merous friends could witness the cere-
mony Canon Sheppard, sub-dean OF
the Chapels Royal, conducted the office.
assisted by the Rev. D. Anderson, the
rector Bishop Lawrence, being unable
to be present as had been hoped.
/ Seldom has so lovely a bride been
seen. Her gown had the charm of SIM
plicity, being of soft white satin'
trimmed with old lace, and the train be-
ing attached to the shoulders by Knots
of satin. Her lace cap was kept in
place by garland of orange blossoms
and was covered by a veil. Three chill
dren were trainbearers and seven brides
maids in ivory satin chiffon, with lace
collars. caps and wells, completed the
beautiful procession. The bridesmaids
were Lady Theodosia Acheson, Lady
Victoria Stanley, Miss Elsie Nicoll. OF
New York; Mile. Irene de la Grange,
Miss Camilla Morgan, the Hon. Rhoda
Ashley and Miss Marian Scranton
The Minister to Rumania gave away
the bride and Viscount Acheson was at
tended by his brother. Lieutenant rat
rick Acheson, of the British navy.
ogden Mills Reid was one of the ushers-
The wedding music by the choir OF the
Chapel Royal was most beautifully
sung. Ambassador Reid, Mrs. Reid,
Mrs. Carter, the Earl and Countess OF
Gosford, Louise, Duchess of Devon
shire: the Hon. John Ward and Mrs
Ward, the Duchess of Marlborough. the
Duchess of RoXburghe and many mem
bers of the diplomatic corps were at the
church.
Mr.. and Mrs Carter received about
eight hundred guests at Dorchester
House. which was lent by the American
Amba ssador. The decorations were as
simple as the brides gown, consisting
mainly Of pink roses massed IN the
stairway and rooms. Among the guests
were the Countess of Londesborough,
"a. u
Denison. Dowager Lady Hastings. John
S. Sargent, Edwin A. Abbey. Consul
General Griffiths, Lord Charles Montagu
and nearly all the smart Americans IN
London.
This was one of the weddings of the
season. in which the late King Edward
had shown much interest because OF the
close connection of the parents OF the
bridegroom with the royal household and
his majesty's personal friendship for Mr..
Carter. King Edward had expressed his
intention of attending the ceremony
with the Queen and other members OF
the royal family.
Among the gifts of the bridegroom to
hts bride was an automobile, in which
Lord and Lady Acheson will make a
HONEYMOON trip in France.

cities of Canada as far west as Winnipeg,

way of obtaining an insight into the con-
ditions of Canadian agriculture. From
Winnipeg the party will cross the border

Grim Tragedy of Great House.

The tragedy which ! mention above as
having led to the expatriation of most Of
the Moerner family from Sweden and their
adoption of the German nationality was the
death of Count Bror Moerner and, the trial
of his brother. Count John, on the charge
of having murdered him. Count Bror was
found one morning dead in his bed, with
two bullet wounds in his head. and by his
side on the floor revolver. identified as
having belonged to Count John.
When placed on trial John declared that
he had called upon his brother to ask him
for loan of money In order to pay
pressing debt Of honor that permitted of
no delay. and that he had brought his re-
volver along for the purpose of blowing
out his own brains in the event OF his
being unable to obtain the funds. He
added that on his elder brother declining
TO accede to his request he had endeay-
ored to execute his intention whereupon
Bror had jumped upon him for the pur-
pose of preventing his suicide, and that
In the struggle the revolver had gone off
accidentally, inflicting q wound on the
head of Bror. The latter, SO John de-
clared, had suffered such acute agony from
the pain that he had entreated his brother
TO put him out of his misery by a second
shot. John claims TO have declined, but
admits that he handed the pistol to his
brother, which was thereupon discharged
for a second time with Immediately fatal
effect There are some people at Stock
holm who do not hesitate to assert that
John himself fired the second shot In def
erence to his brothers anguished appeals.
The appearance of the wounds and their
character. however. seemed to bear out
Johns story, and this. together with the
tremendous influence welded by his family
in Sweden, led to his acquittal of any
criminal intent
It was Immediately after this that the
Moerners Mortified by the notoriety In con-
nection with the affair, left Sweden, John
coming TO America and the late Count
William settling at Dusseldorf, after hav-
ing obtained in 1893 from Emperor William
a patent authorizing him to his Swed-
tsh title of count in Germany.

