William Ellis Corey, president of the United States Steel Corporation, and Mabelle E- Gil man were married at the Hotel Gotham this morning at 1:24 A. M. In order to escape the unlucky 13th of the month, the wedding was de layed until after midnight. The cere mony took plane in the royal suite at the Gotham Hotel, Fifth avenue and Fifty-fifth street. In the presence of a small party of friends of the con tracting couple. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. I Clark, pastor of the Bushwlok-avenu Congregatl jnal Churcfe of Brooklyn. "Slawe? bffr tha theaters had poured th, . thousands Into the night, a line of cttrious people gathered about the hotel cr.d gazed expoclantly at the bril liant windows, from which flashed (treat bars of ocher light across Fifth avenue, in a vain hope of catching soma fleeting glimpse of the wedding party. The more venturesome braved the imposing uniformed doorman of the hotel and wandered about the office and corridors, but none successfully essayed entrance to the royal suite. Only the few Invited guests passed that carefully guarded portal. Detectives moved about In the crowds that min gled In the hotel corridors, and all who came under suspicion, were passed along the street. Royal Suite Gay With Flowers. The royal suite in the Hotel Gotham is on the third floor of the Fifth avenue side and consists of eight rooms. It Is se cluded.' The salon and the dining-rooms were decorated last night with hundreds of American beauty roses. The manage ment of the hotel and those in charge of the decorations were given carte blanche and the wedding is said to have cost jtooo. The guests assembled In a small recep tion room in the suite, and at 11 o'clock entered the d ilng-room. where the wed ding supper was served. The decorations of the rooms were beautiful and were .tastefully arranged. The hallway was fringed on both sides with potted palms, dressed with sprays of dogwood end snowballs, while the reception room. In which the guests met, was adorned with great vases filled with American beauty Vwes and sprays of cherry blossoms and dogwood. In the dining-room was a great square table. In the center, of which was a bank of pink roses, with sprays of lilies of the valley woven around at the base, the whole edged around with broad bands of pink ribbon. From the co oners of the room were swung festoons of smiiax. intermingled with pink rosea. Wedding Follows Supper. "After the supper was over the party, led by Mr. Corey and his bride, passed down the hall between the rows of palms to the double salon, which was dec orated to represent a small church. Broad white ribbons attached to small white posts formed an aisle down the center of the room, on either side of which were the chairs for those In vited to witness the ceremony. At the head of the aisle was a small white altar,' before which was a prledleu covered with white silk, at which the couple knelt dur ing the ceremony. On each side of the altar rose a white column, the two being Joined by an arch. The columns and arch were heavily draped with smiiax dotted with hundreds of orchids. From the cen ter of the arch hung a large wedding bell of lilies of the valley. There was no music during the even ing and thore were no bridesmaids. Miss Gllman being attended only by Miss Frances Ersklne Shaw of London. Mr. Corey was unattended. Miss Gllman wore an empire gown of white crepe de chine, the skirt of which was trimmed with garlands of em broidered wild roses. The bodies was trimmed with point d 'aiguille lace caught up with trails of embroidered roses. The bridal veil was of handsome tulle four yards square, edged with point d'alguille lace. After tha nuptials Mr. Corey and his bride took; an auto and were whirled i away to Hoboken. where they boarded the steamer Kaiser Wllhelm It, which will sail at 7:30 o'clock this morning. They will occupy the captain's suite, which has been specially fitted up for the trip. Mr. Corey was attended by a valet and Mrs. Corey by a maid. The pair will dine in their own rooms. Mr. and Mrs. Corey wil proceed to Paris and will then go to the Chateau Genls. 25 miles from Paris, where the honey moon will be passed. They expect to remain there until they return to America about the middle of July. Mr. Corey's only gift to his bride was the Chateau Genls. During the evening preceding the ar rival of the guests, Mr. Corey who re mained at the hotel, received hund reds of congratulatory telegrams and letters from friends and business as sociates. Miss Gllman was also In undated with messages of congratu lation. Corey's Relatives There. The guests at the wedding were: Mrs. Jeanette Gllman. mother of the bride; Mr. ( t General Baron KuroWI, Special Repre sentative of Japan at Jamestown Celebration. and Mrs. A. A.

