T.V THE CLOISTERS OF WESTMINSTER Abbet, London, Feb. 28.."Lucky Js the bride the sun shines on." Beneath the shrino of Edward the Confessor the register was signed to-day and the first congratulations were showered upon the royal bride. A brilliant ray of sunshine fell across the ancient table on which the register lay.a table reputedly that once had a place on Westminster's high altar.and lit up the faces of the bride and bride¬ groom as they exchanged their first kiss as man and wife. As I was busy about the Abbey at an early hour, my first impressions re¬ solved themselves into a blaze of color. Their Mijestles' bodyguard, gentle¬ men at arms, yeomen of the guard and stewards In court dress and every variety of military uniform were slightly relieved by the black and white of the fortunate King's scholars of Westminster School, who filled in the background of the picture. A dif¬ ferent touch came with the arrival of the bridesmaids, a touch of dainty sil¬ ver-white shining out against t/|- dark background of the Abbey's great west doors. Very stately was the entrance of the Queen, looking more radiant than ever before. Most touching was that of the Queen Mother, "your affectionate Gran¬ nie," as she signed herself on the card accompanying her wedding prenent to tho Princess Mary. She was tenderly waved on by her pair of Princes. Prince Henry and Prince George, the latter a real sailor. The Duke of York, In the uniform of the Royal Air Force, and tho last Abbey bride, Canada's darlinjr, Lady Patricia Ramsey, stood out in the pro¬ cession. The Bride Arrive*. It was the first boll of St. Margaret's that announced tho approach of the bride and her royal father. The words of command to the guard of honor and tho strains of the national anthem came in from the sunshine outside, and the fairest vision of the day burst upon all who were happy enough to be present The bride herself had arrived. Her bridesmaids curtsied and took up their positions. After a brief welcome from the Dean of Westminster to the royal visitor a signal was given and the procession moved forward. The Dean and the chapter were resplendent In the crimson of Edward's coronation. Then immediately after the Dean his Majesty the King and his fair daughter took their places and the procession moved forward to the strains of the first hymn. Princess Mary's own selec¬ tion, "Lead Us, Heavenly Father." Already the bridegroom, followed by his best man, had been shown to his place Just wjthfh the rail. He aroused the deepest Interest, not untlnged with sympathy for the ordeal which lay be¬ fore him. Now ho took his stand be¬ side his Princess facing the Dean of Westminster, the Archbishop of Canter¬ bury. the Precentor, the cross of West¬ minster and the metropolitan cross of Canterbury, and the Archbishop began the exhortation. A Srrlonn Connie. The seriousness of the bride and and bridegroom at this portion of tho service was entirely In keeping with the Archbishop's solemn charge. The best mnn faithfully discharged his of¬ fice, and "Henry George Charles" took "Victoria Alexandra Alice Mary" to be his wedded wife. so often the rase. the bride. If anything. «»cemed a little more self-possessed than the bride¬ groom In the matter of responses. The second part of the service began with the singing of Psalm LXVJI., when the bride and bridegroom, followed by only two of the bridesmaids, moved to the step* of the altar. The Archbishop of York took up his share of the ser¬ vice. and the Dean blessed the happy couple, who stood to listen to the mov¬ ing words of the Archbishop of Canter¬ bury. Never, surely, did bride arid bride¬ groom show more clearly the lesson of tho serious years through which ati have piuised. and to which the Primate alluded than did Prlnco«« Mary and Viscount I»a*cellcs as they stood alone before the high altar ul which our Kings and Queens arc crowned. It could scarcely be realized that the conditions ever had been parslleled. that Princess Mary herself had been through Just the same training thou- sand# of her sisters gladly faced, and that in the shrine where sre bound up all the traditions of English speaking peoples she was marrying the man of her heart, who had been among the first to face the peril that menaced those traditions. Then, slowly, the bride and bride- groom turned to face- the vast as«em- blnge and stepped forward toward the rail, he holding Mary's left hand high in his right. As they stepped down from the sanctuary througli the open ranks of bridesmaids both smiled. The bridal march from Oounod'n "Romeo et Juliette" timed them to the door, and as the King and Queen began their march the organ burst Into the familiar strains of Mendelsohn, and the great ceremony was over.

