It's a bad wind that blows nobody good The elaborate floral decorations which had been arranged for the wedding of Miss ce Wilson and Mr. Cornelius Vander- ir, today were distributed among the in the hespitais in New York vest There were 10,000 Ilics of the yall day. 10,000 white, pink and red roses and many oxes of orchids in the frag After Mr. Vanderbilt’s physician decided that he could not leave his room with safety today, Mr. Wilson abandoned all the arrangements and sent out to invited guests an anncuncement of the postpone- ment of the wedding. The New York Journal says: Ata late hcur last night Mr. Wilson sent werd to a reporter who calied at his hos that Mr. Vanderbilt's condition was same as it had been in the afternoon. nt collection, the ery At the Vanderbilt house the at- at the door said he was to say that young Mr. Vanderbilt had a “slight attack of rheumatism,” and de- nied that his condition was at all serious. The same statement was made by the night attendént at a later hour, Young Vanderbilt sent for his father at wport on Monday, and his father return ed to New York on the night boat, arriv ing Tuesday mornirg. He drove at or to the Vanderbilt mansion, and spent the day with his son. Drs. Janeway and Dra- per, the Vanderbilt family physicians, visit- ed the house early in the evening, and at a later hcur a message was sent to the Wil- son house on 5th avenue. Immediately after its receipt R. T. Wilson, jr, an- peunced the postponement. Of course, what transpired between Mr. ¥anderbilt and his son behind the drawn curtains in the big house on Sth avenue can only be surmised. Following the sw- instructed gen change of plan in which it resulted Mrs. Vanderbilt appeared at the ho having come from Newport yesterday morning. Presumably there was a long discussion of the future by which the young man was induced to favor a tem- perary postponement of his marriage on the ground of ill health. It was sald last night that as soon as he was in condition to travel he would taken away for an indefinite sojourn at some watering place, and that evenually the announcement would be made that hi engagement with Miss Wilson had canceled. Mr. and Mrs. Vanderbilt gave evidence of their satisfaction with the way events had turned last night by appearing to- gether for the first time since the wedding arnouncement was made among their so- ciety friends. They dined, in the best of spirits, in the ladies’ annex of the Metro- politan Club. ‘There were many society people abroad n yesterday ready to say, “I told you 80. here are few who expect that the wed. ding of young Cornelius and Miss Wilson, £0 elaborately planned for today, will ever teke place. Mr. Vanderbilt is believed to have conquered the disobedience of his son completely, though there 1s the final agree- ment to annul the engagement yet to be made. This will rot come at once, but later in the summer, when the events now fresh tn the public mind are in a measure fergotten. The Wilson family, it is satd, will leave at once for their summer house Mr. and Mrs. John J.
