WEDDED a FRENCH OFFICIAL.Consul-General Bruwaert had to Obtain Permission to Wed Miss King of Chicago,
Chicago, May 17,- The marriage of Miss Susan A. King, daughter of Mrs. J. McGregor Adams, to Francois Edmund Bruwaert, Consul-General of France and officer of the Legion of Honor, occurred this evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. J, McGregor Adams, 360 Lasalle avenue.

This order was issued immediately after the marriage of M. Patenotre, French Ambassador at Washington, and Miss Elverson of Philadelphia. It was necessary for Consul-General Bruwaert to obtain permission of the Government.