KING TRIPS ON CARPET AT CHANCEL RAILING Bride Swayed and Seemed Nervous as Ceremony Began. I^ovdon, Feb. 28 (Associated Tress). .Just before the bride and King reached the chanccl railing in the Abbej tlie Duke of York noticed that the ear- pot leading from the steps to the high altar rail was wrinkled. He rose from his pieat beside Queen Mary. stoopeS and straightened the carpet and resumed his seat. But apparently he had not smoothed all the wrinktes, for when the King bearing the bride on his arm reached the top stop a moment later he tripped, but quickly regained his polso by bracing his arm against the railing. The bride swayed perceptibly and seemed quite nervous as the ceremony, which scarcely exceeded ten minutes, 'be¬ gan. In the subdued light of the altar candles, which mingled with th© sun's rays filtering through the Abbey's multi¬ colored windows, her face was palo as Dean Ryle moved forward to the en¬ trance of the sacrarlum and began the marriage service.

BARRING ARMY LIMITS Made it Necessary for France to Retain 18 Months' Service. By LAURENCE HILLS. Special Cable to Thi New York Ilnut.D. Copyright, 19tt. by The Nbw Yobk Hbbald. New York Herald Bureau.) Paris, Feb. 28. f "The failure of England and America to ratify the tripartite agreement, there¬ by encouraging Germany not to carr> out the stipulations of the Treaty of Versailles, which was intended to limit her forces, makes it absolutely necessary for Franco to maintain eighteen months conscription service at least for the present," Deputy Jean Fabry told the Chamber of Deputies to-day In opening the debate of French military reorgani¬ zation. There has been an Impression lately that the Government might reduce its demands for a large army once the Anglo-French pact had been signed, but the advocates of the bill declare that until It is known that Germany has abandoned her idea* of revenge either against France or Poland It will be vir¬ tually Impossible to come down to the half million men whlc(h would be af¬ forded by a conscription period or a single year. AnKlo-Frrnch P*«t Expected. The Foreign Office professes not ti> know how far the Anglo-French pact has developed, but expeota an early signature In satisfactory form. Cocnte de Saint Aulalro, French Ambassador to Great Britain. Is still pressing Lord Cur- zon. Secretary of State for Foreign Affair?, to include attacks on Germany s eastern neighbors as being equally dangerous to France's Interests and to make the duration of the pact equal to that of the Ilhlne occupation, subject to renewal for definite periods. The New York Herald correspondent was assured to-day, however, that neither of these proposals has yet been accepted by the '^Deputy Fabry, as the reported general for the Government's bill which will re- duce France's army to approximately 675,000 men, aroused only occasional in¬ terest by repeating the arguments that have prevailed for the last two years. Compromise Memurt Hkfly. In fact continual expressions ot^ dis- sent came from the Left as M. I- abry developed his arguments, and although a month ago the Government seemed certain of a fairly large vote for its army bill it is now evident that the Boncour bill providing for less than a year's military service and the bill pro¬ posed by Gen. dc Maud'huy demanding a reorganization of the wholo army along more economic lines by cutting down the Rhine forces already have made progress which is likely to force the Government to compromise. M. Fabry insisted that Germany not only has great chemical, metallurgical and aviation reserves capable of being used in a war of revenge but that her population is greater than that of France and that she has an army of 500,000 men concealed In skeleton for¬ mations In the Rcictiswehr and police organizations, plus 7.000.000 men trained in the use of arms. All these things, he said, made it essential for France not to relinquish the Rhine guard. "Even the United States, who had no frontiers to defend, did not understand the necessity for conscription until their frontier became that extending from Nietiport to Belfort," said M. Fabry in comparing the American idea of an ex¬ peditionary force with the need for a national army to protect France's land frontiers. VISCOUNT HARCOURT DIED OF 'MISADVENTURE' Accelerated by Bromide, but Coroner Scorns Suicide. London, Feb. 28 (Associated Press)..

