Norris and Gardner Talk About Election Results. THE FORMER BELIEVES IN GORMAN The Latter Says It Was a Revolt Against Men and Methods. DIVIDED DEMOCRACY Democratic politicians have hardly re- covered from their surprise sufficiently to make explanations of the remarkable events of yesterday. The general verdict is that it was not so surprising that a re- publican victory was scored as it was that this victory was so sweeping and so nearly uriversal. Mr. James L. Norris was seen by a Star reporter in his office today and he made no effort to hide his chagrin and deep disappointment over the manner in which Maryland had turned ae back to Senator Gorman. What Mr. Norris Says. “The result of yesterday,” said Mr. Nor- ris, ‘‘may be laid at the doors of the Bal- timore Sun. The Sun has accomplished what it started in to do, and we have its positive promise that Maryland will next year be back in the democratic ranks. It is now in the republican ranks, and it will be interesting to watch the course of events to see whether the Sun can fulfill its promises. “This was not really Mr. Gorman’s fight, and he would not have entered it had it not have been for the bitter personal at- tacks made on him during the campaign. I am exceedingly sorry over his defeat, and regard him as one of our country’s greatest statesmen. But many things may happen within the next two months, and it is two years before the re-election .of a successor to Mr. Gorman will take place. “I regret very much that President Cleve- land did not see fit to write a letter ex- pressing his wish to have the state ticket in Maryland elected. I should like to have seen a letter from him similar to that he wrote Mr. Tracey commending the New York state ticket. But Mr. Cleveland’s let- ter to Mr. Tracey does not seem to have had any effect, or at least not the effect that it was hoped it would have. Letters Commending Gorman. “There is one other thing I regret and that is that I was not able to publish the letters from United States Senators re- ceived by me ard recommending that dem- ocrats of Maryland should vote for the regular ticket. I did publish three of these letters, from Senators Mills, Palmer and Voorhees, in the Baltimore Sun, but it was 4 very expensive thing to do, and to have gotten them in print in the Baltimore pa- pers would have cost thousands of dollars, and we did not have the money to spare. But the Sun devoted a column and a half to show that these letters were from men who did not understand the local situation in the state. Yet the Sun did not hesitate to have Schurz and Roosevelt brought into the state in order to advance their purpose. I received about fifteen letters from United States Senators, commending the state ticket of Maryland to democrats, and speaking in the highest téyms of Senator Gorman, his statesmanship and the great work that he has done for his party, es- pecially in the Senate. These letters are a splendid tribute to any man and they show the high esteem in which Mr. Gorman is held by other Senators. I am afraid that the writers of some of them will feel that I was lax in my performance of duty in not having them all published, but, as I said, the newspapers would not handle them except as paid matter and that in- volved an expense too great to be borne. But they will be printed. I will see to that. I propose to print them in book form for distribution. Mr. Gorman may well feel proud of them.” Mr. Lawrence Gardner's Views. Mr. Lawrence Gardner, secretary of the democratic congressional committee, was also seen at the headquarters of the com- mittee, 1410 G street. “Do you regard the result of yesterday as a declaration by American voters against the principles of democracy or against men?” the reporter asked. “Men and methods,” replied Mr. Gardner. “The American people are tired of being dictated to by bosses, whether those bosses are republicans or democrats. The voters of the country are against corrupt methods in_politics. They are thinking for them- selves and voting as they see fit. That is all thore is about the elections of yesterd: “A great change has taken place in poli tics during ‘the last few years. People do not want to be led now blindly and at the dictation of some political boss. They re- sent even the suggestion of that sort of thing. It does not follow that the head of a@ party in a state either connives at cis- reputable methods or is a boss. Corruption may exist or subordinates muy be exercis- ing themselves as bosses, and while the man at the head of the party