Newspaper Page TextTHE MORXING OREGOXIAX, WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1908. :MML GOULD WEDS L First Ceremony in Registry ; Office and Second in Prot ; estant Church. BOTH STRICTLY PRIVATE Only Newspaper Men nd a Few i : Poorly-Dressed Idlers See Knot Tied by French ' Pastor. Bride in Cream Silk. , LONDON, July 7. Madame Anna Gould and Prince Helie" de Sagan were married Bt a registry office In Henrietta street, off Covent Garden, today. A subsequest cer emony -was conducted at the French Pro testant Church on. Soho square. There was absolutely no secrecy about the wedding. Prince Helie last night an nounced to representatives of the Ameri can and French newspapers that all the difficulties having been overcome and ar rangements having been completed, the carriage ceremony would take place im mediately upon the opening of the regis try office in Henrietta street this morning. Notwithstanding this, the Prince and Jlme. Gould made a determined effort to escape the crowds They had a large motor car waiting at the hotel. When the lipur for them to leave arrived, however, the couple, accompanied by three friends. Jeft the hotel by a rear entrance and en tering ordinary cabs, drove to the back entrance of the registry office. ! Civil Ceremony Is Simple. The civil ceremony was simple. Out side of Prince Helie. Mme. Gould, the witnesses and the officials, no one was present. A great-crowd, consisting large Jy of porters from the Covent Garden and employes of a publishing house in the Vicinity, assembled in the street outside. Prince Helie produced a copy of the cer tificate filed with the registrar, establish ing his two weeks' residence In the dis trict and the registrar granted the license. Mme. Gould and the Prince signed the register, , describing themselves as had ;been done in the bans published in Paris. Armed with the registrar's certificate, the party, again leaving the building by the back door, drove in cabs to the French Protestant Church, hidden away )n a corner of Soho square. The party passed into the church al most unnoticed. They were followed by lonly a" half dozen reporters and a few poorly dressed parishoners. They -were escorted to the vestry and the pastor, the Rev. Mr. Fremont, carefully read the document brought from the registry of fice. Having satisfied himself of its cor rectness, he escorted the couple to the altar, while Mme. Ranette, a daughter of the associate pastor of the church, played the hymn "Abide With Me," on the organ. The ceremony was quite in keeping with the simple character of the church, but It was rather long. At the conclusion of the ceremony the pastor, as Is the custom of the church, firesented Prince Helie with a Bible and t hen congratulated them. ; Bride in Cream Silk. Mme. Gould wore a handsome costume of cream colored silk richly embroidered and a straw hat. to match, -trimmed with ostrich feathers. The news that the Trlnce and Mme. Gould had been married In the Soho Square Church got about quickly and by the time the party were ieady to leave the building a big crowd had gathered In the street in front. After u few Introductions to members of the pastor's family. Prince Helie de Sagan fend his wife, followed by the witnesses and the Prince's secretary, made their way to the carriages. The crowd outside promptly stood aside to let them pass through. j . fcu arriving hi ine notel. the Prince end his wue sat down to a wedding breakfast with a few friends. CONVENTION IS OPENED (Continued from Pjse 1.) fore Chairman Taggart at noon today, when with uplifted gavel he sought to bring order out of the confused babel of sound and motion. The splendid amphi theater, bedecked with flags and bunting, was packed to Its uttermost limits with a flense and seething mass of humanity. Below, in the central arena, sat the dele gates, Just two more than an even thous and, and back of them the 1000 alter natesthese 2000, the real convention, with the destinies of the party in their hands. Flanking them and sweeping around the hall were the long lines of eager, expectant onlookers, rising tier on tier and gallery on gallery In aolid masses, the brightness of the ' women in their gay costumes vieing with the splen dors of Old Glory, which hung at every hand. Leaders W ho Stood Forth. Here and . there, amid bewildering thron.gs. stood out the notable group nf leaders. Immediately in front and under the presiding officer's eye was ranged the Nebraska delegation, bronzed sons of ' the West, headed by the "Cowboy Mayor" Dahlman, the perioral spokesman of Mr. Bryan. Well In front were the New York co horts, with Chief Murphy, cold and impenetrable, and Judge Parker, rather serious-faced. Further back Colonel Guffey was the smiling center of his Pennsylvania adherents, and near him, James Kerr. wiio is struggling to dis place Colonel Guffey and take up the leadership. Illinois was to the left eenter, with the rotund Roger Sulli van to the fore. Further back Tom Johnson, the fighting