HMnJTNG REFUTAL TUaSTETT STAND HALTS- BONUS RAID Continued from First Page. the Ways and Means members to pre- sent some sort of a measure regardless of the substantial value of it to tlie ex- service men who ore seeking gratuities. Members who have given their pledges to the bonus propagandists continue to urgo on Mr. Fordney and his associates the necessity of preventing reprisals threatened by the raiders. A number of Senators and Representa¬ tives who hoped the President would prove susceptible to the tremendous pressure brought to bear by the Ameri¬ can l«egion and other advocates of the raid expressed great disappointment when they learned that he will propose no further suggestions regarding the financing of it to supplement those con¬ tained in his letter to Chairman Ford¬ ney. \ The increasing number of Senators and Kepresentatives who wer© originally opposed to the bonrua scheme for eco¬ nomic as well as moral reasons and those who have changed their minds re¬ garding it were encouraged to venture the prediction to-night that no bill will be passed by the present session of Con¬ gress and that the harassed leaders of both parties will be compelled to advo¬ cate the pigeonholing of all bonus meas¬ ures for the present session. The construction placed on the letter of the President to Mr. Fordney by bofci supporters and opponents of the bonus scheme was that he would veto arty bill tiiat did not propose a sales tax as the method for financing the $5,000,000,000 enterprise. Swttohlnsr Senate. Since the people of the country have expressed their opposition in no un¬ mistakable terms and astounding vol¬ ume there has been a pronounced change of Senatorial sentiment regarding tho bonus. The New York Herat.d the other day printed a list of twenty-four Senators who had notified ex-service men among their constituents that thej had decided to vote against the raid. Several of these Senators, Including Senators Glass of Virginia,, Shields of Tennessee, Williams of Mississippi and Dial of South Carolina. Democrats, and Nelson of Minnesota, Borah of Idaho. Wadsworth of New York and 'Pepper of Pennsylvania, Republicans, rebuked con¬ stituents who threatened them with po¬ litical reprisals if they did not vote for the bonus. The action of these Senators has en¬ couraged others, who are ready to'vot^ against the imposition of further bond obligations and taxes on the people of tho country in tho present condition of tho national finances and agricultural and industrial elements. The announcement that the President has not revised the opinion expressed in his letter to Mr. Fordney makes it quite certain that more than a dozen Senator* who have declared that they would he guided by his attitude will oppose any move to override a v«*to. This Is the situation that confronts Mr. Fordney and his Republican asso¬ ciates on the Ways and Means Commit¬ tee who were compelled to-night, to con¬ fess their Inability to propose an ao. ceptabln plan for financing the raid. They will go at It again to-morrow morning with rather less spirit and con¬ fidence that they have displayed up ti date despite Mr. Fordney's vague but confident prediction that a financial method would be devised and a bill put through the lower house. Tho growth of sentiment In favor of postponement was also noted to-day COURT CLERKS ACTION FOR DIVORCE SHIFTED O'Neills Still Living Together Despite Suits.

MAN, <11. KILI.RD nv TRUCK. George Rrodesser, 81. of 10 MeCand- less plaee. Linden. N.

A train wa« passing at the time and Hrodessor did not see the truck until it was upon him. Wachshury was ques¬ tioned by th* police, but im not h»ld, among members who have been depend¬ ing on Mr. Fordney to make good his frequent promises. His failure to do so has undoubtedly cost him a lot of pres¬ tige. As one after another of the projects lie proposed has been rejected the bonus advocates have come to question his political wisdom and business prescience. During the last three or four days some of Mr. Fordney's Republican asso¬ ciates on the Ways and Means Commit¬ tee have taken exception to his views and two or three distinct groups have grown up among the Republican members of the committee. The most important of these, numerically, is that which con¬ tinues to stand with Mr. Fordney in favor of recommending a bonus bill without providing the machinery for raising the money. Group (or Sale* Tax. A second group continues to assert that the only acceptable method for doing so would be to adopt the suggestion of the President that a sales tax feature be Included in it. Up to this afternoon the alternative proposed by the President in the shape of postponement had only one or two supporters. ' It developed at the sessions of the Republican members of the committee this afternoon that four of the members came out in open advocacy of a plan that one of them described as being "honest and free from bunk." This was to have the Republican members of the committee recommend postponement of bonus legislation as suggested by the President with the statement that oppo¬ sition to the sales t«x scheme was too pronounced to overcome, Mr. Fordney and other ardent sup¬ porters of the bonus who fear the con¬ sequences of such a procedure vigor¬ ously opposed this plan. One of the members of the committee said to-night, however, that Mr. Fordney had been compelled to admit in committee meet¬ ings his Inability to proposo a feasible financial solution of the problem that would be acceptable to the President and the people of the country.

