It has been punctuated by din- ners and other hospitalities and permeated with more gossip matrimonially and other- wise than could possibly have been looked for at this time of the year. The garden party season has been fully inaugurated, yesterday's event for the children’s country home attracting its friends in large num- bers, and being the first occasion of its kind to pass off without a downpour of rain. » Mrs. Fleming began her very pleasant Wednesdays at Oak View the past week and will be at home to her friends Wednes- days during the coming month. Three other fine places in that vicinity are closed this year by reason of family bereavements, Twin Oaks, the Hubbard place; Mr. and Mrs. Bell's place adjoining, and Mrs. Town- send’s house on Woodley Lane. Mrs. Scott, mother of the latter, died last week at At- lantic City, and her funeral took place from her home at Erie, Pa. The deceased lady had many friends in this city, having frequently spent the winter here. The Austrian picnic party early in the week and subsequently the dinners at the British embassy on the queen’s birthday, and Thursday to the Vice President and Mrs. Hobart at the Mexican legation, gave a diplomatic coloring to the formal hos- pitalities of the week. The Hengelmullers’ picnic was to give their guest, Count Deym of Austria, an opportunity to meet mem- bers of the diplomatic corps and other per- sonal friends of the host and hostess. The company gathered at the legation and pro- ceeded by car and carriages to Great Falls, where luncheon was served. Mrs. Moses P. Handy has sent out cards announcing the marriage of her daughter, Miss Alice Gordon Handy, to Mr. William Wallace Phelps of Montana, at Chicago, Saturday, May 21. The Marquis and Marquise de Merinville, the latter formerly Miss Mary Caldwell, were among the passengers who arrived at New York Monday from Paris. They are expected in Washington to visit the Catholic University, which is a monument to the munificence of the marquise, and later are expected to enjoy the season at Newport. The British ambassador and family ex- pect to spend most of the coming summer in this city, and Sir Julian will not leave this country until October. The early June weddings will be quiet ones. That of Miss Belknap and Mr. Bark- Ne Henry has been changed from a church ceremonial and large reception, as at first contemplated, to a quiet home event, to which only relatives and personal friends have been bidden, because of a recent death in the bride’s family. Another wed- -ding for the same date, June 7, will be that of Miss Anna Goldthwaite Campbell to Mr. Charles W. McFee, which will take place at Epiphany Church. Mr. and Mrs. Wayne McVeagh, who have occupied the Lowery house the past win- ter, have gone to Bryn Mawr, Pa., for the summer. * Ex-Secretary and Mrs. Foster will close their I street house in a few days and go north for the summer. Mr. Lansing, their son-in-law, is now with them for a little visit. Mrs, Dulles, daughter of ex-Secretary and Mrs. Foster, has an autograph album in which Aifonso XII, father of the boy King of Spain, wrote above his signature @ sentence which is full of meaning at present. It was this: “The king of the country of traditions sends greetings to the country of the future.” Mrs. Charles M. Pepper has removed to 1523 R street for the summer, where she is at home to her friends. The annual banquet of the Phrenaskeia took place at Mt. Airy, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin H. Miller of Sandy Spring, last evening. A table extending the length of two rooms seated the thirty. eight members, and it was beautifully deco- rated with greens and yellow flowers, those being the society colors, while at each place was a jacqueminot rose. The presi- dent and secretary, Caleb Stabler and Miss Augusta N. Thomas, were seated at one end of the board and the toastmistress, Miss Ellen H. Thomas, at the other. Seven courses were served, and these were in- terspersed with speeches and_ original songs, set to familiar airs, which were sung with vim by nearly all present. The toasts were to Phrenaskeia, to “The rural hub” (Sandy Spring), to Mt. Airy, to the bride and groom, Mr. and Mrs. Newton Stabler; to Phrenaskeia lassies, to Phren- askeia laddies, to “My ideal,” to “My Sweethearts” and lastly. after a fine reci- tation from Scott by Miss Ellen H. Thom- as, to “My mother.” One of the most amusing features was a rice pudding, serv- ed by Miss Rebecca T. Miller, in honor of the newly wedded pair, who had cleverly escaped the usual vexatious baptism of the uncooked article. This was accompanied by appropriate quotations for each and all, which were read by the recipients amid much merriment at the many harmless personalities contained therein; the bride’s pertion was handed her in a white china slipper. The company remained at the ta- ble three hours and a half, and closed their charming festive reunion by singing “‘Amer- ica.” There was a merry gathering of young folks Wednesday evening at the home of Miss Myrtle A. Jacoby, 621 New Jersey avenue, it being the fifteenth anniversary of her birthday. Music and games were en- joyed until 10 o’ciock, when refreshments were served. The table was decorated with roses and vines. Among those present were the Misses Rosa Essex, lda Younger, Flos- sie Bateman, Lena Fowler, Addie Thomas, Clara Chase, Nannie Dougherty, Florence Bailey, Hattie Poole, Mildred Schmaling, and Messrs. Foster Lynch, Bennie Hayes, Raymond French, Frank Wise, Harry Mc- Auley, Willie Shipley, Arthur Sargent, Gil- bert Merriam, Walter Furbershaw and Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Schmaling. ‘The Abracadabras held their last meeting ruises, sunburn and prickly | for the year at the home of Mrs. H. N. Sterns. The responses at roll call were words of farewell and was quite an inter- esting feature of the evening's entertain- ment. The essay by Miss Sterns on libra- ries was followed by a short paper on Cuba by Mrs. J. D. Croissant. The program con- cluded with a patriotic song by little Haf- 3|riet Harding, and the club adjourned, 1 >| meet next October. Members of the ib and visitors present were Mr. and Mrs. A. ¢|P.

