INQUIRIES BRING NOTHING
TO CONFIRM POSSIBILITY

Suggestions that the wedding may
take place In advance of the time ten
tatively fiXed--thc last of November or
early in observation-disclosures to excit @
great interest, bat inquiries In all d.
rcctions to-day brought nothing to
confirm this possibility, beyond n few
incidents. One was that the President
o-day went TO leather store on +
Street and bought fine travelling case,
and another was an inquiry rGde OF a
Cabinet officer whether he is to be in
Washington all week.
II is pointed out that the President
and Mrs. Gait arc both of a Temporal
ment to object to the great amount OF
publicity they are getting, but hclplcs IS
to prevent This VIII cease after the
wedding.
On the other hand, It is cited that the
President Is so devoted to his duties
that ne will not permit the wedding
and his personal happiness TO interfere
with any serious work that he may
have in hand. and may wish to dispose
of as much as possible so rs to have
the Christmas holidays for himself and
his bride, that they may take journey
together. 1t is understood to-day that
the President Is determined to take n
bridal trip and that he has bought n
travelling suit to be ready for the trip.
IF the wedding should take place
toward the last of November or early
In December, as intimatcd, the time
would not he propitious for a trip be
cause of the assembling Of Congress.
Many conferences with Democratic
leaders over Legislation will be ncccs-
sary, and these will all take place dur
ing November. Tho President must
also have ready by the first Monday in
December his annual message to Con-
gresB, and IT he follows the custom he
has established he will read IT in per-
son. = trip away from Washington
then is not considered likely.
Therefore. If the President and Mrs.
Gait are going on a bridal Journey the
wedding would most likely take place
within n short time OF or during the
Christmas holidays, when Congress
Will have adjourned.
Until the President begins work upon
his message and starts conferences
with congressional leaders he will not
be so busy. The European ituation
has been practically cleared, Mexico il
seemingly settled for awhile. and the
executive desks look clearer now than
they VIII be at any time after Novcm-
Der /. There are probably several
weeks that could be given TO trip. and
as husband and wife the journey would
be a profoundly Interesting one. De-
ductions. from all the facts in sight.
are favorable to early ewddinG.
It was declared to-day.
DIR. GRAYSON MENTIONED
AS VICTIM OF CUPID
DR.. Cary Grayson, with whose name
the gossips are theoretically busy as a
possible victim OF cupid himself was
thirty seven years old to-day. He had
forgotten his own birthday until Prcsi
dent Wilson reminded him of tho occa :
sion and extended calculations. DIR.
Cirayson merely smiles in n knowing
sort OF way when he il questioned about
his own future. Having been "A ba che
lor SO long. he declares II IS going to
be mighty difficult thing for him "a
make change. He is also fearful. il
Is declared, that he might have din
Guilty In Inducing any one TO Join him
In the happy state the President will
soon enjoy.
