he mentioned the fact that although he
was at the head of corporationa

FAILED TO ENTER
EXCLUSIVE SET
George B. Cox, Political "BOss'" to
Leave Cincinnati for New York.

Cincinnati, Aug. 22.-Having failed
TO gain entrance into the exclusive set
here, George B. Cox, Republican boss
OF Hamilton county, is said to be max.
ing preparations to remove to New York
and make an attempt to break into soci-
ETY. there. Cox is disposing OF all his
Cincinnati real estate, having already
sold to theGrey Eagle saloon and an.
other in the Tenderloin, where he got
his first start as bartender.
The Coxes tried to break into the
upper set at the time Mrs. Nicholas
Longworth, then Miss Alice Roosevelt,
was being entertained here the first
time. The Presidents daughter openly
snubbed them when introduced in a box
at the Latonia race track, in spite OF
the fact that Cox made Longworth what
he is politically.
Cox will not deny that he is about to
remove to New York, but he doesn't
think it anybody's business.
1t is pointed out that he has twice
"abdicated" in politics and has large
theatrical and other financial interests
in New York which might make it log
ical for him to go there.