After his conference with the Presi¬ dent. Commander McNider went to the Capitol and talked with chairman Ford- ney and Senator MoCumbcr. In a statement Issued by him Just before he left Washington for St Louis the com¬ mander said Senator McCumber and Mr. Fordney had informed him "that quick nnd favorable action would be takon on the compensation bill," and that "he told them that sentiment throughout the country is overwhelmingly in favor of it." Tn a personal statement to reporters the head of the American Legion said Ms remarkable telegraphic demand that President Harding urge Congress to pass the bonus bill "without further delay," was not mentioned at the White House interview. The President sent word that ho had no statement to make re¬ garding the'vlslt of the commander and other representatives of the American Legion. Among the protests received !n the two houses to-day were many from women who served in various capacities during the world war. Most of the communications of this character not only protested against the bonus legis¬ lation hut expressed displeasure be¬ cause women had been Ignored by the American Legion propagandists urging1 the passage of bonus legislation.

M7TL lUlUklill, UL.J1IT A YEAR, DENIES IT Dr. Harold E. Roy, Mourned as Drowned in Hudson, Xow in Los Angeles. Swarthmorc, Pa., Feb. 28..Dr. Harold E. Roy, a New York dentist, and former Swarthmorc College athlete, who had been mourned as dead by his rela¬ tives and friends for nearly a year, is alive and well in Los Angeles. Since he was reported to have been drowned In a canoe accident in the Hudson la«t March Dr. Roy apparently has been wandering, a victim of amnesia, which robbed him of the power of memory and thought expression. He recently regained his memory in Kan¬ sas City, located hU« wife In Los An¬ geles and hastened there to join her. These facts became known here to¬ day through the receipt of a letter by officers of the Swarthmoro Alumni As¬ sociation from David D. Rowlands of Sheboygan, Wis., president of the class of 1909, with which Dr. Roy was grad¬ uated. Mr. Rowlands enclosed a copy of a letter from Dr. Roy reuuesting htm to strike out of the minutes of the class the resolutions which were sent to Mrs. Roy at the time of her hus¬ band's supposed death. Dr. Roy, a member of the New York Athletic Club, was reported to have been drowned on March 17 last. He was said to have Invited several friends to accompany him on the canoeing trip, but because of the cold weather all declined. That was the last seen of him and it was believed that his small craft had befen run down by an oil tanker. Tho canoo was found badly battered and an extensive search for Dr. Roy's body was conducted. In his letter to Mr. Rowlands, Dr. Roy said he did not recall any accident, but that ho had a recent scar on his right temple. Friends here to-night expressed the belief that he had met with some sort of a mishap on tho river, was picked up by a vessel and that the shock caused him to lose his senses. Dr. Roy's letter to Rowlands, sent from Los Angeles said: "Sit down before I knock you down with the news I am writing you. This is neither ghost nor story writing, but by my own hand: just me.Harold 13. Roy. Swarthmorc." "My thanks to you and my class for your kindness to my wife upon report of my death last March. When she tells mo of finding my canoo smashed up, that is all I know about it." Dr. Roy, who is 33 years old. was a member of the Swarthmore football, basketball and lacrosse teams and for two years was a star on tho varsity track team. He was also graduated from tho College of Dental and Oral Surgery of New York. During the world war he was a Lieutenant in the Dental Corps. The Bankers Life Company, an In¬ surance concern of Des Moines, Iowa, has started an action to impound $10,000 paid to Mrs. Gladys C. Roy last Juno when it was thought that her husband. Dr. Harold Earl Roy, a dentist of 133 West Seventy-second street, had lost his life. Detectives employed by tho in¬ surance company last month found the man suffering from loss of memory brought on by an accident to his head. EUROPEAN RECOVERY WAITS ON AMERICA \ Reparations M.720,000,000 Cash, Double in Goods. By RAYMOND GRAM SWING. , Sprrial Cable to Tub New York IIebai.ii. Copvriflht, 192!, by Thb New York HbUU> Sw York Ilernld Itiireitn, I Berlin. Feb. 28. ( The reconstruction of Europe must be deferred until America is ready to take an active part therein, and the Genoa conference will be merely a milestone on tho way thereto, not the goal itself. Such is the German opinion as formu¬ lated after an analysis of the reports of the conference between Premiers Lloyd George and Tolncare. Their meeting is thought here to have produced divergent views on tho Rus¬ sian question, buj an agreement,' none the less, on the main program for Genoa. It was announced to-day that the Reparations Commission has decided that Germany shall pay provisionally 720,000.000 gold marks annually iti cash and 1,450.000,000 gold marks In kind. Germans foresee that this arrangement Will Involve further recourse to bank¬ note printing to pay German manufac¬ turers for delivering their wares by way of reparations. Even at German domestic prices, which are much lower than the world market prices, this means nearly 30,- 000.000,000 gold marks, declared Oeorge- vltch Tchltcherln, the Soviet Foreign Minister, In Moscow recently, speaking of the Genoa conference and while »hls was said before the Boulogne meeting. It gives a clew as to how the Russian mind Is working. The Soviet Commis¬ sary raised a vigorous protest against tho plan that Russia should be put upon her good behavior for a test period of six months, as a preliminary basts to her participation in a conference on reconstruction. SOCIALIST CONGRESS URGES DISARMAMENT . Favors Reconstruction and a Strike Against War. FsANitronT on thb MAtS". Germany, Fob. 28(Associated Press)..Tho Inter¬ national Socialist Conference passed a resolution in favor of a general strike in opposition to every war. and urging tho cancellation of war debts, general disarmament and the establishment of a "reconstruction institute" by ail Inter¬ ested nations.

