NEW YORK. Feb 4.--There Is trou-
bic among the social leaders here over
the plans for the entertainment of
Prince Henry, the brother of the Ger
man Emperor, during his ensuing
visit.
The principal event OF his visit was
to be an evening at the Metropolitan
Opera House. The managers of the af-
fair In conjunction with the owners of
the Opera House appropriated the five
principal boxes without consulting the
lesees One of these lesees at least,
Thomas Hitchcock says, he won't give
UP his box and that it can't be taken
from him.
Mr. Hitchcock is one OF the type of
the old school Americans in New
York. He is of fine family, and holds
strongly to the democratic ideas of his
forefathers.
His sentiments In regard to the en-
tertainment of Prince Henry are
shared by his son Thomas, yr., and the
latter's wife. who spend much OF their
time at Aiken. s. C.. and at Tuxedo
The Senior Hitchcock Is a lawyer
and man of large wealth. He is con-
nected by marriage with the family OF
the late Senator Eustis of Louisiana,
and Is strong Democrat In politics.
Mr.. Hitchcock talked freely today
his attituae.
This whole proceeding to entertain
the Prince Is contrary to the principles
Of democracy of this republic. 1t Is
piece OF snobbishness on the part OF
those Americans who are evidently
unfamiliar with American history and
the Revolutionary period.
''The Prince comes here as an In
iividual and not as an Ambassador.
Therefore why should he be received
with extraordinary distinction? Fur
