31 TV7T A DDTUH it 4i Protsman Boyer. At high noon Thursday April 7, 1904, Charles Protsman of this city and Miss Jessie Boyer were united in marriage at the home of the bride's parents in Convoy, Ohio.' The happy couple arrived in Plymouth on the 6:08 train Thursday evening and were driven to the home of the groom's, parents, Mr.' and Mrs. George W. Protsman on Sophia street, where a nice wedding supper awaited them. Mr. Protsman is one of Plymouth's best young men and his bride was one of Convoy's best young ladies. She will be welcomed to Plymouth where she and her husband will make their home. The Secret of Russia's friendship. The secret of Russia's apparent friendship for the United States during the civil war, which was expres sed in sending a Jleet to this country, was explained by the czar in an interview with Mr. Wharton Baker in 1879 who, In an article In the Independent, tells the story of the interview. Mr. Barker was, in 1879, the finan cial aent in America of the Russian government, and, with Captain Seraetschkin. directed the building of the cruisers Europe, Asia, Africa and Zabiacaat Cramp's shipyard. Mr. Barker enjoyed intimate and confidential relations with many persons high in official and social rank at St, Peters burg, and on Sunday morning, Aug 17, 1897, took breakfast as the guest of the Grand Duke Constantineat his palace. There, by special invitation, he met the emperor, Alexander II., who, in the course of their interview, told Mr. Barker bis reasons for sending his fleet to this country in 1863, "In the autumn of of 1862," said the emperor, "the governments of France and Great Britain proposed to Russia, in a formal, but not in an official way, the joint recognition by European powers of the independence of the Confederate States of America. My immediate answer was: I will not cooperate in such action; and I "will not acquiesce. On the contrary, I shall accept the recognition of tb independence of the Confederate States by France and Great Britian as a casus belli for Russia. And, in order that the governments of France and Great Britian may understand that this is no idle threat, I will send a Pacific fleet to San Francisco and an Atlantic fleet to New York. Sealed orders to both admirals were given. My fleet arrived at the American ports; there was no recognition of the Indepen dence of the Confederate States by Great Britain and France. The American rebellion was put down, and the great American republic con tinues. All this I aid because of love for my own dear Russia, rather than for love of the American republic. I acted thus because I understood that Russia would have a more serious task to perform if the American republic. with advanced industrial develop ment, were broken up and Great Brit ain should be left in control of most branches of modern industrial devel opment." . Held for Murder. Frank Foltz, of Auburn, who shot and .killed Edward Swigert, has been held for murder. Foltz, at the pre-Hminary-trial, entered a plea of not guilty. He was remanded to jail without bond and will haye a preliminary hearing next week. "Foltz maintains his attitude of indUTercnco and will Lzi Clzzizz ttz cootirj.