Romb, Feb. 38.."All the American Cardinals will be present at the conclave," said I'ope Plus during: Sa farewell audience of Cardinal O'Conoell of Boston this morning. . "There will be no more racing five thousand miles in a vain endeavor to reach Rome in time for a conclave," the Pontiff added. "The United States U too Important to be Ignored as she has been. I shall see to it that what hap¬ pened at the last conclave shall not occur again." The Pope continued: "Oh. what a wonderful country you have! There the church is free, really lee, as It is no¬ where else. There the Government re¬ spects religion. Therefore the Govern¬ ment has the right to all that religion can give. It Is a fair exchange. There la wonderful future in store for America, especially in these trying times when Europe is passing through such an anxious period." Cardinal O'Connell told the Holy Father of the relations between the Catholics and Protestants in America and how both cooperate In the foclal rtnd economic life. The Pontiff seemed deeply moved and said: "I like that.' It is a great advantage. It makes for peace and harmony everywhere. Amer¬ ica is truly wonderful and full of hope and promise. My prayer is that the Catholics of America will continue to be united in the bonds of brotherly affection. Let the lielrarchy stand together for all that is best in human life. Of course there will be human defects and differ¬ ences. but when the spirit la right and the principles true Gdd will take care of the rest. No ono expects perfection' In this world, but what wo wart is good will all around." PARTY STRIFE IN THE DAIL EIREANN More Than $2,000,000 in Hand of American Loan. Dublin", Feb. 28 (Associated Press).. Much heated party strife marked the opening session of the Dall Elrettnn to¬ day. Deputies on both sides accused each other of violating the spirit of the Ard Fheis compromise. Mr. dc Valerft, by stipulating the terms on which he ¦would consent to remain in the Dall has rather strengthened belief In tin possibility of the sccccsslon of himself, and his followers. Numerous divisions were forced, and the proceedings dragrcd to such an ex¬ tent that little business was transacted. The divisions showed majorities as high as ten for the Free Staters. The main line of cleavage concerned the real function of the Dail, Mr. do. Vaiera claiming that the Dall was the supreme authority, while the Griffith party refused to be responsible to the I>ail for their acts in the Provisional Government. Mr. de Vaiera attaclv-'l such Importance to this that he more than onco Indicated that he and his friends would discontinue participation in the proceeding unless Dall suprem¬ acy was recognised. Mr. Collins declared ho was respon¬ sible to the Dail for what he did in the capacity of Dnll Finance Minister. Viit for what he did "In other capacities" he was responsible only to the electa*- ate. Mr. Collins made a detailed flnancla statement to the end of l«eeorrfber, when the balance In hand was £237.000. Of an American loan of nearly J3.500.000 a balance remained of more than J2.000,- odo. Tly> net balancc on February 18, 1022, without counting the assets of the organization, totalled Ci>76,800. Of the money taken by the British Government £220,000 was recovered. . ¦ Mr. de Val:ra denied a* "an Infamous slander" a statement Which he said had been published in the New York Gai-lio Amrtican that he had withdrawn $20."f" from a New York bank. Mr. Collins cor¬ roborated this denial. WOULD EXTRADITE MAN FOR MURDER IN 1871 Georgia Tries to Get Hold of Alabaman, 75. Tuscaloosa.

