The Two Families. A few minutes before noon Mrs. [Roosevelt, accompanied by the mem 'bers of her immediate family, descend the main staircase and under the escort of several military aides entered the east room by the main doors. She was escorted to a position on the left fide of the platform, which was re I served for the bride'sefamily. 1 Ei.The 1 \i Desig- nate members of th bridegroom family, including his mother and sis ters, already had taken their places on the right side of the platform. In order to keep a way clear for the wed ding party, white satin ropes were stretched from each side of the mam entrance to the east room to post3 located tea feet west of the platform and thence around the platform to points on the east wall. Mrs. Roosevelt. Mrs. Roosevelt graciously acknowl edged the greetings which she received on her entrance. She wore a superb ffown, richly designed, of heavy, cream-colored brocade, on which were figures of bine and brown interlaced with threads of gold. The gown was made in princess style with a long .train of the brocaded material, ihe trimmings were of brown chifton, em ibroidereo" in blue and gold. The yoke 'of the bodice was formed of embroid ered chiffon, as were the trimmings on the elbow sleeves. Exquisitely designed i panels on the skirt were made ot the blue and gold embroidery. She wore diamond ornaments. Two or three minutes after the en trance of Mrs. Roosevelt the bride icroom, Mr. Longworth, accompanied by 'his best man, Thomas Nelson Perkins iof Boston, descended the mam stair Icase, and entering the east room, took Ihis place at the foot of the platform to 'await the arrival of his bride. The Bride Enters. Promptly on the stroke of noon, Mit.s I Roosevelt, escorted by the president, descended by the elevator to the west end of the main corridor. There, await ling them, were the ushers selected by "Mr. Longworth. All of them are long time personal friends and several were the bridegroom's classmates at Har ivard. They were Quincy A. Shaw of Boston, Frederic Winthrop of New York, Francis R. Bangs of Boston, Guy Norman of Boston, B. A. Walhngford, Jr., of Cincinnati, Lars Anderson of "Washington, D. Vieomte Charles de ^Chambrun of the French embassy, and ^Theodore Booseveltushers, ,Q* Jr. Precede by the the president and the dainty bride, resting her hand lightly within his left arm, proceeded to the east room, the orchestra render ing the magnificent march from "Tann ihauser." The Bride Beautiful. Miss Ropsevelt never looked better. classic beauty of her face and rfctfgure was accentuated by her exquisite ^attire and by the surroundings. Her i bridal dress was a magnificent creation of heavy white satin, point lace, chit fon, filmy tulle and silver brocade. The material from which the gown was de veloped was manufactured especially i for Miss Roosevelt and the design was destroyed as soon as the necessary 'amount of the material for the dress was made. The gown had a long court "train of superb silver brocade. Tho bodice was made high, without a collar, was trimmed with rare old point lace, and the elbow sleeves were finished with the same filmy material. lhe leeves just met the long white gloves. A voluminous tulle veil, almost com pletely enveloping the slender, graceful figure of the charming bride, was held itT place by dainty clusters of oiange blossoms. The tiny slippers were fash" lioned from silver brocade and instead '/of buckles, tulle bows were worn with tiny clusters of orange flowers. The only jewel worn by the bride was the superb diamond necklace which ,was the gift of the groom. Over her left arm Miss Roosevelt carried a superb shower bouquet the rarest and dain- ties white orchidf procurable. Th del licate blossoms were arranged in cas cade form, the stems being tied with white chiffon satin ribbon with long I bows. _,, Facing the Clergyman. The ushers, who were in couples, sep arated as they reached the platform, [nd the president passed thru the two i lines and presented his daughter to the -waiting bridegroom, who stepped for ,ward to receive her. Together they (ascended the platform, where Bishop iSatterlee, in the imposing robes of his office, already was standing. It was one of the most auspicious moments in the history of the White House. The guests seemed scarcely to Breathe, so intent were they to catch every syllable of the beautiful service. I In low, yet resonant tones. Bishop Sat rteriee began. At the conclusion of the responses from the bride and bride groom, the venerable bishop inquired in a tone that filled the great room: "Who giveth this woman to be mar jxied to this man?" The president of the United States ascended the platform and, taking his daughter's right hand, placed it in that of the bridegroom. Thus he gave the i bride away to the man of her choice, i and by the ring which an instant later the groom placed on the fourth finger of her left hand, she became Mrs. Nicholas Longworth.

