THE BACCARAT SCANDAL IN LONDON.
LETTER FROM SIR WILLIAM GORDoN-CUMMING
GIVING THE DETAILS.

LETTER FROM SIR WILLIAM GORDoN-CUMMING
GIVING THE DETAILS.
Society in the United states has been deeply inter
estcd in the development Of the so-called baccaat scan
dial in London. A private letter was received in this
city on Tuesday from Sir William GOrdon- Cumming by
O friend Of the baronet, which gives a statement of the
occurrences which led to the scandal. BY this letter,
only a refecence to which can be made in public, the
impression is conveyed that Sir william was the victim
of a conspiracy plotted TO give TO a woman an oppor-
tunity to crafty her desire for revenge for some fancicd
wrong.
The story of the occurrences leading to the scandal
was written by a friend Of Sir William, and received the
baronet's Endorsement as the fairest account that could
be given. and was enclosed in the baroDet's letter. The
story in substance was as follows:
Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Wilson in September last enter
tanned for the st. Leger week at Tranby Croft a large
party Of friends, including the Prince of Wales. The
entire company engaged in playing baccarat on the
evenings OF september 8 and 8. After the return of
the party from Doncaster on the evening of the 10th
Mr.. Lycett Green, a son-inlaw Of Arthur Wilson, told
Lord Coventry in confidence that his brother-in-law,
Stanley Wilson. had detected Sir William Gordon-Cum-
ming in cheating ducing the play on the evening of the
sth. Stanley Wilson, through Mr.. Green, was also
authority for saying that the cheating had been OBJ
served by Mrs. Arthur Wilson, the hostess. Mr.. Green
told Lord Coventry that il had been agreed that other
members Of the party should watch Sir William 'or-
don Cumming during the play on the evening OF the
9th, and that Mr.. and Mrs. Green and Mr.. Levett, a
brother officer of Sir William. had undertaken this duty
with the result Of confirming what had been observed
on the evening before.
Lord Coventry was overwhelmed at hearing such seri-
Gus charges so apparently well supported by evidence.
and proceeded to take General owen Williams into his
confidence for consultation as to what might best be
done in the circumstances. Lord Coventry and General
Williams called MIR. Green before them, and caused hin
TO repeat the statements he had made previously 70
A. T..xa .LAa a. 4h,t III Nmn q
the persons who had witnessed Sir William Gordon
Cummings pactices were prepared 10 swear to what
they had seen. The consultation between Lord Gov
entry and General Williams resulted in a decision to lay
the matter before the Prince Of Wales. and to request
the Prince 10 uige upon all concerned the necessity for
absolute silence. 1t was decided, too. to recommcnd that
Sir william be compelled to sign a paper agreeing not
to touch a card again during the rest Of his life. The
story was told to the Prince Of Wales Just as Mr.. Lycett
Green had told 1t TO Lord Coventry. and the Prince also
