Objection to His Sons Marriage.
New York. June 15.--Those who have fol-
lowed the career of Cornelius Vanderbilt
and know the character OF the man huve
been sure for the past week that there was
some good reason for his objection to the
marriage Of his son. Cornelius. Jr.. and
MISS Grace Wilson. daughter OF Richard r.
wilson There have been all sorts Of coll
lectures among the upper ten, but those
In position to be best Informed declare that
the objection Is found In the disparity be-
tween the ages Of the pair.
The prospective bride is just eleven years
older than her husband-to-bc, IL one may
take her own words for It, and those whose
social memories extend MS far back as 1884
Will do So They remember distinctly the
season OF twelve years ago when the bride
Of today went about among her friends
Boosting that she was then a full grown
woman-2l years old. According to that she
Jr., Is little past his twenty second birth
day. His father. therefore, bases his OBJ
lection upon the disparity In the ages OF the
pair.
There Is nothing weak about Cornelius
Vanderbilt, and those who talk Of speedy
forgiveness will be disappointed, no doubt
One thing Is ccrtain-the Vandcrbilts of
Cornelius line will not be at the wedding
on Thursday. Not more than fMy persons

There Is still much doubt as to who the

the story of attempt of a small mob of
Democratic heelers to do him bodily vio-

Wednesday night Mr.. Hanson attended
James E. Watsens meeting at Sexton.
Mr.. Watson, in the midst of his address,
was interrupted and forced to cease speak

uproar on the outside. After the meeting
adjourned and while Mr. Hanson was on

intending violence. Mr.. Hanson be-
ing within a short distance of his
home and noticing the warlike attitude of
his enemies, struck off at a run. He was
followed at equally fast pace by his
pursuers, but gained his house before his
enemies could lay their hands on him.
His house was then bombarded with stones
and considerably damaged. This outrage
will be investigated