For weeks these tributes of love and affec tion have been pouring into the White House. The bride and the members of her family were almost overwhelmed by the number and character of the presents. It was not that they^ were so valuable, intrinsically, altho in the aggregate they represent a great sum, but it was the spirit which animated the givers which appealed strongly to Miss Roosevelt. Many of tho "presents were accom panied" by oral or written expressions of the deep and sincere regard in which the bride is held by persons of all classes, not only in her own country, but thruout the "world. ,f, Some Gifts Unacceptable. Weeks ago, on behalf of their daugh ter, the president and Mrs. Roosevelt let it be known that certain proffered gifts could not be accepted. It was their desire that the wording, so far as the presents were concerned, would at least be stripped of official charac ter. An intimation was conveyed thru diplomatic channels that it was the desire of the president that no gifts should be made to Miss Roosevelt on behalf of foreign governments, that Eresents of such nature properly could received only from the executives of the governments thru the ambassa dors or ministers accredited to the American government. The only present, therefore, which may be said to come directly from a nation is that from the Cuban republic. It was provided for prior to the re ceipt of the president's delicate inti .mahon and in the peculiar circum stances it could not be declined. Bride's Joy Clouded. During the past week hundreds of remembrances so particularly precious in the eyes of a bride have arrived at the White House for Miss Boosevelt. By far the greater number of them came from personal friends and ac quaintances. Her joy was clouded in a measure by the receipt of presents from people of whom she had never heard, who followed the gifts imme diately with reouests for invitations, to the w,edding. Some of the gifts were costly, but some of them that were so evidently sent with the idea of obtaining an invi tation to the wedding were returned in stantly to the senders. It can be said with perfect confi dence in the accuracy of the statement that while many of the presents re ceived by the bride are very valuable, Some of them being particularly so by reason of the circumstances surround ing them, the value of the gifts has been greatly exaggerated. Many of those who remembered Miss Boosevelt with presents are by no means wealthy, and it is quite certain they could not afford to make such presents as the have been credited with having given. The definite announcement of the president and Mrs. Boosevelt that no list of the bridal gifts would be made public has been approved cordially by friends of the families of both bride and bridegroom, but it has placed a premium on the exaggeration so great Mrs. Charles Sheldon, Harry Roelker, Miss fy deprecated by the president himself.

The Ogicial List. Annoyance to Bride. So remarkable have some of the ac counts of the presents been that their publication has brought to Miss Boose velt any amount of annoyane'e. Her mail for many days has been flooded with letters from men and women in all parts of the country urging her to give to them from her plentiful store of duplicate gifts one thing or another. Some of the stories of suffering and privation they told really were pitiful. Even in the time of her life's greatest happiness Miss Boosevelt's heart was made sorrowful by the tales of hard ship. Of course, she was unable to gratify the application. Threatens the Bride-Elect. In addition to appeals for charity. Miss Boosevelt received as a result or the exaggerated reports of the value of her presents, letters unsigned as a rule, menacing in their tone. No actual threats were made, but the letters con tained sinister intimations of future trouble, perhaps for the country, thru the presentation to the daughter of an American president of gifts so costly as to be merely a display of the wealth of the giver's. Nobody without the circle of rela tives and intimate personal friends has been permitted to view the bridal pres ents.

The display consists princi ially of jewelry and rare bric-a-brac. 'here are necklaces, brooches, rings, bracelets, fans of unique design, clocks, watches, vases, loving cups, punchbowls, pictures, rare laces, ex quisite silks and embroideries from the orient, delicate carvings in ivory and the precious metals, handsome rugs and tapestries, rare silver and china table services, most of them manufactured from special designs, and every other gift, which possibly could make glad the heart of a bride. Among the many beautiful things re ceived are some rare old laces and newels from Mrs. Lee, the grandmother "of the bride. Had the bride's mother lived, these, very likely would have gone to her. In the circumstances they are more precious in the eyes of Mrs. Longworth than soores of the guts in trinsically *of great value. Some of the Gifts. As heretofore indicated, no list of ."presents was made public and no com plete list approximately accurate can be compiled, but among those received by Miss Boosevelt are the following: President Loubet of France, a mag nificent Goblein tapestry, made espec ially for Miss Roosevelt, long and nar row in shape, and portraying scenes renowned in the history of /ranee. This tapestry is made only for the French government, and never is placed on sale. Its value, therefore, is purely conjectural in dollars and cents. It was presented to Miss Roosevelt on be half of President Loubet by Ambassa dor Jusserand. At the same time Am bassador Jusserand on behalf of him self and Mme. Jusserand, presented to Miss Roosevelt an exquisite fan of white ostrich plumes set pn tortoise shell sticks and bearing Miss Roose velt's initials in gold. Emperor of GermanyA bracelet or special design, studded with gems of rare value, one of the finest works of the jeweler's art. It was presented by Ambassador Speck von Sternberg.

