NEW YORK, May 9.—The title which | Baron Glorgio Mario Suriani of Italy had offered to sell at one time for $100.- 000 has been refused by Miss | Barry, 21-year-old English actress, who to have acquired it in marriage Neither Miss Barry nor the baron ap- peared at the Little Church Around the Corner for their announced ceremony vesterday, disappointing some 200 per- sons who had gathered there. Miss Barry, who arrived for her eve- ning performance in a hysterical state, delaying the rise of the curtain 12 min- utes, said: w l Actress Snubs Baron ' Was Oft Engaged. “No, T will not marry him. Not only | did 1 not know that he had advertised | his title for sale, but I learned, after I got over the shock of seeing about him | in the papers, that he had been engaged | to another woman for the last year.| Well, she can have himf I don't want him Anybody can have him." Suriani and Miss Barry met recently in Denver, and Monday took out a license to wed. The newspapers, how- ever, printed that the baron had adver- tised his title for sale, and that last year he admitted three engagements in | one year, none of which had gotten to the altar. The actress said that was the first time she knew of it. Last March, no takers for his title coming forward, the baron was quoted as saying he expected to get at least $100,000 in marriage. Looked to Wife for Support. “My future wife will look after my comfort,” the newspapers quoted him as saying when he obtained a license to wed Miss Barry. In March, 1927, when the baron sailed for Bermuda to become a dancer in a hotel at Hamilton, he said that he had inherited $500,000 from his father’s es- tate, but that he had spent the money | quickly and had been forced to go to | work. He is an electrical engineer. The baron could not be located after the waiting at the church. | e il HARRY J.
