the fact that the general assembly had
already enacted a law making the num-
Der three from each ward. He looked me
squarely I'm the eye and retorted: young

AST0R is SOCIALLY DEAD.
Prince OF Wales Has Ended the Career
OF William Waldorf.

New York, July ia dispatch TO
the journal and Advertiser from
London SAYS:
William Waldorf Astor's sudden
departure for Germany at the very
heighth OF the season. the canceling
OF all his engagements here and the
recall of the invitations which he had
issued for house parties OH next sun
day and on Sunday week at Cliveden,
are universally regarded as sigualiz-
ing the close of his social career in
London.
1t is openly declared here that the
Prince OF Wales, who is the supreme
arbiter of English society. has cut
him, IN consequence OF his insulting
treatment of Captain Sir Milne last
week, and London is only too ready
to take its cue III this natter from its
future king, as Aston. in spite of his
wealth and of the magnificence of his
entertainments has made many Ell
emies by his numerous idiosyncrasies
and by his extraordinary arrogance.
Confirmation Is given to these sto-
ries OF Mr.. Astor's fall from royal
favor by the fact that his name i
conspicuously absent from the list of
guests asked to the queens party at
buckingham palace tomorrow. for
over a thousand invitations have
been issued.
