(Received Aug. 23, at 0.55 a.m.) Alexander Kerensky, aged 58, the former premier and dictator, married an Australian, Lydia Allen Tritton, aged 33, of Brisbane. Kerensky obtained a divorce in Paris on June 29 and Miss Tritton was divorced in London in 1936 from another Russian, whose name was given only as Nayadin. The couple are coming to New York next week to stay with Mr Kenneth Simpson, the Republican Leader. They will sail for France at the end of September and will make their home in Paris. The bride is a student of Russian affairs. Mr Harry A.