The King of SpainPieces of antique jewelry of rare design and value. King Edward VII. of England sent a gift to the bride, but the character of it has not been disclosed. From the Diplomats, While some of the ambassadors and ministers accredited to this capital from foreign countries sent individual pres ents to Miss Roosevelt, the majority of them presented to her offerings of flowers. Mr. Takahira, former minister of Japan, cabled directions that a hand some floral offering be made to the bride in his name. Mr. Grip, minister of Sweden, pre sented an exquisite vase which he pur chased in Paris Baron Moncheur, the Belgian minister, a piece of handsome bric-a-brac Minister Qnesada of Cuba and Mme, Quesada, a set of eight pieces of silverware lined with gold and bear ing the initials of the bride, A.

From "the Tafters." What is known as the Taft Phmwpine party, including those who with Miss Boosevelt made the trip last summer to the orient, joined in a beautiful and costly gift to the bride, it a ^cklace of gold with the alternate links studded with diamonds, bearing a magnificent aqua marine pendant surrounded with diamonds. The aqua marine is a stone of remarkable size and color, costing $1,500 unmounted. A card accompany ing the" gift ifi inscribed: "Witl and best wishes to our^ Alice from bers of the Taft party.

This prob ably was intrinsically the most valuable gift received by Miss Roosevelt. Scenes Outside the White House. Fair as a May morning was the wed ding day of Miss Roosevelt. Soft, balmy sunshine poured down from a cloudless sky and made the day like springtime. Altho the guests within the East room who witnessed the beautiful ceremony did not number beyond the hundreds, thousands gathered about the White House fascinated by the thought that they could be so near the scene on which the eye of the world centered to day. A large curtain of green canvas fes tooned over the outside of the bay win dow of the East room, marked for those on the outside the altar before which the bridal couple were pledging their troth. For this reason the crowds around the-eastern entrance were larg er than olsewhere and packed the side walks running between the treasury de partment and the White House. The crowd which gathered at the south gate to witness lhe arrival of the diplomatic corps were keenly disap pointed to note that they did not ap pear in uniform. Indeed, this has been a subject of discussion for some tirne, the more intimate friends of the presi dent in the corps insisting that it was the courteous thing to do. There is in the corps, however, an ambassador who has always opposed the idea of uni forms except at a diplomatic reception and rather than show to the public a marked division of sentiment the con servative element in the corps yielded. Weather Perfect. So perfect was the weather that many of the guests dismissed their car riages and walked leisurely down to the White House. This made Lafayette park a center of interest between 11 and 12 'clock, and reminded one of an Easter morning., Along the front of the White House there were many promenaders who strolled along in the sunshine, every one expressing their deUght,that Miss Roosevelt's supreme wish for a bright day had been granted. Among the promenaders was the daughter of the Russian ambassador, Miss de Bosen, who was out for her morning walk with a friend. &- Defective It was a typical Washington crowd which gathered about the White House this morning. It. included many who were friends of the president and Mrs. Roosevelt and go6d enough friends to understand the impossibility-of all the friends of the two families being in vited to the wedding. There was no jostling, no disorder and comparatively few policemen were on duty. _... No one was permitted in the White House grounds today except the guests. A few intimate friends and relatives entered by the north door, but the vast majority "of the guests entered by. the eastern door, where they were received by Captain Fitzhugh Lee, U. S. A., and Lieutenant Chauncey Shackford,f TJ. N., aides to the president, both in 'spe cial full dress uniforms. There were large crowds about tne north gates, who were sure that Mr, Longworth would come in that way, but they were disappointed. Indeed few knew of the arrival of the bridegroom as he came early. Long Line of Carriages. $ The ing tne peacock eye ji ^&^ no two -pieced being of precisely the same hue. The service consists of nv dozens-wine glasses, $nger bowls and platesi From the Ohio delegation. The Ohio delegation in congress gave the bride a heavy silver loving cup. It is more than two feet in height and bears festoons of roses in respousse work around the top and bottom. The house committee on foreign af fairs of which Mr. Longworth is a mem ber, also gave the bride a loving cup of silver, handsomely chased and lined withgold. It was inscribed To Alice Lee Koosevelt.'' Fans were a favorite article of pre sentation to the bride and she received a notable and handsome collection of them. Besides the fan of the French ambassador and Mme. Jusserand, the Viscount de Chambrun sent a hand painted fan. and Senator and Mrs. Spooner of Wisconsin presented a jew eled fan of exquisite workmanship. No adequate idea of the gifts of the bride can be given with any degree of accuracy, but the foregoing will con vey some notion of their character. Those made by the members of the im mediate families of the bride and bride groom are held sacred. The gift of Mr. Longworth to his bride was a necklace of selected dia By half past ten o'clock the line of carriages extended from the eastern en trance of the White House past the front of Lafayette square and down Seventh street nearly to the Corcoran art gallery. So excellent were the ar rangements for receiving the guests, however, that all were entered quickly and the carriages were parked in, tne ehpse south of the White House. It was possible for the crowd* in La fayette park to see the guests standing in' the east room, and as soon as they saw them moving toward the corridor they knew that the ceremony was over, and a ripple of excitement spread thru their ranks. Straightway there was a movement to the north gate because of the rumor, which was current thruout the morning, that the bridal couple would leave the White House by this entrance on their way to 'iFriendship," the home of Mr. and Mrs. John R. McLean, where, it is said, they will spend several days be fore leaving Washington. Interesting Incident. Some of the early watchers around the White House this morning were for tunate enough to witness an interest ing incident. About "half past nine o'clock, two men appeared on the^est esplanade leading from, the White House to the executive office and prom enaded up and down in the sunshine,' their hats off, the older holding the younger by his left arm and talking very earnestly. After ten minutes walk, the older entered the office and the younger returned to the other end of the esplanade in double quick time and disappeared thru the France win dow opening_from the corridor on the esplanade. The one was the president and the other was Theodore Boose velt, Jr. Boston's Bells Peal.

