THE DRAYros SCANDAL.

Mrs. Drayton's Answer In tho Divorce
Suit Not Yet Filad.
TRENTON, N. j., Sept. 7.--The answer
OF Mrs. J. Coleman Drayton to her hus.
bands petition for divorce has not been
filed, although yesterday was the last
day for doing go. This failure does not,
however, necessarily work for
feiture OF the right to make q
defense, as the time for filing the an
swgr can be extended by application to
the chancellor or any OF the four vice
chance ors, or even by mutual agree
ment OF counsel for both sides.
NEWPORT, r. l., Sept. 7.-Mr. ].
Coleman Drayton's suit for divorce
from his wife. Carrie Drsyton, created
o great surprise here. for it was generally
felt that separation had been mutually
agreed upon and was regarded by the
Actors as the wisest course. A re.
porter called at the Beeohwood
and asked Mrs. Astor whether or
not Mrs. Drayton or her friends were to
mako any defense to Mr.. Drayton pro-
ceedings. The lady replied that she
could provide no information, that she
knew nothing of her daughter'a inten-
tions.
Mrs. Drayton is at present travelling
in Europe with companion. A friend
of the Astors said that Mrs. Drayton had
recently been seeking to take legal steps
to obtain the children, and it was the
speakers idea that Mr.. Drayton's move
was ae much to gain legal control of them
as for any other purpose.
The children are now with him at
Tuxedo, and he collects for them inter-
est from money left them by the late
William Astor.
OF late it has been ascertained that
Mrs. Drayton sought to gain control of
the children by inducing the executors
opay to her, rather than to Dray ton, the
allowance for the children's support.
This, however, the executors declined to
do, and it is now an established cuntom
for them to RECOGNIZES Mr.. Drayton aa the
guardian Of the children.
