Newport, R. l., April 14.-An exile
from New York because of his supposed
knowledge of the interior workings OF

noon today by the rites of the Roman
Catholic church, to Miss Kathleen Neil
son That society might be in attend
ance at this out of season Newport event
with as little inconvenience as possible
special transportation arrangements
were made for them at the expense OF
the Vanderbilt family, while a half
dozen fashionable boarding houses were
opened for their entertainment while
here. The ientire Vanderbilt stables
were concentrated here to care for the
wedding guests, and shortly before noon
the many traps, painted in the Wander
bilt colors, began to roll up to the en-
trance at "Arleigh." There was an
orchestra of 40 selected musicians who
rendered the music during the cere-
mony and breakfast which followed.
1t was high noon when the bride, rest
ing on the arm of her uncle, Frederick
Gebhart, preceded by Miss Chiffon
Kemp, niece of the bride, and Miss
Muriel Vanderbilt, cousin of the groom,
as little flower girls, and Miss Isabelle
May, of Washington, Miss Florence
Twombley, of New Jersey, Miss Evelyn
Parsons and Hiss Natalie Schenck, OF
New York, the bridesmaids, formed a
procession at the head of the stairs and
marched down and across the hall to the
altar, where the groom stood in waiting.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
William B. Meenan, of st. Mary's
Church. He was attended by a half
dozen altar boys. The groom was at
tended by his brother, Alfred G. Wander
bilt as best man, while the ushers were
Messrs. Robert L. Gerry, Jules Blanc
| Nelson, brother of the bride, John
Clinton Grey, jr., T. NJ. Adams and
Robert Clark. After the ceremony the

gown Of chiffon and point lace and wore
a point lace veil, the same as that worn
by her mother and grandmother on their
wedding days. She carried bouquet
which was marvel, it being of clusters
of orange blossoms and orchids, the lat
ter being very scarce now and requiring
an extensive search of the flower markets
to select acceptable blooms The presents
presented a most magnificent display OF
costly tokens and because of their great
value, were closely guarded. In fact
there was a most strict policing of the
entire premises.
Cornelius Vanderbilt, who is abroad
for his health, sent wireless congratu-
lation to his brother this morning.
This is believed to be the first message OF
the kind ever sent.

Body Discovered by a Woman.

New York, April IA woman s
curiosity led to the discovery of CHASTITY
murder this morning. Mrs. Francis
Connors left her home at $3.50 this morn
ing for the grocery. Turning the corner
of Eleventh street, manufacturing dis
tricf. she saw barrel standing outside
the curb in front of the sawmill of the
New York Mallet and Handle Works.
There was a coat over the top of the
barrel. Thinking some Long Island
farmer had accidentally dropped a barrel
of produce she decided to investigate.
She lifted the coat and then screamed in
fright, when she saw the hand and feet
of a man protIuding. A Waterman and
policeman were soon on the scene. They
found that the man, an Italian, of the
better class, had been murdered, the
body doubled up and showed into the
barrel. 1t had probably been carted
from some of the Italian quarters of the
city to the spot at which it was found.
The police are convinced that the man
was slain as the result of a vendetta or
Malta plot. They expect difficult task
in tracing the murderers.

SENATOR CULLoM, of Illinois, chair
man of the Senate committee on foreign
relations and republican leader in his
branch of Congress, now predicts that no
tariff revision legislation will be attempt
ed until after the next Presidential
election, and says, in his opinion, 1t Is
not likely that there will be any tarlli
revision of regular character for some
time to come. Only last year the re-
pubIicans promised that the tariff would
be revised by cts friends" in short
time, but they are growing holder now
and the number of "stand patters' Is
increasing. But what do promises made
by republican politicians amount TO-

ANCIENT RACE IN PERU.-It is de-
clared that the earliest American civiliza-
ton, far antedating the generally accept
ed limits, has been traced in Peru by Dr.
Max Uhle, director of the anthropologi-
cal excavations and explorations of the
University of California in that country,
where heretofore Inca traditions had led
scientists to believe Peruvian civilization
existed only few centuries before the
coming ofthe Spaniards. The archaeology
cal work of DR.. Uhle is said to have es-
tablished the fact that great civilization
hourished 1000 years earlier at the least
and that cultured race, of higher devel-
opment than the Incas, was in existence
before the Trojan war. These announce
ment follow a study made in the two ex-
petitions which DR.. Uhle led in recent
years at the expenses of Mrs. Phoebe
Hearst and under the auspices of the Uni
yersity OF California.

SCORED IoN.-Winchester
circles were stirred to the depths Sunday
night by the severe arraignment of his
former congregation by Rev. T. Mar
shall West. Rev. Mr.. West has been
pas. cor of the Market Street Methodist
Episcopal Church until the recent Balti
more Conference, which transferred him
to Hereford, Baltimore county, Md.
During his farewell sermon Sunday
night Rev. Mr.. West charged that the
Market Street congregation had defraud-
ed him out of a portion Of his salary !;
that the members, desiring to get rid of
him. had purpOsely failed to cooperate
with him, and he added that when he
took his departure this week he wanted
no member of the congregation to bid
him farewell or to express their regret
at his leaving. He then arraigned the
official board of the church in scath-
ing manner, and said his chief regret
over the whole matter was that he had
not put them out of office long ago.
His repeated use of the term "defraud''
aroused the greatest Indignation, al
though Mr.. West declared that through
the congregation defrauding him be
had been compelled to borrow money to
pay off his bills in Winchester and get
out of town.
