REV. KINds's MARRIAGE.
A Very Happy Occasion to .aii Those
Who We're Present.

The wedding of Rev. w. T. King
and Miss Lorena Crockett at the Pres
byterian church last night was wit
messed by about one hundred friends,
and was very pretty affair. Rev. w.
r. King, of Muskogee, performed the
ceremony, using the elaborate and
impressive ritual of the Presbyterian
church. Present and seated on the
platform were Rev. f. W. Hawley of
Oklahoma City, synodical superin-
tendent of Indian Territory and Ok
lahoma, Rev. John Cassell, of Fort
Scott, Kansas, Rev Thomas Lloyd,
rector St. Johns Episcopal Mission,
this city, Rev. NJ. L. Butler, pastor of
the Methodist church, Vinita, and
Rev. Mr.. Hudson, pastor of the Bap-
tist church, Vinita. The bridal party
arrived at exactly $50 O'Clock and the
groom accompanied by the bride took
their places on the platform in front
of the pulpit and the ceremony lmme-
diately began.
The rejoicing on the part of the
membership of Mr.. Kings church and
congregation, and the congratulations
and we'll wishes were hearty and gem
eral. The universal opinion is that
the union is a remarkably happy one
and that the welded pair are unusu-
ally well adapted to each other. The
bride has endeared herself to all
who know her, and especially to the
workers in the Presbyterian church as
a quiet, unassuming lady, though
jealous and active in church work, and
musician of rare attainments, hay-
ing just the qualifications Of mind
and heart to make model minister's
wife. The Presbyterian church, as
we'll as a large circle of friends have
reason to rejoice at their pastors

Mr.. Lewey, with F. L. Kelley, hay

no higher this season than prairie hay,
a very uncommon state of affairs; it is
generally two or three dollars higher
on the ton. In some instances tim
othy has sold this season for even less
than our prairie hay. Feeders of
work stock, though, prefer prairie

intUxicated-yery much so-and on

LIFTED THE VEIL
New Facts About the Treaty of
Peace Become Known.
Plan to Acquire All of the Philippine
was the Result Of Occurrences
In Paris After the Diplomats
Arrived There.

Washington, Jan. 31.-The president
has sent to the senate the correspond
ence on file in the state department
bearing upon the peace treaty and it
was read in Mondays executive session.
The correspondence was sent in re-
sponse to the resolution introduced by
Senator Ioar and includes most of the
letters and cablegrams from the com
missioners to the president and from
the president to the commissioners in
the way of instructions. One of the
first cablegrams from the president in
structed them to demand the cession
of Luzon island.
The decision to take the entire group
of islands was made by the commits
sioners to the president as the result
of occurrences at Paris after the ar
rival there of the commissioners.
Much stress was laid by the commits
sioners upon the probability of future
trouble with Spain. With LuZon under
American administration there would
soC0 be such vast improvement, they
wrc,e. that the other islanders would
soon grow more and more rebellious
and with Spain's oppressive methods
find that we had another Cuba at an
other door. Furthermore there would
he constant filibustering and we should
find ourselves spending millions to pre-
serve state of neutrality, just as we
did in the case of Cuba prior to our
declaration of war on account of that
island. Gen. Merritt's testimony on
this point was cited and was made the
reason for much of the argument in
favor of taking the entire group.
The president does not appear to
have at any time given explicit instruc-
tions to consummate the bargain by
taking all the Philippines, but rather,
after hearing a full explanation. to
have left the matter to the discretion
of the commissioners. The entire con-
troversy was practically over the Phil
ippines and the question of assuming
responsibility for the payment of the
Spanish bonds for which the Cuban
revenues We're pledged.
The Spaniards from the first insisted
upon an indemnity for the Philippines,
and the correspondence shows that af-
ter the proposition to pay $2O,000.000
was made the negotiations proceeded
much more smoothly and were soon
brought to a close.
The American commissioners appear
TO have been of one mind as to the wis
dom of taking over all the Philippines
with the exception of Senator Gray,
who. notwithstanding he signed the
treaty, held out to the last against the
policy of acquiring these islands. In
one notable dispatch he pleaded zeal
ousIy against the policy as unpatriotic,
un-American and inconsistent with
probity and good craftsmanship.

AGAINST BOUNTlES.
Minority Report TO Congress Com
demns the RiII Providing for Pay
Tncnt OF Subsidies to Ship Owners.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The minority
report on the Hanna-Payne shipping
bill was filed in the house Tuesday.
1t is a severe and somewhat personal
arraignmcnt of the mca -ure and those
who would receive bounties under it.
The report says:
This bill is one that was brought to
congress by voluntary committee of
ship owners and ship builders repre-
senting The gentlemen who will re-
ceive the bounty which the bill pro-
poses to give from the public treasury.
The bill as reported to the house is in
almost the exact form and grants to
penny the bounties demanded by the
gentlemen who are to receive them.
The bill is therefore entirely Satisfac-
tory to the interests which have organ
lied this movement to secure the vast
sums carried in the bill as gratuity
to he used in carrying on their private
business and charging the profits
thereof The bill provides not simply
for bountieS, but for bounties which.
once granted, cannot thereafter be taxi
en- away. If this bill be passed the
coGtracts will be quickly made and
once entered into no future congress
can in honor break them
