NO NEWS YET
FROM AST0RS
SINCE NOVEMBER S NOTHING
HAS BEEN HEARD OF
THE MILLIONAIRE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-Colonel
John Jacob Astors palatial yacht,
the Nourmahal, containing the null
timillionaire and his son Vincent,
is still nnheard from.
The continued absence of news
from the Aston pacht is causing
considerable apprehension among
his friends, who fear that the ves-
sci may have gone down in the
storm of November 10, which
wrought so much damage in ia
maica and the West Indies.
The millionaire's vessel was in
the wake of the storm, and as sew
eral vessels more seaworthy than
the NOurmahal were unable to
weather the gale, 1t Is feared that
the Astor yacht has met with dis
aster.
The search for the Nourmahal
became international today when
the British cruiser Scylla joined in
the hunt for the vessel. Every wire
less station is sending out yacht
calls in the hope of locating the
missing craft, while numerous reve-
nue. cutters and other vessels are
also assisting in the search.
The NOurmahal was last heard
from on November 5, when guests
aboard the yacht wrote from Kings
ton saying that they were leaving
Immediately for Ponce, where they
would land in few days.
Since that time the vessel has
not been heard from and neither
has 1t reached it's destination.
On November Mrs. Astor was
granted an absolute divorce from
her husband, and it is doubtful If
Colonel Astor has heard the out
come of the suit. The millionaire
offered no defense.
Mrs. Astor, who intends to make
her home in Europe, is consider
ably exercised over the continued
absence of news from the Nourma-
hal, as her son Vincent is accom-
panying her divorced husband on
the cruise.
Several days ago Mrs. Astor an
nounced that she would not leave
for her future home until the fate
Of the Nourmahal had been deter
mined.

The PRICELESS HEAD
PIECE of the IMPERIAL

is valued at the immense
