MRS. SIEGEL TEARS VEIL FROM
SIEGEL OPERATIONS
New York, April 1. Denying with
great heat that she wasted the money
of the thousands who trusted Henry
Siegel's bank in society climbing, de
nying that she eyer worked for Siegel
and bitterly denouncing him as faith
less even to his family, Mrs. Marie
Vaughn Siegel, through her attor
neys, issued a statement to the pub
lic. She purported to tear the veil
from Siegel's operations and to show
up the former merchant-prince as a
king of confidence men.
Mrs. Siegel today formally filed suit
for divorce. She declared she "en
deavored in every way to guard and
protect him from his own weaknesses
and his lack of consideration for the
feelings and rights of others."
''Several years ago I learned inci
dentally,'' she said, "of the crooked
dealings of Henry Siegel with the
moneys of depositors in his bank and
I immediately warned him that he
was 'facing jail.1 He raged like a
madman and treated me shamefully."
Mrs. Slegel.denied flatly that her
husband was ruined by her extrava
gance. She declared Siegel spent
"large sums of money on various wo
men of his acquaintance."
Intimation that Siegel is not '.as
near poverty as has-been believed
was also given hi the interview.
"I believe," said his wife", "that it
will ultimately be found that Mr.
Siegel has very large stock invest
ments in corporations other than the
mercantile companies directly con
trolled by him,"
