RlEs ANTON sIGRAY.

New York, March s0.--Another inter-
national romance. involving an ancient
title Of nobility and a fortune wrested
from western mines. had its ecstatic
elimination today i'm the welding of
Miss Harriet DAILY daughter Of the late
copper king, Marcus Daily OF Montana.
and Count Anton Sigray OF Hungary.
The ceremony was performed at tho
home of Mrs. Marcus DAILY, in Fifth

tentious nature. considering the wealth
and position of the contracting pair.
The best man was Marcus Polavicini
of Budapest
Bride Keeps Out of Society.
The bride has been out Of society
several years. She is sister OF Mrs
James w. Gerard and Mrs. II. Carroll
Brown and has passed several seasons
| in Newport with Mrs. Gerard. soon
after the death of her father Marcus
DAILY of Montana and New York, Miss
DAILY. with her mother and sisters,
went to her present home.
Count Sigray comes from Sabatka,
in upper Hungary, where he has great
estates, having come here five years
ago In company with Count Michael
Karolyi, one Of his countrymen, and
they were both much entertained in
society.
Count Attends Vanderbilt Wedding.
Count Sigray was also here at the
wedding of Miss Gladys Vanderbilt to
Count Laszio Szechenyi two years ago,
when he was one of the ushers. Dur
ing his first visit here he went to Cali
formal to play polo. he being one Of the
best opponents of that sport in his own
country, and later he went to Canada
to hunt big game.
He brought letters to members Of the
Aston, Mills and Goelet families, by
whom he was frequently entertained.
Count Sigray is a fair dashing young
man and the reporters have found him
approachable and affable. In discussing
his romance" he recently said:
Il met Miss Daily in the Vanderbilt
home and-well, who could fail to fall
in love with her? had travelled all
over your country and / had made up
my mind that / would marry an Amer
lean girl IL could find one to have me.
And as soon as / saw her knew Miss
DAILY was the American girl of Ameri-
can girls for me.
Il met her frequently after the we'd
ding, both here and abroad. And the
more / saw of her the more firm was
my determination to win her.
Sails After American Girl.
But, do you know" resumed the
handsome young Hungarian, a note of
seriousness creeping into his voice,
tits deucedly hard for foreigner, no
matter how worthy his motives or ex-
allied his station to set sail after an
American girl? Immediately the cry
; of fortune-hunting foreigner is noised
1t is tribute to the beauty and brain
: Of the American girl that foreigners
are willing to risk even this danger to
win her. Insthis point alone lies one of
the most infallible proofs that the
American girl is queen of women the
world over"
1t is limited that the best man at to-
} days wedding, Marquis George Pola-
vicini, may have some lingering
: thought Of selecting an American bride
! and this rumor has sent hutter
J through New York social circles. Mar
quis Polavicini appears to be in every
Z way desirable. being descended from
an Italian general of that name who
! fought against the Turks in the early
: eighteenth century. He is % years
old, tall, handsome and wealthy. Be-
sides being an imperial and royal
chamberlain, he is a member of the
; Hungarian house Of lords and an offic-
, er of the Ninth regiment OF Hussars.
