Mrs. Harriman paid honor to Wood- row Wilson and to the League of Na- tions, stating that Mr. Wilson “was a crusader in the greatest moral movement since the days of Christ,” and that “nothing could now destroy the League of Nations, composed of H world."” W. Nicholson, ssional vice for Maryland and pre ederation of Women's Democratic Clubs in that State, flayed the Re- publicans, charging broken promises. “When that party came into power in 1921 it had both the Senate and the House back of the President.” said Mrs. cholson, “and it was réea- sonable to expect a prompt fulfill- ment at that time of its campaign promises. But nothing has been done in that direction during the past four years. 1t is incredible to believe that such a record will receive the in- dorsement of the people in Novem- ber,” said Mrs. Nicholson. West Virginian Speaks. Mrs. Frank N. Mann, national com- mitteewoman for West Virginia, who was in Washington for a day, was a guest of honor at the meceting.

By Cable to The Star and New York World. Copyright, 19 PARIS, October 11.—8ince their marriage last week, Sir Basil and Lady mharoff, the richest pair of newlyweds in Kurope. have suc- ceeded in keeping themselves se- cluded. They are spending their honeymoon at Sir Basil's Chateau of Balincourt, an hour's motor ride from here, and, according to reports from the little town, not even the vil- lagers have had more than a distant glimpse of them since the ceremony. The bride-groom has issued strict in- Junctions to his staff of retainers that no strangers shall be permitted to his grounds under any circumstances, and all approaches to the chateau are diligently patrolled. The Chateau Balincourt is not only one of the most magnificent ress- dences in France, but possesses the additional romantic interest of hav- ing been presented to the Baroness de Vaughan by her royal admirer and protector, King Leopold of Belgium. The “man of mystery” bought it from her. Was Persistent Suitor. The unannounced wedding has add- ed to Sir Basil's distinction of being one of the five wealthiest individuals in the world the further claim to the title of one of the most persistent wooers on record. For 30 year: e now turns out, the capitalist, who was born in 1850 and is a compara- ttively feeble, bent, white-haired old man of 74, has known and been de- voted to his wife, who till recently was the Duchess de Villa Franca de los Caballeros. Her husband, a mem- ber of the Bourbon-Espagne family and a kinsman of King Alfonso, died some 15 months ago. She is many vears younger than her new spouse, in whose crowded life she has ap- parently filled the place of the one great love. She herself, it is said, comes from one of the oldest noble families in Spain, her maiden nane having been Maria del Pilar de Muguire. Dowry for Daughter. Four vears ago, when the younger of her two daughters was married to the Count Jean d'Ostrorog of Poland, Sir Basll gave the bride a dowry equivalent to $1,000,000 and also took charge of the wedding ceremony. For many vears there have been two great mysteries surrounding Sir Basil Zachariah Zaharoff—who he is and what he does. He is believed to have begun his picturesque career as an errand boy in Constantinople, and to have laid the foundation of his fortune somewhere around Odessa though another story goes that his rise started with services of inestim- able value of some sorf or another rendered to an Infanta, or Infante, of Spain. Today he is in oil, steel, armaments and banking in half a dozen countrles. He is even reported to have an interest in the famous gambling concession at Monte Carlo.