Mayor of Cleve land, moved among his adherents until the gavel sent him ta his place among the distinguished guests upon the plat form. Near him there sat a notable group the venerable Senator Daniel, of Virginia, a type of the old-time Southerner, with C. A. Towne, the Vice-Presidential candidate and ora tor, and the tall, hlonde Congressman Sulier. ot New York. With the Vir ginians could be seen Governor Swan son; with Nevada. Governor Dlckerson nnd Senator Newlands; with Kentucky, Senator MeCreary; with Missouri. Sen ator Stone and occasionally ex-Governor Dockery and the redoubtable Champ Clark; with Idaho, ex-Senators Dubois and Heitfeld. Minnesota with the Jounson lieutenants, was poorly placed in the rear, while Dela ware, with the Gray forces, was bet ter off in the right foreground. Off to the loft, the President's daughter. Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Long worth, in fetching gown and Lady Gay Spanker hat with flowing plumes, smiled from one of the boxes, and from another box looked out the daughter of the ' Nebraska leader, Mrs. Ruth Bryan Leavitt, beaming as she awaited the naming of her father for the Presi dency. On the platform, too. were many representatives of foreign coun tries, young Viscount de Chambrun. of ONDON France; M. Kroup'ensky. of ' Russia; Hon. H. F. Charteris, of England, and the Ministers of Argentina, Greece, Belgium and Chile.- Cheer When Bell Makes Point. The initial outburst of enthusiasm came 4,. . V. ., nnAnfnv wl-,An Biineii Daaner ueariiiK me puiuaiL ui Mr. Bryan was displayed. Immediately there was a storm of wild applause. which died away after half a minute of explosive demonstration. The appearance of the temporary presiding officer, . Mr. Bell, of California, was another signal for enthusiastic outbursts. He came for ward amid the storm of tribute, tall and sturdy,, but rather immaculate for one of the linterrifled. with silk-fronted Prince Albert coat, resplendent with convention medals and watch charms, giving the ap pearance of a decorated diplomatist. In strong, far-carrying voice, and with easy gesture, he delivered the opening address, a full hour long, with resounding pas sages, on the righting of public wrongs, punctuated with yells, as some phrase tickled the fancy of the throng. It was noticeable that great applause came from the delegates at Mr. Bell's Impassioned declaration that the writ of Injunction shall not be turned into an instrument of oppression. Again there was uproarious applause as he arraigned the Republican campaign contributions without a "cash register." After refer ring to Mr. Taft as a "bisected candi date," and demanding "but one man in the White House at a time." he adroitly turned his speech into a panegyric for Mr. Bryan, the reference to the Nebraska leader bringing forth a tumultuous dem onstration. Guffey Thrown in Tureen. The appointment of committees was quickly disposed of. For a moment the Pennsylvania row threatened to throw the convention into wild confusion. That state presented two sets of officers, rep resenting the contending factions. Ollie James, of Kentucky, voicing the Bryan sentiment, endeavored to refer the fight to the credentials committee. Against this Colonel Guffey and his lieutenants, pale and gesticulating wildly, sought to In terpose a protest. But this was of.no avail. For a time pandemonium pre vailed. And then the smooth-running machinery consigned theiquestlon to the credentials committee, where Mr. Bry an's adherents are supreme, and the Guffey forces retired, full of wrath and disgust. Parker Takes Back Seat. ' The presentation of resolutions of re spect to the memory of Cleveland brought forth two notable figures. Judge Parker, of New York, the Democratic candidate of four vears aeo. nnd Clnv&mevr Won-l of Missouri, one of the surviving mem- Ders or tne Cleveland Cabinet. The reso lutions adopted emanated from Mr. Bry an's friends and were presented by I. N. Dunn, of Nebraska, who will make th nominating speech for Mr. Bryan. They were no sooner read than shouts of "Parker. Parker." showed the generous temper of the convention toward the ex leader. Judge Parker was nrevAllAd linnn to mount the platform, where, with reso nant voice, ne read his own resolutions of tribute to Mr. Cleveland, closing with a tactful concession to the Bryan forces by seconding the resolutions presented by them. Mr. Francis' tribute to his former chief breathed the spirit of per sonal association anil -ippn -.1ml..Hnn With the adoption of the resolutions the convention adjourned until noon tomor row. - AVTIS FIGHT CHANGE OF RILE Scent Scheme of Bryan and Force ; Its Withdrawal. DENVER, Colo., July 7. The commit tee on rules and order of business adopt ed without change the rules of the con vention at St. Louis. The session for a time Was made lively by the presentation by John T: Hicks, of Arkansas, of the following resolution; "Resolved, that In all cases where the action of the National Convention is In confllot