N ew York City
Is Startled by
Fake Report
Story that Alfred G. Vanderbilt Had
Been Shot in Hotel Causes
Excitement.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-New York was
startled shortly after midnight today by
a report which originated from some un-
known source and was communicated to
the coroner's office tina Alfred Gwynne
Vanderbilt a been shot at the Grand
Union hotel, at Forty-secoud street and
Park avenue. Tho coronef's clerk who
received the mysterious information by
phone notified Coroner spfady, who i'm
medlately started for Bellevue hospital,
where 1t was understood Mt. Vanderbilt
had been taken. Before going, however,
the coroner ~telephoned bellevue and
learned that Mr.. Vanderbilt was not
there. Subsequent inquiry at the Grand
Union hotel showed that there had been
no shooting there this evening.
The clerk at the hotel said that the first
intimation that he had Of any shooting
came through an inquiry from a New
York morning newspaper This vas fol-
lowed quickly by inquiries from nearly
every other newspaper in the city which
in the meantime had received the report.
The coroner quickly found that he had
been duped and as the Grand Union hotel
appeared quiet and normal when the re-
porters arrived, II was seen that there
had been a mistake. Cfinching this fact
came a laconic telephone message from
Mr.. Vanderbilt himself, or at least one
who said he was Mr.. Vanderbilt, who
called UP the coroner's office and casually
remarked, Il understand T nave been
shot
He was told such a report was in circu-
lation and that the coroner was trying to
learn where It originated. Mr.. Vanderbilt
treated the whole matter as d joke.
The man who called the eoroner's office
and said he was Mr.. Vanderbilt was talk
ing at the time from the New York club
in West Fortieth street, of which Mr..
Vanderbilt is a member.
About the only mystery remaining to be
cleared UP now is why the rumor was
