TALHAGE BREACHES PEACE
Brief Informal Remarks While on
His Honeymoon Tour.
Takes Occasion to ExtoI the Policy
OF Mckinley and Inveigns Against
War With Any Country.

Cleveland, o., Jan. 24.-The eourtship
of the Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage is the
subject of an interview with the emil
nent divine, who is here on his honey
moon. The pastor left this city to-
night for Chicago and Buffalo. and
after spending short time there will
go To New York city. Within few
days he will be back at his post of
duty in Washington. Mr.. Talmage is
inclined to resent the newspaper hints
that his marriage with Mrs. Elenors
McCutcheon at Allegheny on Saturday
was a secret affair.
There was nothing secret about my
marriage" said DR., Talmage In the
first place, about thirty people were
present and the Rev. DR. Robinson. my
wtfe's pastor. performed the ceremony.
The cause of a quiet marriage was that
there were recent deaths in other
branches of the family which necessi-
tated the observance of a reasonable
degree of privacy
The pastor was then asked if it was
true that his marriage was the result
of courtship which had it's incipiency
at Long Island resort
'Oh, no., exclaimed the doctor. with
a laugh. Il have known my present
wife over three years Our acquain-
tance gradually ripened into love and
eliminated in our marriage on Satur-
day e
When told that the newspapers of
the country spoke very highly of his
wife. DR. Talmage promptly replied
that they could not do otherwise In
conversation with reporter the
preacher said that he always enjoyed
coming here. In fact, there was no city
in the land in which he felt more at
home than in Cleveland. DR.. Talmage
is sixty years of age. His bride is
forty.
The Administration of President Nc
Kinley was the subject of especial
commendation on the part of the
preacher.
THE Chief Executive he said, SIS
the noblest and the best man who ever
occupied the Presidential chair. His
policy will some day meet with the ap-
proval of the great majority OF the
people He is right on the Cuban ques-
ton. We do not want war; we want
peace. Now is the time for every

Mr.. Andrew Wilson was before the Dr.
trict Commissioners yesterday with arecOm'
mendation that a deficiency hnl be seni
to Congress providing for the payment OF
the subcontractors on certain school build
ings who have not been paid by the cOu-
tractors. The subcontractors on two OF
three buildings, one OF which is the Stevens
school have not been paid and see no
prospect Of being paid, it is said Mr..
Wilson made no charges against the
contractors, but simply stated the fact.
The District can pay these people in no
other way than by deficiency appro-
priation made by Congress IL is under
stood, however, that the Commissioners
arc not in favor Of paying them. They
believe it would create very bad prece
dent. 1t is probable that Mfr. Wilson'S
