QUEEN WEDS TODAY
Marriage of Wilhelmina and
Duke Henry at The Hague.
THE PROGRAMME ANNOUNCED
After the Civil Ceremony and Be-
llelons Services In the Forenoon,
the Queen Will Hold Court at
the Palace, Later Departing.
THE HAGUE, Feb. 6. The wedding eve
of Queen Wilhelmina and Duke Henry of
Mecklenburg-Schwerin. shows a "Winter
carnival holding sway over The Hague.
It Is an ideal evening, clear and cold.
Already 100,009 Hollanders, with many for
eigners, have been added to the city's
population, and trains from many parts
of this ancient kingdom are bringing
thousands more. People are marching
about or In carriages, singing or playing
the national anthem. Wherever a band
Is heard, they take up the hymns, "WI1
helmus van Nassau" and "Wlen Neer
Lands Bloed." Everywhere are singing
societies in uniforms and wearing medais,
EOber-looklng Dutchmen, who chant sol
emnly, officials and prominent visitors.
Groups of young men and women cos
tumed in white and orange and In other
bright colors, are parading about, singing
and making fun with the crowds as In
the Mardl Gras. The trlcolored flags. of
Holland and the House of Orange are
everywhere displayed, with an occasional
light blue banner of Mecklenburg. Orange
paper lanterns hanging among the trees
which line the main streets, and looking
like big clusters of oranges, throw light
over the decorations. Every man and
woman wears an orange rosette, with a
picture of the bride. Some, though these
are few, display also a portrait of the
bridegroom.
Queen Wilhelmina dined at the palace
this evening with Duke Henry and the
families of the two. Occasionally, she aiv
peared at an upper window to bow In re
sponse to some serenading party. A strik
ing feature of festivities Is their domestic
atmosphere. There are no cordons of po
licemen or soldiers to hold back the
crowds. There are no swarms of detec
tives. There Is nq thought of anarchists.
The Queen and Duke Henry have spent
a large part of the week thus far In driv
ing about the city In order to give the
people a chance to see them. During the
afternoon today they rode out a few miles
along the snow-covered roads to Fixing, a
village where a fisheries exhibition is be
ing held. They went in one of the state
carriages, which was drawn by four
horses. Her Majesty, who wore a red and
gold cloak and furs, carried a big bou
quet of white flowers tied with orange
ribbons. The Duke was arrayed In the
uniform of a Dutch Admiral. The Queen's
mother and the mother of the Duke, with
the ladles of the court and a few officers,
followed In carriages.
Th Queen's constant escort Is 12 young
noblemen riding bay horses, with white
saddles and cloths, and wearing maroon
uniforms trimmed with black fur. Wher
ever the royal cortege appears the people
good-naturedly clear the way. When the
crowds are thick, policemen and others
clasp hands and form a line to keep them
back. The Queen bows and smiles with
genuine youthful enjoyment. The Duke
Is considered cold, however, and looks
bore d. He raises his hands stiffly In mili
tary salute. Hie friends say that the truth
is that he is exceedingly shy, and being
only 24 years of age, is greatly embar
rassed by his prominence.
The programme for tomorrow is as fol
lows: At 11:16 A. M.. the Minister of
Justice and the witnesses of the marriage
will assemble in the white room of the
pa'are. At 11:30 A. M.t the civil marriage
will occur In the presence of the nearest
relatives. After that, the royal party will
return In person to the palace, where
Queen Wilhelmina will hold court and re
ceive the congratulations of others than
representatives or members of the royal
family. At 1:30 there wJH be a gala lunch
ecn, and at 4:16 P. M. the couple will de
part on their honeymoon.
The Queen's wedding gown, woven of
the finest silver tissue, was embroidered
at the school of art needlework In Am
sterdam, and was afterward made up by
Nycaud, of Paris. It Is ornamented with
silver-threaded seed pearls. The robe and
train are lined with rich white silk. The
bodice, which Is plain and cut low. Is
trimmed with magnificent antique lace.
The trains are covered with embrolderj't
a'most meeting at the waist and broaden
ing over the hem. The court train is 2.
yards long, the embroidery running
ar und In light trails.
