Married in London. stly a Unit, [Copyright 18%9 by James Gordon Bannett,) Pamis Sept. b—(New York Herald Oable—Special to Tne Bee.|—By comparing the manifesto issued by the Comte de Paris with the declaration made in Figaro by Prince Victor, it is not dificult to discover how far the two princes keeo together and where they part company. They agreed to n:ake a combined essault on the present governthient,to accept as allios all who offer themselves, and to convoke the constit- uent assembly should the assault be crowned with success. At this point, how- ever. a hitch arises. The Compte de Paris acknowledges the advisability of plebiscitum and the necessity of government; that is to have the “ussent of the nation.” Prince Victor somewhat dis- dainfully congratulates his royal rival and new recruit, but declares that he will be content with nothing less than direct plebis- citum on the three forms of gov- ernment—republic, monarchy, empire and other “‘trumpery kind of national assent” would be utterly unsatisfactory. This slight divergence of ovinion as to the nature of the vlebiscitum hecomes ubyssmal when the pretender takes up the question of results. For the Comte de Paris the plebiscitum means the restora- tion of monarchy, for Prince Victor it means an empire, and then General Bov- langer takes it vo mean the establishment of a uational republic. In case the merits of the plebiscitum should be put to the test, at least two of the three persons who huve built up their hopes on it will be sorely de- ceived. It is scarcely probable that Victor could count upon a resignation and a sub- mission of his worsted competitors and their supporters, who would be much more likely to cry out that there has been a misdeal of political cards, that some one had not played fair and square, and that the game had ought to begin a fresh thing I will not go so far, however. Even supposing that the hopes of the three allied camps should be realized; that they should obtain & majority in the next chamber; that they should succeed by fair means or foul in ridding themselves of both Carnot and the senate. The most difficult part of their task will yet remain when the time should come for con- sulting tue nation. There would be ascramble for the points of vantage. Each party would struggte to conduct the plebiscitum after the fashion it considers best calculated to ad- vance its own interests. Rivalries between d¥vers pretenders would break out fresh and with redoubled force. The story of the constituents would be that of the national assembly from 1571 to 1874, when the republicans possessed & majority in that sovereign nssembly. They endeavored, but vainly, to overthrow the republ They wasted their time i barren wrang ling and floally w fain to ac- knowledgetheir impotence. Tkisexperience would be repeated were the three parties, who are not banded together for electoral purpo- 808, to be returned in a majority to the forth- coming chamber, They would fight their old battles over aguin, this time with greater violence than before, so that the sword would perhaps be the flnal ar- bitration, ——— CHAMBERLAIN MARRIED. Famous American Wedded to an [Copyright 1389 by Jamss Gordn Bannstt | LoxpoN, Sept. b.—[New York Herald Cable —Special to Tur Ber.] — Jennie Chamberlnin, known in many lauds for many years as the American beauty, was married to-day to Lieutenant Herbert Taylor Leyland, of the Second Life Guards at St. George's, Hanover square. The church was profusely and tastefully decorated. The communion rails were almost hidden in white lilies and exotic plants, and large spreading palms adorned the chancel steps. The bridegroom is very popular with his regiment. The bright uniforms of twenty-two life guards, who lined the awsle from door to chancel, gave an effective appearance to the scene, The bride worea dress of heavy white satin, richly embroidered with silver and pearls, orange blossoms boraered the en- tire train and outlined empire sash. Sho wore tulle veil reaching to tha end of the train, and carvied a handsome bou. quet of rare white blossoms. She was given away by her father, W. S, Chamberlain, The bride's sister, Miss Jose- phine Chamberlan, was the only brides- maid. Mr. P. Luunivg, of Cleveland, was best man, The bridesmaid wore a charming gown of poule de sole, elegantly trimmed with mousseline de chiffon and o large fichu of the same. The bridegroom'’s present was s mogoficent ruby and diamond crescent. Invitations to the wedding were confined to the immediate relations of the bride and bridegroom. Immediately after the ceremony the dinner was laid at Claridge's hotel, Brook jstrect, and was largely attended. Early in the afternoon Mr. and Mrs, Taylor Leyland left London for the continent for a lengthy honey- moon tour, The bride's going-away dress was of gray cloth, trimmed with satin und mousseline de chiffon, and u veil hat most tastefully ornamented, Numerous and costly presents included from the prince of Wales to the bride & magnificent large diu- mond aud pearl horsesnoe brooch; to the bridegroow, o large diamund and ruby pin. 3 B CROWDED STEAMERS, Miss ‘The Beauty iinglishma Three of Them Bringing Over Nearly Four Thousand reople.

