A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.
A vsuug Lady WEEDS the Man Who Saved Her
From Fiery Death.

LONDON, England. March ia
large and fashionable assemblage at
the aristocratic church Of st, George,
in Hanover square, witnessed the nup-
tials at high noon, to-day, of Miss
Kathryn Wright and Sir Edmund A.
Lechmers, baronst and deputy -lieuten-
ant for Worcestershire. The bride ia
the sister Of z. Payton Wright, APRON
inent attorney Of Pittsburg, Pa, and
who gave her away.
Back Of the happy.event, isa story
considerably out Of the common. About
eighteen months ago, while q guest OF
the bridegroom's mother at her resi-
dence in Warwickshire, the place took
FIRE, and before she could escape, she
was hemmed In by flames in the south
wing. She was rescued, just in time,
by Sir Edmund, who wrapped himself
in sheet soaked in water, lifted hei
unconscious from the floor, wrapped
her in sheet and dashed through thu
flames to the open arr. The brave res
ouer was badly burned about the hands
neck and face, his eyelids and hair be
ing singed to the skin, while It wa
feared for while that he would lose
his sight. AS in the old love stories,
matrimonial engagement followed hil
recovery. The bride is but trim
over twenty years OF age and famou
beauty. The groom is three years hel
senior, and besides considerable wealtl
in his own name, he Is heir to immens'
ettates.

DENVER, Colo, March 1b.-A
conference OF number Of prominent
national and state leaders of the free
coinage movement. will be held at the
Brown Palace hotel, this evening, for
the purpose of discussing measures to

Mckinley administration will render
no assistance to Cuba.
Senator Jones and Senator Teller

an impromptu affair and 1t will simply
discuss the situation generally and en-.
deavor to promote a movement to
carry on an educational campaign in
the interest of silver. The conference
was not called until Yesterday, when II

silver leaders were In town. 1t is,
therefore. to be quite informal, but il
is also expected to be of decided inter.
est and significance.

Las VEGAS Young LADIES.
Their Concert at Santa Fe Was One
or the Successes or the Season.

From the New Mexican.
The concert given by the young
ladies from Las Vegas at the court
house, Thursday evening, proved one
Of the social events and successes CT
the season. The auditorium was flied
with Santa Fe's 400, and more. de-
lighted audience has not assembled 10
that. room for many day.
Miss Beatrice Atkins and Miss Edith
Rothgeb, the violinists, divided the
honors equally, and a majority OF those
present are still undecided which Of the
two is the better artist. But be that as
ii may, the young ladies are fine per
formers. Both received enthusiastic
encores, and every one was disappoint-
ed when they refused TO appear IN an
swer to the repeated calls for them.
Miss Edith Rotbgeb has brilliant
career before her as violinist. For q
girl OF her years to possess so sympa-
thetIc touch and fine execution Is
rarely known, and her many friends
are expecting her to make stir in the
musical world.
In Miss Blanche Rothgeb, the Ter
ritory possesses soprano singer Of
great merit. Her voice Is iull, rich
and well cultivated. while her manner
Is pleasingly unaffected. Her rem
dition cf ssProtestations, with piano
and violin accompaniment, was simply
beautiful.
AS an accompanist, Miss Ruth
Raynolds is sympathetic and helpful
She thoroughly understands the sob
ordination Of the piano 10 the voice Of
the solo instrument, and by that one
thing proved herself an accomplished
musician. Good accompanies are rare,
and Miss Reynolds stands in that class
The young ladies captured their list
eners with the first number OF the
program. and tho general verdict 10
that it was one OF the best musical en-
tertainments ever given IN the city.
The Misses Rothgeb. Atkins, and Ray
nolds can ssown the town. at any time
they chose to return and give another
concert.

