HOW 1T ALL HAD BEEN
PREVIOUSLY ARRANGED.

Special to The Evening Citizen.
Washington, Feb, 17.-When Miss
Alice Roosevelt decided TO figure in
the role of the twelfth bride of the
White house. she expressed a desire
TO have a simple wedding. But the
lines of preparations have extended
until il now takes in some 1900 guests
and the preparations for elegance and
thorOughness surpass anything ever
planned on this continent
Orders for flowers and greens had
been given TO the leading florists of
the country, for the propagating gar
dens and the White house conserva-
tories were entirely inadequate for the
task,
Bride roses viii form the principal
decorations around the bow window
of the east room and on the mantels
in the state drawing rooms. They will
also be placed in huge crystal vases
on the table I'm the state dining room,
and will make the air fragrant along
the corridor where the bridal pageant
will move. The walls of the east room
will be yeiled in graceful fesJCOns Of
smilaS and asparagus, with big true
lovers knots outlined in spring b'os-
sons narcissus. dafOdils and yioleJs.

Washington, Feb. 17.--The Post to-
day says. There is no danger what
ever of an uprising in China against
the foreigners" said Sir Chentung
Liang Chang, the Chinese minister.
1t is true, of course, that there is a
great deal of political agitation in
China, but its object is to create such
an excitement as to cause complica-
tions with a view of Gripping, If not
wholly destroying the present dynasty
| do not mean that China is threatened
with revolution, but a small party of
discontents is striving desperately to
start revolution. But the movement
will not be strong or dangerous. If as
result of the agitation now going on
any worthy foreigner is harmed, the
emperor's soldiers will pounce upon
the community that harbors the mis-
creants and lay IL waste, should they
be unable to find every one of the
scoundrels responsible" He added
that millions of dollars have been ex-
pended in the last six years in bring
ing the army up to the proper condi-
tion of efficiency and it is now able to
cope with any uprising.

R. R. WELLMAN PAINFULLY
INJURED YESTERDAY

r. r. Wellman stepped into a trough
at the saw mill of the American Lum-
Der company's plant yesterday after
noon in order 10 pull out some edg-
ings. While so engaged the end of
one OF the edgings bumped against the
saw in such a manner that Wellman's
arm was thrown into the rapidly re-
volYing teeth. A cash five or six
inches long and two inches deep was
inflicted on the right arm, the saw
piercing the flesh TO the bone. Well
man suffered excruciating pain. DR..
Wylder was called and the injury
given proper attention. Wellman was
more to blame than anyone else for
the accident as he had no business to
be in the trough.

Berlin. Feb. 17.-The German gov

early next week to give the United
States the same tariff rates as are
contained in the commercial treaties

printed in the German press and is

SERIOUS FIGHT IN
HOTEL KITCHEN
While Attacking Watchman
Romero With Knife Oscar
Erickson Badly Injured.
HIS ARM BROKEN IN TWO PLACES

A long heavy range poker, an ugly
knife about a foot in length which
tapered down to a sharp point, and a
leather billy constitute the weapons
which figured conspicuously in a bat
tie royal in a hotel kitchen at about
4 o'clock this morning.
The principals in the melee were
one Oscar Erickson, a cook, who APP
parently has a vicious disposition, and
Amiro Romero, the watchman, who
bears the reputation of being a quiet,
inoffenslvo man.
Erickson is at present at the ST.
Joseph's sanitarium with a badly frac-
tured arm and Romero an inmate of
the city prison.
From facts in the possession of the
police, Erickson. 1t appears, drank
to excess last night and was in an
ugly mood when Romero dropped into
the kitchen on one of his rounds.
Sharp words are reported as being
exchanged between the two men,
whereupon Erickson rushed at Ro-
nero with a long knife. Romero, VINO
had drawn his billy club dropped this
and seized a long stove poker when
ne iSaAlASu tltot EiiNh'OH meant p""i
ness. Swinging the poker with great
force through the air, Romero brought
the poker against the arm of Erickson
which carried the knife. The blow
was sufficient TO fracture Erickson's
arm in two places. He dropped the
knife with a cry Of pain. Patrolman
Rossi appeared upon the scene at
about this time and placed both men
under arrest. Erickson was removed
TO the hospital and Romero to the city
prison. Until Erickson is able to ap-
pear in police court the case will not
be heard by Police Justice Crawford. |

BUT PEACE Is TEMPORARY

st. Petersburg, Feb. 17.-Temporary
peace has been patched up between
Premier Witte and Interior Minister
Durnoyo, and the threatened disrup-
ton of the cabinet has been averted
at moment when the strain was ap-
parently at the breaking point. The
latest development was due to the di-
rect Intervention of the emperor who
insisted that both men should remain
in the cabinet. The agreement, how
ever, rests on the personal influence
of the emperor, who is none too sta
bile. The premiers desire for a relax
alton of repressive measures is under

but the Durnovo and Ignatieff forces
are unwilling to accept defeat as pre-
manent and still have a mighty in

GOVERNOR WAS
THOROUGHLY PLEASED
AFTERMATH OF THE CHIEF Ex-
EcUTIVE'S VISIT TO DUKE CITY
OPPOSED TO FRIPPERY-RE-
COVERED LOST DIAMONDS.

A representative number of the re-
'ception committee from the CONNER
-cial club were at the station this
morning to see Governor Hagerman
off on his return to Santa Fe. Asses
sor George F.. Albright accompanied
the chief executive to the capital.
Governor Hagerman expressed him
self as being thoroughly well pleased
and exceedingly grateful for the treat
meHt he had received while in the
city. The governor was deeply i'm
pressed by the handsome manner in
which the people of Albuquerque do
things. Nothing happened to mar his
pleasure during the two days he re-
mained in the city.
That Governor Hagerman is Oppos-
ed to gaudy frippery became evident
from a little incident which may be
coupled with his preparations to come
10 Albuquerque on last Tuesday. Two
members of the escort which went to
Santa F'e to accompany him to Albu-
querque were discussing what they
would do with their silk hats while
aboard the train.
1T will be all right to wear our hats
to the state house and from the state
house to the train, but what will we
do with them when we get on the
train said one
The other was bothered by the same
question, and finally a telegram was
sent to Secretary McCanna, asking
that the silk hats be left at home
This decision was reached after the
governor had learned of the silll-hat
intention, and had expressed himself
something like this: 81 hope they are
not going to wear silk hats; they are
SO in the way"
But the silk hats were worn and
hung upon a hook like any ordinary
hat; they seemed quite in the proper
place,

sunshine of a perfect February day

lights which had been placed about
the apartment. Some brocaded drap-
cries in gold harmonized with the
ivory white of the room.
Floral Decorations Most Elaborate.
Behind, in the vestibule, was sta
toned the magnificent marine band

been prepared for the wedding, the
music being selected for the most part
by Miss Roosevelt herself. A few
minutes before noon, Mrs. Roosevelt,
accompanied by the members of her
immediate family, descended the main
staircase and under escort of several
military aides, entered the east room
by the main doors. Promptly on the