may be in- nocent of these practices, ne, of course, has to suffer from the indignation shown at the ‘ampaign literature does not accom- plish as great results as it did a few years ago in the same way these results were then reached. It does not do to tell people that a party, if elected to office, sill send a ceuntry to the bow-wows. People are thinking, and what they want is to have arguments that will appeal to them as sound. Literature of any other character is absolutely without effect. “Then people do not want long campaigns. They want a short business campaign and only a small quantity of exceedingly well- selected literature will do any good | in influ- ercing votes. This condition which now exists has been brought about by the ten- dency of voters toward independence and a tendency to think of public questions for themselves. I do not think that our defeat means that we have no hope for "96. It was not against the principles of democracy that the people voted yesterday.” Out of Politics. Ex-Representative Coombs of Brooklyn, N. Y., reached Washington this morning, after having cast his ballot for the demo- cratic ticket at his home. “The only explanation I can give for the way the elections resulted yesterday,” said Mr. Coombs, as he smilled in the face of de- feat, “Is that I am out of politics. No, I am not now prepared to make any explana- tion of the results. But we must get to- gether in New York state. The way the democracy is divided there is astonishing.” ee THE LOCKED-OUT DRIVERS. A Mass Mecting to Be Held in Their Interest Next Friday Night. That the locked-out drivers of the Ana- costla road are not withcut friends has been demonstrated a number of times lately, but if proof were needed it would be fourd Friday evening, when a mam- moth mass meeting in their interests is to be held in Masonic Temple, Anacostia. All the labor orgarizations in the District and friends of organized labor have been in- vited to be present, and thus express their sympathy with the ‘ocked-out men. The meeting is attracting more than local attention, and a number of prominent la- bor leaders from out of town have signi- fied the!r intention of being present. Among those who have accepted an invit tion to address the meeting are the follow- ing: Michael J. Bishop, Scituate, Mass., general worthy foreman, K. of L.; Thos. B. McGuire, Amsterdam, N. Y., one of the general executive board, K. of L.; Rev. Dr. Alex. Kent of the People’s Church; Presi- dent Tracy of the Columbia Typographical Union, Vice President Farrell of the same union, Masier Workman Simmons, District Assembly, 66; President Hyde of the Book- binders’ Association, Andrew J. Best, ex- ecutive committee, District Assembly, 7! Brooklyn, N. Y., who conducted the great street railroad strike in that city, and Sam. De Nedrey, one of the leading labor orators of the country. SPECIAL NOTICES. SPECIAL NOTICE—DENTISTRY DONE ON WEEK- ly and monthly installments—10 per ceut discount cash, Dr. T. W. STUSBiLEFIELD, jer- tf sith and’ B sts. new-Mertz Bl (Contirued from First Page.) appeared, leaning upon her father, who measured his step to hers. At the chancel rail the bridal procession was met by the groom, who stepped forward to meet his bride, and by the following dis- tinguished prelates and clergy, who were grouped around the communion table: The Right Reverend Bishops Littlejohn and Pot- ter, the Reverends Dr. J. Wesley Brown, rector of St. Thomas’, Dr. J. H. Rylance, rector of St. Mark’s; the rector of Islip, L. 1., Dr. Bridges, and the Rev. Waldo Burnett of Southborough, Mass., who was chaplain for many years-to the seventh Duke of Marlborough at Blenheim. When the bride reached the chancel rail the choir, accempanied by organ and harp, sang hymn 238, “O Perfect Love, All Per- fect Love Abounding,” set to music by Barnaby. At its conclusion Dr. Brown, the rector, came forward and intoned in a sonorous tenor voice the introductory and charge. Giving the Bride Away. When Bishop Littlejohn asked “Who giv- eth this woman to be married to this man?” Miss Duer, the maid of honor, step- Ped forward and tock the bride's bouquet, while her father, W. K. Vanderbilt, step- ped forward azd gently raised his daugh- ter’s right hand and placed it in the hand of the bishop, who caused the @uke to clasp it with his right, both the bride and groom repeating the trotif together, as man to woman, and again as woman to man. The duke then handed a plain circlet of gold to the bishop, who, handing it back, requested that it be placed on the fourth