SOCIAL WAR IS ON FOR
NEWPORT SUPREMACY
Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish Announces
Change of Base, and Van
derbiIts May Win

NEWPORT. July 17.-War is on in
Newport, but so far the casualties
have been only wounded and no deaths
have been reported. The list of the
wounded is increasing every day and
no one knows where the cruel blasting
of social hopes is to end. Further,
the cruel war is causing not only
wounding of social hopes but fiat
tening of purses, and it is all over
the question as to whether the regular
set or the insurgents are to MAINTAIN
the supremacy in the elect of the sum-
mer colony. In the end the stock mar
ket and the quotations in Wall street
may end the struggle, as the tamlly
fortunes and social prestige are
strangely mixed in the present strus-
gle TO rule.
From the present indications it is
apparent that Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish
and her allies are in retreat, as she
has announced that she will move to
her country place at Garrison, and II
she does it will leave Newport as a
clear field for the Vanderbilts.
For a time it seemed that Mrs. Fish
was winning Then came Elsie French
Vanderbilt, recently separated from
the regulars of the Vanderbilt family
by divorce. Despite the divorce from
Alfred Vanderbilt, she still has the
Vanderbilt name, plenty of money and
a long list of friends. To the assist
ance of Mrs. Commodore Vanderbilt,
Mrs. Frederick w, Mrs. Willie Kn
ir., and Mrs. Reggie, she brought such
allies as Mrs. James b. Haggin, Mrs.
Anna Douglas and Miss Alice Drexel,
all experienced Newport campaigners,
and from tine announcement of the
change of base to be made by Mrs.
Fish it appears that the Vanderbilts
are winning.

WASHINGTON, July 17.-Develop-

are expected at the state department
this week, following the receipt from
Rome of the formal application for the
removal of the young American to
Italy for trial on charge of having
murdered his wife at Lake Como

cined to discuss the attitude of this

the query as to what the United States
will do in the event italy refuses to
grant eXtradition under similar cir
cumstsmces, namely, when one of its
subjects is charged with committing a
crime and escapes to Italy, as well as
to all other subjects involved in the

held at Red Bluff and the lsouthbound
limited at Shasta Springs. Trains No.
