Though Defeated in the Law Coust He Wins in Love, Loxpox, June 10, —The jury in the bac- carat trial has retarned a verdictagaingg Sir William Gorden Cumming. From the time the jury retired to de- Hberate upon their werdict umtil moment they returned to court on fifteen minutes elapsed, showing appar- ently that they were of one opmion as to the merits of the case. The announcement of the verdict was received with slight hissing in the court upon the part of these who were in sym y with the plaintiff. These marks of disapprobation, however, were promptly suppressetl, and as the court room an to be vacated by its deeply interested, chatting audience, the cur tain may be said to have been lowered over the Tranby Croft drama, and Sir William is practically found guilty of cheating in a friendly game. LoxpoN, June 11. —8Sir William Gor- don Comming has come out of the bac- carat trial better off than any one else, despite his probable expulsion from all his clubs, as well as from the army, This is the gist of public opinion. In addition he was married yesterday to Miss Garner, and official capacities at the wedding were filled by representa- tives of the aristocracy and the army. Sir William's denial the other day that he was to marry Miss Garner was of a piece with the chivalrous|spirit which, so far as can be discovered from any- thing that has transpired, seems to have animated him at all times. He desired to Hinke her release from him as easy as possible, Lady and Sir William Gordon Cam- ming left this city shortly after the cere- mony for the bridegroom's estate, Al- tyre, near Forres, in In where the will spend their honeymoon. When the verdwet was pronounced against him Sir William again offered to cancel his engagement to Miss Garner, but that lady, believing in his innocence, would not hear of such a thing, and in- sisted that the marriage should take place. It is expected that Sir William and his wife will visit the United States in the fall. Lady Gordon Cumming is the oldest daughter of the late Commodore Garner, of New York, who was drowned in July, 1876, with hus wife, through the capsiz- ing of Mr. Garner's yacht Mohawk. WALES IS SORRY. And Will Not Be Disciplined for Violating Army Regulations, LospoN, June 16. — Hon. Edward Stanhope, secretary of state for war, re- plying in the house of commons to a Guektian put by Mr. William Summers, (Gladstone Liberal) in regard to the baccarat scandal, said that Sir William Gordon Cumming was the chief person who had broken faith, because Pedi not report the case to his commanding officer. Of the three officers concerned Gen. en Williams was a retired officer of army, and was, therefore, not sub- 2 to the regulations, but the other wo— Field Marshal the Prince of Wales and Lieut. Berkeley Levett—undonbt- edly were. The former, said Mr. Stan- hope, on looking back at all the circum- stances of the case, had authorized him, Mr. Stanhope, to say that he now saw that an error of judgment had been committed. Lieut. Berkeley Levett had written a letter to his commanding officer express- ing deep regret that he had not acted in accordance with the army regulations. Consequently, said the secretaryof war in conclusion, it was not proposed to take any further action in the matter HOT, HOTTER, HOTTEST.
