GEN. SICKLES' WIFE

Friends Also Plan to Assist
Aged Veteran.

New York, JAM 27.-If conference
that General Daniel e. Sickles is to
have today with his wife and his son,
Stanton, brings about certain conces
sions on his part, the beleaguered vet
eran will probably come happily out OF
the tangle he is in with the state be
cause of an admitted deficiency OF
$23, ,476 in his accounts as president of
the state monuments commission.
But If the general, who requested
Mrs. Sickles to talk with him, changes
his mind again he will be left to the
tender mercs5y of Sheriff Hamburger.
The concessio2 that Mrs. Sickles de-
mands of the general is that he dis

his housekeeper. II he would consen
to that the money for his Indebtedness
to the state would be forthcoming, but
he has so far refused.
With the possibility of General
Sickles voluntarily admitting the sher
If to his Fifth avenue home and the
subsequent removal of the old soldier
to quarters in the Ludlow street Jail
persons who are interested in the gen
erals behalf were thinking up ways
and means of preventing his incarcera
ton.
Comptroller William Sohmer and
Sheriff Hamburger announced that g
national fund, designed to relieve
General Sickles of his financial em
barrassment had been decided upon
that Comptroller Sohmer, who mad
the proposal, had headed the list with
$1OO,, and that the second contributor
was none other than Sheriff Harbur
