TO M'lLLISTEE DEFINES SWELLS wInd Talks About the Leaders of tlie Set and w - the Latest Idiocies. :GEOTEE'S WIFE IN THE BOURGEOISIE j.-trrCIALTILEGRAJI TO THE DISPATCIT.' it &w York, Feb. 10. The "400" of Tew Tork have dwindled to 150. is -A. war of abolition in fashionable life, "Warith all its attendant vendettas of family jealousies, is the sensation that has been " keeping clubrooms and boudoirs in an up ,,f roar for the past week. There are great fortunes with little names and great names ewith little fortunes involved, and the Xapo i spleen of this social Mafia is Ward McAllis ter. "' The "400" were entirely amicable over breakfasts, luncheons and teas, but it was over the dinner table that the abolition first started. The nrst to throw the gauntlet down nere the great names with little for tunes the blue-blooded ancestry of Puritan origin who were born with tact, brains and small incomes supported by unlimited self esteem, and old family portraits in oil. Of course, some of the little names with great fortunes w ere patronized by the great names without fortunes, and they joined the an cestral prodigies. There was no sudden clash of sentiment, no rude or vulgar w ord, no outward bombardment The "400" dis asreed, as ladies and gentlemen will dis agree, with the rarified atmosphere that be longs to high altitudes. , McAllister Talks on the Social Situation. In "Ward McAllister's opinion, thewhole thing is pure snobbery, but then this is a case where the everlasting fall of the "400" : -i is imminent. -A reporter who called on him "-to get the lacts about this disintegration in the social camp found him engrossed in thought. Since he has joined the Immor tals in authorship his pen has been ever -"ready in the interests of society, and his - first greeting had a professional flavor that was flattering. ,'You see, nivdeah boyI write articles myself now,andifI say anything I give you my thunder." He placed the reporter upon a footing of rivalry that it took some time to convince him wa out of the question. "When subsequently he thundered, it was with 3 freedom and ease that he has long withheld from the interviewer. "Do you think the '400' are increasing their ranks?" was asked. "Well, you know, there have always been 450 swells. Such a number has never been gathered together at any one of the great entertainments, however." From the archives of his desk he drew seeral account books. "At the last Hew Year's ball," he continued, "there were only 319 swells present." "Eighty-one of the '400' missing?" was asked. "Xo, not exactly that, you see some - had seceded; they always will, you know. A lady once said to me, Why not invite a thousand people? That would be impossi ble. The 50 gentlemen, don't you see, would never allow it" Gold and r.looil at War. "Is there not a split in the '400?' " "Xo, I would not say that. A certain . lot of people have conceived the notion , that the moneyed classes in society are en croaching upon the old families. The new - rich, with their power of wealth and with " one great ambition social prominence were to be met with everywhere at dinner 'parties and balls afterward. Some ot them Jvere charming people, the others were not, - and some of them belonged to the '400.' " "Then there was a disagreement?" "Well, it appears so. and it ha taken the form this winter of what Is known as the dinner dance, don't you see?" "What is a dinner dance?" "An American shy at delusiveness. Six ladies have formed a -ort of select club "where, when one gives a dance the other five give dinner parties. These dinner par ties are limited to 30 guests." "Which makes the 130?" "Exactly." ,,."Then some of the 400 are excluded?" e "Undoubtedly. Its the new and exclu-r-, -sive set. To my mind I don't approve of it. -. -I think it is mere snobbery to shut out any i of the real swells you understand." '"ik- Tht Ken! well or To-Day Defined. 5." What is a real swell?" i "Men and women of tact, wealth and ,-,'iamily arc the fashionables." g, . "Does money constitute the principal re ? guirement of social success?" "It used to, but it does not carry so far in iXew York now. There are so many people with money, don't you know. Of course in '-some cases monev has bought everything." "Has money made Mrs. Bradley Martin's - success?" "Well, yon see, Mrs. Bradley Martin has been literally embraced by society. She has succeeded because she is an active worker. "She is a short, quick little womau, with a -prettv lace. She was a Miss Sherman, and J j. her lather was a famous statistician, who dealt only in first mortgage bonds. He left her an enormous fortune, much more than . people believe,probably an income of 5400. 