FAMILY SKELETONS GALORE MA Y BE DR A GGED TO LIGHT STALLINGS SUIT IS BEGUN FI BASEBALL MANAGER'S WIFE WANTS ALIMONY Defendant Not Present When Suit Is Called Before Judge Pendleton. BY CHARLES SOMERVILLE. New York. June 29.—The ringing shots from the revolver of Harry Thaw that sent Stanford White to his death have sounded sickening fear to other men In Ne'w York—men- aa wealthy as White was; men as prominent; men as talented. It has set a hundred or more Doctors Jekyl trembling for fear of the discovery of their Misters Hyde, There are white-faced and uneasy eyes to be observed In some of the best club* of the city—faces that hereto fore were always more or less flushed with wine and whose eyes have always looked. In spite of their secret doing*, with a synlcal confidence on the world that they have deceived. Astounding -Results Threatened. The Thaw trial threatens to start the police muck rake with astounding results. In the clouds of queer sto ries that have arisen above the scene of Monday may have touched some of them In the post, but many others of those named have stood heretofore only far men occupying foremost places In many of thb nobleAt pursuits of civili sation. In these queer tales, strangely enough, the youth of New York does not appear. The men In them are of the stamp of Stanford White. They are men who have fought the fierce fight for success and Ivon It, men of distinction resting on their achieve ments and liven Tree rein. Under mlntls disordered by champagne and heavy supper*, to evsry whim—the shadier, the more alluring. Nothing Short of Brazan. In this they have been nothing short of brasen. So sure have they been of the ytrcl* of protection that their Influence and their fame had drawn around them that they have disported In all license under the high glare of the great city’s lights. Again, however, this may have been their very best concealment. It Is an old trick of criminals who have com mitted an offense against the law In New York to hide themselves—In New York. Its labyrinthlan avenues and streets. It* vast crowds make so con fused a picture that Individuals are Inst In the whirl of It. In like man ner, there have been bigamy trials In New York where men have maintained two and even three establishments for years without on establishment being cognisant of the existence of tho oth er, although all throe might be within pistol shot dlstnnce of one another. Throw Off Respectability. And so these men, sitting In dignity at the head* of their family, board* In the clty'a mansions: lecturing a son, perhaps on his wildness; chiding a daughter for some little Innocent es capade, hava thrown on their over coats and thrown off their respectabil ity and gone out where the lights blase most glaringly, the odor of perfumes Is heavy, and ribaldry rants on till dawn Is In ths sky. They fear the day of reckoning I* at |u(nd. BRIEF NEWS BY WIRE BRIEF NEWS BY WIRE.. .. FoGO;. City Lots* Canal 8trip. Buffalo, N.
