STUDY BROS. Cor. Main and Jnniala Streets, Tyrone, Ta. EXCLUSIVE Worried to Death by the Drayton-Hor- rowo Scandal Ills Heart Gives Way. Unhappy Mm, llra.rton— Her Life Made Miserable by llorrnwc's I'eciiciitlons.

NEW YORK, April A dispatch from Paris says that William Astor died suddenly at the Hotel The cause was heart failure. Mr. Astor was the father of Mrs. J. Coleinan Drayton, and was greatly worried over the Borrowe-Fox-Milbank scandal, in which she was involved.

Next to his nephew, William Waldorf Astor, and probably Jay Gould, William Astor was the richest citizen in America. His wealth was recently estimated at between $50,000,000 and 100,000,000, the greater part of which is invested in New York real estate. William, who, during the life of hi.s father, was completely overshadowed by him, has always been more of less in tho background so far as public prominence was concerned. He was only recognized by tho reflected light of Ms wife, who, since the deatli of Mrs. John Jacob Astor, several years before that of her husband, has been the acknowledged leader of New York fashionable society.

For many years tho influence of Mrs. William Astor in society matters has been all powerful and she has, in fact, been the sole arbiter of tho fate of tlioso who have sought to gain admittance to the inner circle, or thn crciue do la creme, as Ward McAllister calls it. Her predecessor had been Mrs. John Jacob Astor, her sister-in-law, and after her death it was natural that she should assume the scepter, -the wife of William Waldorf Astor not being recognized by her as entitled to take the lead. Unhappy Mrs.

Drayton. A London dispatch, in part, runs thus, When Borrowe first came to London Mrs. Drayton steadily refused to see him, but at his persistent entreaty she finally arranged a meeting at the Midland Grand Hotel, the last place in Loudon where Coleman Drayton would be likely to look for them unless he had been given a timely tip, but ho did discover them. At this interview Borrowe solemnly promised Mrs. Drayton that ho would return to New York within twenty-four hours.

She has never soon him since. Borrowe did not keep his promise. Ho hung around London for two weeks, knowing perfectly well that in doing so he was irreparably injuring Mrs. Drayton by creating tho impression that he was lingering here to be with her. STATUE OF SILVER.

A Colorado Woman Done In the Immense Display of Gold. CmcAao, April expectn to lead all displays of precious metals at the World's fair. It will send gold and silver galore. In the small area kept for the Centennial state in the mining building will be piled gold and silver nuggets ralued at nearly $250,000. These nuggets will be there, within arm's reach, in glass cases.

But a heavy guard will surround them. A. A. Blow, who has charge of the mining section of tho Colorado exhibit, was at headquarters yesterday. He came to discuss with Chief Skiff certain features of the gold and silver display.

One of these will be the statue of a woman, executed in silver. It will contain worth of the precious metal. It will probably be executed in Chicago. A woman, for whom one of the biggest mines in Colorado was named, was selected as the model for the statue, but owners of rival mines protested with such vigor that the face and figure will be ideal. Mr.

Blow says that the gold and silver exhibit from Colorado, while perhaps not the most important that the state will make, would certainly prove the most interesting to the average visitor to the fair. "There is fascination about a rich display of gold and silver that is difficult to resist," he said. We are making a splendid collection of native gold specimens, from all tho richest mining districts. A single collection, valued at has already been secured. This will be supplemented by the finest collections, secured as loan exhibits.

The exhibit will be both technical and economic in its character, showing a scientific classification of the mineralogy of Colorado and a correct presentation of its geology. At the same time a popular and massive display of ores, building stone, commercial clays and other mineral products will be made. Models, maps and diagrams will employed to show tho progress made in mining. These will bo accompanied by historical data and reliable information regarding tho product and formation of veins in tho mining districts. Mr.

Blow, himself an engineer of standing, visited the exposition "grounds. Ho stood at one end of the manufacture's building and watched two gangs of lofters raising the enormous steel trusses that are to support tho roof of that building. Tho trusses span 387 feet, and where they come together are 211 feet above tho floor. I had rather have conceived and executed the engineering features of this building than be elected president of the United States, he said. "From an engineer's point of view it will be the greatest building in the world.

DOOMED FOR LIFE. I MURDERERS RAVACHOI- AND SIMON BARELY ESCAPE THE GUILLOTINE. DESIGNS. W. 11.

SCULLIN TAILOR IMPORTER Made Her Life MiH When Mrs. Drayton learned that Bor- rowo was still in London she appealed to General Williams and to two other friends to induce him to start for New York at all hazards. She pleaded that by remaining in London Borrowe was utterly ruining her only chance of reconciliation with her parents, husband and children. This was stated to Borrowe in vigorous language. He again promised to sail and again broke his promise.

