REMOVING A HISTORIC TREE.

< The time has come when it appears to
 be necessary to cut the old elm tree that
 has probably stood for century or more
 on Elm street, in order to widen the road
 way for the trolley line, which will be
 extended to the east part of the borough.
 The tree has stood directly in the way of
 public travel for number of years and
 several unsuccessful efforts have been
 made to have it removed. The inhabi-
 tants in that part of the borough petit
 toned for meeting, which was called for
 last Monday evening. The question was fully discussed and a vote was taken which resulted in favor of cutting the old
 tree, which will now be removed within a week or so. The street will be made several feet wider and put to proper grade. The old elm tree has the reputa. tion of standing in front of the old house where the late P. T. Barnum was born

TO STOP The SCANDAL
Reconciliation May Be Effected in
the Vanderbilt Family.
Col. lay Is Said to Have Charge
Of the Plans for Settlement.
A Rumor that Young Marlborough
May Wed Willie KS Daughter.

Additional particulars of the internal
disturbances in the Willie Vanderbilt,
household are forthcoming day by day
Mrs. Vanderbilt and the three children
are now at Schwalbach, which is on the
direct line from Paris to Homburg. Col
and Mrs. William Jay are with Mrs
Vanderbilt, and the settlement of the
family difficulties is entirely in Col
jays hands.
The special copyrighted despatch from
Paris In 1.-The World" states that re-
newed efforts are being made by Corne-
Illus Vanderbilt and others of the fam
lily to hush up the scandal, and other
Intimate friends are vigorously second
bic that at least formal reconciliation
will be effected, for the publicity given
the matter has caused all parties the
greatest concern and the great scandal
While there has been no communca-
ton between the aggrieved principals,
unless Chauncey Depew. who was called
to Paris few days ago TO consult with
P Pre- NeWel the Lake. Shore
road, may have stopped over at Schwal-
bach on his way from Paris to HON.
Col. Jay is now IN Paris, and negotia-
tons looking to a settlement will proba-
bly, be at once begun. I.
The trouble between Mr.. and Mrs
Vanderbilt eliminated IN an open rup-
ture when Mrs. Vanderbilt is alleged to
have put such public insult upon her
husband and his friends of the yachting
party. that Valiant,s trip was brought to
u sudden close, and a temporary separa-
lion, at least was agreed upon.
Mr.. Vanderbilt's most intimate friends
declare that his very open relations with
the girl Nellie Neustraetter were so
publicly paraded solely with the inten-
ton Of forcing Mrs. Vanderbilt to ac-
ton. These friends say that 1t was not
an instance of infatuation for the girl,
Mr.. Vanderbilt's conduct hitherto being
most exemplary.
Mr.. Vanderbilt was most anxious at
the lime OF the rupture that Mrs. Van
derbilt return to America and abandon
the proposed occupation OF Danesfieid on
the Thames. but Mr.. Murray, the owner
OF the property, would not consent to
subletting: SO Mrs. Vanderbilt went
fortnight ago.
Gossip is rife about the possibility OF
q marriage between the eldest Miss
Vandeibiit and the young Duke Of Marl-
borough. He. recently paid visit
to Danesfeld, It Is said, and 1t Is further
reported that the Duke will not be able
to keep up Blenheim unless his present
income Is very largely Increased by
marriage or In some other way.
1t had been intended to introduce Miss
Vanderbilt to society during the coming
Winter in either London or Paris, but
whether or not there Is a reconciliation
IT is likely Mrs. Vanderbilt will soon re-
turn to this country. Miss Vanderbilt is
about eighteen and very pretty girl.
