President and Mrs. Cleveland Will Enjoy Visits From the Cabinet iu. Soom — Personals, The Misses Shepard, daughters of the late Elliott F, Shepard of New York, were, during the Harrison administration, fre- quent visitors to Mrs. McKee at the White House. A few days ago Miss Alice Vander- bilt Shepard astonished her friends as well as her family circle by her marriage to Mr. Dave Henner Morris of Westchester, N. ¥. Mrs, Shepard refused her consent to the marriage, and, while she accom- panied her daughter into town, was not present at the ceremony, which took place at the Church of the Transfiguration. Only the groom’s relatives were witnesses, with the bride’s servant maid. The objection to the marriage on the part of the bride’s mother did not develop until she found out that the large fortune which Mr. Morris, inherited came from the successful ven- tures of his father, John A. Morris, on the turf. His son, however, has no taste for such pursuits, although he keeps the horses. His habits are studious, and next year he will graduate in medicine from Harvard and will take up surgery as a profession. He dislikes society and so does his young wife, and, having so many other tastes in com- mon, they were mutually attracted from their first meeting. Ex-Secretary Whitney introduced them a year ago aboard ship, Miss Shepard being then*under his guard- janship on the way to Europe with his daughters. Mrs. Morris will enherit a very large fortune from her father’s estate. It is expected that a speedy reconcillation with Mrs. Shepard will follow and that the young couple will start their married iife quite as happily as if their union had been accompanied by all the sumptuous details of the marriage of the bride's cousin, Miss Sloane, at Lenox the other day. Secretary and Mrs. Carlisle have ar- ranged to make a short visit to President and Mrs. Cleveland at Gray Gables next week. Although they do not expect to remain there more than a few days, it is not likely that they will return to Wash- ington for a month. Mr. Carlisle will make a visit also to the Misses Hamlin. Secretary Olney will leave here early next week to join his family at Falmouth, Mass., which is so convenient to the sum- mer home of the President and family at Gray Gables that frequent visits wiil un- doubtedly be exchanged. A cablegram from Rome stating that Miss Elizabeth Jenness Gerry of Balti- more, sister of Mrs. David Stewart, was to be married to Constantine Pangiris Bey, first secretary of legation of the Ottoman empire at Kome, was received by her rela- tives yesterday. The wedding ceremony was to take place in the Greek Church at Leghorn, Italy, and was to be perform- ed by priests of that church, into which Miss Gerry has lately been «baptized. The bride’s wedding gown was of white satin and chiffon. The mother of the bride, Mrs. Gerry, and her brother, Mr. Elbridge Ger- ry, are with her. The groom expects to be transferred to Washington next year. Mr. Sidney N. Culley and Miss Maud M. Muilen were married last evening at the parsonage of Rev. E. Hez Swem, 4th and Virginia avenue southeast. After the ceremony a reception was tendered the groom and bride at the home of Mr. Cul- ley’s father, 631 G street southwest, at which a large number of friends met the newly wedded pair. Lieut. James S. Parker, U. S. A., one of the graduating class of the United States Military Academy at West Point, is visiting his parents, Maj. and Mrs. Par- ker, at the Soldiers’ Home, before entering West Point. Lieut. Parker was a student at the Washington High School. Mrs. Louis D. Wine is spending the sum- mer at Rock Enon, Va. A pleasant birthday party was given Tuesday evening by Mr. and Mrs. John Beck, jr., in honor of their daughter Lillie at their residence, No. 1103 6th street scuthwest. Among those precent were the Misses Lena Hafie, Edna and Irene Sackett, Sadie and Ida Haas, Alice Randolph, Laura Yeatman, Gertie Scarlett, Heten Conover ard Lillie Beck, Masters Wiliie Murphy, Oscar Yeatman, Daniel Scarlett, Cleveland Randolph, Loris Antrim, Aubrey Knowles and Hiiton Beck, Mr. and Mrs. John Beck, sr., Mrs. L. A. Hurst, Mrs. G. E. Randolph, Mr. and Mrs. L. O. Knowles, Mrs. J. Hafle, Mrs. Daniel Scarlett, Misses Ella Tomp- kins, Mamie King and Mr. and Mrs. John Beck, jr. Mrs. Cogswell, since the death of Gen. Cogswell, has been ill at her home in Salem, Mass. During most of the interval she has been unable to see any one of the many oid friends who have called. Her physician says she will, however, soon re- cover her strength ard be able to ride out. She has received a large number of kind and sympathetic letters from her friends in Washington, which it has been impos- sible for her to answer. Mrs. Aurelia H. Mohl of Houston, Tex., is with Mrs. Harry S. Lockwood, 1101 K street, this week. Miss Carrie Misselwitz of Steubenville, Obio, is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. 