The marriage is performed by Rev. Chas.

his official mail was being regularly tam
pered with by the British authorities
Mr. Macrum stated that his vice con-
sui, Mr.. Van Ameringen, closed up. his
business, took the oath of allegiance to

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 15.-It- is
being related here tonight that both ex-
President Harrison and his wife were
systematically robbed and otherwise
swindled during their Paris visit last sum
mer when the general was engaged in the
Venezuelan claims affair. The .ex-presi-
dent was asked about the matter tonight
and he confirmed the story, although he
said he did not know that 1t was abroad
and did not authorize it. He now thinks
that a young Frenchman, who acted as
his valet, was the swindler, or, ii not, he
knew all about the farcenies.
Aside from sums of money that the ex-
president missed, the boldest and most
accomplished operation consisted In Sc
