KIN OF PRESIDENTS
i. WILL ATTEND FETE
Many Relatives of Former Executives to Be Guests of
Tafts at White House Celebration Tonight-Mrs.
Grover Cleveland Is Expected.

Since the invitations were sent out a
few weeks ago for the silver wedding
celebration Of the President and Mrs.
Taft at the White House tonight, the
event has been If paramount interest in
diplomatic, official, ana resident society.
Many Of those who had already left the
city for the season to spend the sum-
mer at various resorts have returned to
the National Capital for the occasion,
and the gathering at the Executive
Mansion this evening VIII be the mos,
brilliant and distinguished assembled
in Washington in June for many q
year.
The Vice President and Mrs. Sherman
will be present, as will the entire per-
sonnel OF the Cabinet, accompanied by
their families, with the possible excep-
tions Of Mrs. Meyer and Mrs. Fisher,
wives Of the Secretaries Of the Navy
and Interior, respectively.
Diplomats to Attend.
OF the somewhat depleted ranks of the
Diplomatic Corps, practically the entire
contingent still in town, including the
French Ambassador and Nine. Jusser-
and, the British ambassador, James
Bryce; the japanese Ambassador and
Baroness Uchida, the minister Of Bo-
livia and his daughter, Miss Calderon;
Countess de Buisseret, wife Of the re-
firing Belgian minister; the Spanish
Minister and Nine. de Riano, the Nor
weg1an Minister and Nine. Bryn, and
the members Of the embassy and lega-
tion STATS will attend.
Mrs. Taft will not wear her wedding
gown, but q handsome costume of white
brocade and silver, with a court train.
Two interesting members of the White
House party, who will be much in evil
dence tonight are Miss Heron. Mrs.

the only attendants at the marriage

United States Trust Company shared
advanced to 125 a share and this price
was bid with 1T asked, a practical gain
Of over SO a share since the Street
became informed Of the selection of ex-
Senator Nathan B. Scott, as president
The latter will, according to program.
be elected at a special meeting Of the
board Of directors this afternoon for
the unexpired term ending with the an
possible that there will be one other
change In the official personnel Of the
institution. The sharp rise In values
would seem to indicate that some one
or some interest Is anxious to accumu-
late stock, large part Of which Is, ap-
parently, held by other than the domi-
mating interests That Senator Scott
will bring large following to the
bank goes without saying He will also
have an opportunity to exercise his
talents in handling the company.
The stock market was uninteresting.
Sales were comparatively light: there
was no activity In anything. and prices
were steady.
Small sales Of Gas were made at ss1s
with considerable stock offering at bet
ter than current prices and a limited de-
mand. 1t is said that the company pro-
poses to revive the commercial depart
ment project in the near future, through
dealers this time and with an exposi-
ton of gas stoves, heaters, etc, etc,
covering the range of appliances, and
with the Gas Company ready to make
the payments for the appliances and &C
ject and the amendment to the Consti-
tuition will unquestionably be adopted.

profit continued, with no one taking
much chance either way, and the shorts
just about as well satisfied with their
position as they were before the bond
bids were opened. AS a matter Of fact
there was no real doubt about the issue
being successful, when the rate and the
plentitude Of money is considered The
public Is not in the stock market to
any appreciable extent; the bond de-
mand has lessened, and the attractive
ness Of the Panama bonds appealed to
investors with unemployed money, just
as much as 1t did to the great financial
interests. The fact that some of the
banks Of this city that are supposed to
be in the inner circles of the Treasury
Department. did not get within sight OF
an allotment has caused much comment,
and there are rumors of one bank short
OF the bonds through sales when issued
on the curb.
After all Is Jsaid and done the market
Is moving. still moving in its restricted
area, one day showing strength, and
losing. It the next, the net changes for
a period Of several days being unim-
portant. With assurances of large crops
and an adjournment Of the "inquisitorfal
Congress" there may be return to life
and activity.