These will be conducted di-
rectly between Turkey and Greece,
but when they are agreed upon by
them, if they can come to an agree
ment, the terms will have to be re-
viewed land accepted by the powers,
and if there is anything therein that
any of the powers object to, it will be
stricken therefrom, providing of
course that the powers can agree
thereon. But it is doubtful if Turkey
and Greece can agree upon the terms.
Turkey is much elated over it's victory
in Greece, land feels itself of great i'm
portance in European matters, and
that the time has come when it can
advance the cause of the Moslem re-
ligion therein. But Greece Rwill not
agree to the surrender of ThessaIy nor
to the.payment of large indemnity,
and in all probability, the powers will
back her up in this. 1t is not to the
interest of Russia, at least, nor of
Austria and England, to allow Turkey
to increase her possessions in Europe.
The situation is one that will lose
none of it's interest in the next few
weeks, as the powers play for every
advantage possible, and at the same
time keep free from war.

DEMOCRATIC PROGRAMME
Internal Revenue Schedule of the Tari
Bill to Be First Attacked.

Internal Revenue Schedule of the Tariff
Bill to Be First Attacked.
WASHINGTON, May 24.-The demo
cratic senators held caucus and decided
to inaugurate their fight upon the tariff
bill as soon as the bill is taken up in the
senate by motion to strike out the in,
ternal revenue features of the bill relat-
ing to beer and tobacco.
This result was reached after a dis.
cussion in which practically all the SEN
ators present participated. The con.
clusion was unanimous that this was
the wise and polite course to pursue.
The talk was based largely upon the
proposition to increase the tax upon
beer, which was generally criticized as
all effort to increase the price of "the
poor mans beverage" which was pro-
nounced wholly unjustifable in time of
peace and with $12O,OOO,OOO of idle
money in the treasury. The proposed
beer tax was condemned as war tax.
The discussion of other features of the
tariff bill was only desultory and no
conclusion beyond that stated was
reached

WASHINGTON, May 24.-The Morgan
resolution recognizing the belligerency
OF the Cuban insurgents, which passed

the decision of the Republican leaders
They have decided to block the resolu,
ton until the plans of the presid ent
which are now maturing, are formu.
lated. There will doubtless be a de.
mand on the part of the minor
ity for an immediate action, but
they are powerless to secure consid-
Grafton unless the rules committee will
report special order. This the rules
committee will not do. The majority
will antagonize any attempt to force
consideration. On Thursday the con-
ference report ON the Indian or sundry
civil bill may be ready. If one or the
other is not ready the house will adj
Journ until the following Monday.

Hogs Friday brought $40 and
$3.50. q. J. Macbeth states that this
is higher than is being paid in the
twin cities and as high as the Chicago
market will possibly justify. He is
competing with the packing house,
and this is making good market for
hogs in Mankato. An increasing
number of hogs are coming in. Mr..
Macbeth is doing good deal of
butchering for the local meat markets,
and is shipping many live porkers to
Chicago.

doubt many of the gates will be sold

THE RELIEF OF SObA.

The advices from WasL lngton al
point strongly to the fact thai some
move will soon be taken looking &c
the solution Of the Cuban trouble.
President Mckinley has been con-
siderably criticised for not doing
something in behalf of the struggling
Cubans ere this, and were it not
that he has been carefully
studying and obtaining all the in
formation possible, so that when he
takes action, it shall be of an effective
nature, the criticism would be JUS
titled. But the reports of the past
few days indicate that he has been
getting hold of all possible informa-
tion and expects in a few days to
receive much more from special COM
missioner Calhoun, who is now upon
the island, From what was divulged
in the house the other day while the
senate resolution was up for
consideration, it would seem that the
President is looking for the complete
independe of Cuba, and will shape
whatever move he has in mind to that
end. Just how he intends to bring
this about is of course unknown, but
the feeling that the end is about
reached and that something
effective on the part of the govern
ment at washington will be done
is daily strengthening. The SEN
ate resolution is in strict accord
with the sentiment of the people of
this country. Its passage by the SEN
ate will not probably in any way in
terfere with, or embarass, the presi-
dent in the carrying out of the policy
he seems to be shaping. But should
the house also concur, that would
materially change the situation. But
there is no likelihood of it's getting
through the house until the president
has signitied that it will not inter-
| fere with him.
Matters have reached point in
Cuba when it would seem that there
could be no longer excuse for non &C
tion. The sentiment of the country
is favorable to policy that will re-
suit in the freedom of the struggling
patriots, and the people will strongly
back the president in any wise meas
IRE he may undertake to carry out
| that will look tn the cOmDlate free
| dom of Cuba.

