city, is the belief Of George W. Led.
erer- manager of the Cclo.ial Sbeater
in Chica go.
Manager Lederer, who was Mrs.
Thaw's employer when as Evelyn
Nesbit she took part in his production
of the Wild Rose, has known her ever
since she was Is years old, and he has
also known Stanford White and his
career.
He insists that the interest which
the murdered contractor took in the
young woman was that OF a good
friend who desired to see her art and
| ability developed and recognized and
who was her benefactor when hel
friends were less numerous than the
were when her career was at its
zenith.
Manager Lederer is emphatic in his
declaration that he can not believe
that the dead architect ever did any
thing which might give her husband
grievance against him.
Stanford White was one of the fin.
est men who ever lived" said Mr..
Lederer at his home, 1900 Indiana ave-
nue.. today. when White first met
Evelyn Nesbit she was In New York
with her mother and she was taking
part in the Flor5dora at The Casino.
She was then girl of Is. White
was attracted by her dazzling beauty
and became interested in her future
when he saw how she and her mother
struggled along.
"Thaw was known to be of jeal-
GUS disposition and it may be that
when his wife gave outward expires.
sion of her regard for White in his
presence he resented it and murdered
the man through whose generosity
Evelyn Nesbit was able to place her.
self above hardship
while it is true that White was
fond of the company of stage folks.
continued Mr. Lederer, st is also
true that he was benefactor to many
and that he was generous and kind
and ready to aid many from a purely
unselfish standpoint.
His interest in Mrs. Nesbit and in
her daughter Evelyn was that of a
true friend He helped them finan-
cially, and he took personal interest
in aiding the girl to climb the ladder
of success.
"The generosity and kindness of
White toward Evelyn Nesbit and her
mother naturally evoked gratitude on
the part of the struggling girl, and
she would naturally even after her
marriage look upon White as a good
friend and treat him as SUCH
Mrs. Thaw was born in Pittsburg
Her father, WHO died there about six
years ago, was prominent lawyer.
He was considered wealthy during his
lifetime, but after his death IT was
found that his estate was worth very
little. Her mother was forced to
seek employment, and she took her
daughter with her to Philadelphia for
that purpose. Evelyn was then IA
years old.
The girls remarkable beauty at
tracted the attention of art critics and
she became model for the leading
artists. She remained in Philadelphia
for about a year and then with her
mother went TO New York. After a
few months posing as model in New
York, Evelyn Nesbit, then a little
over Is years old, was engaged in the
Florodora company at the Casio.
1T was then that she met Stanford
White. The following year | engaged
her with the wild Rose" which was
in Chicago at the Illinois about three
years ago. She is of slight build,
but the beauty of her face is remark
able. She is a decided brunette. Her
mother married Pittsburg broker
about two years ago."
