XT ASHINGTON.-The public rebuke w of President Taft, in which he stigmatized certain persons as small brained and narrow-minded critics, following the withdrawal of names of men prominent in the political world up for membership in the ultra-exclu- sive Metropolitan club, has centered the attention of the country on the snobbishness of Washington.
 Close observers assert that the i'm impetus given to existing social condi- tions dates from the Spanish-American war. Before the treaty of Paris the millionaire residents of Washington could be counted on the fingers. Now all the rich and retired, the famous or otherwise, the representative of whis- ky. sugar, tobacco-every kind of trust has his palace in an ultra-exclusive residential section and the womenkind set up to be social leaders
 Money and influence in the gflded throng is the test which Washington now applies to every ambitious public man and his wife. The clubs are ruled by money, and men who have baked the political or financial schemes of those who are high in Washington clubdom are punished if they seek the companionshtp in clubs such as they would obtain in their home cities

Influence of Money in Capital Clubs

One of the most exclusive clubs in Washington keeps on it's rolls man who deserted his wife and six children to elope with the wife of a fellow member of the same club, while 1t re- fused admission to a man who had de feated the ambitions of certain high officials. Ten years ago the late Gen. Henry C. Corbin, then adjutant gen. eral of the United States army, was kept out of this same club through the efforts of men whose sons he would not appoint to fat positions during the Spanish-American war. So many such incidents have occurred in the past decade that they cease to surprise.
