CHEEKS GREW PALE
BENEATH THE ROUGE
Couple We're Known as "PittSburq
Prisoners" on Voyage Across
the OCedn---ShOW Girl Did
Not Once Leave Her
Cabin.

Paris, May 23.-William f.. Corey
and his bride, the former Mabelle
Gilman, are now sequestered i'm the
Chateau Villegensis, which was oc-
cupied by the actress before her
marriage.
The multi-millionaire and his new
wite arrived in Cherbourg Tuesday
on the Kaiser Wilhelm II from New
York.
From Cherbourg the Corey's motor
ed directly to the Chateau Villegen-
sis. 1t was the intention of the cou-
pie to come direct to Paris and Corey
cabled from New York asking that
suite of rooms be reserved in the
Hotel Ritz, Elysee palace, Dominica,
or some of the other exclusive hotels.
Curiously enough, none of these ho-
tells could accommodate the newly
married couple.
Called the "Pittsburg Prisoners"
During their entire trip across the
ocean the Coreys remained In the Sc
clusion of the captains suite. Mr..
Corey once or twice descended to the
promenade deck, but his bride did
not appear The passengers aboard
called the couple the "Pittsburg Pris-
oners." They are the only bridal
couple who have ever been known to
spend the first week of their honey
moon locked up in the cabin of a
steamship.
IL such was his object, Mr.. Corey
obtained his $4,000 worth of privacy,
because the stairs leading to the boat
deck where the bridal couple was
situated were roped off so that the
officers, when going to the bridge for
duty, were compelled to make the
ascent hand over hand up ropes rig
ged for that purpose. The bride, who
was indisposed during the first two
days of the voyage, remained in the
green boudolr. All meals were serv-
ed I'm the white drawing room, four
stewards being employed to attend
the couple at meal times. Mrs.
Corey's own Italian maid was also in
attendance. In addition TO these there
was corps of five servants, besides
Mr.. Coreys valet. who lowered con-
stantiy within call
Corey Didn't Seem 20 a'.otsa
The procession of servants com
ing and going up and down the pri-
Vate stairway during meals never
failed to interest the passengers. Mr..
Corey throughout the voyage main
tanned a dignifed silence when walk
ing on deck, kept entirely aloof from
the rest of the passengers and neg
lected to speak to any of them, al
though he knew many by sight. He
walked at all times with bowed head
and seemed to avoid recognition.
Owing to the steel mans wealth
the stewards expected handsome tips
but found that Corey was no more
generous than the ordinary paSsen-
ger. When the tender came along
side the steamship In Cherbourg, the
Coreys remained In seclusion until
the other passengers had been taken
aboard the tender. and the bride
groom, carrying a Yalise, plunged
1nu-f, H. het.., FnfIAV4F-
ing and clutching his coattalls. Corey
pushed his way through the baggage
men like football player.
Bride Pale Under the Rouge.
Here she is! Here she is!" eX-
claimed a group of women passen-
gers, who would not be denied a
glimpse of the bride. The passen-
gers on the tender stared at the cou-
pie as they pushed down the gangway.
Corey pretended TO appear debon-
nair and the bride seemed nervous.
Her face was pale under the rouge
she wore. Her travelling gown was
green and white striped. She wore
a Neapolitan hat. with yellow plume
and a motor veil. When the tender
left the side of the steamship, Corey
acknowledged the farewell salute Of
the captain, but ignored the remarks
OF the passengers,
A correspondent spoke to Corey
and informed him about the troubles
the Rev. John l.. Clark. who married
them, was having Mr.. Corey heat
edly said:
you cannot tell me anything that
will interest me-"
When informed that it was report
ed he would resign the presidency
of the United States Steel corpora
ton, Corey snappishly said
81 have nothing to say"
The Bride Was Distressed.
"Oh, do say something" the bride
interrupted.
NO" Corey exclaimed, 81 have
nothing TO say about my marriage or
the steel company. That is my busi-
ness only"
When a reporter asked his future
plans Corey relented and said
Were staying In Europe until the
middle of July. We are going first
to Paris. our movements thereafter
are not settled. That is all | have
to say"
Corey and his bride got through
the customs house first and were
whirled away i'm a motor car before
the train carrying the passengers to
Paris started
