sidiere. grown very serious now, looked
at his watch and walked restlessly a,
bout. Marjorie entered one of the
pews, and, falling on her knees, prayed
silently
How long she remained there she did
not know; hand laid gently upon her
shoulder recalled her to herself, and
looking up she saw her lover.
"Come, Marjorie, he said; ''come, my
love-"
She rose from her knees; he put his
arms about her and led her away.
What followed seemed like dream
She was only dimly conscious of walk
ing up the broad aisle and taking her
place before the altar rails. She saw
as in mist the clergyman in his white
robe, and a man and a woman who
were complete strangers. She was con-
scious of the service being read, of CIV
ing her responses, Of her hands being
clasped, and of a ring being put upon
her finger. Then she was led away
again; she was in strange room, she
signed her name, and as she laid down
the pen, Caussidiere clasped her in his
arms and kissed her.

Yes, it was all over; the past was
done with, the future begun. Marjorie
Amman had been by that simple cere-
mony transformed into Marjorie
Caussidiere.''
The ceremony over, the wife and hus-
band returned to the inn, where they
had private luncheon.
Then she entered the carriage which
was awaiting her, and drove away by
her husbands side to the railway sta
ton.

reaching agricultural and Manufacture
Ing interests at the South. Eastern
bankers find lOng-distance telephones
of service IN verifying differences or

up interior banks. Chicago grain and
meat product dealers, who arc heavy
shippers, use the wires in arranging de-
tails Of their business. as do the repre-

between the long-distance telephone

for discussion. Thus far there has been
no open competition between them. In
any event, space has been practically
aninhllated IN the United States east Of

Severinp ReIations with Havana.

Another, and probably the most sig
nifcant straw showing the tinality
reached by the United States govern
ment, was the authoritative statement
that sul-General Lee would leave
Havana Saturday. This step, it Is
known, will be regarded by Spain as
akin to an overt act preceding war, as
il will terminate the medium Of official
intercourse between the United States
and the island.
Third, and almost equally import
ant, was the ominous tones OF press adj
vices from Madrid, where the war feel
ing seems to dominate. Instead of
concessions, the opening OF prison
doors, and the other manifestations OF
peace and good will which Holy Thurs
day was expected to bring forth, and
the more definite announcement Of ac-
ton that would bring peace to Cuba.
the heavy guard about Minister Wood
ford's house, the imperative character
of the semi-otticial note, the war utter
ance OF Minister Correa and the turbu-
lence at the Spanish capital, left little
hope that pacific counsels would pre-
vail.
No negotiations are proceeding at
Madrid on the part Of this government,
but the powers of Europe are doing
their utmost to persuade the Spanish
government to yield and avert war.
On the highest authority it can be
stated that no instructions have been
given as yet to Minister Woodford con.
templating his withdrawal, the only
step in that direction being the deter.
mnation that General Lee shall leave
Havana today.