finger of the bride. The couple then knelt on the pre dieus laid at the chancel and repeated together audibly the Lord’s Prayer and an exhorta- tion for peace. The chcir then sang the anthem from the English service, “God Be Merciful Unto Us and Bless Us," set to music for harp and orchestra accompaniment by the late Dr. Bayley. precentor of St. Paul's. The benediction was ihen pronounced, and the bride, leaning on the arm of the groom, and followed by her father, mother, two brothers, Sir Julian Pauncefote and brides- maids, entered the vestry, where the mar- riage register was signed and witnessed by Mrs. Vanderbilt, W. K. Vanderbilt, Sit Julian Pauncefote, Dr. Brown and Bishops Potter and Littlejohn. The bridal procession then reformed, and, leaving the vestry, the newly created duchess, leaning on the duke’s arm, walk- ed down the central aisle to the stirring chords of Mendelssohn's “Wedding March."” The surging crowds outside were kept back by 20) policemen, and immediately the ducal couple had entered their carriage they were driven rapidly to the Vanderbilt home, 24 East 72d street, where Mrs. Van- derbilt, who kad left the church by a side door immediately after the signing of the register, awaited the happy couple. The duke and duchess proceeded to the reception room, where, standing beneath an immense floral bell, they received the guests invited to the breakfast, among whom were Sir Julian Pauncefote and members of the British embassy, Miss Ar- mide Smith, Gov. and Mrs. Morton, Mr. and Mrs. Buchanan Winthrep, Mr. and Mrs. I. Townsend Burden, Mr. and Mrs. Frederic Bronson, Mr. and Mrs. William Post, Mr. and Mrs. Duer, Mr. and Mrs. Ogden Goe- let, Col. and Mrs. William Jay, the brides- maids and ushers. Bridal Trousseau. ‘The trousseau proper was made in New York, and in detail is the most elaborate and costly outfit ever selected for an American bride. The wedding gown is an elegant creation. The material is a very beautiful ivory satin, of delicate cream tint, with a flounce of point applique and point d’an- gleterre Brussels lace, twelve inches deep, which is arranged in four horizontal rows across the front and sides of the skirt, en- tirely concealing the satin. On the right side is a long spray of orange ssoms, which trails on the front and side panel of the skirt. The corsage is draped with chiffon, gath- ered full from collar to waistband, and partly covered with a deep flounce of lace. which binds the collar and hangs in graceful folds to the belt. Triple reveres of lace pro- ject over the sleeves, which are plaited full into the armhold, and cut in gauntlet style below the elbow, which is devoid of trimming. A spray of orange blossoms is fastened on the left shoulder, and hangs gracefully over the sleeves. The court train, which is a distinctive fea- ture of court gowns, is five yards in length, falling in double box-pleats from top to bot- tom. The court train is fastened to the shoulder below. the neckband, and is bor- dered with a delicate embroidery of pearls and silver, representing rose leaves, tied to- gether with true-lover knots. The train is the regulation length pre- scribed by the lord chamberlain for presen- tation to the queen at the court of St. James, and the gown, with the addition of a decollete bodice, will be worn by the duchess when she is presented to her majesty. Thi bridal veil is of rare Brussels lace, and will be fastened with a wreath of orange blos- som3. * ‘The lingerie is of the very finest silk, cambric and Irish linen, with exquisite laces, but a full description of this part of the trousseau will not be given out for pub- lication. Church Floral Decorations. St. Thomas’ Church was converted into a veritable conservatory of rare tropical foli- age and vines. Tne walls were lined with rare palms, and vines were used to a large extent in the decoration of the ceiling and the groined roof, which served as a back- ground for the mass of pink and white blos- soms used in the decorations. The columns on either side of the aisle were banded with sashes of pink and white chrysanthemums and brown autumnal foliage. Crowning the columns and completely hid- ing the stonework from view, was a cap of palm foliage, hanging tendrils and rare flowers. The columns supporting the dome from base to capital were wound round with broad sashes of pink and white chrys- anthemums, while the dome was lavishly hung with massive strands of foliage, pini and white flowers, lilies, chrysanthemums and roses. The several ends of the garlands reached te