curl does not make a remote 'ls 859011_20181011*_859011.txt' therefore
curl try to find the
file '859011_20181011*_859011.txt' which does not exist.

You can try to download the files in two steps.

# 1.) get filenames
FILES=$(curl -sSk -u UN:PW sftp://hostname/icaps/ | awk
'/859011_20181011.*_859011.txt/ {print $9}' )

# 2.) Download files
for i in ${FILES}; do
   curl -sSk -u UN:PW -o local_${i} sftp://hostname/icaps/${i}
done

There are a lot other possible ways to this steps above ;-)

I hope you get the idea.
