The impressive ceremony took place In the drawing-room, elaborately decorated for the event. The bride’s sister, the eld- | er Miss Patten, as hostess and the others | | as attendants were her only relatives present. Miss Patten, the bride’s sister, received the guests. When the President and Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss Roosevelt arrived they were received by the Secre- tary of War and escorted to the places them. General Corbin's daughter, Mrs. Willlam M. Parsons of New York, and her husband were pres- ent. The bride entered the drawing-room with Senator John P. Jones of Nevada, a long-time friend of the Patten family. The bride's wedding dress was of heavy white satin, having a very long train. Tha waist was laid in soft, loose folds of the satin down to the belt line, and across the shoulders and chest was a cape or yoke of finely plaited tulle, bordered by a wide fall of rare old point d’Alencon lace. The neck was finished by a softly folded stock coilar of white satin, and the sleeves were made after the most re- cent Paris fashion, growing very large at the hand and gathered at the wrist into a long, closely fitting cuff of shirred tulle, held in place by narréw pipings of white satin. On the sleeves was also much of the same point d'Alencon lac: as on the waist. The wedding veil was very long, falling to the edge of the train, and was of rich point lace. The bride was preceded by her sisters, Miss Josephine Patten and Miss Helen Patten, who wore gowns of white silk muslin. Each wore a diamond bar pin, souvenir gifts from the bridegroom. General Corbin. who was attended by Colonel Dyer of New York as best man, wore his full dress uniform, as did also his staff, who acted as ushers, and all other army officers present. The wedding, presents filled several large rooms, their number running into the hundreds. They included laces, fans and antiques in gold, silver and porcelain, as well as jewelry, of which there was a dazzling _coilection. Convicted of Falsehood. HARRISBURG, Pa., Nov. 6.—Dr. Silas C.

Elliott Will At- tempt to Free Him on Insanity Plea. SAN JOSE, Nov. 6.—Harry L. Elliott, who killed J. W. Sherman on October 27, in a North Market street house, was to- day, at his preliminary examination be- fore Justice Cobb, held to answer to a charge of murder. The principal witness was Mrs. Bessie Sherman, wife of the murdered man and over whom the shoot- ing occurred. She repeated the same story she had told at the inquest. Mrs. Sher- man said she first met her husband in a dance hall en Larkin street, San Fran- cisco, and six weeks later they were mar- ried. She had known Elliott for five years and had recelved numerous letters from him, in which he wrote madly of love and marriage. Blliott did not take the stand. His de- fense will be insanity. He has been act- ing queerly since his confinement in jail, is morose and refuses to talk. Some are inclined to think he is insane, and not merely shamming. A rich uncle of his in Cincinnati, O., has employed Attorney Leuls Oneal to defend him. S s 2 Chamberlain Arouses Germans. BERLIN, Nov. 6.—The demonstrations against the reflections east upon the con- duct of the German troops in the Franco- Prussian war by Joseph Chamberlain in.| his Edinburgh speech continue.

RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 6.—To-day the Albemarle County Court heard the peti- tion to appoint a committee for John Armstrong Chanler, the divorced husband of Amelie Rives, now the Princess Trou- betzky, the allegation being that Chanler was insane. After examining a number of witnesses the court refused’ the peti- tion, holding that nowhere did the testi- mony show insanity. This decision settled the question of Chanler's ability to man- Ifi his own property interests in Virginia, which will now be turned over to him.

Grand Opera Season Prom- ises to Be Entirely - Successful. For the dramatic epicurean there could not be found a more desirable treat than the performance offered by Sarah Cowell Le Moyne in the new historical play, “The First Duchess of Marlborough,” which is at present the attraction of the Columbia Theater. It will continue to win favor throughout all of next week, the final performance being announced for Satur- day night, November 16. Mrs. Le Moyne is without a doubt one of the most intel- lectual actresses who graces the Amer- ican stage and her delightful interpreta- tion of the title role in Charles Henry Meltzer's play has firmly established her in favor here. She has come surrounded by a company of players well fitted for the presentation of the work entrusted to them and the staging of the play calls |’ for no less commendation than has been accorded to the cast. ‘The First Duchess of Marlborough” is a performance out of a hundred and one that should not be missed. William Collier in his latest suc- cess, “On the Quiet,”” follows. (S S Another strong success of the week is ““The Belle of New York” at the Tivoll, given by the clever youngsters of the Pollard Juvenile Opera Company. The children are the brightest young folks that have ever been seen or heard here, singing, acting and dancing with all the aplomb of the best seasoned stagers. They have succeeded, from the tiny Daphne Pollard to Alice Pollard, the stately, who is nearing the sere and yellow leaf of 14 , in winning the hearts of all who {mve seen them. Alice is the belle, and she is a belle. Madge -Woodson is an- other of the little wonders and she takes excellent care of the eomedy interests. But every part is well sustained, the cos- tuming is rich and picturesque, the stag- ing very sufficient and the orchestral ar- rangements in Alf R. Moulton’s able hands are amply satisfactory. There will be a Sunday matinee to satisfy the large demand for seats. “A Galety Girl” fol- lows. e bl Last night the Royal Itallan Band re- ceived a perfect ovation at the Metropol- itan Hall. A large house greeted the talented artists that have so rapidly won their way to the hearts of all lovers of music and they themselves eclipsed all their previous efforts. Every number on the programme was encored and the au- dlence was roused to a pitch of enthusi- asm that is not often seen.