The union of Mr. Corey and Miss Gllman brings together two aggressive personali ties. The new Mrs. Corey is remarkably clever; she is assertive, observant, know ing and courageous. As for Mr. Corey, he Is an icicle in business, a genial fel low In sports and a companionable man In ordinary social matters. Astrologists probably will gfi mad in endeavoring to forecast a pleasant future for the newly-Joined pair. One of the first principles of astrology is Bald to be that strong, assertive personalities should avoid uniting In wedlock. One will is likely to clash against the other. If the astrologists had their way. Mr. Corey would have selected a clinging vine of a girl for his new bride instead of a Gil man, who Is anything but dependent on others for opinions or advice. Mr. Corey is indomitable; his bride is not to be crossed. The lives of both demonstrate the truth of this diagnosis. Mr. Corey is believed to have met Miss Gllman the first time about four years ago, when she was a member of the "Mocking Bird" Company. There were uspr, automobile rides and flowers. Thus the romance began. Faithful Wife of His Poverty. About that time the first disagreement between Mr. and Mrs. Corey took place. Apparently he later admitted he was in fatuated with the actress, and It was then that Mrs. Corey decided to quit her hus band and her home. Mrs. Corey, whose maiden name was Laura Cook, was not worldly-wise, and possessed none of the dash and chio of Miss Gllman. She was a good, sweet-tempered and faithful wife, who had loved "Will" Corey devotedly and had been his partner in toll, hard ship and success. Mrs. Corey had none of the Oilman brilliance, but she always has been a woman of Intelligence, sweet ness, fine character and refinement, a thoughtful wife and a tender mother. Contrast with her her successor. The latter is dark, radiant, amiable and artistic. She is clever In every sense of the word. She brought the country born and bred Iron manufacturer to her feet with almost laughable facility. Was Useful, Not Ornamental. Mrs. Corey the first is a member of one of the oldest families in Western Pennsylvania. Her parents were not wealthy, however, and the children were compelled to labor for a livelihood. She, who was later the wife of the head of the biggest corporation in the world, was em ployed as a domestic by the family of A. A. Corey, father of the man she married. The young man soon afterward was given work as a coalhauler at a salary of $40 a month. The domestic life of the young couple was peaceful until Corey was made president of the big steel company. As the executive head of this concern he had to live In this city, he had to cir culate In society and "put on airs." At least, so he must have thought, for the parting of the ways between himself and his wife began then. His apologists said that "Corey wanted a woman of sparkle and brilliance to boost him along tn New York society." and this always has been Concluded an Fas Four.)

After Consulting Tart's Manage.l Brown Denounces Action Dick I Says Conference Is Useless In Consequence of Animosity. AKRON, O., May 13. United States Senator Charles Dick, wjio Is chairman of the Republican State Central Com mute, tonight issued a statement call ing off the order for a conference at Columbus Wednesday of members of the state executive committee. Republi can members of Congress, County Chairman, state officers and Republican leaders generally. The call for the con ference was Issued last week and gave for its otject the discussion of means of reconciling clashing lnte.-ests of political leaders In the state and main taining harmony In the party. Follow ing Is Mr. Dick's statement calling off Wednesday's conference: "When, as chairman of .the Ohio Re publican State Executive Committee, I invited- a conference of the state cen tral executive committees, of the chair men of the Republican county executive committees, of the elective state offi cers and of the Republican members of Congress, to be held at Columbus, Wed nesday, May 15, I then assumed entire responsibility for the call, as I now assume entire responsibility for an In definite postponement of the meeting. It seems proper, however, that a brief explanation should be made. . JSo Deal to Be Ratified. "The conference was called for no purpose of ratifying any deal, bargain or compromise,' for there was none, but to secure party harmony and unity of purpose among the Republicans . of Ohio, and to allay party strife and dis content. This, It was believed, could be done by a full, frank and consider TAFT "I FEEL ABANDONS HOP ate exchange of opinion at a represen tee gathering, and finally the adop tion of some public expression voicing as nearly as might be the ascertained sentiment of Ohio Republicans. There was no intention of presuming to do more than to recommend united action and effort among Ohio Republi cans and no purpose to attempt to dic tate or even indorse, or still less nomi nate, the party choice of candidates. It was never meant to have the con ference assume the functions of the state convention or encroach upon any rights or privileges of individual Re publicans. Nor was It supposed that there would be any arbitrary action binding the great body of Republicans. and no such action was contemplated, as a .cygfwl.r.eadlnsr of tha call will showy rence could exercise hat of recommen- Hannony. s that harmony Republicans of every element to the com- ubllcan princi success to Re- elections, lo- and should be "iout delay. meeting has ome and mis- d thut it lias and disfavor ity.

Walter Brown, of Toledo, chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, arrived here tonight and has since been In conference with A. t Vorys, state oommlasloner of Insurance, who is manager of the Taft canvass for the Republican nomination for President, in Ohio. Before leaving Toledo, Mr. Brown said he would not re scind his call for the state central com mittee for Wednesday. Telegrams have been sent by Senator Dick, chairman of the Republican state executive committee, to members of the state central committee, however, call ing off tha conference, which was to in clude members of the state central and executive committees and county chair men. Mr. Brown says that Senator Dick did not consult him before taking this action. The position Mr. Brown will take under the circumstances is not yet known.