the chancel rail, the two organ alcoves, the right and left transepts and the north and south galleries. On the front of the galleries were placed medallions of maple foliage, and contrasted with it was delicate tinted borgonvilla, hiding the woodwork completely from view. Garlands of white and pink cosmos were festooned along the gallery rail around the entire church. Hanging from the galleries surrounding the entire edifice were pink, green and mauve orchid plants, which were offset by their darls green foliage. Across the chancel were three lofty arches of Gothic design, composed of asparagus fern, which formed a framework to thousands of bride roses and lilies which were used. Within the Chancel. The chancel rail proper was concealed with a trellis of lilies of the valley, and the two gates were decorated with farleyencis fern and white calleyea, which was exceptional owing to the scarcity of the flowers at this time of year. Above the reredos and on the ledges back of the chancel lofty palms and trailing vines were used, with white and pink flowers, chrysanthemums, roses, cos- mos and lilies of the valley. On the altar four large vases were filled with eucharis amazonica and lilies. On each side of the chancel arch groups of dracenas, crotons and rare hot house speci- mens were placed, besides growing bushes of bridesmaid roses. Backed against the decani and cantoris choir stalls were por- tleres of standard roses and growing pink lilies, which were arranged in such a way that the flowers graduated to the tile floor. Pink and white Alpine violets were used for edges. Ia place of the choir curtain, and partially concealing the organs, three arches of white and pink roses, with a grill work of chrysanthemums and cut palm foliage, were erected. The marble columns flanking the organ were entwined with sprays of climb- ing vines, with rose bushes grouped at the base. In the pulpit a century old palm was placed and around the sides were garlands of orchids and maidenhair ferns, with hang- ing grates of farleyencis fern as a drapery. At each end of the pews was placed a huge floral flambeau, ten feet high, sur- mounted by a feathery palm and embel- lished with pink and white roses. Holding the torches in position and entwining the staves were ribbons of white and pink satin, tied in bows and draped to the floor. - The galleries at the rear of the church were also decorated with paims and flowers, and the north transept and great east doors were framed with orchids, lilies, roses and chrysanthemums. At the Bride's Home. At the home of the bride the decorations were unique as to scheme and color. Pink tints predominated. I’aims were largely THE ap eos WEATHER MAP, fini qin i PW ayy oe EXPLANATORY NOTE: Observations taken at 8 a.m., 75th meridian time.

The marble trellis of the staircase was draped with foilensie ferns, banked with pink and yellow chrys- anthemums and edged with roses of a deeper pink. In the reception room a line of tall, South American itree ferns, over eight hundred years of age, were arranged | in front of all the windows ‘facing Madi- ; son avenue. mt Five of these tree ferns:were used form a canopy, from which sas suspended a bell of lilies-of-the-valley~eight feet in circumference, under which the bridal couple received the guests wbidden to the breakfast. On the trunks ef the ferns pink orchids re arranged, and«pink chrysan- themums were used in’ the Wpnking of the flower stands. The onyx amaniel columns, door-. “jams and wainsco: = were banked with pink and white Loy Pink, the favorite color of the bride, pre- dominated. The dining rqom was decorat- ed entirely in. pink andl white. Lilies-of- the-valley and exquisite pink orchids,which were brought specially from Blenheim, the ducal seat, were exclusively used. The bride’s table, which was ja!F for eighteen covers, was banked throusheut ts entire length with Hlles-of-the,yall@y and white orchids. The tables for “he guests were decorated with lilles and pink orchids. The two sitting rooms upstairs were decor- ated with yellow and white: chrysanthe- mums, and in the drawing room and other rooms vases filled with rare cut flowers were set on mantels and brackets, which were banked with pink and white chrysan- themums. Mrs. Vanderbilt's Costame. The gown worn by Mrs, Vanderbilt was of ciel blue satin of exquisite texture. The skirt was full-gored, cut long in the back, and severely plain, save for a two-inch-wide border of brown Russian sable, with which it was trimmed. The bodice was cut with a tight-fitting, coat-seamed