Van Dyck was one of the great favorites of last year’s grand opera season, his in- terpretation of the name roles of “‘Lohen- grin,” “Tannbauser” and “Loki” standing out even from the splendid conceptions by which_he was surrounded. Van Dyck is one of the foremost Wagnerian singers and is equally great as an actor. He was {dentified with some of the first pro- ductions of the works of the great music- dramatist in Paris when the famous ad- verse demonstrations were made, and has nce been almost solely concerned with vagnerian opera. Mr. Van Dyck is in excellent health and will make his first appearance on Monday evening next as Lohengrin. Next week begins the event of events of the' year, the Grau grand opera season.

The new g man is a distinct success and the SWINDLED HIM OUT OF PROPERTY Mrs. Sarah Cowell Le Poolroom Owner Alleges Attorney Was Given Money to Purchase Partnership for Him, but That by Tricks He Secured Same for Himself With the Aid of His Sister 2 CHARGING SYLVA WITH FRAUD. OSEPH HARVEY, the poolroom operator and gambler, filed suit yesterday in the Superior Court of Marin County against Adolph Sylva, the political boss of Sausalito, in’ which charges of fraud are made against the man who came into notoriety through the Fair will case. alleges that he gave Sylva $4000 to purchase for him a half interest in the Sausalito Electric LigI;t Works, and that Sylva, by cunning and trick, secured the property in the name of a partner named Frost and then induced Frost to transfer the same to Florence Sylva, his sister. Attorney James W. Cochrane of San Rafael represents Harvey in the suit. Harv, PAEmL s HERE is war in the camp of the poolsellers of the pretty little town of Sausalito. No longer do Joseph Harvey and Adolph Sylva quaff the gentle cocktail or the | brew of Gambrinus together, for the for- the “double cross” and in the words of a long complaint filed by Attorney James W. Cochrane in the County Clerk’s office of Marin County last Sylva of having cheated him out of a half-interest' in the electric light works of Sausalito and of having conveyed the same to Florence Sylva, his sisler and agent. Harvey and Sylva are well known in shorting circles in California. Harvey for years was a familiar figure at the race- tracks and other places where men tempt fortune and ‘‘Harvey's wheel of fortune” has caused many to regret having “gone up against his game.” Sylva for some time was the ‘‘boss” of Sausalito, and when the gamblers were driven out of San Francisco he shocked the residents of the little town across the bay by using his influence to allow pgol- rooms to run wide open in the respectable suburban place. Sylva also came into notoriety in the Falr case in bolstering up the claims of Mrs. Nettle Craven that she was the widow of the dead millionaire, and with other witnesses was indicted for perjury. Sylva and Harvey became close friends when the last named ran his pooirooms in Sausalito and it was alleged that Sylva had an interest in the gambling places. Harvey Accuses Adolph Sylva. ‘According to the complaint of Harvey, filed yesterday evening, Sylva came to him in April last and requested that he, Harvey, loan the sum of $4000 to Thomas G. Frost, one of the proprietors of the Sausalito Electric Light Works. Frost had established the light works in July, 1896, his partner being Thomas E. Scully. In April last Frost and Scully decided to dissolve partnership and it was agreed that Frost should buy out his partner’s interest, which was valued at $4000. Frost hired Sylva to act as his attorney and agent in the matter and it was in this capacity that Sylva approached Har- vey and tried to make a “‘touch” for $4000. Harvey, however, refused to make the loan to Sylva on Frost’s behalf, but agreed to purchase the half-interest in PREPARE. PLANS FOR MEMORIAL Executive Committee- men Discuss McKin- ley Monument.

JURY TRYING CORONADO UNABLE TO AGREE Fails to Fix the Guilt or Innocence of Alleged Murderer of Narona. AN JOSE, Nov. 6.—Nolberto Corona- do, who is charged with the murder of Frank Narona, will have another chance for his freedom. After having been out for twenty-four hours the jury in his case came into court this afternoon and announced that it was unable to agree upon a_verdict. Judge Lorigan then dis- charged it. The case will be called next | Friday, when a second trial will be set. It is said_that the jury was about even- ly divided as to Coronado’s innocence. The ,crime occurred at Almaden on July 2, when Narona was ambushed on a lonely mountain trail. He was shot and_then robbed of $80. The evidence against Coronado was circumstantial. i e Anthony Eickhoff.

The nllaw trio of aerial sensationalists give a daring and wonderful exhibition; Bur- ton's acrobatic comedy dogs and high- leaping greyhounds are undoubtedly the most intelligent canines before the public, and the bag-punching act of Mr. and Mrs. Locko is much out of the ordinary.