The Queen mother always wears on
sttc occasions some shade of purple be
fitting her matronly figure. Tomorrow
she will appear In a gown of vio
let with a long train of deeper shade.
The bodice Is cut low and trimmed with
priceless Brussels lace, of which she has a
large store, and mouseellne de sole.
Th gowns of the Queen's trousseau are
mostly pale greens, grays, blues and
whites, these suiting her blonde complex
Ion best. Her bonnets are of a severe
stjle for a young woman, most of them
be'ng close-fitting toques. Instead of
broad-brimmed hats worn by most girls.
F.t her public entering into Amsterdam,
Her Majesty has a royal robe of white
a civet, with a train trimmed with ermine,
and a mantle lined with ermine. At one
of the receptions in Amsterdam after the
h neymoon, she will wear a gown of white
satin embroidered around the hem and
bcltce with a small tracery of oranges
and leaves, and a court train of rich or
ange velvet lined with white silk. She
has an outdoor gown of delicate gray,
cmblned with white and pale blue,
scarcely showing embroidered steel- and
s:i cr sequins. With this goes a large hat.
She has also a soft hunting costume of
dark green, unornamented, and another
of trimmed cloth applique. There Is a
wa'king dress of dark green, with gold
threads, and another of green mignonette
cloth, combined with white. The Queen
has four plain riding habits.
Amsterdam's gift to the Queen, the
magnificent gilded chariot originally built
for her coronation, was formally pre
sented Monday. In It she will ride to
church tomorrow. One of the greatest
presents Is a great tapestry representing
the garden of the Hesperldes. This Is
from the French republic. From the
ladles of The Hague she has received a
diver mirror, and from her ladies in wait
ing a sliver center-piece for flowers. The
mother of Duke Henry has given her son
a writing table inlaid with pearl, and the
mother of the Queen has given her a
necklace of brilliants and sapphires, with
a brooch of the same. The most note
worthy gift is the carpet on which the
Queen is to be married. It is an Immense
rug, the handiwork of 60 persons par
ticipating In the festivities. The design
shows hundreds of country people In
queer attire and wooden shoes, the women
In ancient lace caps and sleeveless
dresses. The crimson plush border con
sists of orange branches and fruit, on a
pale blue flag. The two upper corners
display the coat-of-arms of the Queen.
All the ladles who contributed to the rug
are woven In It, so to speak.

FOREIGN ENVOYS NAME GUILTY
CHINESE OFFICIALS.
In the Cases of Prince Tnan and
Duke Lan, the Emperor May Com

ly decided at a third meeting held last

cluding those who are dead, on account

Prince Chuang, commander-in-chief of
the Boxers, who had a large share in
the responsibility for promises of rewards
of 50 tads' for the capture of foreigners
and the death of persons protecting them.
Prince Tuan, the principal Instigator
of the troubles into which he dragged
the Chinese Government; who was ap
pointed president of the Tsung 11 Yamun
after giving advice to the Chinese Gov
ernment; who was responsible for the
edicts against the foreigners Issued be
tween June 30 and' August 16t and was
mainly responsible for the massacres in
the provinces, especially Shan SI; who
ordered the troops to attack the legations
In opposition to the advice of high man
darins, who are looking to a cessation
of hostilities; who secured the execution
of members of the Tsung 11 Yamun who
were favorable to foreigners; who Is the
recognized author of the ultimatum of
June 19, directing the Diplomatic Corps
to leave Pekln within 24 hours, and who
ordered, before the expiration of this
delay, firing upon all foreigners found
upon the streets of the capital, and who
was practically the author of the as
sassination of Baron von Ketteler, the
German Minister.
Duke Lan, vice-president of the police
department, who was accessory to the
giving of orders for the capture of for
eigners and was the first to open the
gates of the city to the Boxers.
Ylng NIen, who was criminal accom
plice of Prince Chuang and Duke Lan In
their machinations.
Kang Yi, one of the instigators and
counsellors of the Boxers; who always
protected them and was most hostile to
any understanding looking to the re-es-tabllshment
of peaceful relations with the
foreigners; who was sent at the com
mencement of June to meet the Boxers
and endeavor to deter them from enter
ing the city, but who on the contrary,
encouraged them to follow the work of
destruction and who signed with Prince
Tuan and Ylng Nlen their principal no
tices and prepared the plan for the ex
pulsion and annihilation of foreigners In
the provinces of the Empire.