The Final Deposit Made and the Referes Ohosen. [Copyright 1589 by James Gordon Bennstt.\ Loxpox, Sopt. 5.—[New York Her- ald Cable—Special to Tue Bre.]—The main room of the Star and Garter at Putney was jammed so fuil of men and tobacco smoke to- night that neither the floor nor ceiling was visible. 'The fiual deposit in the aquatic con- test between O'Connor and Searle for the championship of the world was to be made, a referce and distance judge were to be agreed upon, avd the partisans of both men were to show how they felt by permitting their woney to talk. The meeting was to be opened at 8 o’clock; of course no business was done until 9, but between those hours there was a gathering of men who had done mighty things with the oar, and who-expect-to-be-ex-champions ot England decorated every quarter of the room. Higgins, who had won the Sport- man’s challenge cap three consecutive times, and has it yet, was there. Haulan, who parformed the same feat, was not there. Dave Goodwin, another champion, was there. Bill East, who was considered the coming champion, but did not get there, was present. Tom Green, another ex-champion, was 1n the gathering, Bubvear, wio was booked on both sides of the Atlantic, was of course there. The Austraiian contmgent was present in force. In it were Charles Crane, the principal backer of Searle, Joseph and Iar- ney Thompson, the big book makers, and twenty others, Rogers, who has become O'Connor’s backer, sat to the front. Near him ias Representative Fred Mossap, and close at hand were John O'Grady Car- michael, John K. Ryan, O'Connor’'s brother, and four or five other Canucks. Rogers nominated W. J. Innes, better known under the non de plume of *‘Pega sus,” for chairman. One thing necessary was a copy of the articles of agreement, and of course nobody had ons. Still they were not wanted, as everybody knew them by heart. The first thing to. do was for each side to plunk down £2). Crane paid up for Searle, and Rogers. did so for O'Connor. Who was to be umpire! Crane proposed Benjamin Hortoy, captain of the London Rowing clab, Rogers vroposed R. J. Labor, of the same club. The latter intimated that Horton was agood man. Horton was chosen. W. H. Low e was selected for distance judge. Ho 18 a ship broker, also a member of the Lon- don Rowing club aud old enough to know all about boat racing. These preliminaries having been disposed of, Crane stood up and offered to bet £1,000 or uny part of it on Searle, There was no response. Prior to the meeting, T talked with a Cana- dian, who agreed to touch nothing lower than 6 to 4. As nobody displayed the slight- est desire to accept Crane's offer, Chairman Innes rose and said he had a pleasant com- munication to make. This was that the Sportsman’s chullenge cup will be thrown in with the championship. The old conditions were that the cup must be rowed for on the Thames and Tyne and won three consecative times to pass out of the Sportsinan’s ownership. The proseut owner, Waullace Ross, had waived his title to the cup. There were cheers for Ross. Stew- ards Lora Londesborough, Sir Jonn Astley and Mr. Chinnery had agreed to alter the conditions 8o that they read that the cup should be rowed for on the Thames or Tyne, “Chus matter disposed of, Bookmaker Joseph Thompson offered to bet £1,000 to £500 vhat Searle would win, Rogers retorted with an offer of £400 to £6)0 on O'Connor. “Why, you have got a champion,” said Thompson. “He is only champion of America.” “You have the champion of the world,” replied Rodgers. Suddenly Mossap called out: *‘One thous- and to fifteen hundred on O’Connor.” Quick as a flash Thompson suid: “I’ll take it.” Before the money was put up Carmichael, of Toronto, repeated the be:. Thompson accepted 1t again and the money was put in Innes’ hands. The Australians then pulled n their horns and would nov give a better quotation than 10 to 8, at which figure not a pound was lnid, The Canadians and Americans will wait for 2 Lo 1 and on the day of the race, or be- fore it, they will get it, as the Australians have the most money, have unlimited confi- dence in Searle and are determined to take home as much Canadian and American cash as they can induce the new world men to risk. Of course, neither of the oarsmen were at the meeting. Both are in good form and both are cenfident. P WHARFINGERS GIVING IN. Q'CON The Striking Dock Laborers in Lon- don Victorious.

