NEW YORK SOCIETY.

England's labor troubles arc not without
their influence on the doings and soings OF
New York society, and many plans ana
projects have been thrown out Of gear
thereby. Those who had expected to sail
for home during the last two weeks IN Au-
gust and who had booked their Passages
on British lines have found that IN the
majority OF instances the boats were pre-
vented from leaving port. and hat 1t has
been impossible even 10 reach Liverpool,
Queenstown or Fishguard owing to the
paralysis OF all railroad traffic IN the
United Kingdom. Others, again, who left
London for visits TO country places in Eng
land or for shooting boxes IN Scotland
which they had leased for the autumn are
marooned, unable to get away and cut of
from communication with tho QUEER world.
Among the few, however, who are de-
termined 10 brave the situation are Mr. and
Mrs Harry Payne Whitney and Payne

on board the Olympic. Among their fell
low passengers are Mr.. and Mrs. Meredith
