WEDDED TODAY "Teddy" Almost as Great n Object of Interest As His Son's Bride. NEW YORK, June 20. Few wed dings In recent years attracted so much general interest throughout the city as the wedding this afternoon at Flfth Avenue Presbyterian Church, corner Fifth avenue and Fifth-fifth street, by which Miss Eleanor Butler Alexander, only daughter of Mrs. Henry Addison Alexander, of 42 West Forty-seventh street, Manhattan, be came the bride of Theodore Roose- a grand society event in the ordinary sense and there was no lavish display as could be seen at the Gould and Vanderbllt weddings, but it did not have to depend upon gorgeous decora- tions and other frills to attract atten tion. The mere presence of the for- mer President of the United States at , the ceremony was sufllcieut to make the wedding an event of -more than 'ordinary interest and to attiact thou- sands of curious people to the vicinity cf Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church. Ihu church was handsomely, but , ret extravagantly decorated and all 'anp' Intments were rather simple but dignified. The bride, radiant in her beautiful while satin gown with trim- mlugs X old lace, was assisted by hr 111.1: n n v? honor, Mrs. Snowden An- d row Fahnestock, an lutima e friend of Uif bride and herself a bride of only u lew weeks.

Alexander, and cousins of the bride; Miss Jean W. Delano, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 1 Warren Delano,-Jr., and Miss Jessie Milling on-Drake of Paris. Mr. Evelyn Dupont Irving, a great-grand-nephew of Washington Irving and the bridegroom's most intimate friend, acted as his best man, and the ushers, most of whom former class mates of Mr. Roosevelt at Harvard, were Francis Roche, John W. Cutler, Hamilton Fish Jr., E. Morgan Gil bert, Fulton Cutting, Elliott Cutler, Grafton Chapman, George Roosevelt, Munroe Roosevelt and Kerniit Roose velt. Of the three latter the first two are first cousins of the bridegroom, and Kermit his brother, who accom panied ex-President Roosevelt on his Wnting trip to Africa. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Dr. Henry M. Sanders, a great uncle of the bride, assisted by Dr. Gordon Russell of Cranford, X. J.

John William Williamson, the youth who was the victim of the mysterious shooting scrape near Co quille, died at Mercy Hospital yes terday morning at 10 o'clock. Bank A. Williamson, the boy's father, ar rived here late Saturday night from Merlin, Josephine county, Oregon,, and was with his son when death came. The mystery was considerably cleared by a brief statement, the boy made to his father a few minutes before he died. He said that he was wounded by Harry Whitney, but he said it was an "accident. Scarcely had he uttered the words when he asked for a drink of water which his father got. Immediately after taking a swallow, he coughed once or twice and died. This morning Mr. Williamson se cured a private rig and left with the body for home. The father was broken up by tho affair. He said his son had always been a sober, industrious boy and left home about three months ago to come to Coos county to seek work in the logging camps. Tho lad was only about twenty-one years of age. Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Lll jeqvist was ln Marshfield yesterday and Informed Mr. Williamson that nothing could be done about the case. Ho said that young Williamson's statement that It Avas an accident merely confirmed tho claims of tho two who wero with him and who had been held by Sheriff Gage last week at Coquille. j Yesterday morning preparations wore being mnde to extract tho bul let which caused Williamson's death. Tho bullot had evidently lodged near a nerve and tho pressure caused his death. Tho Coquille Sentinel of last Fri day gave, In part, the following ac count of tho affair: "There are several versions of the shooting going the rounds. The par ticipants themselves all agree as to what happened, but one on-looked disagrees with them ln almost every particular. The known facts are that throe young men, named Williamson, Whitney and Stage, while travelling up the track near the old shingle mill site just above this city wero mixed up with a 32-calibro revolver and that thb revolver was discharged, with tho result that Williamson received tho bullet in his neck and Is now in the hospital. "The boys, none of who aro over twenty years of ago, say that Will iamson, who Is generally known as "Crazy Bill," was fooling with tho gun and It was discharged whilo ln his hands. As tho story goes, tho boys had beon drinking, or had de sired to procur0 liquor hero in Co qulllo and that It was rofused them and that Williamson made tho state ment that ho was ready to die If ho could not get booze. In pursuance of this object It is thought by his com panions that he shpt himself. At any rate, they say ho had the gun In his hand and just boforo tho shot was fired was holding It In front of his neck and mado the romark, "I won der how It would go to commit sui cide this way." And then the shot was fired. "Ed. Bonnoll, who lives just abovo town, Is reported as making tho state ment that while working in his gar den ho saw tho boys on tho track and that they appeared to bo wrangling over something and that a moment after ho hoard tho shot and looked toward them again. As ho looked ono of the boys not tho one who was shot throw something from him and orlod, "My God, what havo I done," or somothlng similar, and that an othor of tho boys was holding his hands to his throat. Tho boys al most Immediately started toward town and Uonnell went and picked up the object which was thrown aside No. 289- REi BID Rival Nevada Towns Will Sub mit Propositions to Pro moter Tex Rickard.
