Miss Wareham is not going to obtain

chester. Mr.. Zimmerman's son-in-law.
Yesterday the duke was in communl-
cation with his father-in-law, after which
he announced that Miss Wareham's case
would be fought to finish.
The duke asserted that he and the
duchess would stand behind Mr.. thinner
man. regardless Of what testimony was
brought out.
William II. Blymyer, Mr.. Zimmerman
counsel, has already entered general
denial Of the allegations

an apartment in West 18th ct, near
Broadway, and she was the envy OF her
friends because OF the luxurious manner
OF living. She was well known In the
neighborho6d because Of her kennels.
which were on the roof Of a garage ad-
joining her apartment.
December is the month in which she
saws Mr.. Zimmerman proposed marriage
10 her.
Her home at Elmhurst, where she now
lives, is one Of the show places OF the
town. Its furnishings include a high
powered touring automobile.
Miss Wareham said that she moved TO
the country at the suggestion Of Mr..
Zimmerman.
New York is no place for YOU she
says he told her. Go out into the coun-
try and get nice place. The city is bad,
with all these rich young mon running
around"
After spending the afternoon with
friends in New Jersey, Miss Wareham, on
her return home last night said:
THE letters I spoke Of are in the hands
of my lawyer. I can't tell what is in
them, but they will be very interesting
when read in court"
Miss Wareham and her lawyer we're
greatly disturbed at a statement attrb-
uted TO the Duke Of Manchester TO the
effect that he had received anonymous
letters threatening him if his father-in-
law did not give up money. Both de-
clared they did not have to resort to
these methods, and they wanted the pub
lie TO know it.
The Duke Of Manchester, who is at the
Ritz-Carlton, remarked yesterday, just
before starting for the ball game:
II have been in communication with
Mr.. Zimmerman regarding the case, and
it has been decided 10 fight the suit to a
finish. Mr.. Zimmerman is responsible
only TO his daughter, the duchess, and
myself, and he has our assurance that
we win stand behind him regardless OF
what testimony may be brought out"
No date has been fixed for the trial,
but II is not probable that II will take
place before the fall.
