Should that feature of the will be put into effect he must give up many millions for his choice of a wife It lies with them, however, to take the initiative, and last night no intima tion could be got from them as to whether they would carry their oppo- sition further than a declination to recog- nize their new sister-in-ln-law.
 The guests present at the quiet marriage and Mrs. G. Nj. Kirkpatrick, MT. and Mrs Jack Kimble, MT. and Mrs. Leroy w. Bald win, MT. and Mrs. Sells, MT. Bogardus, manager of the Tubular Dispatch company, and Captain w. G. Shackford of the Niagara, Howard Gould's yacht.
 The bride was attired in white satin, trimmed with old point lace, and wore little jewelry After the brief ceremony, supper was served at 915 in the gold room. It had been handshmely deco rated for the occasion with palms and American Beauty roses and lilies of the valley. A huge wedding cake was cut up and placed in boxes of white silk moire. These were presented to the guests by the bride, as a memento of the occasion.
 The whole affair was conducted quietly and exclusively, if not secretly. None of the regular hotel guests knew of the af- fair, and the few employees of the hotel who were in the secret were told to remain quiet.
 After supper MT. and Mrs. Gould at once went on board the Niagara, which had steam up, and soon they were on their way down the bay. They will go to Old Point Comfort for few days, then make tour of the southern cities along the sea-coast. They will remain on board the Niagara most of the time. This handsome yacht had just been refitted and had made her final trip to Bar Harbor, Newport News and return in about ten days.
 It is the intention of the couple to pass about three weeks on their wedding tour, after which they will return to this city.
 For three years the bride had been living in the Holland house, while he had been ill the Manhattan hotel Where they will stop on their return to this city is not known.
 In thus marrying Miss Clemmons Howard Gould finally has set at rest a favorite theme in club and social, if not in business circles: twill he do it?" More than a year ago Mrs. J. w. Dayan, the mother of the actress, formally announced in San Francisco that her daughter was engaged to be married to Howard Gould and had been for some time. It was in deference to his wishes, the mother said, that her daughter had abandoned the career of the stage She said no date had been set for the wedding.
 This announcement was received In New York with indifference, If not utter dlsbe- lief. That provision in the will of Jay Gould was so well known that no one be- lieyed young Gould deliberately would give
The age-herald., 1898-10-15

up one-half of his immense riches Tor the sake of an actress.
 Howard Gould took no notice of the an nouncement made by the mother, nor did he cease his attentions to the daughter. They were together much of the time, and he often took her on a cruise in his yacht, remaining away sometimes for week or two On these occasions MT. and Mrs. c. w. Kirkpatrick accompanied them.
 Tn honor of Miss Clemmons he gave many dinners, at which she always was the een- ter of attraction. On one occasion the pr1- vate dinner took the shape of an amateur theatrical performance. The dresses of the guests were ludicrous and the gifts eA- traordinary. regular cakewalk was the feature of another dinner, while band Of musicians always attended and performed whether the host and guests took part in the entertainment or not.
 Of the many rich presents Howard laV- ished on Miss Clemmons none attracted so much attention as a fan he had made in Paris, according to his own idea of what an Empire fan ought to be. It was of ex- quisitely carved ivory sticks, painted by one Of the most famous artists of the day. Upon the outside sticks there is a deer groove. set with splendid diamonds and turquoises.
 The loop joining the sticks was of gold set with diamonds. The pictures painted on the ivory are copies of Gerome's dancer from "The Sword Dance," Bretons "FisheI Girl" Henner's "Magdalen," Le Soir's "Manon Lescaut," Perraults Innocence, Bisson's Love Captive,' Chaplin's "SoaI Bubbles" and Bouguereau's Love Feels the Thorn" Various are the estimates sci upon the value of the fan, and young Gould never told. It is said to have cost him be- tween $SO,OOO and $100000.
 He first went into yachting in an ambit- ious way early in 1896. He went oyer to England and competed with swift 30-foot cutter there. His success was such that he became fascinated with the life, and ever since has had an expensive yacht at his command; also at the command of Miss Clemmons.
 The relatives of Howard Gould opposed the match, and for this reason the seventh clause of Jay Gouds will is of interest.

 Howard Gould and Viola Katherine Clcm- mons were married last night in the Hol- land house in the presence of a few friends. No other member of the Gould family was present at the ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. Wilton Merle Smith, pastor of the Central Congrega- tional church in Fifty-seventh street.
 The absence of the brothers and sisters of the bridegroom would indicate that he had dared them to put into effect one provision of his fathers will, which decreed that if any of his children married without the consent of the majority of the others, he or she should lose one-half of the inheri- tance.
 All along young Goulds brothers and sis ters have steadily refused their consent to Towards marriage with the actress.

BRADsTREET,s REVIEW

New York, October 14.-Bradst streets to- morrow will say While the advent of cooler weather in most sections of the country has undoubtedly been instrumental in causing some improvement in the tone of distributive trade perceptible at most mar kets this week, the beneficial effect upon general business and particularly upon ag- ricultural products of the reported demand abroad for our staple cereals should not be lost sight of. At most western centers an improvement in the retail and jobbins trade in seasonable dry goods, clothing and shoes is reported, and more seasonable weather at the south is responsible for some relaxation of the absurd quarantine which has done so much to cripple trade in this section.
