USED FALSE NAW1E
Banker Alleged to Have Posed
as iho Husband of a
Mro. Leeds
SHE HAS 2-YEAR-OLD SON
Vetr York, March 17 The risi
bility of "peace without publicity" in
the James A, Stillman family nppenred
moit remote today nnd both sides in thp
banker's divorce notion evidently nrc
Setting set for a blttcr-cnd fight.
On Mrs. Btillman'a part it became
evident that efforts were not to be con
fined to defending her own reputation
nnd defeating her husband's attack on
tho legitimacy of her baby son, Guy.
An assault upon tho banker's behavior
v,as made, it transpired, in nn affidavit
obtained by Mrs. Stillmnn's lawyers
connecting the banker's name with that
of Mrs. Florence II. Leeds, formerly of
fit Eat Eighty-sixth street, present
whereabouts not disclosed.
Mrg. Leeds is represented as n woman
of humble origin and good looks, wlioe
suddeu riso from small parts in Broad
uy shows to mistress of luxurious
(own and country establishments, will
bo mndo the subject of inquiry when
the issue is Joined in court. Mrs. I.eds
1b tho mother of son, born in Sep
tember, 1018.
Coincident with the revelation of the
xlstence of this affidavit came the dec
laration thnt the defenso was possessed
of another, made by a chauffeur who
lepresentcd himself as able to Identify
Mr. Leeds and James A. Stillman, pres
ident of the National City Bank, ns one
nnd the same person.
Of interest in connection with the ex
istence of thh affidavit was the state
ment made here yesterday by n former
inatd of Mrs. leods that (tho, too, had
asserted thnt photographs of the man
she had known as Mr. Leeds nnd pub
llhed pictures of the banker depicted
tho same person.
While neither fcido made an overt
movo in tho court battle estcrdny. law
yers appeared to be less optimistic of
.bringing tho whole controversy to prl
ate conclusion thnn they had been for
j several days nnd the prospect u ns that
i Supreme Court Justice Morchauser
would be called upon to hear arguments
nn motions either the end of this week
or the first of next.
Incidentally the justice made it plain
(yesterday that there was to be no "in
camera." Taking a definite position
, against star chamber proceedings, the
I justice declared himself determined to
near nil arguments in open court after

the engineer, and its disastrous ending.
"Money cannot pay ft woman for the
loss of her name nnd her self-respect,"
Bhe said. "Money can't restore a
woman's faith in human nature. Money
cannot make up for the ordeal through
which I went baring mv very soul to
those twelve men nnd that judge and
that awful courtroom full of people. I
told things on the stand which, two
years ago, I wouldn't have told my
mother. I permitted the exhibition of
thoso pictures of myself in negligee
pictures which were, made because I
loved Mr. Stephens In such a way that
rverj thing he nsked of me was a sacred
duty.
"Do jou suppose $30,000 can pay me
for that? No.
"When I sued Mr. Stephens, I Rued
him becnusc I wanted to hurt him n
little, because he had hurt me ns only
a man can hurt a woman."
"Of course, I am grateful for this
monoy. I should bo utterly ridiculous
If I illd tint nrlmtf that If mivnna a srnnt
deal to me."
