London, Nov. 2o-The Manchester
family IS furious over the marriage of
the duke to Miss Zimmerman. None of
the members knew Of the event until
last night.
The aged duchess Of Devonshire the
dukes grandmother is SO indignant
over the affair that she has vowed that
never again will she give the young
man any financial assistance People
who know of his affairs say the duke
has not got a penny today and that his
only means of livelihood is secured
from the sale of garden truck from the
grounds of Tanderagee castle.
It is also stated that the duke did not
even have a new suit of clothes tor his
wedding and was unable to get one.
His friends, while admitting this, are
lost in wonder at his coup and all OF
them seem glad, With the exception oil
q few actresses. who are vowing venge-
ance and threatening all kinds of law
suits, none of which will probably ever
be brought
In the meantime the bridal couple
are away from all the turmoil they
have caused, and are apparently obliv-
ious TO it. They are in Tanderagee cas-
tie, and chaperoned by Miss Eleanora
Evans They have sent no word to
London as TO their plans and it is un-
certain whether the duchess Will sal:
far, a evil, oil nv.
! whether the duke will go also.
Miss Zimmerman had planned TO sail
for America last Wednesday. accom-
panied only by her aunt. She told hei
father this by cable and then suddenly.
changed her mind and decided to sail
Saturday. When that time came Man
chester persuaded her to miss the
boat. Evidently she then consented 10
marry the duke. for she cabled her
father at that time of her deternina-
ton and added that the marriage wouiG
be in name only until his consent was
Iseeurat.
! Meantime nothing had been heard
from NJ. Zimmerman and then came
The ciifssis&-the wedding. Now it is
sas, that another climax may occur at
any day.
TROUBLE IS BRENT NC.
What this means is not announced,
but one feature Of the case is tina, tbs
duchess was Supposed to flave been en-
gagged to a young gentleman nanaed
Jordan, of Cincinnati, who was devot-
eddy attached to her for many years.
1t Is limited that he may have some
thing to do or say in the second climax
that is threatened.
The re arlsable part Of this whole af-
I fair is that the duke and duchess have
acted all thru the matter like spoilt
children. They have rushed into the
marriage impulsively and without a
4 thought or care of or for the conse-
auences. Even the brides aunts are in
| a bad hunlor because promises had
| been made TO them that the young
couple would not attempt to lie to-
lEgether until Mr.. Zimmerman had con-
lEsented to- the marriage.
After the marriage young Manchester
said boldly that he married Miss Zim-
norman for love and not for money;
that he had not asked a portion and
would not accept one We're 1t offered
and that he would have made Miss
Zimmerman his duchess If she were as
poor as Cophetua,s maid.
But the new duchess is not dower.ess
even If the duke is the poorest man Of
his rank in the peerage. On their arriv.
al at Tanderagee he presented to his
i wife that superb manor. The OH cas-
tie in which his ancestors have lived fol
generations is surrounded by 1900
acres. 1T possesses fine park and is
the only one of the dueal seats of this
family that has been maintained il
good order.
The duke and the duchess will sal
for America on Saturday. Upon theii
return they Will reside permanently il
4 Ireland.
