25OO ATTEND
 AT MARRIAGE
 OF PRINCESS
tBy the Associated Press)

London, Feb. 2S.-Princess Mary, only daughter of King George and Queen Mary, was married today to Viscount Lascelles with the pomp and dignity which befits royalty.
 Over 2,500 guests witnessed the ceremony which was solemnzed in historic Westminster Abbey, while throngs stood in the streets over which the royal party passed to and from the edifice
 It is understood that Viscount Lascelles and Princess Mary will pass the first part of their honeymoon at Weston Park, the Shropshire home of Earl and Countess of Bradford, who are distantly related to Lord Las celles.
 Weston Park is a charming resi- dence, set amid beautiful surround ings and is in portion of the coun- try as yet quite unknown to the Princess who is expected to pass about three weeks there. It is one of the most comfortable residences along the whole of the Welsh border. Princess Mary's uncle, the Marquis of Cambridge has his home at Shotton, few miles away.
 There is some talk of a state ball being held at Buckingham Palace in the early summer in honor of their marriage. Thee functions went out of fashion, but they formed great feature of the court season in the days of Queen Victoria, when Alex ander, then Princess now the the Dowager Queen, usually acted as the Queens representative.

However, as part Of the game, be
likely will 20 on denying that he has
any presidential ASPIRATIONS
The McAdOo hackers in the demo
cratic party are more confident than
ever since the elections. They believe
that the defeat Of Senator Pomereue
IN Ohio put McAdoo's strongest po-
tential opponent for the democratic
nomination effectually out Of the run
ming.
They feel, too. that the reelection
Of Rep. Fitzgerald, republican in Jam
Is NJ CoN's home district in Ohio, has
made materially easier the sidetrack-
ing Of Cox. They were more afraid Of
PomcrcEe than Cox, anyway.
Want to Get the Jump
Believing they have the inside track
now, the McAdOO supporters are out
to keep the jump on the other factions
within the democratic party. Plans
are being carefully laid to push the
McAdoo movement into all the state
at once. in the hopes Of lining up the
party organizations in plenty of time
to insure McAdoO control of the IA
tional convention two year hence.
The McAdoo men claim they have no
fear Of Al Smith OF New York who
looms as the Tammany Hall presiden-
tial candidate in 1924. And in this con-
nection, McAdoo leaders say emphatl-
cally that they will not seek TO bargain
with Tammany for support.
His split with Tammany Hall during
the Wilson administration was believed
70 be one OF the chief reasons McAdoo
moved last year from New York TO
new political quarters in California.
Some of the McAdoo leaders, il is
understood, feel that Woodrow Wilson
can be induced 10 throw his support to
his Son-in-law in the next democratic
uational convention IL will not be q
