CHURCH NOT IN SCANDAL.
Bishop Roane Comments Upon
Marriage of Vanderbilt and
Mrs. Rutherford.

Albany, n. Y, May 2. = The Right
Rev. William Doane, Protestant Epis-
copal Bishop of Albany, who is known
throughout the United States as be-
ing strenuously opposed to the mar
riage of divorced persons, asserts that
the church of England had nothing to
do with the recent marriage of Will
liam K. Vanderbilt and Mrs. Ruther-
furd in London beyond the fact that
the ceremony was sanctioned by one
of its chancellors, whom he regards in
the same light as a civil official who
issues licensee in this country.
The bishop said: cit is very
grave scandal, but the church of Eng
land had nothing to do with it, be-
yond the fact that Mr.. Vanderbilt Sc.
cured a clergyman of the church to
marry him. He applied to the chan
cellor for a license and got it. The
chancellor's position in England is
about the same as that of civil Off
cial who issues license in this country.

DAUGHTER FOUND MOTHER SERVANT
Wealthy Woman of Wilkesbarre,
Mentally Unbalanced, Seeks
Service as Domestic.

Newark, N. j., May Mrs. EN-
am Wallace, wealthy resident of
Wilkesbrare, Pa, who DISAPPEARED
from her home soon after the death
of her husband, about five months age,
have been found by her daughter liv-
ing as a servant in the home of resi-
dent of this city.
Although Mrs. Wallace recognized
her daughter, she remembered moth
ing of her home or life before she
came to Newark. She does not even
know how she got to this city.
When Mr.. Wallaces husband died,
she became the sole owner of his es-
tate, valued at about 800, 900. His
death so preyed on her mind that she
became mentally unbalanced and wan
dered away from home. When she
appeared in this city seeking employ
ment, she could not tell her own
name or any names OF the members OF
her family. All she knew was that
she was in Newark and wished to
get work to keep from starving. The
family with which she was found
took her in and found her as compe-
tent a servant as if she had been bred
to that calling. She was willing and
accomplishing and apparently in per.
feet possession of her mental faculties
except memory.
After the disappearance of Mrs
Wallace from Wilkesbarre, every effor
was made to find her. After Ions
search, the police and all of her rela
tives except her daughter came to TIN
conclusion that she had met death b,
suicide or in some other way, or neve
would be heard of again. But he
daughter did not dispare. She fol
lowed every clew no matter how lit
tie it might promise. 1t was Gle,
of the slenderest sort that led her t
this city.

BRYAN ANNOUNCES
That He Will Not Compromise =
He Will Stay in
Politics.

Lincoln, Neb, May 3.-That Will
liam J. Bryan means to stay IN poll
tics. and will make no compromise
with reorganizers of the democratic
party, is apparent by his utterances in
the current issue oft he Commoner.
Mr.. Bryan vigorously defends his po-
sition, and significantly refers to the
fact that he is only forty-three years
old, and may live to see ten more
presidential campaigns.
"Those who believe in the Kansas
City platform, - he boldly announces,
"are not ashamed of the part they
played, and they do not intend to sur
renedr the control of the party into
the hands of those who have openly
antagonized those principles and who
boast of their intention, if successful,
to take the party back to the position
which it occupied under Mr.. Cleve
lands administration.
Preceding this defiant message, Mr..
Bryan defends his actions as the STAN
dard bearer of the party through two
campaigns. He renews his plea for
the restoration of silver, and explains
his detection in argument on that
question in his last struggle for the
presidency on the ground that the
convention made imperialism the
paramount issue. No amount of vii
LITIGATION, he says, will deter the sup
porters of the Kansas City platform
from pressing their CLANS at the next
national convention.
MACK WANTS CLEVELAND.
St. Louis, May 3.-Cleveland for
president, on a platform for tariff
for revenue only" is the program sug
gested, with some reservation, for
the democratic party in 1904 by Norman
E. Mack, democratic national COM
mitteeman from New York and editor
of the Buffalo Times. Mr.. Mack, in
an interview tonight, declared that
Cleveland was more popular in New
York now than ever before. and that
he can certainly carry the state against
Roosevelt.
The ovation given to Mr.. Cleveland
at the Liberal Arts building Thurs
day, when the cheers for the ex-presl-
dent were as hearty and prolonged as
those of Mr.. Roosevelt himself, have
evidently convinced Mr.. Mack that
Cleveland's popularity is not confined
to New York. Mr.. Mack said:
"There certainly will be a reorgan-
ization of the party next year. Every
thing goes to point this out plainly.
The issue of free silver is dead now,
whatever it might have been in 1896,
and imperialism is hardly less dead.
The next campaign will be fought
along lines very different from those
which marked the last two national
contests. 1t is hardly to be thought
that Mr.. Bryan will again ask for the
nomination, though he will be a
powerful figure in the convention, one
to be reckoned with.
But Mr.. Bryan cannot afford to
go contrary to the expressed will of
his party. 1 did not favor Cleveland
when he was nominated, but l voted
for him. If Cleveland is nominated
again I expect Mr.. Bryan to support
him just as l will"
