Upon the arrival of-the injured men
at the union depot last evening they
were transferred to the central police
station patrol wagon, which conveyed
them to st. Luke's hospital. at later
hour it was learned that the men were
resting easily. DIR. Bacon, the attend.
Ing physician, said:
There will be no fatal cases, as the
burns are all superficial, and there has
been 10 charring of the flesh in any
instance. They may carry scars for a
little while, until new skin forms. but
after that they will be all right"
The GLOBE reporter walked through
the ward in which the injured men lay,
and saw them stretched on their cots
swathed in lint and cotton. DR.. Bacon
thinks that they will improve rapidly.

William Waldorf Astor.
William Waldorf Astor has Great


William Waldorf Astor has created
more of stir than any of the Astor men
of the last two generations. He is the
only Astor who has ever sold any real
estate, and what he sold was his grand
fathers old home at SO Lafayette place.
1t was shrewd sale. for, from its posi-
ton. had he held 1t. possibly it might
have been incumbent upon him to
donate it to the Astor library, which is
next door. The proceeds of the sale
were Immediately reinvested in real es.
tate, and probably nothing was lost.
William Waldorf also has literary
aspirations, and while laboring under
the weight of responsibilities incident
to his diplomatic career as President
Arthur's minister to Italy, he procured
the publication of novel which has
been read through, no doubt. He has
also had built for him some very lofty
hotels in this city, the Waldorf and the
New Netherlands. He married Miss
Mary Paul, Of Philadelphia, and has
family. but as these children are never
likely to become American citizens they
do not much concern this continent
He is graduate of Columbia college
and member of the bar. was once sent
to Albany as member of assembly.and
once as state senator. Of his record
there. if any, history does not speak.
But this continent proved too new and
too crude and to philistine for his tastes
and ambitions, SO, skipping across the
herring pond, he picked up a newspa-
per. magazine and ducal residence,
each in separate lots, for cash.
There is no evidence yet of the pur-
chase OF cOronet. or even a lower
badge of aristocracy; but everything
comes to him who waits, and the sac
rihces incident to abjuring ones country
and abusing ones cOuntrymen cannot
fail to touch the heart of royalty, or
some far-seeing prime minister, with
the wit to appreciate the advantage of
importing some hundred millions of
good American dollars, and, incident
ally, changing bad citizen of repub-
lie into an obsequious subject of her
Britannia majesty ana empress of India.
Following the career of this family
from its tough and sturdy founder down
through three generations, the cOnvic-
ton is forced upon one that prosperity
is very insldlous disease. which, while
biding its time, yet saps the vitality of
Its victims, and within the limits of less
than century can so dilute the blood
OF the sturdy German as to bring the
name where it now stands. There has
been more or less insanity in each gen.

The Fourth John Jacob.

John Jacob fourth married Miss Ava
Willing. of Philadelphia, and has an in
rant son perpetuating the name. He
was Harvard man and has some liter
airy aspirations. having produced last
winter book somewhat on the lines of
Jules Verne's tales, but worked out. if
with less Imagination, with more def
erence to the possible developments Of
physical science in the near future. 1t
proves him to have at least dabbled in
science. even if not deep scholar. A
little learning is proverbially danger

harm. and will not, if kept out of the

The Aston Library.
William b., the elder, founded the
Astor library. to which his son, John
Jacob. has since contributed very largely.
1t is without doubt the finest library Of
reference for scholars and students in
the country, and the most generally dis
liked OH account OF the disObliging sys-
TEN OF Its management 1t is also the
only public benefit the city can credit
to this family.
Thus William b collected his rents,
lived to a good old age, courteous gen.
tlenan. and was gathered to his fore
fathers. leaving his princely fortune
principally to his two sons, who were
'compos mentis." He also made liberal
allowances to his daughters, Mrs. Frank
lin DelanO, Mrs. Henry Carey. and to his
granddaughter, Mrs. John Winthrop
Chanler. whose father was the late Sam
ward, OF memory revered by all good
Hvers with or without bad livers.

the most liberal and open-handed con-

At the time Governor Hogg par
doned ISrebs and Preston. who were
serving life terms In prison for muir
der. the Gazette took occasion to de-
clare that grIevous error had been
committed by some one, and that the
blame either rested upon the shdul-
ders OF the court and jury who tried
the prisoners. or upon Governor Hogg
for granting them pardon. The crime
for which these men were convicted
was as atrociqus and blood-thirsty as
ever stained the name OF a Christian
state, and II guilty they deserved the
punishment Of death as pronounced by
the jury. They were convicted about
seventeen years ago. and II Innocent,
as Governor Hogg seems firmly con-
WINGED, have suffered all these years
for another's oftense. and no reppra-
ton by the state can possibly repay
them FOR this blot upon their lives.
But the graphic description OF the
trial. the law governing the cases, and
the evidence sdduced as given by Judge
Il. Il. plner In the Gazette yesterday
viii cause thousands OF Texas people
to believe that Governor Hogg has
acted unwiscly in exercising his par
donlng power In this instance. Judge
Plner was one Of the attorneys for the
prosecution at the trial Of the defend
ants. and his recital OF facts is not
only from a personal recollection. but
from the printed evidence in the APP
pcllate court reports, to which tribunal
an appeal was twice taken, once re-
smung in reversing the lower court,
and then upon the second hearing. in
a confirmation OF the sentence.

one OF the victims, asserted In an ante
