Lawyers Refuse to Discuss Report
About the Astors.

New York, Feb. 1l.-Lawyers in the
suit brought by Mrs. John Jacob Astor
for divorce from Colonel John Jacob AS
ton had nothing to say today regarding
the report that the Astors may be recon
ciled.
The report arose from the failure of
Mrs. Astors counsel to apply within
the last three days for a confirmation OF
the interlocutory degrees of divorce grant
ed by Justice Mills. 1t is the custom for
counsel to apply at the earliest momen,
to the court to make final the decree OF
divorce Mrs. Astor is now in Europe
and Colonel Aston left the city yesterday
The divorce proceedings were conduct
ed last fall before Justice Mills and ne
names were mentioned that would make
difficult reconciliation.
