Washington, March 9-Philander c.
Knox, jr. has been cut off with an al
lowance of about 500 a month. which
his mother will allow him. 1t was learned
here to-day on good authority, although
10 member of the Knox family would
make any statement IN regard to the
matter
When young Knox arrived here yes
terday to seek his fathers pardon for
His hasty marriage, his bride and her
mother remained at a local hotel. with
the expectation that they would be re-
ceived with open arms by the young
mans parents. Such was not the case,
however So they returned to Providence
Providence, March 9.-Phnander c.
Knox. jr.. son of the Secretary of State,
and his bride, who was May Boiler, a
young department store girl came back
from Washington to-day. They were
driven directly to Mrs. Knoxs apart
ments. at No. 147 Benefit street.
In a statement made :his afternoon
Knox said:
1t has been said that my father threw
me out of the house when l saw him in
Washington. This is untrue Ny father
and l had no quarrel and we parted
friends. except for the fact that he does
not approve of my marriage. I went to
father and said, Father, I am married
Father replied, I am sorry that yo1 are.
/ am sorry that you took the step you
did. Now that you are married it will
be up to you to shift for yourself
Mrs. Knox is my ideal. she is fitted
for me in every way and I know that
she would be accepted by my father
should he ever sec her, as I hope he
will.
Mrs. knox is just sweet girl. with
plenty of common sense, pretty. charm
ing, vivacious and entertaining, who
dresses we'll and enjoys life. I vas
through With school when was mar
ried and am ready 10 go out and fight
for a living"
Mrs Knox also gave out statement
in which she said
'I have married Mr.. Knox because ]
loved him and know that he loves me.
OF course. 7 regret that Tips father IS
not willing to forgive us and accept us
into his good graces, but that is some
thing which we cannot help, and Tip
know. will go out and make the best
of it,
Tip is the nickname by which young
Knox vas called by his intimates at
school.
Mrs. Daniel Geary. mother of Mrs
Philander G. Knox, jr.. is very indig-
nant over the attitude of Secretary Knox
in not receiving her daughter. She said
tonight:
Secretary of State Knox is snob in
turning my daughter down without
hearing May is the equal of any girl
in the United states as far rs character
and reputation go. and even If she is a
poor girl that is no reason why Secrc-
tay Knox should refuse to receive her.
II am contemplating a trip to Wash
ington with my daughter and her hus-
band to sec what objections Secretary
Knox has 10 my daughter becoming the
wife Of his son. Secretary Knox,
know. would do the same thing his son
aid if he we're placed IN the same place
| know that when | was a girl eloped
seems to have hold Of botn my Tamhy
and that of Mr.. KnoX's.
II think that ii Secretary Knox could
only see my daughter he would receive
her with open arms. If | go to Wash
ington | will show Secretary Knox few
things. even If he is a man in high
position My daughter could not stand
TO be separated from her husband. She
would die ! know. il they were parted,
so il would be futile and. moreover
tragedy. for Secretary Knox to attempt
TO get his son To give the girl up
Young Knox tonight confirmed
Washington dispatch that he has been
cut off from financial support of his
family, He will now draw $i0a month
income from his own property, inherited
from his grandfather. His mother he
said is trustee OF the fund.