    T.V THE CLOISTERS OF WESTMINSTERAbbet, London, Feb. 28.."Lucky Jsthe bride the sun shines on." Beneaththe shrino of Edward the Confessorthe register was signed to-day and thefirst congratulations were showeredupon the royal bride. A brilliant rayof sunshine fell across the ancienttable on which the register lay.atable reputedly that once had a placeon Westminster's high altar.and litup the faces of the bride and bride¬groom as they exchanged their firstkiss as man and wife.As I was busy about the Abbey at

    an early hour, my first impressions re¬solved themselves into a blaze of color.Their Mijestles' bodyguard, gentle¬men at arms, yeomen of the guardand stewards In court dress and everyvariety of military uniform wereslightly relieved by the black andwhite of the fortunate King's scholarsof Westminster School, who filled inthe background of the picture. A dif¬ferent touch came with the arrival ofthe bridesmaids, a touch of dainty sil¬ver-white shining out against t/|-dark background of the Abbey's greatwest doors.Very stately was the entrance of the

    Queen, looking more radiant than everbefore. Most touching was that of theQueen Mother, "your affectionate Gran¬nie," as she signed herself on the cardaccompanying her wedding prenent totho Princess Mary. She was tenderlywaved on by her pair of Princes. PrinceHenry and Prince George, the latter areal sailor. The Duke of York, In theuniform of the Royal Air Force, and tholast Abbey bride, Canada's darlinjr, LadyPatricia Ramsey, stood out in the pro¬cession.

    The Bride Arrive*.It was the first boll of St. Margaret's

    that announced tho approach of thebride and her royal father. The wordsof command to the guard of honor andtho strains of the national anthem camein from the sunshine outside, and thefairest vision of the day burst upon allwho were happy enough to be presentThe bride herself had arrived.Her bridesmaids curtsied and took up

    their positions. After a brief welcomefrom the Dean of Westminster to theroyal visitor a signal was given andthe procession moved forward. TheDean and the chapter were resplendentIn the crimson of Edward's coronation.Then immediately after the Dean hisMajesty the King and his fair daughtertook their places and the processionmoved forward to the strains of thefirst hymn. Princess Mary's own selec¬tion, "Lead Us, Heavenly Father."Already the bridegroom, followed by

    his best man, had been shown to hisplace Just wjthfh the rail. He arousedthe deepest Interest, not untlnged withsympathy for the ordeal which lay be¬fore him. Now ho took his stand be¬side his Princess facing the Dean ofWestminster, the Archbishop of Canter¬bury. the Precentor, the cross of West¬minster and the metropolitan cross ofCanterbury, and the Archbishop beganthe exhortation.

    A Srrlonn Connie.The seriousness of the bride and

    and bridegroom at this portion of thoservice was entirely In keeping withthe Archbishop's solemn charge. Thebest mnn faithfully discharged his of¬fice, and "Henry George Charles" took"Victoria Alexandra Alice Mary" to behis wedded wife. A« so often the rase.the bride. If anything. «»cemed a littlemore self-possessed than the bride¬groom In the matter of responses.The second part of the service began

    with the singing of Psalm LXVJI., whenthe bride and bridegroom, followed byonly two of the bridesmaids, moved tothe step* of the altar. The Archbishopof York took up his share of the ser¬vice. and the Dean blessed the happycouple, who stood to listen to the mov¬ing words of the Archbishop of Canter¬bury.

    Never, surely, did bride arid bride¬groom show more clearly the lessonof tho serious years through which atihave piuised. and to which the Primatealluded than did Prlnco«« Mary andViscount I»a*cellcs as they stood alonebefore the high altar ul which ourKings and Queens arc crowned. Itcould scarcely be realized that theconditions ever had been parslleled.that Princess Mary herself had beenthrough Just the same training thou-sand# of her sisters gladly faced, andthat in the shrine where sre bound upall the traditions of English speakingpeoples she was marrying the man ofher heart, who had been among thefirst to face the peril that menacedthose traditions.Then, slowly, the bride and bride-

    groom turned to face- the vast as«em-blnge and stepped forward toward therail, he holding Mary's left hand highin his right. As they stepped downfrom the sanctuary througli the openranks of bridesmaids both smiled. Thebridal march from Oounod'n "Romeo etJuliette" timed them to the door, andas the King and Queen began theirmarch the organ burst Into the familiarstrains of Mendelsohn, and the greatceremony was over.

