on the border of the new country tor
two years or more, and the last night
of their long vigil was the most trying
they had experienced. The line was made

The crowd before each booth elected

Minnesota's Glory Departing.

Secretary Long directed that the old
frigate Minnesota be dropped from the
navy list and sold at price not less than
$4,000. The Minnesota is probably des-
tined to engage in the Atlantic Coast
coal trade. The Minnesota was one OF
the few Union vessels that escaped de-
struction from the terrible onslaught
made by the Confederate monitor Vir-
g.ria when she sailed out of Norfolk to
attack the Federal squadron lyijs in
Hampton Roads.

NEWPORT, R. L, Jan. 14-Although
In the depth of winter, this we'll known
watering place took on a semblance of
its summer gayety, because of the
wedding of Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt,
probably the most wealthy of the third
generation of the Vanderbilt family, and
Miss Elsie French, charming Newport
girl and former playmate of the groom,
the daughter of Mrs Frederick Orme
French, a resident of the city for many
years.
A brighter sun never shone for any
bride, and in spite of crispness in the
air, it did not seem to be a winters day.
The ceremony took place at noon in the
Zabriski Memorial Church of st. John
the Evangelist, far up in the old north
part of the city, on the very shores of
Narrag ansett bay, once the center of
Viewpoints fashion, but now far removed
from the social whirl of Bellevue ave

own place of worship and her own home
for the scene of the marriage, instead
of selecting the more pretentious but less

YOUNG COUPLE IN BOSTON.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vanderbilt on Their
HONEYMOON


Honeymoon.
BOSTON, Jan. 14.-Mr. and Mrs AL
fred Gwynne Vanderbilt are believed TO
be stopping at Hotel Somerset tonight, al
though no one at the hotel will admit
that they are here.
The Post tomorrow VIII say:
The bridal couple came here in a spec
ial train, were unobserved at the term
inal station when they left the train,
and were unattended. From the rear car
two trunks were handed out. One bore
the initials "E. F. and the other "a G.
"" This was the only baggage carried.
Calling one of the public carriages the
husband called out Ito the Touraine."
However, Mr. Vanderbilt soon changed
his mind and was driven to the West
minister. Again a change in the pro-
gramme was made, and instead of alight-
ing here, fresh orders were given and
the carriage rapidly turned and drove
past the public library to Commonwealth
avenue and finally halted in front IF
the Hotel Somerset. The clerks were
surprised when Mr. Vanderbilt presented
himself and asked that his presence at
the hotel be kept a secret
The Gen. Miles suite, so-called, was
assigned to Mr.. and Mrs. Vanderbilt
Dinner was sent to the apartments.
1t is understood that they were to at
tend the theater, and a carriage was or
dered, but this was later countermanded.

ROUTE PLANNED FOR A NEW
TRANSCONTINENTA THROUGH
LINE
PORTLAND, ME-, TO VANCOUVER
Chicago, Duluth and Winnipeg Arc
on the Line, but the Twin
Cities Are Left Out In
the CO.d.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE Record tomor-
row will say: Another ocean-to-ocean
railway scheme is reported to be taking
form. 1t involves two Chicago lines
the Grand Trunk and the Wisconsin Cen
trail, the former being the father of the
movement, and provides for the Grand
Trunks assumption of control of the
Wisconsin Central.
This is the route in mind: Portland
Me-, to Chicago, Grand Trunk Chicago
to Ashland, Wis, Wisconsin Central;
Ashland to Duluth, Northern Pacific or a
new line; Duluth to Winnipeg, line pro-
Kenzie, and Winnipeg to Vancouver, line
projected by James Dunsmuir.
The Grand Trunk is said to have long
desired to push into Manitoba in order
to offer competition to its powerful rival,
the Canadian Pacific. Negotiations for
control of the Wisconsin Central. it is
asserted have been carried on for more
than three months. The Wisconsin Cen
trail now has an entrance into Duluth
from Ashland, it's northern terminus. over
the Northern Pacific. If the transcon-
tinental scheme is carried out, a new inle
eighty miles in length will have to be
built, to connect Ashland with Duluth.
There are strong indications that the
Northern Pacific, the Great Northern and
the Canadian Pacific lines have antici-
pated a transcontinental movement on
the part of the Grand Trunk, Mckenzie
and Dunsnuir. 1t is said that the Lake
Superior, Manitoba company, which filed
articles of Incorporation short time ago.
was designed to keep the Mckenzie Du-
luth- Winnipeg project from being car
ried out.
The Canada-Atlantic company is said
to be the power behind the Lake Su-
perior and Manitoba
Control of the Wisconsin Central by
the Grand Trunk-strong traffic alAanco
between the roads, railroad officials say
would change the present complexion Of
things greatly. The Chicago-St Paul
lines now throw a great deal of business
into the hands of the Grand Trunk owing
to the strained relations between them
and the 500 Line, which completes with
the Grand Trunk.
This consideration of the Chicago-st.
Paul lines probably would be done away
with If the Grand Trunk tied up with
the Wisconsin Central.