back, terminating in two full box pleats, reachii:z to some six inches below the waist line, separating, to show two narrow bands of sable. Loose straight jacket sides of cream applique lace opened over a bouffant vest of white mous- seline de sole, embroidered in a small vine patterned with sea-green oyal-shaped pearls. The leaves joined together with a delicate tracery of silver. Appliques of this embroid- ery finished the top of the full elbow sleeves, which are finished at the lower edge with a full iwist of applique lace. Edging each armhole was a narrow band of brown sable, which terminated in two. tails of the same colored fur, pendant from each shoulder, over the flounces of lace on the jacket. The toque matched the costume, the sable being arranged in the form of wings placed on the side. The Bridesmaids’ Dress. The bridesmzids were gowned in pure whife satin, with broad girdles, and sashes of ciel blue satin, and ribbons of the same color as that used in Mrs. Vanderbilt's cos- tume. They wore hats of royal blue velvet, broadly trimmed with a full, gathered, bell- skaped crown, encircled with a ciel blue satin ribbon, finished on the right side with a chiffon rosette of the same cglor. The left sides of the hats were trimmed with six large pale-blue ostrich tips and a white aigrette, and the brims, which turned sharp- ly up in the back, were fastened with full ows of clel blue satin ribbon. Music at the Church. The service at the church was fully choral. Besides the organ music, Walter Damrosch’s symphony orchestra, number- ing sixty musicians, occupied a rear gal- lery and performed a varied program be- fore the ceremony. The orchestra played the processional mafch, and during the service alternated with the church choir. George William Warren, organist and direc- tor, presided at the organ, and was as- sisted by Mr. Walter C. Gale, assistant organist; Mr. Alfred Troulman, harpist; Mme.

The choir proper was ceaenased of forty- two members, consisting pf a woman's sur- pliced choir of twenty-eight, members and a male choir of fourteen members, which was divided according to thé’ Episcopal and Church of England serviée; into cantoris and decanil. When the bride reached the altar, hymn 238, “Oh, Perfect Love,” by’ Barnaby, was sung by the choir, accompanied by the organ and harp. Just before the benedic- tion an anthem, taken from#'the Church of England service, “God Be Merciful Unto Us and Bless Us,” Psalm 67, set in music by the late Dr. William Bayley of St. Paul's, London, was sung, wand after the benedictus the wedding march was played by the orchestra. The following pieces atid anthems were played: Last chorus and fugue, Mr. George Karl Martin, Olives,” Beethoven; “Ave Mari it ldszt;, fanfare, Lemmons; “The Magic Flute,”” Mozart; wedding music, extempore; “Marche du Sacre,” Meyerbeer. At the Bride’s Home. At the bride’s home tiie Royal Hungarian Band was in attendance. This band was spe- cially brought from Buda-Pesth by Mr. Carl Baringer, and was under the direction of Danke Gabor, leader. The band, which was an exceptionally good one, numbering forty musicians, was placed on the stairs, and the bright colors of the national Hungarian costume were in pleasing contrast with the floral decorations. The Vanderbilt March, specially compos- ed for the occasion by an intimate musical friend of Mrs. Vanderbilt, was played sev- eral times during the breakfast, and as the bride and groom led the way into the din- to!

SS eae A Lawyer's Ingenuity. Tom Wolfe was sentenced to a term of two years three months in the peniten- tiary by a Connersville, Ind., court the other day for burglary. The conviction of Wolfe depended largely on whether a man of his build could have crawled through a seven-inch transom. Prosecutor Smith pro- cured a window sash the size of the one in question, and demonstrated his theory be- fore the jury by getting down on the floor and wriggling through the hole. He con- vinced the jury and clinched his case. She Wanted a Change. From the Loulsville Truth. Cora—‘“‘Do the young men ever kiss you against your will?’ Florence—“‘Yes.

The new one is “Before They Were Married,” by Henry C. Parker. It is of com- manding interest, and those who read the first chapters will follow it eagerly to the end of the absorbing mystery. The first in- stallment will be published on Saturday, No- vember 9. Two hundred and fifty dollars in gold will be given for a correct solution of the mystery by a woman reader, according to the conditions printed elsewhere.

