DAHLGREN ACCUSED OF
BRUTALITY ID CHILDREN
Evidence of Cruel Treatment
Prompts Court to Deny His
Right to See Them.
ELDEST DAUGHTER CHOKED
Mrs. Dahlgren Fled to Europe
in Terror with Eight Chil?
dren When She Be?
gan Suit.
The first details ol th.- home hf,. r,t
Eric B, Dahlgren, Mrs. Denigren and
hi r children. Involving alleged brutality
und Ineobrietj by the bead of the fam?
ily, became public yesterday through
the Tiling of affidavits in the Supreme
<vurt. Mis. Dahlgren obtained a di
vorce from her husband, but because ol
the triiil or th- case before ? > referee
not all the details wore obtainable.
\fter the interlocutory decree, Dabi
aren applied to the Supreme Court for
it modification <>f tie- decree, so that he
would h.- permitted t" se.- his eight
< hilaren at convenient times. The] are
no\v in Europe with their mother. Jns
tlce BIJur <ieni.<l the motion.
Because Mrs. Dahlgren is abroad, the
affidavits were made by Mrs. Josephine
Drexel Emmet, a steter ?' Mrs Dabi*
(ren, ani aflea Cornelia Redmond.
"Terrible When Drunk." Said Child.
Mr-. Emmet told ..f her own knowl?
edge ? ; the yeara of anguish which sh"
.1.1 tin children suffered at th'- hands
..: Dahlgren. tollina: of one occaaien
when he choked his eldest daughter,
Lucy, now twenty-one years old, with?
out any canee, On tins any, aa on
many others, mid afra. Emmet, Dahl
gr.-n was Intoxicated. The affiant
quoted Joeephlne, the ten-year-old
daughter of the Dahlgrene, as eeylng:
"Father is terrible when he la drunk,
:ui?J he i? (irr.nk most of the time."
The normal happiness and geyetj "i
the ciuifir. n always subsided as aoun
as DoJllgn D entered the hOUBC at No.
'812 Ifadlaou avenue, said Mrs. Emmet,
and they would g>> up to th' ir i" .in?
to a\oid their father, it was larguly
through her fear for the saf> ty Of h.-r
?elf and children thai Mr.-. Dahlgren
got u divorce and saii'd tor Europe on
the day tiie papen were served m th ?
divorce suit, taking the eight children
with her.
Mrs. Emmet said. "1 n<-\.-r aaw ??
woman .if refinement and m social po?
sition so frightened as she was at the
beginning <<f this action." Mr-. Dahl?
gren returned from Europe to pr.
? r,te her suit hefore the f feree. She
was accompanied bj Miss Lucy D
gren. They went i-a^k to Europe after
the hearing.
Mrs. Emmet w< nt on to ?*? thai ..
the court desired direct Informatioi
the "frightful performancea" ot Dahl?
?ren in th. familj circle, sh" would
- :gg?-st that th'- court send fr>r Mil
I Dahlgren and the family nurse to civ.
such details.
Mischief Feared as Motive.
sh- expressed the i.eiirf that th?
plication "f Dahlgren for permission to
see his children was actuated lern by
paternal affection than by "unpaternal
I mischief making." Bhe said that iwo
years ago one Setoi, Henry w.i:- a i aller
at the Dahlgren hum', when alisa
I Dahlgren was juat entering society.
He roid Mrs. Emmet that Dahlgren
had spoken to If. BT) about his own
daughter in ;. way that wa "too vile
to repeat."
, The Dahlgrei family Is widely sepa
rated in Europe. Mrs Dahlgren, Miss
Dahlgren, the two children next oldest
and the youngest child at in Rome,
Itwo others aie m convent boarding
m hoois in London and Belgium, aid

Miss Redmond said in her affidavit
! that sh" ?lined about a ?lozen times at
the home of the Pahlgrens in this city
and at Lenox. Cm most of these <
?tone, she mid, Dahlgren was obviously
, intoxicated, and t.s< d shocking lan?
guage in the presen? c of his children
On on< <.a h ?on. according to Mi.
Redmond. !i ? sal?! to his daughter f?!ga.
? twelve years old "Damn you, what
makes you s?. white? Don't you get
enough t.. eat'"' The child trembled in
fright and burs' into teara Miss Red?
