Nor TO MARRY NoY-CATHoLIc.-
The New York Journal says: lowing
to the reception of orders from the Prop
uganda at Rome, it become known that
Archbishop Farley would not, as has
been stated, officiate at the wedding OF
Reginald Vanderbilt and Miss Kathleen
Nelson. The order is not for this speci-
fic case but is general in its character.
Positive instructions have been received
by the Catholic hierarchy of the United
States forbidding them to officiate at any
more weddings in which one of the
couple is non-Catholic. This applies
to bishops, archbishops and the only
American cardinal. This rule will come
as a surprise to many spring brides con-
templating an imposing ecclesiastical
ceremony. Cardinal Gibbons, Arch
bishop Keane and the late Archbishop
Corrigan have in the past officiated at
these weddings"
Archbishop Farley made an official
denial yesterday of his intention to off,
ciate at the marriage of Miss Nelson and
Mr.. Vanderbilt. The latter is an Epis-
copaliau.

THE PRESIDENT on TRUSTS.

The President during bis trip through
the west stopped at Milwaukee yesterday
where he made speech on the trusts.
He said: "Not only is the legislation ION
the subject of trusts recently enacted eff
fective, but in my judgment it was inn
practicable to attempt more. Nothing
of value is to be expected from ceaseless
agitation for radical and extreme legis-
lation. The people may wisely and with
confidence await the results which are
reasonably to be expected from the i'm
partial enforcement of the laws which
have recently been placed upon the
statute books. Legislation of a general
and indiscriminate character would be
sure to fail, either because it would in
volve all interests in a common ruin or
because it would not really reach any
evil. We have endeavored to provide
a discriminating adoption of the remedy
to the real mischief"

RUTH BRYAN
DEF|ES WILL
OF PARENTS
Refuses to Cast
Aside Man of
Her Choice.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.--It is because of
the calm determination Of Miss Ruth
Bryan-a determination all unshaken by
parental argument and pleading-that this
interesting young woman is to be mar
ried on Saturday, October g. to William
Homer Leavitt. the painter of portraits
When Mr.. and Mrs. William Jennings
Bryan of Lincoln, Neb., send out invita-
tions TO the marriage of their eldest
daughter II will be the close Of a strug-
gle in which the strong will Of the father
has been overcome by the even stronger
VIII of the daughter. Behind the consent
which these invitations Will signify to the
general public is a story OF the supreme
effort put forth by the parents of the
young woman to prevent, and, falling in
that, at least to postpone for one year
or longer the marriage of Miss Ruth to
the young widower. William II. Leavitt
of Newport
These and other points of ordinary i'm
portance are. however, insignificant be-
side the main fact that the day after
Miss Bryan becomes of age-and her own
mistress-she will wed the man of her
choice, she vowed she would do when
she encountered the strongest sort of pa
rental opposition Immediately after that
choice was made known in the family
circle.
Miss Ruth Bryan will be IS years of age
on the morning of Friday. October 2.