The Rock lsland Stands Stubbornly By Abbott—The McNulta Story Unfounded-~Jeffory’s Suce occssor Interviewed, Abbott 1s Too Truthful. Cuicaco, Sept. 5.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bre.|—The Western States Passenger association is without a chairman, This much at least was definitely decided to-day, though there 18 no chancs whatever for the immediate election of a successor to Mr. Abbott., At the morning's session a vain attempt was made to elect a permanent chair- man. ‘The vote was about even between Traftic Manager White, of the Santa Fe, and ex-Vice President Newman, of the Mis- souri Pacific, It was agreed at the afternoon session that there was no use in further balloting for chairman, and it was floally decided to put the offfice temporarily in the hands of See- retary Thompson, of the association. Mat- ters will probably continue in this way for at least a month, although the meeting adjourned subject to the call of Acting Chair- man Tucker. Said Mr. Tucker at the close of the afternoon session: ““The new agreement of the Western States Passenger associatior is dated February 1. It calls for the election uf a chairman, but by resolution Mr. Abbott was continued in ofice unul the June meeving. That meeting was adjourned to this time, making this legally the June meeting. Under the resolutions'T could not do otherswise thau declare the ofice of chairmun vacant. Mr. Newman allowed the use of his name in hopes that he could be elected temporary chairman and tide over the present difficulty. Mr. White kindly allowed the use of his name, but has now withdrawn. There are practically no caudidates for the position, Lhere is & good salary in connec- tion with it, buv we have not been able to unite on anyone. No one has any butthe highest regard for Mr. Abbott's ability. The only eriticism 1 have heurd on bim is that he was not strict enough in enforcing his It was the belief that he had not rd on the boys instead of too hard, seems to have caused the feeling.” The Times to-morrow will say May the inter-state commerce commi summoned before it all passenger officials and association chairmen in the country. Among them was Chairman Abbott. It came out that the members of the Western States Passenger association had employed a private detective to ferret out irregulari- ties und violations of the rules and to re- port all such cases to the chairman, By this means Mr. Abbott had cowe into the possession of much information concerning ti cret manipulations of pas- senger rates, collusion with scalpers, etc., all of which he was compelled to reveal to the commission when put. under oath. A num- ber of western ronds were thus placed in a bad light, and while a few had the backbone to take their medicine, others have been pa- tiently waiting for an opportunity to punish Mr., Abbott for daring to tell the truth, Jeffory’s Successor Interviewed. Cuicago, Sept. 5.—[Special Telegram to Tne Bee.|—President-eiecct Manvel, of the Atchison, arrived in Chicago to-day.

The farm is about twenty miles from Philadelphia. The exercises of the day were commemora- tive of the founding of the Presbyterian church in the United States. Log College ‘was established in 1726 by William Tennen- ant and flourished until 1742, when Princeton college was founded. Prosident Harrison and Mrs. Harrison, Rev. J. W. Scott and Private Secretary Fal- ford arrived from Washiagton last evening and spent the night at Pestmaster Genoral ‘Wanamaker's counvry home in Jenkintown. Early this morning the prosdent and party started for the place where the exercises were beld, driving in carriages over the old York road, a distance of ‘about eight miles. The route along which the party travelod was profusely decorated with flags and bunting, the farm houses, fences and trees showing evideuces of the peo- ple's intention to muke the presidenvs journey a memorable one. Tents had been erected on Tennenant farm, and an im- mense crowd from the surrounding country and Philadelphia, including many promiuent Presbyterian divines from all over the coun- try, were present. At 11:20 the services of the day were opened with the reading of the scripture and prayer. ‘The president, leaning on the arm of Mr. Wanamaker, entered the large tent soon after and was given a most entnusiastic wel come, They wore followed by others of the party and all took front seats on the raised platform. Governor Beaver was also of the party. As 800n as they wore seated the first paper of the day was read by Rev. D. K. Turner, of Harisville, descriptive of the founding of Log colloge and the useful ca- reer of its founder. He was followeda by Rev. R. M. Pattison, 6f Philadelphia, editor of the Presbyterian, who delivered an ad- es8 