CARRIAGE TO STATION.

NEW YORK. Feb. 23-Sylvia
Green. only daughter OF Mrs. Hetty
Green. the wealthiest women IN the
world. was married at Morristown, n.
j., at noon today TO Matthew Aston
Wilks, grandson Of the late John
Jacob Aston.
The bride Is just past 80 years Of
age and will inherit half OF her
mothers estate Of s60.000.000. The
bridegroom Is about B5.
Strange and ludlcrous scenes pre-
ceded the ceremony because Of Mrs.
Green's efforts to have II performed
with comparative secrecy. When the
bridal party started from Mrs.
Green's home at 1909 Bloomfield-ave.,
Hoboken, In a one-horse cab 10 board
the special train which awaited them
al the Lackawanna depot, they were
followed by a motley procession OF de-
livery wagons, milk wagons and veh-
icles of every description, which were
filled with curious persons and news
paper men.
The clatter OF the horses on the as
phalt pavement was heard by the 400
students In the Stevens institute at
Fifth and Hudsonsts. They thought
runaway was passing and they in
stantly left their studies and swarm
ed into the street. The cab passed
them, but they held up the rest OF
the procession.
Let US pass" shouted those In
the wagons.
"Hetty Green's daughter Is in the
cab ahead and she's going TO be mar
RED"
"Rah. rah! rah. for the marriage
yelled the students. Those who could
then climbed onto the wagons and
the chase was renewed. Scores OF
them did a Marathon to the cab over
taking IT and peering joyously at the
embarrassed occupants inside. while
they breathlessly wished the bride
elect all the happiness In the world.
Persons on the street seeing the
wagons held up and the chase after
the cab thought a robbery had been
committed and a cry OF stop thief"
was raised This added to the crowd
and likewise 10 the confusion.
But the cab driver urged his horse
so that the animal went along as II
had never raced before. The party
reached the Lackawanna depot about
so yards ahead OF the pursuing vehi-
cles. That gave Mrs. Green, her
daughter and Mr.. Wilks time TO reach
the private car Avondale before the
crowd was able to overtake them.
Once inside the car they pulled down
the curtains and windows and moth
ing more was seen OF them. The car
left for Morristown attached to the
regular Morristown express. which de-
parted from Hoboken at 9:21 o'clock
