SENATE PASSES
WAR TAX BILL
Measure Wins by Vote of 45
to 29.
OPPOSED BY SENATOR SMOOT
Tax Is Extended for One Year-Meas-
ure Signed by the President-Un-
derwood Makes Speech in De-
tense of Act.

Washington, Dec. 20.-The admins
trations first revenue bill, extending
the emergency war tax for one year,
was passed by the senate on Friday
by vote of 45 to 29 The measure
was signed by the president.
Mr.. Smoot of Utah, a Republican
member of the senate finance commit
tee, moved to limit the time extension
OF the war tax to June 80, 1916.
This amendment was rejected 25 to so,
by a party vote, except that five Re-
publicans-Mr. Clapp of Minnesota,
Mr.. Curtis of Kansas, Mr.. Harding of
Ohio, Mr.. Jones of Washington and
Mr.. Kenyon of Iowa, refused to seem
to support even that extension and
voted against 1t.
Mr.. Underwoods maiden speech
was a great personal triumph He
has not been assigned to the finance
committee. which has particular jur-
isdiction over all fiscal matters, but
his experience in the house has made
him the recognized Democratic au-
thority on finance.
Mr.. Underwood by three quiet ques-
lions induced Senator Penrose to ad-
NIT that the Republicans did not
want protection to exclude foreign
competition; that foreign imports un-
der the Democratic tariff had not
therefore injured the industries of the
country and that the country with the
Underwood act still in force was now
highly prosperous.

The fact that the germ of the pneu-

how it becomes pneumonia, as a spe-

QUIET CEREMONY PERFORMED
AT HOME OF BRIDE IN THE
NATIONAL CAPITAL.
ONLY RELATIVES PRESENT
Less Than Thirty Guests at Historic
Wedding-WiII Spend Two
Weeks Honeymoon at Hot
Springs, Va.

Washington, Dec. IS. = President
ing Gait were married tonight at S:95
at the home of the latter, No. 1903
Twentieth street, N. w. The ceremony
was performed by DR.. Herbert Scott
Smith, rector of st. Margaret's Episco-
pal church, assisted by the Rev. James
H. Taylor, pastor of the Central Pres
byterian church, which is attended by
the Wilson family.
After day of fuctuating lights
and shades and wedding morning
that broke in wild storm, the sun
shone out and made possible the pre-
diction that happy will be the bride
that the sun shone on"
Less Than Thirty Guests.
The guests who witnessed the cere-
mony numbered less than thirty and
when congratulations were over and
light wedding supper had been served,
the president and his wife motored to
the Union station. There they boarded
a train and departed at 11:15 o'clock
for Hot Springs, Va, where the honey
moon will be spent.
Wedding Trip Brief.
Plans for a more extended wedding
Journey were abandoned almost at the
last hour, because of the possibility OF
a break in diplomatic relations be-
tween the United States and Austria
over the Ancona note.
The presidents itinerary will bring
him and the new first lady CT the land
back to the White House on Jan. 3.
Mrs. Wilson's first public function will
be the Pan-American reception on
Jan. Z.
City Little interested.
A strong Gordon of policemen, scat
tered groups of secret men, knot OF
newspapermen and long thin line OF
spectators gave the only evidence OF
President Wilson's wedding. Outside
of the narrow little red brick Gait
home, where the ceremony was per-
formed, Washington showed little ex-
element over the event. Satiated with
official spectacies and functions, the
blase capital declined to grow enthusi-
astic over a quiet home wedding.
President Wilson Arrives.
Shortly before $3.50 thrill ran
through the crowd as a White House
car going at top speed, rounded the
corner of New Hampshire avenue, fol
lowed by several cars filled with sec
RET service men, headed by w. j.
Flynn, chief of the secret service
corps.
It contained President Wilson, &C
companied only by DR.. Cary I. Gray
son, U. S. N, his personal physician.
The president, wearing his most genial
expression and black coat over his
evening clothes, alighted from the car
when it reached the Gait residence
and hurried inside.

American liner Oscar ii, bearing Henry
Ford and his peace party, now at
kirkwall, will proceed on her voyage,
probably at once. The vessel was de-
tanned to allow the British admiralty
to examine her cargo and had nothing
to do with the character of the human
freight aboard. Part of the cargo will
be taken to a British prize court on
the ground that it is contraband, but
in order not to ruffle Mr.. Ford's doves
the government, instead of sending
the vessel to a port to be unloaded,
is permitting the vessel to proceed
under bond.

Wilson Pale But Smiling.
President Wilson, rather pale, but
smiling slightly, had assembled the
stairs and Mrs. Gait appeared at the
upper landing.
The president with bow, offered
his hand to Mrs Calf and without fan

any music at all, but in utter silence
he led his bride-to-bc down the Ameri-

earlier signatures was entirely omitted

marriage license.
The ring used in the ceremony was
made from a nugget of virgin gold,
presented to the president two months
ago by a delegation of school children
from San Francisco.
Wedding Gifts Costly.
Upstairs in the brides house one
room was set aside for the wedding
gifts, which, despite intimations from
the White house that nothing be sent
by any other than relatives and close
friends, ran into the hundreds. In de-
ference to the presidents wishes, the
houses of congress sent no gifts Off
cially, but many members sent per-
sonal remembrances. The Virginia
delegation, represent ting the native
state of the couple, sent loving cup.
Wytheville, the brides home town,
sent miniature of Mr. and Mrs. Boil
ing, her parents.
In addition to the presidents dia-
mond brooch, there were other gifts
of jewelry, among them a diamond
brooch set with sapphires and gold
and sapphire bracelet. There were so
many fans that it is said that Mrs.
Wilson will have a different one for
each evening during the social season.
Mrs. Wilson's rousseau Elaborate.
Mrs. Wilson's trousseau is said by
close friends to be magnificent in it's
extent and to have cost several thou
sand dollars. Most of it is Am erican
made, and the best shops in the Unit
ed States were called upon to supply
what the brides friends say is one of
the largest and most carefully selected
wardrobes ever gathered by any mis-
tress of the White house.
There are plain gowns and elaborate
gowns, hats, shoes, parasols, umbrel-
las, gloves, wells, and other items in
ample number for each and every oc.
casion. Mrs Wilson always has been
fond of white and black, but in the
selection of her trousseau she has CIV
