lng or Son of Most Famous
American and His Bride.
NEW YORK, June 20. Theodore
Rooaevelt. Jr.. and Miss Eleanor Butler
Alexander were married at 4 o'clock this
afternoon in the Fifth-Avenue Presby
terian Church.
Bride and bridegroom knelt on white
satin cushions for their responses. The
bride's voice was inaudible', but young
Roosevelt said. "I do" with an emphasis
that brought many smiles among the
guesta. Long before the hour set for the wed
ding, the neighborhood of the church was
packed with crowds of curious ones. A
spec.Ial detail of 500 policemen held them
In check to prevent their fingering the
texture of the guests' dresses. Over the
shoulders of the officers peeped milliners
and dressmakers, notebooks in hand. .
Cavalryman Escorts Bride..
Miss Alexander was escorted to the
church by the same mounted officer, an
old cavalryman of Spanish War days,
who rode at the elbow of Theodore
Roosevelt last Saturday In the land par
ade from the Battery to Central Park,
and when she came out as Mrs. Theo
dore Roosevelt, Jr.. he saw her safely
to the reception given after the cere
mony at the home of Mrs. B. Alexander,
an aunt of the bride.
Conspicuous among the guests were 42
Rough Riders in full uniform.
Colonel Roosevelt decided this morn
ing that it would never do to leave his
old comrades out in the cold at his eld
est son's wedding. Accordingly, he sent
out a hurried call at the 11th hour to as
many as were still in town or could be
found. The troopers sat in the gallery.
When the Colonel had taken his place,
with his usual dignity, he turned to look
for them and, when they waved at him.
he waved back again with boyish free
dom. More beautiful floral decorations
than those in the church' today are not
remembered at any of the brilliant wed
dings to which a sophisticated city has
grown accustomed. The bride walked
to the altar down a lane walled with
white roses and lilies of the valley.
Each pew was outlined with roses on
a background of feathery ferns.
Roses Cover Furniture.
Pink rambler roses hid the pulpit,
and the organ was' covered with roses.
Roses also framed the windows.
Colonel Roosevelt sat with his wife
and their children, Quentin and Archie.
Behind them sat Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas
Longworth.
Mrs. Longworth wore a white chiffon
gown, trimmed with black and pale
yellow, with a big black and yellow
hat and a profusion of jewelry.
The bride wore a high-necked gown
of soft white satin and tulle, richly
' trimmed with duchess' lace, which had
been worn by her mother and grand
mother at their weddings. . Her train
was three yards long and her veil fell
to her waist.
' Bride's Mother Gives Her Away.
The bride's mother, Mrs. Henry Addi
son Alexander, gave her away. Mrs.
Alexander wore a pale yellow chiffon
gown, with a Louis XV train of blue
and' gold brocade, and a large hat
trimmed with a single large ostrich
plume.
The matron of honor was Mrs. Snow
den A. Fahnestock, who was Miss Eliz
abeth Bertron until a few weeks ago,
when Miss Alexander was maid of
honor at her wedding. She wore a
bodice of dull pink taffeta and carried
forget-me-nots.
The bridesmaids were Miss Ethel
Roosevelt, the bridegroom's sister; the
Misses Harriet and Janetta Alexander,
cousins- of the bride; Miss Jean W.
"Delano and Miss Jessie Millington
Drake.
They wore leghorn hats, trimmed
with pink roses, and white chiffon
gowns with Point d'Esprit fichus,
caught up with blue ribbons. Bouquets
of pink rambler roses were in their
arms.

and the ushers were George Emlen
Roosevelt and Monroe Douglas Robinson,
. cousins of the bridegroom, and Georee
F. B. Roche, Hamilton Fish, Jr., Fulton
Cutting, John Cutter, Grafton Chapman,
Elliot Cutter and E. Morgan Gilbert.
The ceremony was performed by the

pieces, all the selections for which were
chosen by the bride.

STATE TO BE AFFECTED
MACHIXISTS' STRIKE IN LOS AN
GELES MAY SPREAD.
Injunction Prohibits Picketing and
No Connection 'Exists With
Local Situation.
"LOS ANGELES, Cal., ' June 20, (Spe
cial.) George Gunrey. official financial
secretary, appointed by- the American
Federation of Labor, to distribute funds
to the striking metal trades workers,
said today that with Los Angeles as the
storm center of the strike, every city in
this state with the exception of San
Francisco promises to be affected.
The $4 wage scale and eight-hour rule
went Into effect In San Francieco June 1,
and it is the determination of the labor
leaders to make every other city in the
state follow pult.
, The leaders assert that not 'only in Los
Angeles proper, but in the county and
elsewhere the tie-up is acute.
Judge Bordwell, on the application of
counsel for the Baker Iron Works,
granted an injunction, tonight preventing
picketing, intimidation or displays of
force by strikers against nonunion men.
NOT TO AFFECT PORTLAND
Machinists Strike In California Sep
arate From Ijocai Trouble.
The strike of the metal trades workers
in California will not seriously affect the
machinists' strike in Portland, it is be
lieved. Portland shopowners are im
porting all the men they can secure, but
it is proving a difficult matter to replace
the striking machinists . and the local
employers freely admit they are com
pelled to pass up thousands of dollars'
worth of work because of a scarcity of
skilled labor.
The machinists, on the other hand, take
a hopeful view, and say that they have
the strike already won. They are pre
pared to prolong the strike Indefinitely
unless their demands are granted.
"The strike of the machinists is par
ticularly unfortunate at this time," said
W. H. Corbett, president of the Willam
ette Iron & Steel Works, "as we have
thousands of dollars of work that should
be turned out. From appearances, the
financial market is tightening and it looks
as though a period of depression is about
to strike the country. If this should oc
cur, the work we have on hand will be
called off, throwing hundreds of men out
of employment as well as causing the
shop owners to lose a large amount of
money."