8. S. Culbertson, 640 I street. Mrs. Dieffenderfer will be at home Sun- day and Wednesday evenings at her new residence at Chevy Chase. ——— An Ad. Writers’ at Home. An‘“at home’ was given last night by the Ad. Writers’ Club in the club rooms, and a large number of the wives and friends of the members enjoyed the hospi- tality of this organization. Under the di- rection of Mr. Isaac Gans, as master of ceremonies, an entertaining program was given, those taking part being as follows: Charles B. Hanford, William Boag, Hans Roberts, Master Willie Coliier, Thomas Wilkinson, Geoffrey Stein and J. J. Fisher. Ther? was also music by an orchestra un- der the direction of M. Hanlein, and a number of selections were rendered by the Madrid Mandolin Club, A letter regretting his inability to be present was received from Robert Downing. ——.__ Resolutions of Regret. Resolutions were adopted by the Interna- tional Cornice Workers’ Association in re- gard to the deaths of Rogerie Davis and Robert E. Phillips, members of the asso- ciation who were killed recently by falling from a scaffold. It, was directed that a copy of the resolutions be sent to the wid. ows and children of the deceased. Ferdi- nand Smith, the owner of the building where the men were employed, contributed $100 to the fund which is being raised for the relief of the families of the deceased men, —— Wants Her Name. The Equity Court has been requested by Francis Tovar, a native of El Eber, Spain, to grant him permission to change his name to Francis Tovar Osgood. Osgood was his wife’s name, he states, and he wishes to keep a promise made to her to preserve her family name. —— Suit Dismissed. The suit for divorce filed by.

The debts are estimated to not exceed $500. —_.>—_—_ Wishes to Be Guardian.

THE CHINESE INDEMNITY Negotiations to Secure the Amount From American Capitalists. CMficials at the Legation Here Say That Americans Stand a Very Good Chance. The Chinese legation here has received information in regard to the negotiations in progress with a view to having China secure from “American capitalists the amount of silver requisite to pay the Chinese war indemnity of 200,000,000 taels to Japan. Should the negotiations be con- summated it will make one of the largest financial transactions of recent years and more than double the amount of the recent Morgan-Belmont transaction with the Unit- ed States. It is understood that the pay- ment will be made in silver bullion, the tael being used only as a measure of the amount. The first payment of 50,000,000 taeis falls due next November and the sec- ond payment of the same amount in May next. The names of the Americans interested in the negotiation cannot be learned. It is understood, however, that the return of Mr, John Foster, who is expected in a few weeks, will develop additional par- ticulars. If American silver was used to meet the indemnity the amount would be equivalent to the silver coinage for two years while the Sherman law was in opera- tion. The present negotiatioris with Russia and France refer merely to the extra in- demnity to be given because of the renun- ciation of the Liao-Tung peninsula by Japan and do not refer to the main loan, which the Americans seek to secure. Americaus Stand a Good Chance. Officials of the Chinese legation say that the American capitalists, who are negotiat- ing in China to secure the loan, are by no means urging a vague or futile suit, and that they stand quite as good a chance of securing the loan as any other money rep- resentatives. Some misapprehension has been created by a cable statement that -China had closed her loan in Paris. It is explained by the officials here that this lcan is a subordinate one of 16,000,000 taels to cover the surrender of the Liao-Tung peninsula. As Russia and France prevailed on Japan to make this surrender, thus yielding the permanent occupancy of Port Arthur, these two countries undertook to guarantee the loan of 16,000,000, which re- imburses Japan for this particular transac- tion. But the main indemnity of 200,000,000 taels carries no guaranty by Russia and France, and it is this main loan which is still open, and to which the attention of American investors is attracted. There is much interesting speculation as to the result of the loan, if it is secured by the American parties. It is said that the first result would be the shipment of an un- precedented amount of silver. But as China’s bonds are payable in gold the ulti- mate result would be to bring back gold for the silver paid to Japan. It is pointed out also that the interest on the entire loan will not exceed $5,000,000 annually, so that the Chinese customs receipts of §23,- 000,000 will readily meet the interest charges and provide a sinking fund for the redemption of the bonds, which will proba- bly run for twenty years. ——_——— +.
