Announcement that Idle Hour is to be-

Of rumors that have been heard in the
past few years When 1t became known
that Harold Vanderbilt was not disposed
to retain the estate for his own use sew
eral prospective purchasers inspected it,
IL was reported not long ago that the
Roman Catholic diocese of Brooklyn and
Long Island would buy Idle Hour and es
tablish there a seminary for young men
intending to enter the priesthood. u is
understood that this prospective pur-
chaser made an offer which was not re.
garded as sufficient by the Vanderbilt in
terests.
Another rumor had II that the estate
would be made into club for graduates
of Vanderbilt University, which was
founded by Commodore Vanderbilt in
1873. II was also said that members OF
the South Side Sportsmens Club which
IL near by. were thinking OF making an
offer.
Early in 1918 Mr.. and Mrs. w. X Van
derbilt offered the estate to the American
Red Cross. to be used as a hospital foi

William II. and grandson of Cornelius
Vanderbilt. delighted to deal in big things.
On the death of his brother. Cornelius, he
became virtually the sole head of the Van
derbilt system of railroads. into which the
New York Central had grown, and at the
time Of his greatest railroad activity his
creative instinct was also manifesting
itself in many other ways. He built the
house at Fifty.frst street and Fifth ave

and is still one of the show places OF New
York.

Mr. Hunt, after considering several at
tractve possibilities, selected as the site
a bluff overlooking Great River, with the
Great South Bay glimmering in the dis
tance. The original house that he built
there was destroyed by fire. His son, Rich
ard H. Hunt, erected the present Idle Hour
at exactly the same spot
The estate and its development are re-
ported to have cost Mr.. Vanderbilt more
than $6,000.000. He is supposed to have.
spent about SS00000 more on the furnish
ings, tapestries and decoration of the house.
Last year Mr. Vanderbilt died. He had
spent most of his later years abroad and
for five years Idle Hour has not been oc-
cupied except by caretakers and servants

and saw the possibilities of developing 1t
into what is described "as the finest and
most exclusive country club in existence"
The syndicate, organized among his
friends, includes-THE New oRK HERALD

that Harold s. Vanderbilt will be a mem