AN TlcpysPepr Ic, SOME SNUFFED OUT Democratic Presidential Resleants Now Politically Dead. MORTON AND WKINLEY BENEFITED Effect of the Elections on the Third Term. CLEVELAND NOT REJECTED ———_+—_____ Although fuller details may develop ad- ditional points of importance, the first re- turns from yesterday’s engagements are thought to be sufficient to answer the series of questions propounded in The Star Satur- day respecting the presidential aspirations involved in the struggle. Some have un- doubtedly been strengthened, while others appear to have been snuffed out altogether. Morton to the Front. On the republican side, and starting again with New York, Governor Morton, it is con- ceded, benefits greatly by the results there. He passes from a negative to a positive presidential quantity, and dangles even Mr. Cleveland's scalp at his belt. He asked, in a letter, for a republican majority in the state, and Mr. Cleveland, in a letter, for a democratic majority. The response is most decidedly in Governor Morton’s favor, and hence he becomes most decidedly his party’s leader. Platt, it is held, must now sup- port him in earnest. The New York delo gaticn in the next republican national con- vention must be a bona fide one, and not one selected under a mere pretense for trading purposes. It will have serious busi- ness on hand, and will be obliged to attend to it. Gov. McKinle: Winning. In Ohio Gov. McKinley has made a most substantial winning. The majority for the state ticket, gratifying as that must be to him, cannot, it is thought, give him the comfort that Mr. Foraker's election to the Senate must. Mr. Foraker has all along been the disturbing quantity. His loyalty to the McKirley presidential boom has re- peatedly been questioned. But is it not assured now? The ex-governor’s own am- bition has been to come to the Senate, and this he is at last to realize through the aid of the McKinley people. is, therefore, that henceforth the two men will stand shoulder ty shoulder, and that Mr. Foraker will present Gov. McKinley’s name to the national convention. The effect of all this on McKinley sentiment in the cther states will, it is believed, be salutary. His friends at a distance will all be encouraged. Allison in Iowa. In Iowa Mr. Allison achieved no more than was expected. But that was of a very substantial character, and will help him in the national field. He shows him- self to be still very strong at home, and his re-election to the Senate will come as a timely renewal of confidence in him. Mr. Allison, for all his modesty and dignity. may show a very spirited and even gay step in the ring for great stakes next year. All the Democrats Down. And row for the democrats. One of The Star’s questions Saturday related to what the effect of a democratic defeat all along the line would be. Such a defeat has come. Hill, Gorman, Carlisle, Campbell and Brice have all gone down “in one red burial blent.” Is there hope for a resurrection in any of their cases in time for next year? Mr. Hill is booked for retirement from the Senate; Mr. Gorman's defeat is overwhelm- ing; Mr. Campbell and Mr. Brice are twins in a disaster that suggests the fate of Pompeii. They may be uncovered in time, but the opinion prevails that they will be very dead when found. And as for Mr. Carlisle, he is certain to have difficulty expleining his part in the greatest row his state has known in thirty years, and the results of which may be felt that long. Matthews and Lamont. Has anybody escaped? Gov. Matthews of Indiana was not in the range of any hurt, and Colonel Lamont was in New. York and voted for the successful Tammany ticket. Would these two men and their good for- tune make a ticket? And would it be the stronger With the hoosier governor at the head of it? That would bring back the old ecntest, when the democracy made especial play for New York and Indiana, and, by adding them to the solid south, carried the day. Since then, however, the admission of new states has deprived that combination of its controlling power in the electoral col- lege. Effect on the Third'Term. And what ts the effect on the third term? When Judge Holman was asked about the third term gossip he smiled, and refused to believe that the gossip was sincere. Will the countenance of the national democracy take on now this Holmanesque expression? Or will the democratic leaders who have been putting Mr. Cleveland forward for an- other term insist upon it more than ever? These men are entirely sincere. They really believe that Mr. Cleveland Is the strongest man in the party before the people, and, so far from being discouraged in this view by yesterday's results, they are strengthened in it. One of these men said to a representa- tive of The Star this morning, glancing from the dispatches so heavy with his party's distresses: Cleveland Not Rejected. “Mr, Cleveland was nowhere rejected yes- terday. Factional fighting explains it all, and in every state the democratic leader rebuked had at cne time or another, and in one way or another, made war on the President. Mr. Hill, Mr. Gorman, Mr. Brice and Mr. Blackburn, that is the list. They are the men who have suffered. Mr. Cleye- land is still our strongest and most avail- able man.” —_—_+-2+—____.