Three Rooms Where ex-President
Wades Into Letters.
NEW YORK, June 20. Theodore
Roosevelt began today the life h has
chosen for himself as a private citizen.
He has7 his own Ideas of what 'the
country shall do with its ex-Presidents
and, after a single day of rest at Saga
more Hill, took up his work today as
contributing editor of The Outlook.
Not even his son's marriage detained
him from his- desk. The dispatch boat
Dolphin, on which Mr. Roosevelt left
Oyster Bay late last night, with Sec
retary Meyer as his host, brought him
into New Tork early this morning.
He went direct to his office and im
mediately plunged into the mountain
of correspondence accumulated. Two
hours later he appeared on the street
and was Immediately recognized by the
crowds. Before he had walked half a
block westward, toward Fifth avenue,
he was followed by a throng that
blocked the sidewalk.
Colonel Seeks Hatter.
The sun was beating down with an
intensity that made a top hat unen
durable. The Colonel plunged for a
hatter's at a speed that made the crowd
behlrfd him run to keep up.
As he passed the offices of the pub
lishing house that will bring out his
forthcoming book on his hunting trip
he spied a tall portrait of himself,
framed in red, white and blue.
"That's dandy. Isn't it?" was his
comment. A hatter was close by. It took the
Colonel just two minutes to buy a
wide brimmed straw hat with a black
band. Then he footed it at the same
amazing speed to his office again.
Editor Has Suite.
Editor Roosevelt's business head
quarters hereafter will be on the sev
enth floor of the United Charities
building, at Fourth avenue and Twenty-second
street, where a suite of three
rooms has been specially engaged for
him.
On the entrance door : appears the
legend in big gilt letters, "Office of
Theodore Roosevelt." The rooms them
selves, although businesslike in appear
ance, are furnished with a magnificence
unusual for an office building.
The suite comprises a room for Mr.
Roosevelt's secretary, a room in which
visitors will wait and Mr. Roosevelt's
own room, large and airy, fronting on
Fourth avenue. The walls are newly
covered with bronze burlap.
Furniture of Mahogany.
The furniture is of mahogany and
the desk Is a reproduction of George
Washington's desk at Mount i Vernon.
A rich rug of tan, green and dull pink
covers the polished floor. Pictures of
Washington, Lincoln and a copy of the
Declaration of Independence written in
large old English characters hang on
the bronze burlap.
If It should prove that visitors are
too Insistent there is an auxiliary exit
by which Editor Roosevelt may escape
by a hidden hall to the street.
After his morning's work in his new
offices Mr. Roosevelt went ,to luncheon
to the home of his cousin, Frank J.
Roosevelt. There he took an automo
bile to the church where his. son was
married. - From the church the Roose
velt party rode to the wedding recep
tion at the home of Mrs. B. Alexander,
the bride's aunt.

THE TIME
19 IO ADDITION
of Colored Men From Ft. Lawton.
OREGONIAN ' NEWS BUREAU,
Washington. June 20. Not all the
people of Seattle are clamoring for
the transfer of the colored troops of
the 25th infantry from Fort Lawton,
because of the recent outrage com
mitted by a member of that regiment.
Senator Jones recently"-received the
following letter from a prominent cit
izen, whose name he withholds:
Dear lr: I hereby confirm my telegram
sent to you on the 7th Inst., regarding the
situation at Port Lawton.
I beg to say that there Is no reason what
ever. In my Judgment, for the removal of
the Twenty-fifth Infantry from their post
on account of any act of that regiment.
The perpetrator of the crime has been ar
retted and has confessed his crime, and It
Is simply a. matter of meting out Justice
to this one lnd4vldual. You can imagine
that a crime of that kind la one which
creates .excitement and people are apt to
act wlthou Judgment and are entirely too
hasty.
There Is absolute quiet here and our citi
zens one and all were pleased 'at the splen
did showing which thesa colored men made
here on our streets Memorial day. A pa
rade, which none but the best-drilled ana
perfectly-disciplined troops could have done,
and such this regiment of Infantry is. I
have talked with several of the negro troop
regarding the affair, and they deprecate the
matter, as sensible men should, and their
officers tell me that to a man they are
cast down by the reflections which the pa
pers have unnecessarily cast upon them. I
have lived In Seattle 25 years: I served four
yearn In the Army: five years as County
Treasurer and two years as Mayor. I have
Had. in my time, quite a little to do with
excited conditions and know Mow easy It
Is to do wrong under excitement.