One of Airs. Drayton's friends, meeting Borrowe in a restaurant some days afterward, told him plainly what ho thought of him. Not until Borrowe learned that Coleman Drayton hud sailed would he leave London, In fact, he has acted from first to last with a supreme disregard of Mrs. Drayton's interest or her reputation.

NEW YOUK, April the proposition was made in the Seventh Regiment armory, a few weeks ago, that the members of the regiment present a silver bell to the United States cruiser New York, it was responded to with enthusiastic unanimity. Each company subscribed $100 at once, as did tho field and the non-commissioned stalls. After consultation with an expert bell- maker it was resolved to limit the cost of this bell to $1,500, not because the Seventh regiment boys were unwilling to raise a larger sum, but because the bell- maker told them that the quantity of silver introduced into the boll metal would necessarily have to be limited. The more silver in the metal the less silver in the sound, he said.

It was then decided to procure a bell weighing between 600 and 800 pounds. In order that the bell might have some historical significance the committee invited members of the regiment and others to contribute spoons, coins or other pieces of silver which have revolutionary or civil war associations. A complete record of such contributions will be handsomely engrossed in a volume, to be bound in Russia leather and to be presented to the cruiser with the bell. VAN LOON WILL HANG.

Tlie Silver Qiutntlon Again Hobs Up Serenely In Hie Semite. WASHINQTON, April was a silver and Pacific railroad day in the senate. Tho silver question came up first by taking up the Morgan silver resolutions which constructively are lying on the table, Mr. Coke, of Texas, speaking at length. It was brought back by the discussion later by tho reply to the question tor information on the proposed international silver conference and is likely to be made a continuing subject of debate for some further days.

Strongly marked divergences of views wero expressed in connection with tho relations of the government to the Pacific railroad companies as legislated upon in tho pending army appropriation bill. Tho senate adjourned with this quc discussion. question still under on Tin Plate. WASHINGTON, April Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, submitted to the house the views of the minority of the ways and means committee on the bill proposing tho repeal of duty on tin plate, terne plate and tag- gers tin. The report states that since the duty was placed on those commodities works for their manufacture have been put in operation at Wellsvillo, and Leechburg and Dernier, and with tho protective duty have been eminently successful.

The cost to consumers has been lessened and in some cases tno quality is declared to be superior to the foreign make. The estimate of the capacity of works established and projected, the report says, shows a probable production of 6,000,000 pounds per week.

OTTAWA, April jury last night returned a verdict of murder in the first degree against Frank Van Loon, charged with killing Farmer Vaudemark in an attempt to rob the Columbus Grove bonk lost September. The crime was one of the boldest ever committed in Ohio. The robber entered the bank iu brood daylight, shot the cashier, T. J. Maple, and Vandemark, who happened to be in the bank doing business.

Grabbing a roll of money he escaped. For several days the excited town people chased the murderer through the country, but hidiug in fields of corn that was yet uncut be finally escaped, Four months afterward Van Loon, whoaa home is here, was arrested. He was convicted on the evidence of Cashier Maple, who recovered, and the man who sold Van Loon the revolver with which the shooting was done, both of whom positively identified him. A. Slanderer'! Confession.

YOUNCWTOWN, April Parish, justice of the peace, charged with criminal libel iu circulating a port that Rev. George McCollom, a Baptist minister, had been too intimate with Mrs. Edward Decker and Mrs. Alvin yesterday, pleaded ilty and was fined $1 ana costs, also signed a statement Mr. McCollom and lifting that tad In the House.

WASHINGTON, April house took iip the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill. As reported the bill carries $1,584,925, being $553,541 less than the estimates. It proposes radical changes in many consulates, and for that reason met with considerable opposition. Mr. Blount, of Georgia, opened the debate, explaining the bill and urged the house to accept the figures of the committee, Mr.

McCreery of Kentucky, Mr. Hitt of Illinois, Mr. Post of Illinois deprecated tho curtailment in salaries and the general cut in the bill and warmly advocated just and proper expenditures. The house then adjourned. The Uitlnnce of the French AnarohUtl Go Fiend IliivniTiol Coolly nnd Hencrllirn Seemed to Olory In llln II.

PARIS, April Bavochol and Simon were found guilty and sentenced to penal servitude for life. The other prisoners wero acquitted. PAUIS, April trial of Bava- chol, alias a half dozen other names; Charles Achille Simon, alias "Biscout;" Joa Beali. alias Joseph Marins; Charles Ferdinand Chaumartin and the girl Rosalie Sonbere began yesterday at the Seine assize court. So many threats have been made that friends of the prisoners would attempt some desperate net to either free the accused or prevent the trial, that admission to tho court room was severely restricted.

Only those personally known to the court officials and the twenty-two witnesses were admitted. Ravnchol's examination, in part, runs thus: "For what purpose," was asked, "did you keep such a largo quantity of strychnine in your room?" I held that in reserve," replied Rava- chol, nulling, "as another means of 'spreading the propaganda when dynamite failod." "Hail yon attempted to poison any person in year to spread the propaganda?" "Well, no: but I was ready for emergencies. I thought it best not to have all my eggs in one basket." Simon answered all questions put to iin impudently and with nice exact- less. The other prisoners were ques- ioncd only briefly. M.