THE powers have determined that
Greece shall pay Turkey $4,000, 900
and that the boundry Zine between
Turkey and Greece shall be rearrang-
ed, the latter losing small slice of
territory thereby. This Isl doubtless
letting Greece down as easy as could
be expected in view of her defeat, but
in her bankrupt condition it will be a
heavy load for her to carry, especially
when the burden of the ravages of
war are taken into consideration.
Coming at the season of the year it
did, the war will cause much suffer
ing among the people of the northern
part of Greece, as it has prevented
the usual planting of the crops.

was totally wiped out within an hour
and a half from the time the alarm
was sent in.
The FREE PRESS is not disposed to
unjustly censure the night police
force, but that there was negligence
on their part bordering on criminality
can hardly be questioned in the light
of evidence and circumstances attend
ing this fire. The consumed building
| was within 300 feet of the city hall,
and night police are stationed in the
block. Smoke was seen issuing from
the building at least an hour before
the alarm was sounded and yet not a
policeman was visible, and it was left
for bus driver to turn in the alarm
at box 35 when the fire was within
two hundred feet Of box Sc and under
the very shadow of the police head
quarters. The cook at The Saulpaugh
heard a.crash of glass about $40, and
looking from the window of the
kitchen saw dense volume of smoke
a little to the south. He sent the
yard man of the hotel out to turn in
the alarm and that gentleman found
Policeman Lundberg rubbing his ewes
just as he was entering the head
quarters. 1t is fair to presume that
the city official had just aroused from
a quiet slumber and was about to step
out on the street to get little fresh
air. Had he been attending to his
duties no doubt the fire would have
been discovered two hours or more be.
fore it was, as it had uDquestionably
been smouldering for two or three
hours before it broke out. 1t is GER
talnly time now for the mayor to
move on his police force. 1t is every
way probable that, if the police whose
duty it is to patrol that portion of the
city, had been attending to his bust
ness, the discovery of the fire would
have been made in ample time to have
saved the building and contents and
thus prevented a great loss. Such
dereliction of duty as this is wholly
unexcusable. 1t can hardly be classed
as less than criminal neglect.
If the existence of a fire like the
one this morning, with smoke issuing
from every window, under the very
caves of the city hall is to escape the
sight and smell of our paid night
watch, what wonder that the fire
bugs who have been getting in their
nefarious work elude detection? IN
less there is some radical reforms
inaugurated about the city hall forth
with, and men put on duty who will
patrol the streets and alleys, we might
as we'll get along without any watch
men and save the expense of salaries.
There seems to be no safety as now
conducted. Thieves could enter a
building and carry off a dray load of
goods without detection and In broad
lay light, if we's are Ito accept this
b, 'rnings neglect of duty as an
arnes't of the vigilance" of the
OliCe.

Bill Taken Up Ten Weeks After the BE

WASHINGTON, May 24.-On tomorrow
ten weeks and day after the beginning
OF the session, the senate will take vi
the tariff bill for the passage of which
the session was especially called. Sen
ator Aldrich will call up the bill, move
its consideration and make a speech il
its support. The Democratic amend
ment striking out the internal revenue
features Of the bill will be introduced
by Senator Vest. After this the course
OF procedure is somewhat indefinite
The Democrats are not clear as tc
whether they will permit the immediate
taking up of the schedules or will de-
mand an opportunity to make sci
speeches bearing upon the general policy
of the bill. The prevailing opinion
among the Democratic leaders is against
the policy of general speeches at the
beginning of the discussion.