RUSSIA'S DREADNOUGHTS
Four Giants Will Be Anticipated
Before Completion.
st. Petersburg correspondence of the Berlin
Lokaianzeiger.

Lokaianzeiger
What little information we now have
about the new Russian Dreadnoughts tells
more than many words could do. The four
now in course of construction, the Sevasto-
pol, the Petropavlovsk, the Gangut and the
Poltava, are each 800 feet long, 50 feet wide
and q feet inches deep, and have dis
placement of 23,t00 tons. They are TO be of
4, 600 horsepower and will have a speed OF
% knots. The first two are being built by
the Baltic shipworks, the last two at the
imperial navy yard. Almost endless differ
ences of opinion have divided the Russian
naval authorities on the subject of these
ships, but now all are agreed upon the plans
that unite the greatest number of diSad-
.vantages from a technical point OF view.
There is, in the first place. the arma-
ment. 1t consists of twelve Pinch guns,
which are to be mounted in four revolving
tration of fire within a limited space is
questionable and has been condemned by
English experts on account of the great
the disposition of the other guns. The six
teen 47-nch guns are placed so close TO the
turrets that they cannot be served when
the big guns are firing on account of the
strength of the wave of explosion. The
ammunition for the smaller guns is stored
against the sides of the ships. which in
creases the danger of explosion. The ar
NOR is sS inches thick, therefore not strong
enough TO Withstand big gun fire, but IL
cannot be increased unless there is a re-
duction of weight elsewhere. To achieve
this the revolving turrets have been recon-
structed. Each of them weighed 1000 tons
more than the turrets of this type on other
ships. The steering apparatus is placed in
such an exposed position that q single we'll
directed shell would destroy ii entirely.
The Navy Department states that the
four Dreadnoughts will he READY in three
years, but this term will have TO be in
creased, like the original estimate OF cost.
As proof Of this assertion may be quoted
the Andrei Perwoswanny, which has been
IN course OF construction now for eight
years. and whose estimated cost has already
been exceeded by some 10000 900 roubies
English engineers who have seen the plans
for these ships consider the money appro-
priated for their construction as wasted
Armor has been sacrificed TO heavy arma~
ment. and the boilers will not suffice 10
develop a speed OF % knots for any length
of time. The Russian Dreadnoughts will
be antiquated before they are ready for
launching.

trance OF the Baltic
Napoleon did not like Bernadotte. He
was Jealous of him, especially of his mill
tary genius. But Moerner and his friends.
with Bernadotte and his numerous ad-
herents, played their cards SO we'll that
Napoleon. without giving any written an
swer to the King, permitted Moerner to
return to Stockholm. where the coun. COM
munfcated to Charles XIII and to the lead
ing statesmen that the Duke of Augusten-
burg was particularly obnoxious to Ma
poleon and TO France and likewise init
mated that the Emperor had suggested
Marshal Bernadotte as a suitable candidate
Tor the dignity of Crown Prince.
When the election was held not long
afterward by the national legislature of
Sweden the candidature of the Duke of
Augustenburg was defeated by an over
whelming majority and vote was passed
rendering the heir apparentship to the
crown to Bernadotte. On the arrival,
however, Of the delegates of the Swedish
King and parliament in Paris to notify
Bernadotte of his election, there was
a moment when the entire scheme of Count
Moerner hung fire. Napoleon suddenly be-
came suspicious that he had been used for
an intrigue and that his name had been
employed without his permission to bolster
up the candidature of the field marshal.
For several days he withheld his permis-
sion to Bernadotte to accept the proffered
dignity, and 1t was not until the marshal
impressed him with his loyalty and wound
up with the exclamation, Would you make
me greater than yourself, by making me
decline the offer of a throne?' that Ma
poleon gave way and enabled the soldier
who had risen from the ranks and who
was the son of a Pyrennean peasant to be-
come Crown Prince of Sweden, and event