To many in the courtroom today there was a feature that caused . much comment among them. This was the attitude of W. D. Haywood, the defendant. There was a look on his face that had not been there before, his features being drawn and anger showing in their lineaments. Through "the proceedings of the after noon this was notloeable to persons so seated that they could get a good view of the prisoner's face, and It indicated to their minds that something had occurred thnt had aroused the- man. It is possible the change has been brought about through the revelations made respecting Moyer. Though the story of the latter', career In Chicago and his penitentiary sentence has not been published here. It Is generally known, outside papers having arrived carrying It in full, also much of a con flmatory character. This Is all known to the defense and there have been more numerous conferences between the men and their attorneys, and these have lasted longer than before. Effect of Moyer's Record., It is assumed that thesa revelations and the effect they will have , upon the public opinion are the cause of Hay wood's changed countenance and also of more or less nervousness observed among persons closely identified with tjie defense. This Information came as a great surprise to the public here; It was not known that Moyer bad ever led a criminal life. He has been regarded as the best man of the three, and It Is not too much to say that the general public has felt he was naturally on a higher TO SIT DOWN." MOYER RECORD ANGERS MO plane than the others. But this revels. tlon knocks out all the underpinning of that platform, and leaves him In a bad position. Further, it necessarily pre judices the others, though the old offense can in nowise enter into this case unless Moyer should go on the stand in his own behalf. Moyer's Identity Beyond Doubt. The fact that the offenses were not hasty acts, committed under stress of circumstances, but part of the record of a criminal career, makes it much worse. There is no doubt about Moyer's being the man who served In the Joliet prison. The record is complete, also the identi fication. He was a member of a hard gang In Chicago that committed many Climes and the record has risen up to confront hint now and strike terror into the hearts of those who are defendants with him In this murder case. The state has had tha record for a year. It la detailed and circumstantial. KNOCKS OUT MOYER'S ALIBI Mine Superintendent Fixes Date He Worked In Black Hills. DEADWOOD. 8. D.. May 13. (Special.)

'. 4 a WHEAT BOUNDS ; PAST DUE DOLLAR Tremendous Rush to Buy in Chicago. DEMAND SWAMPS REACTION Gloomy Crop Reports From All Sides the Cause.. PRICE MAY REACH $1.5C Roar of Voices Buys at Opening and Realizing Sales Only Tcaipnr-.- arily Check Advances Price Gains Four Cents Net. CHICAGO. May 13. In the most Ben sational opening: in the history of the Chicago Board of Trade, wheat today shot past the dollar mark. Heavy real ising sales pushed the price backward somewhat, but at the close the mar ket was strong, and, according; to ths majority of speculators on the board. the demand upon which the late ad vance has been made Is still unsatis fied. The net advance today for wheat was 4 cents for July .nd September options and 4 Ho for the December option. From the low point of Monday last, July wheat has advanced 134c; September has gone up 164 c, and De cember option, the higher point of the day, was 16 o above the low prlca of last Monday. It was a certainty that a strong bulge would take place In the wheat market at the opening. Country orders had poured In, seemingly In an endless stream, and In obedience to them brok ers stood ready to buy millions of bush els at the market. Shorts were In a highly nervous condition, and were ea. ger to cover, . ' Roar of- Voices to Buy. The result was that as soon as ths gong sounded there was a terrifla roar of voices, all anxious to buy and nobody offering to sell. The trade was too big and too broad to be followed with any certainty, and brokers filled orders frequently several cents away from the point at which they had hoped to buy. The confusion was 8a great that for a few minutes but lit tle actual business was transacted, ths brokers fighting and struggling in tha effort to get hold of wheat from any , body or at any price. The July option sold, as soon as fig ures could be registered out of the confusion, anywhere between 98 and 94 cents, which was 1!4 to 2c higher than the close of Saturday. September opened at ,96 to 99 cents, which was up lHc to 3c above the close of last week. December showed a wider range T than either of the other options, and the opening quotations ran at all fig ures botween 96 He and $1.03. This price was 1H to 8c above ths final quotations of Saturday. . Rush of Business Stops Reaction. The rush of buying orders seemed to como from almost every city in tha United States which was situated along telegraph wire. .They came from Winnipeg and from Louisiana, and from points on the Pacific and At lantic seaboards. The professional traders were of the opinion that tha opening was a little too vigorous, and the chance to seize profits' on lines of long wheat carried over Sunday tempt ing. As soon, therefore, as trade stead- led a trifle, millions of bushels were thrown on the market on realizing sales, and the advance tor a time was checked. The buying orders, however, still poured In and the market soared up again. Again the long wheat came out and brought about a reaction and again the country buyers forced it up. The situa tion was too strong for any man or any clique of men to stem. The country al large seemed determined to buy wheat at whatever price it could be had. Legitimate Result of Conditions. There were no claims In any direction that the market was being manipulated. The general opinion seemed to be that the advance was based upon natural con. dltions, which are certain to curtail in large degree the world's coming crop of wheat'. The advices from all parts of the West and Northwest confirmed the previous reports of damage by wealhef and by Insects, while telegrams from the Canadian Northwest declared thai there was still no possibility of seeding in the district and that every day of delay meant the loss of thousands of acres that might otherwise have been sown to wheat. Cablegrams reported the market at Liverpool and Budapest to be In a highly excited condition, with prices advancing strongly. Liverpool was declared to be affected by gloomy reports from Russia, and It was the belief of many prominent commission . men that Europe will be forced to buy heavily In the American market, and that the American market. Instead of being able to meet this de mand, will be scarcely strong enough to supply such wheat as Is - needed for her own consumption. Such prominent traders as William H. Bartlett and James A. Patten declared (Concluded on Paca 2- m V
