Rarity of Pearl Strings Sparkles in New York Market
Jewelers in New York dispute rumors of $100,000 to $200,000 pearl strings turning up this year. They say such sales are myths, with wealthier gifts rare and normal trade brisk. Prices for valuable pearls rise as output declines and demand grows, while everyday purchases remain common for discerning buyers.

Countess Zborowski will dispute will in New York court
A contest of the will of Countess Margaret Zborowski has moved to the surrogate's court in New York. Claimants allege the countess was unduly influenced and incapable of managing her estate. The countess, formerly Miss Margaret Carey, was tied to the Astor family through her mother and grandmother. She married twice, leaving one son and two children from her first marriage without a share. Dowager Duchess Marie Coburg-Gotha is selling her dressing room furnishings in Berlin.