with the action of the state con vention, the action of the state conven tion shall be construed to. control." State Senator Grady, of New York, who was in the chair, temporarily yielded the gavel in order to denounce the resolu tion as wholly undemocratic. Its mere publication as having been offered, "he asserted, would be a taint on the Demo cratic party. He was followed by L. Irving Handv. of Delaware, who also hotly opposed the resolution, tne first effect of which, if adopted, he said, would be to require the National Convention to enforce in structions as to candidates. The second result, he maintained, would be that where delegates were instructed or sent without Instructions by district conven tions, and subsequently a state conven tion sent delegations at large instructed for a particular candidate, those Instruc tions would be applied also to all the district delegates. The National Con vention, he said, enforced the unit rule, but left the matter of Instructions as to the candidates to the conscience and honor of delegates so Instructed. Mr. Hicks withdrew his resolution and a prolonged and bitter fight was thus averted. Sew Jersey for Gray. DENVER, July 7. The New Jersey dele gates today, after a heated argument in their caucus, decided to vote for George Gray, of Delaware, for President. It was also decided to .vote under the unit rule. The latter decision was not reached until after a long debate, which at times waa somewhat heated. Connecticut W1H Aid Johnson. DENVER, July 7. At a conference held early today the Connecticut delegation voted, 11 to 3, to give place to Minnesota on the call of states for Presidential nom inations. Under this arrangement Gover nor Johnson's name will be presented early In the rollcall. Builds a Revolving House. NEW YORK, July 7. William Relman, a jeweler, has had plans drawn for a re volving house to cost $35,000, which he will build at Bayslde. L. I. Mr. Relman holds that with the advan tages of modern appliances, such as elec tricity, there seems little reason for the sunny side of a house being in the sun all Summer and the shady side being in the shade ail Winter. As proposed, the house will be con structed on a turntable, which will be operated by electricity. Open Consulate at Omsk. ST. PETERSBURG. July 7. Russia has granted the United States permission to open a Consular agency at Omsk, and the American Embassy here has applied for an exequateur for Adolph Reinecke. The" Omsk post is an important one. as it will be the only post between Moscow and Vladivostok where the United States will be represented. Preacher's Prayer. Js Answered. CHICAGO. July 7. Twelve hours after Rev. George Lewis in a public prayer asked that the amusement resorts of Irv ing Park, where liquor is served, might be "burned to the ground." Excelsior Park was consumed by fire yesterday. The prayer was offered during a revival meeting. The fire was incendiary. Tomorrow and Friday will positively be the last days for discount on West Side gas bills. Portland Gas Co.

NO HARDSHIP TO SHIPPERS Custom Is Long Established and Grew Up With Industry Impos sible to Fix uniform Allowance for the Stakes Equitably. WASHINGTON, July 7. "We find and decide, upon all facts and circumstances disclosed by investigation, that- regula tions of railroads which require shippers of lumber on open cars to stake and se cure the loads for safe carriage are not unjust or unreasonable." This is the opinion of the Interstate Commerce Commission in the car stake cases, as rendered by Chairman Knapp today. The opinion of the Commission covers 10 printed papes and fully reviews the cases. The Commission shows that since the beginning of the development of the lumber industry shippers have not only loaded, but staked and secured the lumber shipped on flat cars and gondolas. Staking has been in reality a part of the operation of loading. Other commodities similarly shipped, such as steel pipe, ma chinery, etc., have always been staked by the shippers. The Commission says that lumber Is more easily staked than other commodities and at less expense. Uni form stakes cannot be used because the different character of lumber and tim ber require different methods of staking. The following points are . taken from the opinion; Xo Hardship to Shipper. ' "Rates . charged by railroads -for ship ments of the same kind of lumber in box and open cars are the same," says the commission. "But it seems more expen sive by perhaps as much as the average cost of stakes to load and unload box cars. The empty car movement of open cars to points of production of lumber is much greater than that of boxcars. In many cases it is optional with the ship per whether he uses open or boxcars and frequently he uses the open car from preference or at the request of the con signee. The fact that the rates are the same on open and boxcar ehipments of lumber works no hardship to' any shipper so far as record discloses. "Aside from these proceedings it has not been