decree was granted Aug 3, 1911, and
four days later the elder Gates died.
Before Charles returned to America
from the deathbed of his father, his
engagement to wed Miss Florence
Hopwood of Minneapolis was announc-
ed. They were married Sept. 81, 1911,
in Uniontown, Pa. The first Mrs.
Gates died in New York last Septem-

Minneapolis for about year and a

When he left for the west. Mrs.
Gates went to New York, where she
was visiting her husbands mother,

Mr.. Gates was a member OF the

America, the Atlantic Yacht. New

When young Gates first became an
active factor on the New York stock
exchange, in 1901, he set the high
mark in prices for a seat up to that
time, $4,000. Later he got $4,000
for the $4,000 seat that the street
called a young mans folly. His 9TH
er trades seemed TO show much of
the same luck.
DIVORCED BY FIRST WIFE.
Charles Gates married twice. His
first wife was Mary W. Martin of St.
Louis, who became his bride Nov %,
1898, while he was engaged in his first
brokerage ventures. His tendency to
seek the spotlight caused her, 13 years
late, to seek divorce, for she was re-
firing, modest and shy of the public
gossip and clamor which her daring
young husband brought to the family
to the accompaniment of brass band.
Gates was in Los Angeles when he
heard his wife contemplated suit and
made a futile trip by special train to
prevent it,
