MRS THAW RETAINS FUNDS.
Story of a Large Gift to Westminister
College is Denied.
PITTSBURO, PA., May 3.?Frank
Sein pie, manager of the Thaw estate',
denied today that Mrs. William Thaw
would give $50,00 or $200,000 to West?

Mr. Sem pie intimated thai Mrs. Thaw
was not distributing her charities now
so bounteously as formerly, nor would
sho resume her benefactions until af?
ter the fate nf her son, Harry K.
Thaw, had been finally determined.
As tho revenues of the members of
the Thaw family are derived from the
estate left by William Thaw, and as
Mr. Semplo has complete control of
tho management of the estate, his
knowledge of (lie financial affairs and
plans is beyond dispute.
