VANDERBILTS NOT INVITED.
The Family of the Brides Father Cut
by Her Mother.


by Her Mother.
Holland in the Philadelphia Press.
NEW YORK, October 31.-The Duke of
Marlborough surely must be somewhat en-
harrassed by the strained relations which
exist between his prospective mother-in-law
and the Vanderbilt family. They have
rade it necessary for the young nobleman
to cultivate certain tact which was al
avs easy for his father to assume, and
which the young man has exercised with
much discretion. Much has appeared in
rrint narrating the preparations for and
the details of the wedding of next week.
but none of the accounts have reported the
feet that it is the determination of those
who have the arrangements of the wedding
in charge that no member of the Vanderbilt
family, excepting Mr.. William K. Wander
bilt, father of the bride, shall be present at
the ceremony.
1t has been suggested that the marriage
of Miss Vanderbilt to the duke would very
likely be followed by reconciliation be-
tw cen Mr.. W. K. Vanderbilt and Mrs. Van
derbilt Yet the preparations for the we'd
ding, as they have been described by one
closely related by marriage to the family,
| would indicate that instead Of reconcilia-
ton Mrs. w. X. Vanderbilt intends to sug-
gest that she is and will remain apart from
all association with Mr. Vanderbilt,s near
kim Mr. Vanderbilt will himself give the
bride away, but he will only meet his
daughter in the church, and when his
function has been performed will depart as
though he had been merely an invited
guest 1t is thought by friends of the fam
ily that the father would not have been
permitted to take such part in the cere-
| mony but for the fact that both the bride
and the bridegroom insisted upon it.
My informant, who is very near the Van
derbilts through marriage, says that no
| n ember of the Vanderbilt family has been
| invited to the wedding. Not of the
sens or daughters of the late William Fl.
Vanderbilt has been hidden, and the sweep
ing slight is regarded as all the more re-
| markable because some of Mrs. w. K. Van
| derbilt's brothers and sisters-in-law were
| careful not to permit themselves to be in
| fuenced in any way by the sad domestic
| troubles which caused the estrangemeHt be-
| tween Mr. w. K. Vanderbilt and his wife.
That the slight is felt keenly need not to
| be said.
