capitalist,
he owns farms in some of the counties. and
it Is as FARMER tnat ne lays hlmseH oi
the altar of the incoming administration.
He wants to be Secretary of Agriculture.
Mr. Allerton Is an original character OF
decided forces, but there are some folks In
Chicago who are warning Major Mckinley
that the cabinet is not the best place for
the exercise of his strong qualities.
When he decided not to be private secre-
tary Mr.. Charles G. Dawes had notion
that he might reach the cabinet. Some of
the Congressman who were sounded on the
subject Of indorsing Mr.. Dawes vetoed the
idea so emphatically that they were not
pressed. The major has genuine esteem
for Mr. Dawes, and since the latter will not
become private secretary other provision
will be made for him.
