Vanderbilt Heir Mystery Stirs New York Office Rumors
In Grand Central’s vast private room Theodore Depew discusses the Vanderbilt estate. Alfred Vanderbilt, 23, and 18 year old Reginald are named heirs while Cornelius, a recent graduate, faces questions of disinheritance. Alfred’s return from a world tour is awaited, with probate timing still uncertain amid pending readings of the will. Elsewhere, a horse theft suspect Zimmerman faces charges after being captured near Chiopyle following a trail led by Constable Muffly. Zimmerman's claim he never robbed a widow or a friend of the horse is noted.

Vanderbilt Will Readings And Family Talks On Heirs
The will was read and Alfred was urged to come home at once. Cornelius, the eldest, faced questions of being cut off, while relations with his father were described as fair though strained by past marriage. No reconciliation occurred, yet Cornelius dined at home and visited. The estate will stay managed by the family railroad interests, with Cornelius Jr. a Yale-leaning, studious heir likely to return from Japan after learning of his father’s death. Rumors link him to Miss Elise French, a millionaire’s daughter.