on *‘Log College Evangelists.” Rev. Frances L. Patton, president of Princeton college, was next on the pro- gramwme for un address, but as he was unablo 10 be present, owing to the death of nis son, Revy. Dr. Mutay, dean of Princcton college, vered the address in his pla Next came Rev. Richara Mclivane, pres- ident of Hampton Sydney college, Virginia, who read u paper on **I'he Influence of Log College in the South.” At the conclusion of this address President Harrison was in- troduced. The assemblage at this time numbered 25,000, and this vast audience areose and repeatedly cheered the president as he came to the front of thé platforin. Mr., Harrison spoke substantially as fol- lows: ‘I have had illustrated to me to-day one of the consistent. graces and tenets of the Presbyterian church, Nothing, [ assure you, short of the robust émbodiment of tho doctrine of the perseverance of the saints in the person of our distinguished brother, the chairman who has just introduced me, could have overcome the dificulties which seem to be iu the way of those who atteud celebrations. 1 have also had illustrated to me, 1 regret to say, another of the results of persistent Presbyterianism. 1 never at any time promised to make an address here to- day. I thank you for your hospitable troat- ment of me and mine to-day, but I must say I have much pleasure in being here, for every impulse of honest pride which stirs your’ 4earts, moves mine. Iam glad to stand here at.the source of a great movement. I have seen the Mississippi river pouring out its édormous flood and I have had the pleasure of standing at the source of the great Missouri, but what is the force and energy implied by these rushing streams when comparea with the movement inaugurated here? (Apvlause). I am glad to be here to help the celebration of these great impulses springing from a small be- ginning, aud yet how far-reaching in results nd effects, [ don’t waont unduly to exalt the Presbyterian church, and yot I t historians who have been untouched by par- tisunship testify that it has been maguifi- utly pressed ouward. Let us take no backward steps. Let us continue to merit the favor of God and do his work until the world shall cease to move. Steadfastness is our characteristic. Our enemies have called it obstinacy, aud there ave occasions wien even that” 'trait and that characterist have its services. Let us, my friends, con- tinue to be steadfast to faith nurtured and strengthened on this sucred spot.” In concluding his address the president said: “Let me kindly thank you for this most cordial and brotherly greeting. Let me wish that this day will close as auspi- ciously as it has opened. Let me hope that the scholarly addresses which you have heard read from the manuseript—(laughter) —will convey new thoughis to your minds and that you will carry away from here pleasant recollections of the day's celebra- tion,” Al the close of the president’s address there was a scene of the wildest exoitement, for five minutes men and women chesring and waving their handkerchiefs and in other ways showing their approval of the chief exccutive's sentitnents, ~Afrer the singing of a hymn, the morning exercises closed at 1:80. The president and party were escorted to a special tent prepared for them, where a bountiful lunch was spread, he tent was beautifully decorated with flowers, and in addition to the president's party all the prominent members of the presbytery were there, About three quarters of an hour was con- sumed at table. The lunch was entirely in- formal and at its conclusion the president, Mrs. Harrison and Rev. Mr. Scott enterad their carriage and started back to Mr, Wan- namauker's at 2:20, The departure of the president did not scem 1o 16sson tho sizo of the orowd at tho afternoon session. Governor Beaver read an address eulogistic of Lo college and its founder. Postmaster General Wanamaker spoke briefly and closed by suggesting the rebuilding of Log college in a form as nearly resembling the original as possible, in mem ory of Tennenant, Whitfield and the early Presbyterian herocs. o Leters of regret were read from Rev. Dr, Samuel Alexander, of New York, Rev. Dr. McCosh, ex-president of Princeton college, wnd Governor Green, of New Jersey. After sever.lother short addresses the celobration ended at 6 o'clock by the pronun- ciation of the benediction by Rev. J. W. Scott, the venerable father of Mrs. Harrison, and the most memorable day in the history of Buclks county, and one which will long be remembered by those préseut, was brovght 1 a close, Spendins the Night with Wanamaker JENKINTOWN, Pa., Sept. 5.—1he prosident’s return trip to Postmastmasier General Wan- amaker's house was aecomplished without special incident.

