Gertrude Potter, OF Chicago. Creates An
:. $5efr 5is other Sensation. 7.,
CHICAGO, Sept. 2L-On Wednesday it
was announced that the secret mar
riage between F. Lee Rust, son of
wealthy Wisconsin lumberman, and
Miss Gertrude Potter, daughter of O.,
w. Potter, the millionaire vice
president of the Commercial bank and
president of the North Chicago Rolling.
Mill Company, had been annulled by
J Judge Horton, because of the fact that
young Rust was a minor when the mar.
rage was contracted. Judge Horton
has been severely criticised for his
action, mainly because of the secrecy
surrounding the hearing of the case.
Another. sensation is now created
oy the announcement that Miss Potter
has been married quietly at her IA
Tiers residence, to julius Clarke
Daniels, of New York. +:s "a.
An attorney for the :Potters makes
the statement that. this is the second
marriage between Gertrude and Mr..
Daniels. The first, it is said, occurred in
this city in 1859, at,which time Daniels.
secured the license under tile name of
Julius} Clark, giving Gertrude's name
as Gertrude White. The parents Of
Miss Potter declare that the
couple never lived together. Ger
trude afterwards was !, advised
by counsel that the marriage was
invalid, and It WAS under this inn
preston that. she formed the union
with young Rust When the latter
marriage became known to. Mr..
and Mrs. Potter, the fact
Of the former ceremony also
came out Therefore, in order. to-
straighten outline ENHANCEMENT, it was
deemed bestlto have the Rust union an
nulled and q second ceremony performed
between Daniels and his former bride.

glamour that surrounds public life, and
when threatened with retirement to private
life he threw principle to the wind and