Frost for the sum of $3500 25. | Harvey alleges that Sylva had the half | interest transferred to Thomas G. Frost | and used his influence with the latter to induce him to then transfer the property to Florence Sylva, his sister. Frost, rely- ing on Sylva, and having confidericé in him, says the complaint, did as requested, and the half interest in the electric light works, purchased with Harvey's money, was thus transferred from Scully to Frost | and then on to Sylva's sister. Alleges Fraudulent Conveyance. Harvey alleges that no consideration passed for the conveyance from Frost to Florence Sylva, and that the latter, who resides with her brother, simply acted as his agent in furtherance of his scheme to cheat and defraud Harvey. Sylva is then accused of bolstering up his plans by inducing Frost to_execute articles of co-partnership with Florence Sylva, which articles recite that Frost and the woman are each the owners of an undivided one-half of all the property formerly owned by the firm of Frost & Scully, and that Frost and Florence Sylva had each contributed to the new co-part- nership as their contribution to the part- nership assets the undivided one-half in- terest each owned in the Sausalito Elec- tric Light Works. Harvey’s Eyes Are Opened. When Harvey finally tried to claim the property which he had instructed Sylva to purchase for him he ran up against a snag. He was confronted by Florenca Sylva, who informed him that she was the owner of half the Sausalito Electric Light Works and that the other half be- longed to Frost. Harvey admitted that Frost rightly was the owq’e’r of half the property but claimed the other half. Flor- ence Sylva looked on him with scorn and AGTORS PERISH INTHE FLAMES Lives Are Lost in a Dis- astrous Blaze in ‘Wisconsin. HURLEY, Wis,, Nov. 6.—The Klondike Theater, - owned by Edward Le Clair, caught fire early to-day while most of the inmates were in bed and the wooden structure was soon a mass of fire. Nine men and one woman are missing and there may be others who have lost theft lives in the fire. The dead are: C. W. CLEVELAND, attorney, Hurley. TOM RYAN, comedian, Ironwood, Mich. F. L.

The Klondike Theater building was a structure 1% feet long, three storles high and 50 feet wide, and valued at $10,000. It was occupied by twenty-five people, con- sisting of the Le Clair family and a stock company, which gave a vaudeville enter- tainment six nights a week. On the first floor was the auditorium, barroom, gam- bling rooms, dressing rooms, kitchen, din- ing rooms, stage and proprietor's bed- room. On the second floor were the boxes and a number of rooms. The third floor was partitioned into sleeping apartments. The fire is thought to have been caused by the explosion of an_oil stove in the proprietor’s bedroom. When the alarm was sounded the flames had cut off exit by the stairway. The only remaining exit was through the side and front windows. side windows, dropped to the adjoining buildings and reached the ground with slight injuries. . s Laura Russell, of the musical team of Meyer and Russell, was thrown from the third story by her partner, D.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6.—Maurice Grau, whose Metropolitan Grand Opera Com- pany will open in Hazard’s Pavilion on Friday eve for three performances, has arrived here. The members of his company are expected to-morrow, some from New Orleans and others from New York. The advance sale for the produe- tion of “Carmen’’ on Friday evening, with Mile.

Frost informed Harvey that as Sylva was his attorney and he had faith in him, all Sylva’s requests had been complied with. ‘When Harvey approached Sylva and asked him many times to return the bal- ance of the $4000 left over after the pur- chase of the half interest in the electric light works Harvey was told that the bal- ance had been used to satisfy a mortgage on the property. Harvey says that when he asked Sylva for his title to the prop- erty he was told that the transaction had not been completed on account of the mortgage. Recently Discovers the “Job.” Harvey says that as Sylva was his at- torney and agent and that he had every confidence in him he accepted Sylva's statements as being true, and only re- cently - discovered that he had Dbeen “jobbed.”” Harvey, in his complaint, asks the Su- perior Court. of Marin County to grant him an injunction to prevent Adolph Syl- va, Florence Sylva, Thomas G. Frost and Lisette Frost, as individuals, and Frost and Florence Sylva, as co-partners, from transferring, assigning. selling or dispos- ing of any part of the half interest in the Sausalito Eleetric Light Works, pur- chased by Sylva with Harvey’'s money and transferred to Florence Sylva in a fraudulent manner. Harvey also asks that a receiver be ap- pointed to:take charge of the lighting wcrks to prevent any division of the prof- its of the business and also asks that he be declared the owner of the half interest in the property deseribed in his complaint. He further prays that the co-partnership between Frost and Florence Sylva be de- clared null and void and that the defend- ants, with the exception of Frost, be pro- hibited from interfering with or handling the property in question. A second complaint was also filed by Harvey to recover the sum of $499 75, which, he claims, is the balance of cash belonging to him out of the $4000 he hand- ed to Sylva to purchase the half interest for Harvey in the electric light works. The second complaint asks for an at- tachment against the property held in the name of Florence Sylva, but which prop- erty is alleged to be owned by Adolph Sylva, her brother.