    BARRING ARMY LIMITS

    Paris, Feb. 28. f"The failure of England and America

    to ratify the tripartite agreement, there¬by encouraging Germany not to carr>out the stipulations of the Treaty ofVersailles, which was intended to limither forces, makes it absolutely necessaryfor Franco to maintain eighteen monthsconscription service at least for thepresent," Deputy Jean Fabry told theChamber of Deputies to-day In openingthe debate of French military reorgani¬zation.

    There has been an Impression latelythat the Government might reduce itsdemands for a large army once theAnglo-French pact had been signed, butthe advocates of the bill declare thatuntil It is known that Germany hasabandoned her idea* of revenge eitheragainst France or Poland It will be vir¬tually Impossible to come down to thehalf million men whlc(h would be af¬forded by a conscription period or asingle year.

    know how far the Anglo-French pacthas developed, but expeota an earlysignature In satisfactory form. Cocntede Saint Aulalro, French Ambassador toGreat Britain. Is still pressing Lord Cur-zon. Secretary of State for ForeignAffair?, to include attacks on Germany seastern neighbors as being equallydangerous to France's Interests and tomake the duration of the pact equal tothat of the Ilhlne occupation, subject torenewal for definite periods. The NewYork Herald correspondent was assuredto-day, however, that neither of theseproposals has yet been accepted by the

    '^Deputy Fabry, as the reported generalfor the Government's bill which will re-duce France's army to approximately675,000 men, aroused only occasional in¬terest by repeating the arguments thathave prevailed for the last two years.

    Compromise Memurt Hkfly.In fact continual expressions ot^ dis-

    sent came from the Left as M. I- abrydeveloped his arguments, and althougha month ago the Government seemedcertain of a fairly large vote for itsarmy bill it is now evident that theBoncour bill providing for less than ayear's military service and the bill pro¬posed by Gen. dc Maud'huy demandinga reorganization of the wholo armyalong more economic lines by cuttingdown the Rhine forces already havemade progress which is likely to forcethe Government to compromise.M. Fabry insisted that Germany not

    only has great chemical, metallurgicaland aviation reserves capable of beingused in a war of revenge but that herpopulation is greater than that ofFrance and that she has an army of500,000 men concealed In skeleton for¬mations In the Rcictiswehr and policeorganizations, plus 7.000.000 men trainedin the use of arms. All these things,he said, made it essential for Francenot to relinquish the Rhine guard."Even the United States, who had no

    frontiers to defend, did not understandthe necessity for conscription until theirfrontier became that extending fromNietiport to Belfort," said M. Fabry incomparing the American idea of an ex¬peditionary force with the need for anational army to protect France's landfrontiers.

    the Ways and Means members to pre-sent some sort of a measure regardlessof the substantial value of it to tlie ex-service men who ore seeking gratuities.Members who have given their pledges

    to the bonus propagandists continue tourgo on Mr. Fordney and his associatesthe necessity of preventing reprisalsthreatened by the raiders.A number of Senators and Representa¬

    tives who hoped the President wouldprove susceptible to the tremendouspressure brought to bear by the Ameri¬can l«egion and other advocates of theraid expressed great disappointmentwhen they learned that he will proposeno further suggestions regarding thefinancing of it to supplement those con¬tained in his letter to Chairman Ford¬ney. \The increasing number of Senators

    and Kepresentatives who wer© originallyopposed to the bonrua scheme for eco¬nomic as well as moral reasons andthose who have changed their minds re¬garding it were encouraged to venturethe prediction to-night that no bill willbe passed by the present session of Con¬gress and that the harassed leaders ofboth parties will be compelled to advo¬cate the pigeonholing of all bonus meas¬ures for the present session.The construction placed on the letter

    of the President to Mr. Fordney by bofcisupporters and opponents of the bonusscheme was that he would veto arty billtiiat did not propose a sales tax as themethod for financing the $5,000,000,000enterprise.

    Swttohlnsr Senate.