Chaos Su Klam, a member of the Grand
Council and alBo Minister of Justice, who
was one of the leaders against the for
eigners and mainly responsible for the
execution of the officials killed during the
siege for having tried to stop the attack
against the legations and who tendered
the Boxers every encouragement.
Yu Hsien, who recognized the Boxers
and was also author of the massacres In
the Shan SI Province and assassinated at
his own hand foreigners and missiona
ries, and who was noted for cruelty which
stained with blood the whole country
over which he was Governor.
General Tung Fu Slang, who with
Prince Tuan carried out in Pekln the
plans against foreigners and who com
manded the attacks on the legations and
the soldiers who assassinated the Japa
nese Chancellor.
LI Peng Hang, who used his Influence
to have Boxers recognized as loyal and
patriotic men and who led the govern
ment to use them with the object of ex
termination of foreigners.
Hsu Tung, who has always been one of
the officials most hostile to foreigners,
who praised the Boxers, of whom he was
an accomplice, who used all his Influence
with high persons In the Empire, being
tutor to the heir apparent.
Hsu Cheng Yu, who has the same re
sponsibility. Klh Su, one of the officials most hostile
to foreigners and the minister at the rites
of service of the Boxers.
( The Ministers then announced that
these personages all deserved death. When
this question Is settled the foreign plen
ipotentiaries will have to Indicate who, to
their knowledge, committed crimes in the
provinces, punishment for which will have
to be Inflicted. They will also nresent to
the Chinese, in order to prevent mis
understanding, the text of the edict re
ferred to in article 10 of the collective
note before Its publication.
The Foreign Ministers this morning
gavo out for publication a secret imperial
edict handed to them yesterday by the
Chinese peace plenlpotentarles, which
pleads specially for the life of Tung Fu
Slang, commander-in-chief of the army.
It says the only reason is on account of
the turbulent population of the provin
ces of Shan SI and Kan Su, who are de
voted to him, and might rise and commit
acts of violence against the missionaries
and Christians, which the court would
greatly deplore. Consequently his pun
ishment requires caution, deliberation
and careful consideration. The Emperor,
it Is pointed out, even in the punishment
of Princes of the blood, has not been
moved by motives for their protection.
Why then should he do so in the case of
Tung Fu Slang? What has already been
done should be taken Into consideration.
His army had been reduced to 5000 men
with the object if lessening his power
and with the ultimate object of his future
punishment, which will be promulgated
In an edict, the language of which will
not be too patient. After the depriva
tion of his official rank, the Emperor will
hereafter decide on a heavy punishment.
At their meeting this morning the for
eign envoys proposed a note to be del
ivered to the Chinese plenlpotentarles
containing the substance of the decisions
arrived at last night. Including the sen
tences of execution. This will be trans
lated and delivered to Prince Ching and
LI Hung Chang, who will Immediately
communicate with the court before re
plying. The ministers refuse to spare the life
of Tung Fu Slang on the ground that they
did not consider the claim of the plen
lpotentarles reasonable. They allowed the
lives of Prince Tuan and Duke Lan, not
because they considered their crimes less,
but on account of their relationship to
the Imperial family and the effect their
death might have on the Chinese. The
ministers were surprised that no plea was
put forward for Prince Chuang, but
neither Prince Ching not Ll Hung Chang
made any objection to the full penalty
In his case.
The Indictments against the entire 12
are regarded In Pekln as masterpieces of
diplomacy .o'n the part of the ministers,
for had the ministers merely given a list
of names without specifications of crimes,
this might have left many loopholes for
argument. The only plea can be
political necessity. It Is believed the
court will urge the saving of at least two
more, the reason for this being that
Prince Ching and Li Hung Chang were
taken by surprise as prior to the confer
ence the ministers had only desired the
beheading of half, the others to be ban
ished, and had given the impression that
the Chinese would be alowed to decide
who should be beheaded and who ban
ished. Chevalier Wouters Refused.
BRUSSELS, Feb. 6. The Solr announ
ces that Chevalier Wouters has refused
the post of counsellor offered him by the
Chinese plenipotentiaries.