PAT CROWE CLEARED OF KIDNAPPING CHARGE Omaha, Feb. 17.-The jury \n the trial of Pat Crowe, charged with robbing Edward A. Cudahy, the- Omaha packer, of $25-,000 in connection with the kid naffjpinfr of vthe latter's sort five years ago,' after fifteen hours' deliberation has brought in a verdict of not guilty. The kidnapping of Eddie Cudahy on Dec. 19. 1900, and his release on the payment by his father of $25,000 ran som, created a sensation ana the search for the kidnappers was stimulated at the time by the offer of a reward of $50,000 by Mr. Cudahy. Arrested in October. It was the belief of the authorities that Crowe and James Callahan were the guilty persons, but no trace of them could be found until about" a year ago, when Callahan was arrested. He was identified by young Cudahy as one of his captors, put released, as it could not be shown that he received any of the money, and because there was at that time no law making kidnapping of a person more than ten years of age a crime. Last October Crowe was arrested in Butte, Mont., and the trial began Feb. 7. There was no evidence positively identifying Crowe as one of the kid napper's. Crowe was recently vindicated in Coun cil Bluffs, with others, on a charge of holding up a streetcar. Taken to Council Bluffs. Council Bluffs, Iowa, Feb. 17.Pat Crowe is now a prisoner in the Potta1 wattamie county .iail here, and will be arraigned today on the charge of street car robbery.

Levi was on trial yesterday for a saloon hold-up committed a month sub sequent to the streetear robbery. CrlEEIJitANS Sto Tfova. an Emperor.

Creelman are involved in the disastrous failure of the Bank of America. The Creel mans w^ere engaged in the wholesale lumber business, ostensibly, and^tho comparative strangers managed, it is said, to float a lot of paper in Chicag banks.

Creelman is Baid to have had a varied career, and according to reports was at one time previous to 1890, interested in Minneapolis.

Vonhagle. J. H. Vonhagle of Winnipeg was a guest at the West today. He has just returned from a tour thru the Canadian northwest, and says that entire country is looking for a great year of business with the opening of spring. "Canadian farmers are rapidly get ting well to do," he said, "and are beyond the point where they have to sefl their crops just as soon as they are harvested. There are immense granaries on the big farms of the north west still filled with last season 'rf crops, mostly wheat, which are being held for better prices. With the sale of this grain, the farmers will have an extra amount of ready cash to spend for general improvements.

CHANCE OF TARIFF WABB0WSL1 SS Report that Germany Will Post pone Action Is Confirmed in Berlin. it 4 Berlin, Feb. 17.The German govern ment's decision to ask the reichstag early next week to give the Unitea States the same tariff rates as the com mercial treaty countries has been wide ly printed in the German press and con firmed at the foreign office. The comment on the government's in tention is generally unfavorable, the agrarian papers in some instances re garding the news as incredible. The independent Tageblatt quotes Count Van Posadowski-Wohner, the vice chan cellor and secretary of interior, as say ing in the reichstag two years ago that the government would not give the United States reciprocal treaty rates without an equivalent return. It is quite understood, however, that the government's act rests upon general political reasons,'being in a line with those special acts of consideration shown by Germany towards the United States during recent years. Tho quostion of commanding a ma 'ority in the reichstag is still in doubt, is certain, however, that the agrarian leaders are preparing themselves for opposition, but the prospects seem fa vorable to the government. 24th Annual Reduced-Price Sale.