000 a year, and she spends almost 5300,000 a vear." , . ""Is she one of th 150?" "Well, she belongs to the '400' undoubt edly," repMed Mr. McAllister, evasively. "And Mrs. Paran Stevens?" ; . "She is swell, of course, though I remem ber at a time in Boston when she was not received in society. The English people made her success. She was a very hand some woman and very correct. She Is a brilliant talker and a vary daring one." Will Fill the Kyes, No: the Stomach. ee -"""Is she of the chosen few?" J'I suppose so, though she does very little 2 grand entertaining. She throws open her house, and if you're a distinguished person tou can walk around it, but she rarely give6 yon anything to eat, a little appolinaris water perhaps; but that's the Parisian 6tyle of entertainment, where you talk and drink fjTupsJ' " "Has Mrs. Whitney joined the 150?" " "She. is one of the '400,' but attained her -pbkttion through her husband's position as Secretary of the Xavy." - - "Then who are the'six leaders of this new . exclusive dinner dance brigade?" "Biey are good entertainers. Let me ee; there's Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt She f" . gives an excellent dinner and I mention her first Her wines are the best to be had in Xew York. Then Mrs. Townsend Burden, next-Mrs. Ogden Mills." "And Mrs. William Astor?" fYes, I should place her the fourth in order, because her dinners are abundant and very decorative. Mrs. William D. Sloane and Mrs George Bowdoin conclude the list Mrs. Edward Cooper also gives a fine old-fashioned dinner. At any of the houses mentioned you can enjoy a dinner as good Sfctlf yon were dining with the best in Paris or London. Mrs. Clrveland Is Not In It "How is it that Mrs. William Astor had 550 people present at her last ball?" "ft was an annual affair, you see, and the e-'Astors have always been extremely polite. Mrs. John Jacob Astor -was even more lib ' 'era! than her daughter." , "" '-"Has Mrs. John Jacob Astor, Jr., joined - lhe 150?" "She is a fcociat success of course. Her beauty and her manners have made her a creat society star. I doubt, however, whether she has much social ambition, and Jo.not think that she would take up the position which her mother-in-law holds to- 'dav in society. It takes a woman with Teat administrative ability." "r" '"Is Mrs. Grover Cleveland a society lyomar., in your opinion.' far 7A&ouiu. unruly &. B,iclt her alone, that's & so. Society jnst I don't think her . husband desired any great social excitement for her in New York. She never dressed for , it, don't yon know." "Then political success does not always lead to social success?" "Itarely. Fashionable people, however, take an enormous interest in political men. D. B. Hill is looked upon by society in New York as a veritable Napoleon. His political talents are.a wonder to them, but he has not been invited to their houses." A LITTLE GIKL'S FATAL SMOKE. Her Clothes Ignite From Her Cigarette and She Is Cremated. Kingston, N. Y., Feb. i0. Special One of the most frightful accidents that has taken place here in some time -occurred to day in that section of the city known as Ponckhockje. Mrs. Mary Doolan stepped out of her home for a few minutes, leaving her 9-ycar-old daughter Josie in the kitchen. Scarcely had she reached the yard before she heard the screams of her child, and rushed back only to find her enveloped in flames. She seized the little one in her arms and endeavored to extinguish the flames, when, almost in a moment, she was herself on fire. Half frantic, she rushed for the street, dropping the child in her haste. Mrs. Doolan made her way across the street to the honse of a neighbor, where she sank un conscious to the floor. Her head, arms and hands were badly burned and blistered. , The charred remains of Josie were found on the kitchen floor. They were in such condition as to necessitate immediate burial. Mrs. Doolan is in a critical condi tion to-night and her recovery is doubtful. The real cause of the accident is not known. It is said that the child had made a paper cigarette and was smoking it when her clothes caught fire from a spark. The father is a hard working man in the employ of the Newark Lime and Cement Company.
