Mrs. W. Stanton Elliott. whose marital
nlishaps ended several years ago In the
divorce OF her second husband following
some unlucky Wall Street experiences an
nounced yesterday from her apartment at
the Vanderbilt Hotel that she was now the
wife Of Daniel McRae, an automobile
salesman. The marriage occurred in Eu-
rope seven months ago
Considerable confusion followed this in
formal announcement owing TO the att-
tude taken by her father. William Hen
rlques Wall Street broker Inquiries at
the Henriques house. No. Si Riverside
Drive. received at first an absolute denial,
but further questions were answered by
the advice that the bride herself be con-
suited. The advice was trustworthy, since
not only Mrs. McRae nut her husband con-
firmed the fact of the marriage.
While the name Of Mr.. McRae Is COM
paratively unknown 10 New Workers, that
OF the bride is far from so on account OF
her former unfortunate marriages, and
through them her association with one of
the sensational domestic squabbles OF
wears ago. Her first husband was an Eng
Iishman, Douglas J. Neame. with whom
she lived only a short time and from Whom
she applIed for a divorce In 1891. Divorce
was granted to Neame in London six years
later. but meanwhile there occurred an
event that brought Mrs Neame before the
public again.
"Bif' Ellison, well known character
in Wall Street and about the clubs, met
Mrs Neame after some business transac-
tons with Mr.. Henriques, and Immediately
fell violently in love with her. He haunted
the house, paid impromptu calls at uh-
usual hours OF the day and night ana
finally so aroused the wrath OF Mr.. Hen
riuues that he was forbidden TO come near
the house again. These calls continued IN
spite Of all the family could do, and the
story OF the headlong suit Of the young
broker leaked out.
Mr. Henriques, when the matter was
mentioned to him, not only admitted the
truth Of the story. but added brief ana
pointed postscript In the form OF sharp
criticism Of Ellison. Shortly afterward the
latter met Mr.. Henriques on the street,
knocked him down and beat him so severely
that IL was feared for several months that
he would not live. Ellison was tried, con-
vlcted and sentenced TO five years in sing
Sing. He was pardoned in 1891
Two years later Mrs. Neame married W.
Stanton Elliott He had been at one time
IN the commission business in Boston, but
had not made success Of IL, and removed
70 New York His luck finally took such
slump that he became riding master at an
uptown academy, and II was while he was
serving there that Mrs. Neame met him.
They were married and lived for a time at
No n Riverside Drive.
This marriage was no improvement upon
the fret. for soon afterward Elliott be-
came associated With the stock brokerage
hrn Of Kerr & Co, at No. "a Broadway
He had not been there very long when Mrs
Elliott was compelled TO make good 6
draft for 5000 drawn by him on the com
pany and this difficulty was scarcely
patched Up when several other creditors
appeared. Elliott received enough money
70 take him out OF the country, and hal
not been heard OF since.
The attitude OF the brides parents yer
terday was explained by Mr.. McRss sim
ply as evidence OF their desire 10 keey
the matter from becoming public He de
MED that there had been any opposition Z
the marriage and cited as proof an allege'
visit Of Mrs. Henrlques TO their apartmen
az the Vanderbilt yesterday morning. Mr.
McRae is said 10 be I'm the automobile eusi
ness al No. l7O Broadway.