If today’s cable announces the departure of the new Russian minister, Count Cassini, for these the wedding day will be an early date in June. Miss Tisdel fs tall and graceful, has dark hair and a most expres: serious wher. in repose, but most attractive in her merry moods, which are by far the most frequent. Besides her intellectual attain- ments and linguistic ability, she has had a piectical education in housekeeping arts, which will be of service, no matter in what country she may dwell. The annourcement of this marriage has revived the other international unions, which have taken place in this city be- tween members of the Russian diplomatic service and fair Washingtonians. The first was that of Barcn Bodisco, then minister here, and the beautiful young Georgetown belle, Miss Williains. Their granddaughter, it will be remem- bered, was a lady in waiting upon the czarina at the coronation last year of the czar and his noble spouse. More recently was the marriage of Miss Sophie Radford, Gaughter of Admiral Radford to Mr. de Meissuer, secretary of the Russian legation. Shortly after their engagement was an- nounced, while out riding with a party of young people, Miss Radford’s horse ran away with her and she received such se- vere injuries that {t was months before her health was restored. The ding took place the fall afterward and was a notable event. ‘The young son of the couple has recently had the honor of serving as a page at the Russian court. ty of Washingtonians over Sunday at Ash- burn, Va., the Stewart farm. Mrs. R. M. G. Brown will not leave town for a week or so yet, and will then join her parents, ex-Senator and Mrs. Davis, at their summer home at Elkins.

Gorman Favors a Corporation Tax—Mr. Cockrell’s Argument. Mr. Gorman spoke in the Senate yester- day efternoon in support of a tax on coi perations and denounced as “infamous” the decision of the Supreme Court dectar- ing the income tax law of 1894 unconstitw ticnal. The warning sounded by some sen- ators that if a tax were placed upon cor- perations it would be pronounced uncon- stitutional by the Supreme Court had, he said, no effect upon him. A decision against sich an enactment would not destroy our financial structure, but it would destroy the ecurt which should hand it down. Mr. Gcrman took issue with the majority of his fellow democrats upon their propositions to coin the silver seigniorage, and to issue legal tender notes, and made an argument in favor of the issuance of bonds to raise funds with which to prosecute the war. Mr. Nelson (Minn.) presented a carefully prepared argument ageinst the issue of le- gal tender notes. In a speech of two hours, Mr. Cockrell @fo.) discussed the financial questions in ecntention between the democratic and re- publican parties. He urged that the bill as repcrted by the majority of the finance committee ought to be enacted into law. Mr. Allison, in charge of the bill, pro- pesed that a time be agreed upon to vote upon the series of amendments relating to cerporation taxes. Mr. Jones (Ark.) objected on account of the numerous important amendments of- fered to the bill which had materially a tered the situation. These measures were passed: Donating a condemned cannon to the thirty-second na- tienal encampment, G. A. R.; providing for a survey of the harbor at Sheboygan, Wis.; and extending the time for the completion of the Fort Smith and Western railroad. At 5:10 p.m. the Senate went into execu- tive session, and soon afterward adjourned urtil 11 o’clock today. Mr. Cockrell made a long argument in favor of the free coinage of silver and of the issue of legal tender notes. He main- tained that an issue of greenbacks was infinitely preferable to interest-bearing un- taxable obligations which afforded a hid- ing place for the money of capitalists, who through bonds always could be assured of gain without chance of loss. “Sacrifices must be made in this war,” declared Mr. Cockrell. “Two hundred thousand men have been taken from the industrial pursuits of the country and are engaged in waste and destruction. War is waste. War creates loss and destruction. All people should bear the burdens alike. Sacrifices must be made, but we cannot lighten the burdens or prevent the losses of the war by an issue of bonds.” He said that the idea of sending the proposed bonds to the post offices in order that they might appear to be a popular loan was a “fraud and a fake on the very face of it.” The bonds, he maintained, would be paid for in gold, and the necessary amount of gold was not in the hands of the people, but in those of capitalists, and capitalists would control the issue. Mr. Gorman (Md.) said he approved of some provisions of the House bill, and one of the amendments made by the Senate committee. His effort would, however, be jy just and equitable than it now is. The bill ought to be framed, he said, upon lines of simplicity and fairness. country has the Spanish army and navy to confront. That is a question we ought to fight out in a time of peace.” Mr. Gorman advocated an issue of bonds, “What war,” he asked, “was ever com- ducted without the issue of bonds? The wat of the rebellion began with an issue of bonds, even before the first gun was fired on Fort Sumter. One of the first acts of the confederate government was the issue of 7 per cent bonds.” He declared that af the bond provision proposed should not be enacted into law, the crisis would come, perhaps within thirty days, and the Presi- dent would be forced to issue bonds under the act of 1875, at probably 4 or 5 per cemt interest. He thought the President would be fully justified in selling at least $300,- 000,000 of bonds in protecting the dignity and honor of the country and in insuring svecess to our arms. Mr. Gorman, in com- clusion, declared his opposition to the irsug of legal tender notes. —--2-<+____. WILL RAISE & WAR FUND. Members of D. A. R Continae Work im Hoxpitals.
