Ex-Gov. and Mrs. Brown, of Rhode Island, had alveady arrived, Cyrus W. McCormack, of Chicago, reached Provi- dence early in the evening, and then it became known that Ex-Speaker Reed also arrived last night and was driven trom Providence to Warwick Neck. He created nome changes in the plans of the Aldriches by preferring a room in the coach-house to one in the hous where the presenta were, and he cordingly slept In the yard. Many of the quests, however, were obliged to do this because the Aldrich estate is mude of several detached buildings, Including the two moderate-sized houses where the Senator and his eldest son live. There |s no house on the place at all approaching the size of the Aldrich Providence home. The water tower and the tea house are the only butldings on the estate that will stand when the Bem house he proposes bullding 1s com- plete. Sp! Decoration: The tea house, where the ceremony was performed, surpassed in decora- tion the efforts of most New York florists, Stone was given carte blanche, and he used It to wonderful advantage. When the guests began to fill the tea house before 11 o'clock the picture was one of memorable beauty, The Hungarian band stationed over the stairway in the ball room began playing and the wedding party began to come down from the house to join the members of the family, The bride 1s- Sued from the house leaning on the arm of her father, and drove to the tea house in the carriage with her mother and father. The tea house is one hun- dred yards from the main house, across a sloping lawn thick with trees, cut by a broad drive, which runs for some dls- tance past a stone retaining wall close to the sea The toa house literally overhangs the Sound. At its door the carriages deposited their burdens, and, passing through the reception rooms and up the stairway, the party took thelr places. The ushers led the way across the ballroom floor from the stairway under the musicians’ gallery. They were Messrs. Stuart Morgan Aldrich, Willam ‘Tru- man Aldrich and Richard Steele Aldrich, brothers of the bride, and Mr. Lefferts M. Dashiell. Following them came the maid of honor, Miss Lucy Aldrich, eldest daughter of Senator and Mrs. Al- drich. She wore a gown of pale blue allk, bodice and skirt trimmed with embroidered chiffon Ince and tnsertton. Her hat was a huge Gainsborough, load- ed with pale blue plums. She carried en Egyptian basket of bon vardia. Sater as Flower Girl. ‘The little flower girl, Miss Lucy Ald- rich, walked just before the. bride. She wore a little white muslin gqwn and carried a huge armful of delicate pink Golden Gate roses. The bride followed upon the arm of her father. She made a very beautifiil bride in her gown of white duchesse satin, the long folds sweeping the ground before, and cut with a long wide train. The gown STREET RAILWAY MEN IN SESSION.

Holmes, President of the Metropolitan Stret Railway Com- pany, of Kansas City, Mo., and Ran- Golph Guggenhelmer made a speech of welcome in which he sald; “A great transformation was wrought by the laying down of horse-car lines in various avenues and streets until at last the usefulness of the horse was threatened by the adoption of the cable on Broadway and Lexington avenue. At that time New York City seemed to be contented with antiquated methods, because, even In the neighboring city of Brooklyn, the overhead trolley was doing a rushing and killing business. We yield the palm of superiority even to Philadelphia in the matter of spced and the number of slain pedestrians.” The welcome speech at the Account- ants’ Convention wan delivered by Comptroller Coler. i There were about 500 delegates pre- sent at the opening: bfut at the re- giatration office, down stairs, registra- tion was going on briskly, and the attendance wil eventually be much larger. ‘The Street Raflway Exhibition, held in the Garden In connection w:th the convention, was well attended, A paper on “Street Ra.lways, pared by Robert McCullough, w. by the secretary.