    Since the people of the country haveexpressed their opposition in no un¬mistakable terms and astounding vol¬ume there has been a pronounced changeof Senatorial sentiment regarding thobonus. The New York Herat.d theother day printed a list of twenty-fourSenators who had notified ex-servicemen among their constituents that thejhad decided to vote against the raid.Several of these Senators, IncludingSenators Glass of Virginia,, Shields ofTennessee, Williams of Mississippi andDial of South Carolina. Democrats, andNelson of Minnesota, Borah of Idaho.Wadsworth of New York and 'Pepper ofPennsylvania, Republicans, rebuked con¬stituents who threatened them with po¬litical reprisals if they did not vote forthe bonus.The action of these Senators has en¬

    couraged others, who are ready to'vot^against the imposition of further bondobligations and taxes on the people oftho country in tho present condition oftho national finances and agriculturaland industrial elements.The announcement that the President

    has not revised the opinion expressed inhis letter to Mr. Fordney makes it quitecertain that more than a dozen Senator*who have declared that they would heguided by his attitude will oppose anymove to override a v«*to.This Is the situation that confronts

    Mr. Fordney and his Republican asso¬ciates on the Ways and Means Commit¬tee who were compelled to-night, to con¬fess their Inability to propose an ao.ceptabln plan for financing the raid.They will go at It again to-morrowmorning with rather less spirit and con¬fidence that they have displayed up tidate despite Mr. Fordney's vague butconfident prediction that a financialmethod would be devised and a bill putthrough the lower house.Tho growth of sentiment In favor of

    postponement was also noted to-day

    among members who have been depend¬ing on Mr. Fordney to make good hisfrequent promises. His failure to do sohas undoubtedly cost him a lot of pres¬tige. As one after another of the projectslie proposed has been rejected the bonusadvocates have come to question hispolitical wisdom and business prescience.

    During the last three or four dayssome of Mr. Fordney's Republican asso¬ciates on the Ways and Means Commit¬tee have taken exception to his viewsand two or three distinct groups havegrown up among the Republican membersof the committee. The most importantof these, numerically, is that which con¬tinues to stand with Mr. Fordney infavor of recommending a bonus billwithout providing the machinery forraising the money.

    Group (or Sale* Tax.A second group continues to assert that

    the only acceptable method for doing sowould be to adopt the suggestion of thePresident that a sales tax feature beIncluded in it. Up to this afternoon thealternative proposed by the President inthe shape of postponement had only oneor two supporters. '

    It developed at the sessions of theRepublican members of the committeethis afternoon that four of the memberscame out in open advocacy of a planthat one of them described as being"honest and free from bunk." This wasto have the Republican members of thecommittee recommend postponement ofbonus legislation as suggested by thePresident with the statement that oppo¬sition to the sales t«x scheme was toopronounced to overcome,Mr. Fordney and other ardent sup¬

    porters of the bonus who fear the con¬sequences of such a procedure vigor¬ously opposed this plan. One of themembers of the committee said to-night,however, that Mr. Fordney had beencompelled to admit in committee meet¬ings his Inability to proposo a feasiblefinancial solution of the problem thatwould be acceptable to the Presidentand the people of the country. He sug¬gested that action be deferred until to¬morrow in order that the sentiment ofthe House over the postponement ideacould be sounded.

    Mic\lder'« Statement.After his conference with the Presi¬

    dent. Commander McNider went to theCapitol and talked with chairman Ford-ney and Senator MoCumbcr. In astatement Issued by him Just before heleft Washington for St Louis the com¬mander said Senator McCumber and Mr.Fordney had informed him "that quicknnd favorable action would be takon onthe compensation bill," and that "hetold them that sentiment throughout thecountry is overwhelmingly in favor ofit."

    Tn a personal statement to reportersthe head of the American Legion saidMs remarkable telegraphic demand thatPresident Harding urge Congress to passthe bonus bill "without further delay,"was not mentioned at the White Houseinterview. The President sent wordthat ho had no statement to make re¬garding the'vlslt of the commander andother representatives of the AmericanLegion.Among the protests received !n the

    two houses to-day were many fromwomen who served in various capacitiesduring the world war. Most of thecommunications of this character notonly protested against the bonus legis¬lation hut expressed displeasure be¬cause women had been Ignored by theAmerican Legion propagandists urging1the passage of bonus legislation.
