WASHINGTON SOCIETY SHOCKED
Engagement of senator Depew.
Niece to Lieut.. Edie Broken.

W 81
Engagement of senator Depew's
Niece to Lieut.. Edie Broken.
Washington. Feb. Ex-senator Depew
last night announced that the engage
ment between his niece, Miss Paulding.
and Lieut.. Eide had been broken off.
Further than this neither the senator
Ior Mr.. Edie would speak.
The news was a surprise to every one,
and no reason can be given for this sud
den change of plans. The young people
have been devoted to each other ever
since Miss Paulding has been in Wash
ington.
There are several surmises as to the
provoking cause of the announcement,
but accounts as to when the actual rup-
sture came about differ. From one source
it is declared that the young people had
a quarrel that originated at the Mardi
Gras ball given by Assistant Secretary
of State and Mrs. Hill Tuesday evening,
at which ball Miss Pauldfng, Lieut. Eide
and Senator Depew We're guests. From
another source it is declared that they
were ont to dinner on Sunday evening,
but have not been seen anywhere since
Miss Paulding had accepted an invita-
ton to Mrs. Hills fancy dress ball for
Tuesday night, and the hostess did not
know that she did not intend to accept.
Cards had already been printed, but
these invitations to The wedding had not
been issued. 1t vac to have been the
great event of Easter week and would
have been attended by al the pomp Of

q church ceremony. Another rumor is
that Senator Depew gent for Lieut..
Eide Monday afternoonsa and had a con-
ference, With him. They Were together
somewhat over an hour and the pres
ent move was decided upon at that time.
Lieut.. Eide is. not Il man OF means. He
has only his officers pay and also is.the
support of a widowed mother.
1t was thought last Year when Ii was
known that the young people We're fond
of each other, his lack of means would
stand in the way Of the match, but Sem
ator Depew came to the aid of the
young people He recently purchased
a house for them on N street, near the
British embassy and this house was
nearly ready Tor occupancy.
This house the senator had decided to
his niece. Miss Panlding had purchased,
not only her troiisseau, but furniture
and decorations for the new house.
Lieut.. Edie, who was born and bred
here in Washington, was somewhat
younger than his Intended BRIDE and
his mother VAS always opposed to the
match. Beyond these facts there is lit
tie to announce.

New York, Feb. 21.--W. T. Stead in a
Special dispatch to the Journal and Adj;

Russia does not mean to quarrel
