Mrs. Stokes' husband, Walter C. Stokes, was a New York stockbroker; Mrs. Schiff's husband was Mortimer L. Schiff (1877-1931), a banker active in the Boy Scouts of America. Same location, same day (you can see Mrs. Billings and Mrs. Johnson on the left, in the same hats as this photo):

@Pony Meredith: Your photo appears to show the same venue, but on a different date. This photo was taken on 7/10/13; yours is dated a month earlier, 6-9-13.

Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt, Pres. Theodore Roosevelt's second wife and first lady. Judging that this is from the same set as a photo of Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt Jr., it is no earlier than 1910. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edith_Roosevelt

Wystan said:
No, that would be Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Junior -- wife of the former President's son. She was the former Eleanor Butler Alexander. They were wed on June 20, 1910. This photo was taken on June 17, 1913. [Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt would have been 52 in 1913.]

New York society bluebloods in attendance at the horse races at Belmont Park, on June 17, 1913. A story in the New York Times on the 18th reported the roster of winners that day: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=9406E...
