MORE ABOUT NINE. GOULD.
Paris Paper Says Marriage to D
Sagan Has Already Occurred.

PARIS, April 1S-The Cri de Paris.
which processes to chronicle the doings of
the fashionable set of Paris insists in its
issue OF today that the marriage of Nine.
Anna Gould. formerly the wife of Count
Boni de Castellane. and Prince Helie de
Sagan, his cousin. already has taken
place. The paper announced some time
ago that this marriage had been csle-
brated secretly in Germany. Today it
says:
we are now in a position to complete
our information. This marriage was eel
ebrated secretly in little town on our
eastern frontier. When in New York
Nine. Gould informed her family that her
wedding already was an accomplished
fact. and this is why the members of her
family so quickly consented. We would
add that for certain legal reasons which
delicacy prevents us from divul3ing this
marriage can be broken. This possibility
greatly consoles the families which have
been SO crushed by the marriage, but We
hope that they will not by any rude proc
ess trouble the happiness of the young
couple, who during their sojourn in New
York were SO much together
Continuing. the Cri de Paris adds that
Nine. Gould has resolved rrevocably to
break with the past She is selling out
her celebrated wine cellar, merchant of
Bordeaux having already purchased $16-
900 worth Of her stock.
