Proposed Union of the Astor and Lenoex With the Tilden Fund. From the N. Y. Times. A consolidation of the Astor and Lenox libraries with the Tilden trust fund is now probable. It was considered possible ten menths ago, when the project of making a final disposition of the Tilden trust fund by a consolidation with the Astor library was placed beyond informal discussion by the appointment of a committee by the trust fund trustees. William Waldorf Astor and other repre- sentatives of the Astor family were at once interested in the plan. He said that it was the only proper course to take in the in- terest of the city, and that he was very glad to learn of the project. Later, the scope of the scheme was enlarged by sub- mitting it to the trustees of the Lenox M- brary. The result was the appointment of ccmmittees to consider consolidation. The Astor library committeemen repre- sented cleven trustees, those of the Lenox library sixteen, and those of the Tilden trust fund five. Meetings, which were fre- quent, and fully attended, were held at the residence of Mr. Ledyard, with the result last week of perfecting the plan to the pcint of enabling the committees to report back to their respective boards recom- mendations that each nominate seven trustees to form a joint committee of twenty-one on consolidation. “We have arrived,” said Mr. King, yes- terday, “at a basis of union which we shall recommend to our different boards as a basis of union. Only preliminary ideas have prevailed. Matters of detail have to be arranged, and nothing can be regarded as settled. But I think it safe to say that New York may soon be congratulated on being on the high road to possess a free public library of which she may well be proud.” coe Gene to Rome. Father Nevins, the superior of the Paul- ist House of Studies at the Catholic Uni- versity, is in Rome, where he went on ac- count of ill health. Father Simms of New York is in charge during the absence of Father Nevins. ——-— Accidentally Shot. Thomas J.

End@ of the Glascock "Case, Which Senator Stewart Figured. By a document filed by Mr. Campbell Carrington, counsel for the complainant, the sult for divorce filed by Chas. L. against Currie M. Glascock the 6th of last June has been discontinued or dismissed out of court. This was the suit in which Senator Stew- art of Nevada was connected by statements made by Mrs. Glascock, the woman charg- ing that the Nevada statesman had been gullty of improper relations with her. Sen- ator Stewart denied the woman's allega- tions in full, and was allowed to intervene in the suit, filing his denials and charging @ collusion between Giascock and his wife, through the means of the suit, to black- mail him, after having failed to extort money. Glascock and his wife came here from North Carolina, the man being for a time employed in the Richmond and Danville railroad office here. The woman enlisted the sympathies of Senator Stewart, and he several times assisted her, she stating to him that she and her children were in an utterly destitute condition. When, how- ever, the divorce suit was filed, and his name was connected with it, Senator Stew- art became convinced that he was made the object of a conspiracy, and at one time, it is said, intended prosecuting the man and woman. The papers in the case, under a practice not authorized, it is said, by any particular rule of the District Supreme Court, were placed in the safe of the clerk of the court, and their contents in that way withheld from publication. Glascock and his wife are stated to have removed from Washing- ton, and Mr. Carrington, the husband's at- torsey, declines to state the reasons for dismissing the suit. —__ The mansion of Carter Braxton, one of the signers of the Declaration of Indepen- dence, at present owned by Dr. Charles ssiictnagsae penned down Tuesday. with a cold many a one allows him- od? to o date ‘into ‘condition favorable ‘to the de. velopment of some latent disease, whi takes full possession of the 8} your cold at once with Dr, D.
