New York, Feb S.-While 400 per
sons sew the WEDDING of Miss vivier
Gould and Lord Decies in st. Barthol
onew's church thousands stood fol
hours in the snow covered streets fol
a glimpse of the bridal party. These
guests stood In the pews of the church
and many even sat on the pew backs
during the ceremony, and In this re
spect they robbed the occasion OF its
religious significance. Bishop Dayit
II. Greer of the diocese of New York
read the marriage service. He wa
assisted by the Rev. DR. Leighton H
Parks, rector OF the church.
Outside CT st. Bartholomew there
was a notable absence OF confusion
and of the crowding excitement which
accompanied the wedding of Marjorie
| Gonid to Anthony j. Drexel. Jr., last
April. The police kept the situation
well in hand, and. although there was
some objection made to the arbitrary
closing OF Madison avenue to foot and
heavy vehicle trafHc, the scheme at
least saved the disorder which other
wise would have resulted.
The police officers and men arrived
on the scene three heurn before the
wedding. At that time there were al
ready a thousand or 30 men and wo-
men, mostly the latter. In the street I'm

around the corner into F~orty-fourth
street. The space In front OF the
church was cleared. The lines beyond
which only Those possessing cards to
the church or.credentials from, the po-
lice department could go left prac-
tically a block free In all directions
from the church and prevented JOS
Ting to get close to the bridal party
except when 1t was safely ensconced
in Its carriages.

ding hour when the first OF the maroon
coiored closed automobiles OF the Gould
family arrived. The crowd to the north
and west of the church noted the big
white flowers in the buttonholes OF the
chauffeurs and grooms and crowded a
bit to try to get a peak inside. The
bridesmaids were objects Of interest.

came a car from which stepped Miss
Edith Could, the maid of honor; Diana
Dalziel. one of the flower girls. and
then little Miss Gloria Gould appeared
In the doorway of the machine. A ma
room nveried groom picked little Miss
up In his arms and deposited
her safe and with dress unsoiled on
he steps OF the church.
Mrs. George j. Gould and Kingdom
md Jay Gould all passed the same

The crowd waited quietly enough for
the return to the street Of the party
which the bronze doors had closed.
Some OF the watchers on the outskirts
of the~crowd decided by this time that
there was not much use in hanging
around at that distance and moved
along ON their w affairs. The deser-
lions reduced the pressure on the front
