LONDON, June 10.-Sir William Cor
don-cummiig was married at II o'clock
this morning in the fashionable Holy
Trinity church at Chelsea, to Miss
Florence Garner, daughter of the late
Commodore William Garner, of New
York city. Lord Thurlow gave the
bride away. Rev. Robert Eyton offici-
ated. The marriage was practically q
secret marriage. Only twelve people
were present at the ceremony at Holy
Trinity. The bride looked charmingly
happy and Sir William was proud look
ing, cool and entirely self-possessed.
There was no trace in his personal
appearance OF depression or emotion
resulting from yesterdays verdict in
the court of queens bench. Lady and
Sir William Gordon. Cumming left this
city shortly after the ceremony, for the
bridegroom estate, Althyre near Forres,
in Scotland, where they will spend their
honeymoon.
InI an interview to-day, Sir William
Gordon Cumming said that he had
nothing to add to what he had said in
the witness box. The popular opinion
of the verdict, he added, was shown by
the demonstrations in court. Sir Will
lam refused to say anything in regard
to the comments of the newspapers
upon the case. saying that they were at
perfect liberty to say what they pleased.
When the verdict was pronounced
against him, Sir William again offered
to cancel his engagement to Miss Gar
ner, but that lady, believing in his in
nocence, would not hear OF such thing
and insisted that the marriage should
take place to-day.
It is expected that Sir William and
his wife will visit the United States in
the autumn. Lady Gordon Cumming is
the eldest daughter of the late Commo-
dore William Garner, Of New York, who
was drowned in July, 1875, with his
wife, through the capsizingo OF Mr.. Gar
ner's yacht Mohawk.
A TREMENDOUS SENSATION.
Echoes of the baccarat scandal still
fill the air. Sir Edward Clarke, who SO
ably argued the case on Monday is i'll
and thoroughly exhausted to-day. He
has entirely lost the use OF his voice and
is obliged to retire from IN important
case in which hewas retained for to-day.
The denunciRtion Of the Prince OF Wales
by, y,thenexspael.l llreSs eEnaHial y; his
denuncfdtioh by the Tory Ipfess,1 has
caused tremendous sensation through
out Great Britain and it is freely assert
ed that the revelations made during the
trial of the baccarat suit in court are
Judged to have done more to imperil
the monarchy than any event which
has taken place for many years past in
England.
The flat assertion made by the Daily
Chronicle to the effect that until the
Prince of Wales, on oath, swears as
"his confederatesn did, that he, the
Prince, did not violate the solemn
pledge he gave to Sir William Gordon
Cumming, he, the heir apparent, rests
under an imputation OF dishonor quite
as shameful as that which the jury put
upon Sir William Gordon Cumming,
reflects the general feeling on the sub
iect.
A precise of the court proceedings
was telegraphed each night to the queen
who is now at Balmoral Castle in Scot
land, and Her Majesty is said to have
expressed her displeasure in such strong
terms the Truth, OF this city, asserts that
1t would not be surprised II the court of
queens bench revelation were the cause
OF Lord Coventry's resigning his Office
rs master OF Her Maiesty's buck hounds,
or chief OF tho royal hunt Of Her Majes-
ty's household, for which Office the earl
draws an annual salary OF s., 500. The
queen does not attempt to conceal the
fact that she is angry with every one
connected with the baccarat scandal,
and the effects Of the royal displeasure
may yet be felt in several quarters.
ROYALTY AT THE STAKE.
at Ascot yesterday the Prince Of
Wales was visibly nervous until after
he received the dispatch announcing
the Wilson's victory. So soon as he was
in possession of the result the jury's de-
liberatlons the Prince fairly beamed
upon his friends and relatives, takingno
pains to conceal tho pleasure he felt at
the result OF the verdict.
The Star to-day, under the heading OF
Royalty at the Stake" says that the
Prince Of Wales is the male head OF his
race. The women OF his house are vir-
tuous, setf-restrained and reitant. Tho
English people throughout the world
want the men to be more like the
women Of this royol line, adding: This
is proud country, and the man who
aspires to represent Englishmen must
keep everything about him fresh and
bright and must be exceedingly jealous
OF his reputation and must not be
known as baccarnt banker and as q
specialist in gaming counters"
WAS THE JURY TAMPERED WITH?
Friends Of Sir William now claim that
the jury was packed, and that, SO far
from the defense being surprised by the
questions which a juryman addressed
to the Prince OF Wales, the questions
were expected and had been arranged
in advance, in order to give the Prince
pretext for declaring his belief in the
plaintiffs guilt. A iuryman has Rd-
mitted that the case was settled against
the plaintiff by the evidence OF the
Prince, and especially the answer OF the
latter declaring that he had found 1t i'm
possible to discredit the evidence against
him. 1t is also said that nll the jury
men arc Conservatives in political faith.
A singular circumstance, to which at
tention has been called, is that the most
famous OF English trials before that Just
concluded, involving the question OF
cheating at cards, was little over fifty
years ago, and Mr.. Cumming was de-
