WHITE PAYS WAGES OF SIN
WITH HIS O WN LIFE’S BLOOD
AFTER CAREER OF REVELS\
Studio in Tower of Madison Square Garden,|
Overlooking Spot Where He Was Slain,
Often the Scene of Midnight Orgies.
By CHARLE8 SOMERVILLE.
By Private Leased Wire.
New York, Juno 28.—Death ending any man's life can never be a more
terrible figure than ah It standa now at the coffin of Stanford White.
It Is not only the manner In which It came upon him, although that
was very terrible; a man of largo renown shot -down as *n unclean crea
ture, kicking his legs grotesquely under a wine-stained table, blood spots
on his white shirt front, clutching with wild hands at his throat with a
heavy, whitening face upturned In the glare of a thousand lights, to show
hundreds of strangers' eyes his death agony, while for hla dirge there waa
the bitter tinkle of silly music. •
LIGHT ON THE 8ECRET WAYS O' LIFE.
It waa not only the manner that death' came tp him, but even more
terrible la the aspect It has since assumed. It has taken a torch with a
relentless light Into the secret ways of the life of this man of fame. It
has turned him Infamous. Its gaunt fingers have stripped hla bier of the
laurels that his genius won and draws over his white, dead face a cloafc of
obllquy. ,
Madison Square Garden—the greatest monument of his high talents—
has been disclosed as his den of sin and shame, even as It was here In the
great building that hla genius had wrought death struck him down as he
sat with his bleared eyes conning the supple, lithe young dancera of the
chorus—ao like so many other choruses out of which he had, with
wealth, hla distinction, hla subtleties bom of keen knowledge of the world,
lured to hla side with villainous Intent so many foolish young creatures,
NONE EXEMPT FROM SCANDAL-TIPPED TONGUE.
And even among men of easy mode of life, In which a code of morals
has no real place—even among thla sort, "death puts Stanford White In
contempt. If among them he waa not in contempt before. For year In and
year out he had wielded a scandal-tipped tongue against hla very' victims.
He had no remorse, and he had no pity. They might go afcay from him,
very young and very shame-stricken, trying to start life anew.
They might advance to first places In the theatrical world. They
might strive hard with honest ambitions and win. Or some decent fel
low might lead one of them to the altar. He did not watch auch careers
silently. Over the cafe or club tablea It was hla sport to move his sneer
ing, heavy lips In recounting the past, and his tongue never faltered when It
reached the mention of a woman's name. And If he ever kept silence,
he used such silence as a whip to lash at will some wretched young creature
back Into his vicious slavery,
HE HAD WON GREAT FAME AND SUCCE88.
To those only who knew his greatness, he was a fine, splendid figure—■
a man of fame and success In the ripeness of years—Stanford White, son
of a celebrated Journalist, brilliant In hla architectural studies at the Uni
versity of New York, and In hla travels through France and Italy, the tal
ented pupil of Richardson, whom be surpassed; the moat artistic member
of the great firm of McKIm, Mead & White, the deslgnor of the Imposing
Madison Square Garden, the lofty, sample Washington arch, and many other
noted buildings.
And again, fortunate Stanford White, his wife,'a atately handsome worn
an, formerly a Miss Elisabeth Smith, of 8mlthtown, Long Island, and an
heiress; his son, a sturdy young fellow nt college; and again, prominent
Stanford White, with his name on the roster of the best clubs of the city,
nnd his name always on the Invitation llsta of great banquet* and other
functions.
In an amastng manner, he auccessfully lived hla life of fine labor and
his life of Iniquity, Promptly at 9 o'clock every morning he waa at his of
flee: He worked easily, yet vigorously and thoroughly. Then he rolled In
his carriage or his automobile—seldom to his home—almost Invariably to tho
haunts whither Ills vlclousncss dragged him. His strong ( body nnd brain
paid the enormous tax; without weakening.
HAD A STUDIO IN HIGH TOWER.
The first night found him present In a theater In correct attire, the
leader of a group of wealthy men who are pleased to be termed bon vl
vants. From the front of the house he . went back to the wings. No
manager blocked his way to securing Introductions to such prstty women
as his eye fell keenly upon. The more youthful one might be, the keener
was his glance. '
With hla wealth, hi* Influence In theatrical circles, his lavish gifts, his
masterful Intellect and magnetic manner, the luxurious allurements of his
magnificent atudlo In Madison Square Garden, the man was temptation In
carnate.
High In the tower was his studio. It waa safely to be used for any
evil purpose. He was a director of the building. HI* word to sny subordi
nate was law. He brought poor young creature* there—girls recruited
from the humble homes of the city, and saw them* bewildered In the big
square room with Its soft red lights. Its beautiful pictures In glinting,
heavy golden frames; Its marvels of tapestries and rugs, Its silk-draped
lounging spots, Its wlne-stocksd ibuffet. In a part of It he had a cunningly
contrived set of mirrors that showed his visitors from every point of view.
Far above the city, far from the reach of Its noise, beyond sight and hear
ing, White had his den.
WOMAN BELABORED HIM WITH AN UMBRELLA.
Sometimes he took crowds there. There they held orgies. White and
auch men as he drew around him In the diversions he Invented, had a club
In Twenty-eighth atreet. It was called the -'Chorui Girls' Club.”
Yet all the time White had gone unscathed up to a week ago. It waa
at bight, In front of the New York theater. While, with his high hat,
crushed down, his claw-hammsr tails flying, sped away to escape a woman
who belabored him with an umbrella—a woman,scalded by his freely ut
tered scandal.
Beautiful Evelyn Nesblt Thaw came to New York a few days ago with
her young husband. White laughed knowingly to his cronlss. They re
membered the affair when Evelyn Nesblt was a little girl among the studios
of New York; of when she appeared In th« choruses; of White's Interest
In her.. '
And White sneered at the maddened young husband who came to him.
And he sneered at the threats that the erased and desperate young fellow
ottered. He plied the youAg woman with letters that made her shudder.
Then' the tragedy.