Bonoit and M. Julot, the magistrates whose lives have )een attempted in the cases in question, vero called by M. Do Beaurepaire and related briefly what they had ex- from tho explosions in the luo do Clichy and the Bnlevard St. The little waiter, L'heret, who kept in tiding for fear of his life, was the lost witness for tho prosecution. All signs of tho happiness, which his 4,000 trancs tips after Ravachol's arrest had caused him, have vanished completely.

Se was wliite and scared and jumped nervously every time a window rattled or a door slammed. He was such a ritiable figure that even the jury, who were hardly less nervous, smiled as he Idgeted about under the examination. He became vivacious while relating the story of the arrest in M. Very's wine shop and jumped to his feet to illustrate low M. Drescli and his assistants pinned Rnvachol to tho floor after the struggle.

One of the few witnesses of the defense was Lubonchere, an anarchist, who acknowledged his creed, but refused to say that he approved of spreading the propaganda with dynamite. He said that Ravachol was kind-hearted and when he had money had always helped the poor with it. Ravachol had saved him from starving. In summing up M. Do Beaurapire dwelt at length upon the necessity of distinguishing between anarchy and common crime.

He spoke of Ravachol as a brigand of society, who tried to hide common crimes under the cover of a supposed political conviction. The time had come, he said, to distinguish between free booting and politics. Stops must be taken at once to stamp out the monstrous epidemic called "spreading the propaganda," otherwise it would eat out the vitals of society. There were five speeches for the defense. Maitre Lagasz, counsel for Ravachol, made the longest appeal, in which he spoke eloquently of the prisoner's alleged kindness af heart and his conviction that he was enlisted in a groat cause.

Ct.KVELAND, April to present indications the adherents of Senator Sherman will be in full control of the Republican state convention. Some of them who are usually conservative, as well as well-informed, go so far as to claim that he will have 500 ont of the 773 delegates entitled to seats. The friends of ex-Governor Foraker are not saying very much, preferring to await the arrival of their chieftain, who has been detained in Cincinnati by some important litigation. They are free in the expression of the opinion, however, that they get a decidedly fair show, there will be music in the air.

The managers of the Sherman element say that they are for harmony and conciliation, but at the same time they claim that as an outcome of the convention they will get a majority of the state committee, which is now against them by two or three votes, the permanent organization, all tho nominees on the ticket and three out of the four delegates to Minneapolis. Tho conciliation is to come in when Governor Foraker is made tho fourth delegate-at- large. This proceeding, however, does not particularly commend itself to those of the hitter's supporters who are among tho advance guard, and they are quietly serving notice that the fnr will fly in case the delegation to Minneapolis is not evenly divided.

As to the state committee they arc perfectly willing to have the fight out in the district meetings. The Way the Thing Looks. When tho convention assembles this afternoon Representative Charles P. Griffin, of Toledo, who has been designated as temporary chairman by the Btato committee, will deliver his address; and after the appointment of the usual committee an adjournment will be taken until Thursday morning. If as is probable, tho Shennanites are in control, Governor McKinloy will be the permanent chairman.

Judge Spear, of Warren, will ha no opposition for a renomination for the supreme bench, but for the second nomination there are a score of contestants. A Foregone Conclusion. The platform is certain to be eulogistic in its indorsement of President Harrison's administration, but is not likely to contain instructions.

DOVER, April Kent county court here, with Judge Cullen and Qrubb on the bench, had heard for four days the case of a suspected burglar, James Richardson, of Baltimore, who is indicted for an attempt to murder Charles Smith, county constable, when the latter tried to arrest him. Counsel for the defense raised the point that the officer had no right to make the arrest without a wan-ant, fudge Qrubb charged the jury that the wrest was perfectly legal, and that, had the officer been killed, Richardson would have been guilty of murder. Judge Cullen held that if he had killed the officer, Richardson was guilty of manslaughter, and under the aient charging him with attempted murder, could not be convicted, as the arrest was illegal.

PHILADELPHIA, April 27.

Judge Finletter imposed a sentence of forty years' imprisonment upon Charles Elliott Puruell, the negro who committed a large number of recent robberies in this city and suburbs, among others the house of First Vice President Thompson, of the Pennsylvania railroad, at Merion, where he stole a $200 meerschaum pipe, which he pawned for 75 cents, and the residence of Miss Debonnville, South Sixteenth street. Purnell confessed and pleaded guilty to the Debonnville robbery. Last week Miss Debonnville swore that she positively identified a negro named Moss as the man who robbed her residence. HOBS proved an alibi and the jury acquitted him after being out four days. Purnell was sentenced to ten years each on four bills of indictment.
