SECOND WILSON WHITE HOUSE
WEDDING TO BE QUIET
Washington, March 14.-The sec
ond White House wedding in the
Wilson administration will be purely
a family affair. Secretary of the
Treasury William Gibbs McAdoo and
Miss Eleanor Randolph Wilson,
youngest daughter of the president,
whose betrothal was formally an
nounced last night, we're not even
taking their, intimate friends into
their confidence today as to the date,
but society itself agreed upon early
in June
1t was argued that McAdoo would
be so busy with his job as secretary
of the treasury during the next two
months, organizing the federal re-
serve system and putting into effect
the new currency law, that he
wouldn't have time to get married.
McAdoo was in his Office early to-
day, wearing broad smile as he re-
ceived congratulations from his
friends, but was absolutely mum as
to plans. Miss Wilson's friends here
f1ocked to the White House to per-
sonally congratulate her.

POLICE PUZZLED OVER REPORT
OF DIAMOND ROBBERY

Police of the West Chicago avenue
station are puzzled over the sensa-
tional $500 robbery story told by
Daniel Epner, New York diamond
salesman, last night.
Epner rushed into the station
shortly after 8 o'clock last night and
said that he had held up at Milwau-
kee and Grand avenues by two men
who threw red pepper in his eyes and
then robbed him of sample case of
jewelry and a pouch of diamonds.
He said that the man had followed
him from 18th and Halsted streets.
They got off the car when he did and
showed a revolver in his face, after
which they threw the pepper.
The corner Of Milwaukee and
Grand avenues is crowded at 8
o'clock in the evening, but no one has
been found who witnessed the rob-
merry.
Epner was travelling salesman for
his brother, S. Epner, New York.

BUILDING TRADES COUNCIL
KICKS ON PHONE GRAB

The proposed merger of the Chi
cago Telephone Co. and the Auto
matte, which is apparently to be slip
ped over by the City Council commit
tee on gas, oil and electric light, was
opposed in resolutions passed by the
Building Trades Council last night.
In the resolution it says that the
Automatic at present employs union
men, but if sold to the Chicago Tele-
phone Co. without some understand
ing a number of union men will be
thrown out of work.
President Simon O'Donnel will
name a committee to voice the pro-
test.

follows:
Largely a worldwide movement,
arising from laudable desire for bet
ter living conditions.
"A protest against low wages, long
hours and improper working condi-
tons in many working industries.
"A desire on the part of the work.
ers for a voice in the determination
Of conditions under which they labor.

CONGRESS MEETS
IN final SESSION

Washington, Dec. S.-Congress got
back to work again after six weeks
rest to what promises to be billion
dollar session. With crowded calen'
dars confronting both houses. sena.
tors and representatives settled down
to passing the big appropriation bills
and the administration program.
This will be the last session Of the
Sixty-third congress, q congress that
will 60 down in history as one which
worked almost the entire two years
of its existence and as one which put
through number of bills which will
affect the country for generations.
The program that must be carried
out is the passage of the appropria-
ton bills. These must be passed, and
no congress in the past which has
gotten them through successfully has
had so many perplexing complications
that threatened to kill weeks of time
and prevent the passage of the bills.
