Special Cable to The Tribune,
LONDON. June 80.-The usual proceed
ings OF international marriages Is about
TO be reversed, for instead of an
American heiress taking a mortgag ed
estate and title an English girl with
a real dowry is about TO marry a plain
American. The principals are the
Baroness Sonis Bourchard OF TTanon. In
Brittany, and Jack Henderson OF New
York, an actor now playing here in Tho
Pink Lady" The baroness, who is 20
years old and the possessor Of gres
beauty, met Henderson at houseboat

known as plain Mrs" instead OF a
title.
The actor admitted the engagement
today and said the wedding would take
place before he returns to America in
the autumn.

The magnitude of tho calamity which

Views Of Party Leaders,


Party leaders generally took tho posi-
tion, Notwithstanding tho Missourian's
impassioned denial OF Mr. Bryan's inn
putation. that he was behoiden TO Nor
gan. Belmont and Ryan. that he would
be unable to regain the votes he had
lost At the same time many OF them
thought that sympathy FOR Clark and
the inevitsb bic linking OF Bryan and VIII
son in the minds OF delegates, had In
jured the chance of Wilson's nomina-
ton.
Mr.. Bryan tonight issued statement
saying he believed MIR. Clark was right
at heart, but had been misled. The
statement was variouslv interpreted,
some taking 1t as 2 direct invitation to
Mr.. Clark TO repudiate the aid OF the
New York delegation. Several state
ments were Issued from Clark headouar-
ters upholding the speakers position.
The situation as seen by leaders not
associated intimately In the management
OF any of the campaigns seemed tonight
about as follows: Clark having failed

ter receiving a majority vote, probably

Wilson, although climbing steadily, ap
parently was bitterly opposed by dele
gates who resented the geenral impress

delegates believed that the New Jersey
governor would continue TO gain even

Underwood's Turn Next.

Should Clark and Wilson fail on the

dicted there would be q turn to Repre-

damus was refused. The case grew
out of the recent election in Sisters.
Vile and was an attempt to have GER
tain election officials appointed. In
the meantime the election has passed
OF and the grand jury has been
making investigation into the oil
towns affairs.
The petition was filed by certain
citizens and nominees of the Citi-
zens party to compel the city coun-
ell to appoint certain election off,
cials nominated by the executive
committee Of the Citizens party.
The petitioners based their claim on
Chapter of the Code and it is con-
ceded that If the general law is APP
plicable to municipal elections in
that city the petitioners were en-
titled to the writ, otherwise they
we're not.
The respondents denied the appli-
cation of the general law and
claimed that under the city charter
a different law applied. "A section
of the city charter provides that
