Hartman Is Secluded
And VIII See No One

New York. August 25.-Two feet above
the sea level, at his country estate near
Arden. n. Y, Edward Fl. Hartman is
resting in seclusion tonight. Shielded
from business cares, barred from visitors
practically isolated in his home. he dis
appeared from the public eye in man
ner no less dramatic than his display of
grit upon his arrival from Europe yes
terday. On the automatic railway that
bore him, seated in an automobile, to his
lofty home last night he was whisked
from view like a stage manikin. Then
the curtain dropped and news of Mr..
Hartman ceased. True brief announce
ment was made at the Union Pacific
offices today that he was resting quietly
and by telephone TO Arden it was learned
tonight that there was no change in his
condition. But aside from this he is as
far away from the public as he was in
Austria.
All reports concerning Mr.. Harriman's
health, his assistants made known today
are to come from his office here. There
is to be no telephoning to Arden; no
vigil of reporters there; no informal talks
with members of the family or physicians.
Mr.. Hartman has retired in the truest
sense of the word for his after cure"
and nothing is to disturb him.
Just as the country eagerly read the ca
bles from abroad concerning the inan-
cier's health, debated thereon and bought
or sold stocks according to its interpre-
tation, so 1t has gone on since the brief
plimpse of him Yesterday.

Hiram Hedges, a farmer, was killed one
night before his door in Nicholas county;
he gave the wording of the blood-curd

that his power had been limited to pun

was followed quickly by inquiries from
nearly every other newspaper in the
city which had in the meantime re-
ceived the report.
The coroner quickly found that he
had been duped and as the Grand Union
hotel appeared quiet and normal when
the reporters arrived 1t was seen there
had been a mistake. Clinching the fact
came a laconlc telephone message from
Mr. Vanderbilt himself, or at least one
who said he was Mr.. Vanderbilt, who
called up the coroner's Office and casu-
ally remarked; Il understand / have

He was told such a report was in
circulation and that the coroner was
trying to learn where it originated.
Mr.. Vanderbilt treated the whole mat

The man who called the coroner's of