claimed in the numerous lumber cases brought before the commission that any difference should oe made in the rates as between boxcar and open car shipments because the latter must be staked by the shipper. If the carriers were required to" furnish stakes for lum ber shipments or to pay an allowance equal to their cost, it might furnish an excuse for an advance In lumber rates to correspond to the additional expense. Can't Fix Uniform Rate. "Lumber has been bought and sold for more than 50 years under the conditions that now exist. There is little warrant . .. .....I. w prac ticable to grant an allowance to lumber snippers oasea upon tne cost of the stakes furnished. In view of the great variety Of shipments, the cost of staking varying with 'each, no allowance eould be made which would be just to all and which would not lead to endless discriminations and consentient IniiiRtine th& stakes ranging from 26 cents to $7 per car. allowanfw to nne 1 .;..-... ... i j - ...i., nuuiu excessive to another and Insufficient for a inira. "There does not appear to. be any thing unreasonable or unjust to the shipper resulting from a custom long prevailing. It grew up with the de velopment of railroad transportation, antedating by many years the passage of the act to regulate commerce. In administering that statute, it is mani festly unwise to interfere with estab lished usages unless they, plainly of fend its provisions and in a substan tial manner abridge rights it was de signed to protect." Opinion of Dissentients. Commissioners Clark and Harlan dis sented. They express the view that "if a shipper has lumber to move and can use either a closed or an open car and he does not request an open car and the carrier for its own convenience furnishes an open car, it is simple Justice that it should be equipped by the carrier, but ii the shipper is obliged to have or prefers an open car, then he should supply the stakes." HITCHCOCK TO BE NAMED SLATED FOR CHAIRMAX OF THE XATIOXAL COMMITTEE. Republican Leaders Hold Session at Hot Springs, Va., Todays Mc Klnley to Be Treasurer. HOT SPRINGS, Va., July 7. The ex ecutive committee of the Republican National Committee will meet here to morrow and from present indications there will be .only a brief session, at which Frank H. Hitchcock will be elected chairman, and Representative McKinley, of Illinois, will be made treasurer of the National Committee. Senator Hemenway and Representative Watson, of Indiana, who were repre senting the Fairbanks section; Repre sentative McKinley, of Illinois, who had charge of the Cannon campaign and Representative Burke, of Pennsylvania, who represented the Knox candidacy, say that they have no objections to Hitchcock. In the case of Mr. McKinley, there is but one sentiment and that is in his favor, for the office of treasurer. Mr. McKinley has long been considered for the treasurership, but as he is treasurer of the Illinois committee, it was for some time the opposition to having him leave that work would operate against his selection. But that objection has been overcome by the proposition that he should be treasurer of both com mittees. Mr. Taft spent several hours on the golf links today. TAFT BAXXER IX JLIXCOLX Republicans Wage Campaign in Bryan's Home City. LINCOLN. Neb., " July 7. The Repubi lican State Central Committee early to day carried out its intention of showing active resistance to the Bryan campaign by stringing a Taft banner across the street at the intersection of Twelfth and O streets, probably the most prominent corner in the city, despite a storm of protests from the interests which have thus far advocated local nonpartisanship.

Mr. Francis made a short but effective address. His appeal to the convention to bury in Cleveland's grave all the dissensions that have heretofore divided the party, was most vigorously applauded. Bell held in his hand a list which he consulted during all these proceedings. He then called on Colonel Haldeman, of Kentucky, who made a few remarks, indorsing all that Mr. Francis had said. But the convention did not approve of the treatment of Judge Parker and thereupon began to call for "Parker." The delegates would not stop and the call became tremendous. The chairman could not ignore It. The convention was bound that Judge Parker should be heard, and the voice of the tempo rary chairman was drowned by the call of the convention, but he motioned to Judge Parker to come to the rostrum. This was done and Judge Parker with dignity simply read the resolutions he had intended to introduce and seconded Mr. Dunn's resolutions, and they were carried unanimously by a . standing vote.

If Mr. Bryan ,was the hero of the Parker con vention of 1904, Judge Parker is today the hero of the Bryan convention of 190$. This blunder was a petty political move and It properly reacted on its origina tors. This Incident shows that while Bryan will be nominated, he does not dominate this convention as President Roosevelt did the Republican convention.