Experts for the Oranin Suspects Granted the Priviloge Cn1oaco, Sept. 5.—[Special Telogram to Tue Bre|—The proceedings in the Cro- nin trial were resumod this morning. The firat thing that occunied the attention of the court was the petiuion of Attorney Korrest, for the defeuse, that the experts ot the de- fense be allowed to obtain and examine spec- imens of the blood stains on the trunk, the Carlson cottage, cotton batting and the towel found in the catch basin. The court de- cided that it might be done if the state were represented by its experts at the timo of tho experiments. Forrest tried liard to gt the court to order that the experts for the dofense be allowed to get some of the specimens from the walls of the Carlson cottage, agreeing to divide them evenly with the state. He charged that the state had interfered to prevent this, States Attorney Longenecker pooh-poohed this statement. Judge McConnell declined to take any action on that poiut. Then the ex- amination of talesmen was resumed. Out of several scores of talesmen exam- 1ned 1t 1ooks this evening as though only one man, Freoman Gross, would be detinitely ac- cepted by the counsel of both sides as a sat- isfactory juror iz the Cronin trial. Gross has been successively tendered to each sde by the other and a peremptory challenge only can now give him exemption. Indeed, it 18 a disputed question among attor- neys whether, having been tendered by each side 10 the other, he is louger subject to even a peremptory challenge. In anv event he has been retained now for two days and appears perfectly acceptable to both sides. Of course Mr. Gross’ cuts are in the meantime being thor- oughly iuquired into by the army of de- o that both sides have revained at this stage, and discoveries may yet be made which will cause one side or the' other to attemp the effect of a peremptory chal- longo. ‘Phere are loud complaints among the dis- charged talesmen at the methods being pur- sued by priv: ves to ferret into the antecedents and personal affairs of veniremen during the period of their reten- and preceding their examination, ‘The discharzed jurors say thut on return- ing to thew houses and acquaint ances they havo been astonisned to learn that during their absence a swarm of detectives have furtively circulated among their friends, barrassed their business nsso- ciates and acquaintences, and even invaded the sanctity of their homes on imuginaave missions in the search of detailed nforma- tion in regard to the private life, hubits and opinions of the prospective jurors, Up to the close of to-day’s seasion the de- fense had exhausted twenty of their per- emptory challenges, nineteen on behalf of Daniel Coughlin,ani one on behalf of Patrick O'Sullivan.

It Will Not Be Open to Settlement Til Spriog. CONGRESS MUST RATIFY |IT. The Agreement Between the Commiss sioners and the Indians Is Not Valid Till Then—More Ex- tra Scssion Talk. WaASHINGTON OUNTEENTIL STRERT. WasiiNaros, D, C., Sept. B, In spite of the somi-official uenials which have constantly been sent from Washington, the iuterosted parties in Chamberlaiu and Piorre, S. D., and other towns in the neigh- borhood of the Sioux reservation, soon to be opened to settlement, persist up to the present moment in sending out paragraphs tothe e that the reservation will be opened by presidential proclamation, and withont further action by congross, Secrotary Noble returned to his desk for the first time since his vacation to-day, and was asked by your correspondent what he hiad to say in regard to the matter. ‘The seo- retary was told thav the reports coming from Dakota were working considerablo hurm, in that they were induo- ing people w0 prepare for immediate immi- gration into tho lands of the Sioux. Mr. Noble said that the two ncts of March 9, referring to this matter, namely, the so- called Indian appropriation bill and the Sioux bill proper, seemod at first to conflict w some extent and made it necessary that the real meaning of congress s uld be con- strued, Itwas under the appropriation, he suid, and not under the Sioux bill that the commission to negotiate with the Sioux was appointed, and it was under this same bill that they carriod on thois work. The séeretary said that he could not speak for the president, but he was sure neverthe- less that the reservation wili not be opened until congress shall have had an opportunity to ratify the agreement entered into between the commissioners and the Sioux. He went further, and said that one of tho reasons why this action was taken was a desire ou tho part of the government that the lands should not be thrown open just as the winter was setting in, thereby creating an influx of pop- ulation into the country which, in the very nature of thing could not support its new inhabitants through thei first winter. The secretary explain that congress will immediately ratify the ac- tiou of the commissioners and that there will be little delay in opening the reservation to settlement as soon as the weather settles 1 the spring. BBut ha1s emphatic and positive in asserting that no intruders will be per= mitted to cross the line until that action has Leen taken by congress.

Whether or not the president will decide to call congress together before December will des pend largely upon the advice and suggestions. of nis authorized advisers. There is a do- cided difference of opinion . among the lead- ing republicans who have been in Washiug. ton during the last month as to the savisas bility of u call. It seems to be the prepon- derance of opinion among them that very little is to be zained by it.
