FORMING PLANS
 ID DEFEAT BRYAN Several Democrats and Others
 Confer Together SIBERIAN LEApS FORCES Committee Is Appointed To Wait Upon Bryan and Urge Him To Get
 Out of the Race for the
 Presidency.
STEPHAN LEAps FORCES

Washington, January 25.-(Special)- Plans for an active campaign to defeat William Jennings Bryan for the demo- cratic nomination for President at the national convention in Denver next July were perfected here today at a conference which lasted for the greater part of the day. It was decided to begin corre- spondence with democratic leaders in all sections of the country at once in order to ascertain whether or not 1t would be possible to sidetrack Bryan.
 This conference was attended by Sen ator James K. Jones of Arkansas, Will liam F. Sheehan, Perry Belmont Col B. G. M. Harvey, James Smith, Jr of New Jersey and others.
 Thomas F. Ryan, who arrived here late last night, and is stopping with friends near Washington, was consulted frequent ly over the telephone by MT. sheehan.
 Two plans were agreed upon, the first being to urge MT Bryan to take himself out of the race permanently by inducing him to issue a statement that he will not be a candidate under any conditions. Fail ing in this, a movement similar to that Indnlpulateu hyd dHO bciiiionl louT years ago by which the nomination Of Judge Parker was brought about is to be inaugurated at once.
 Since Wall street Is beginning to fear that It will be unable to prevent the nom ination of Secretary Taft. and is seek ing to force the nomination of a candidate who will refuse to allow the department of justice to continue the many suits which have been instituted against the large and powerful trusts, it is under stood that Senator Jones was selected as the man to see MT. Bryan tomorrow and urge him to get out of the race. Shee- han and Colonel Harvey, who is per- these friends there will be a political ex- hearsed the arguments to be made to MT. Bryan to induce him to withdraw again and again today.
 Bryan's friends are in an ugly mood tonight, and if he follows the advice of thesef friends there will be a political ex- plosion when Jones sees him.
 If the plans discussed today are adopt ed the great railroad systems of the coun- try which are manipulated in Wall street will be utilized to obtain control of the democratic delegates throughout the va rious states through which they pass.

ALL THE FAMILY
 ARE RECONC|LED
Gladys VanderbiIt's Brothers
 Will Meet the Count
JOY BELLS WILL SOON RING
Wedding of Miss Vanderbilt to Scion of Hungarian Nobility Will Take Place With Great Splendor
 and Much Ceremony.

New York, January 25.-(Special )-An eleventh hour reconciliation, effected only by most strenuous measures, tonight brought the brothers of Miss Gladys Vanderbilt, the bride-to-be, inte harmony with her mother and Count Laszlo Szech- enyi
 The elder son, Cornelius, agreed to his mothers wish that he come back to his rightful place as head of the family and give away his sister to the Hungarian nobleman. Alfred, the second son, con- sented to attend the wedding, bury his unfriendliness and greet Count Szechenyi as brother.
 Reginald, the third son, who brought the reconciliation, gladly gave his con- sent to give up his black satin knicker- booker and his Fauntleroy costume he was to have worn as head of the family and was equally happy in turning over to Cornelius the task of givnig Miss Gladys away. A jolly family dinner was held in the Vanderbilt mansion tonight to cele- brate the reconciliation.
 The reconciliation included Harry Payne Whitney, too, it was said, who all along has sided with Alfred Wander bilt in opposition to the marriage.
 With the reunion of the family every- thing Is in readiness for the wedding on Monday.
 At 10 minutes after the hour of noon Gladys Vanderbilt will become the Count ess Szechenyi. a subject of Franz .Jo- seph, Emperor of Hungary
 The ceremony that will effect the transit ton will be most elaborate, the most continental-like that New York has ever seen. There will be glitter of red and gold in military uniforms and choristers cossacks, shmmer of lace and satin in women's gowns and priestly surplices and stoles.
 The high voices of sopranos, the peal of a great organ, the flash of gems the assembling of 200 of the richest and most exclusive society folk in the country and the display of hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gifts-all these will be regarded as fitting features of the making of an American girl into an European title bearer. In tropical bower the scores of palm trees make an avenue through which the bridal party will pass. More costly clustering palms at one end of the ball room with their 1.-the branches form a natural canopy. Delicate grass and mosses form the base of these. Entwining about the trunks and limbs of the trees are 5000 lavendar orchids. All are of just the same tint, practically of just the same size. It is the most perfectly matched and largest collection of rare blooms ever assembled. The or chids here and in other rooms cost | $4O,000
 The marriage will be all over within about 10 minutes. Four hours later, after the good wishes and good byes have been said. the Count and Countess will de- part for Newport.
 There in The Breakers, the vast white marble summer home of the brides moth CT. they will spend honeymoon of seven days. On February they will sail for Europe on the Kaiser Wilhelm IT.

1t was strange place for the dcliv-
cry of such message, and the strange
ness of it was Intensified to Shirley by
the curious glance that passed between
John Armitage aud Jules Chauveuet
Shirley remembered afterward that rs
the attaches words rang out In the
room Armitage started. clinched his
hands and caught his breath In Il man
ner very uncommon in men unless they
are greatly moved. The ambassador
walked directly from the room with
bowed head, aud every one waited in
silent sympathy until he had gone.
The word passed swiftly through the
great house. and through the open win
dows the servants were heard crying
loudly for Baron Won Marhofs car
riage in the court below.
"The king is dead. Long live the
king! murmured Shirley.
Long live the kingr' repeated
Chauveuet and Mrs. Sanderson in uni

mastering a phrase they were teaching
him. raised his head and said. with an
