have been directing serious charges
against Miss Eleanor Earl Wilmerding.
the generals housekeeper:: When Mrs.
Sickles, who was the FIRST one looked
upon. as the one to save the general,
expressed her willingness again to
solve his trouble she made the condi-
ton that Miss Wilmerding must leave
the generals house. She declared she
would sell her jewels and beggar her
self to save the wartime hero, but she
would not do that to provide the COM
fort Of the woman she declared was
her husbands undoing.
General Sickles received this ulti-
matum from the lips of his son and
thought it over for a day. Then he de-
cided to accept the charity Of his old
foes rather than submit He shut the
doors Of his house against his wife
and son. 1t was final display of the
generals old headstrong, self willed
pride.
The picture Of the general presented
herewith has a sinister suggestion IN
view Of the recent technical arrest, but
in reality it represents happy mo-
ment in the generals life. 1t was TAX
en- at q memorial celebration some
time ago and shows the general being
assisted by q policeman.
The son, who has shown such grim
antagonism to his father and has ut
tered repeated stories OF the alleged
sins Of the latter after the recent trou-
Bile, renewed his attacks with fercer
anger. He declared his father had car
ried on an improper love affair with
a prominent New York society woman
for over eighteen years and had sQuan-
dered thousands Of dollars on her, as
well as upon Miss Eleanor Earl Will
mcrding, the housekeeper. He dis
played several letters purporting to
have been written by the general to
the society woman.
Finally he declared he would expose
the society woman and regain some OF
the fortune which was squandered
upon her and which was properly his
patrimony in common with his sister.
He went so far as to say threats had
been made upon his life by brother
Of the woman he was attacking.
A servant in the house, speaking fol
the general, recently said:
"The general says that Stanton is an
ungrateful son. Neither the general
nor any one else dear to him cares 4
rap what this ungrateful son says
The people who know the general are
standing by him, and no one holds him
responsible for what this ungrateful
son says. Letters are coming from all
over the country, showing sympathy
with him" ,
The letters which Stanton Sickles re.
ferred to, he declared, he recognized
as being in the handwriting Of the 80.
ciety woman whose alleged letters and
those Of his father to her, Stanton has
been giving out.
IL am not afraid" he said. ''and
wont cease from giving out letters un-
til the housekeeper who squandered
my fathers fortune IL driven from his
home. l am going to see my lawyer

General Sickles was adjudged by
men who VIC his subordinates on the
battlefield or their sons to be unworthy
Of membership In the Loyal Legion. q
secret military organization, in 1911.
His application for membership was
met with blackball, thus forever de-
priving him Of the privilege Of belong
Ing to the organization. 1t was the
second time the veteran had sought ad-
mittance to the Loyal Legion, but he
withdrew the other time, about nine
years ago, on the advice OF his friends.
It seems from the result OF the re-
cent ballot that the animosity stirred
up in the Loyal Legion Mt that time
has not died in the intervening years.
Many more new members have been
accepted in the organization since 1902,
and necessarily they must have been
more or less unacquainted with the
feud that almost rent the New York
commandery Of the legion. However
the humiliation later is more keen. If
the general wished to accept it so, than
It was in his former attempt. Then his
name was withdrawn because Of the
storm it aroused; In the later attempt
the old warrior has been rejected abso.
