LAWYERS FOR THAW
SETTLE TROUBLES
Important Papers in Case Are
Turned Over to Personal
Attorney of Defendant.

NEW YORK, July 19.-Peace has ap-
parently been declared among the law
yers who at various times have repre-
sentcd Harry K. Thaw since the night he
shot and killed Stanford White on the
Madison Square Garden roof garden.
Former Judge Olcott Of the firm Of Black,
Olcott Gruber & Bonynge today turned
over 10 Clifford w. Hartridge. Thaw's
personal attorney. all the papers he had
in the case with the exception of the
reports of private detectives which have
been made to him since the murder was
committed, AS a reason for retaining
these Judge Olcott said there was ques-
tion in his mind as TO whether they be-
longed 10 Thaw or 10 the person who
paid for them. He did not indicate who
the person was who paid for the detect
ives services
Will Dismiss the Writ.
The turning over of the papers by
Judge Olcott will undoubtedly result in
a dismissal Of the writ issued against
his firm yesterday at the instance of
Mr.. Hartridge TO show cause why the
papers in the case should not be relin
quished TO Thaw's present counsel. The
writ is returnable tomorrow,
Justice MCLEAN in the Supreme court
today heard arguments on the applca-
ton of Thaw's counsel for an absolute
District Attorney and the grand jury TO
stop the taking of testimony against
Thaw without the prisoner being repre-
sented. Decision was reserved
Wife Tells Life Story.
Mrs. Harry Thaw, after visiting her
husband in the Tombs today, went TO
the Office of Mr., Hartridge and made au-
other long affidavit covering a history Of
her life since the time she came to New
York. Mrs. Thaw had previously made
such statement 10 Mr.. Olcott.
Mr. Hartridge called on Thaw late this
afternoon. When he came out OF the
Tombs he said:
There Is not much more i can say
at this time. We have all the necessary
papers and certain letters that were In
the Office OF Judge Olcott. and | believe
that now everything will move along
smoothly Harry is In a good frame OF
mind and apparently glad that his legal
affairs have been Strengthened out at
last"

The Royal Insurance Co. of England
and the Aetna Insurance Co. of Hart
ford are making records that astound
the world in the settlement Of losses at
San Francisco. Up to Aug. 2 the
Royal had adjusted 1850 claims and
paid s~3.l48,35o of its losses, while the
Aetna, a close second. had adjusted
about 1900 claims and paid nearly
100000 of its San Francisco losses. /:
In this connection, a San Francisco
paper says:
"cities have been destroyed in the
past and the calamity to San Francisco
should have been anticipated. Com
panies' risks are PLACED in a thousand
cities and they ought to be in such a
position that they could pay all the
losses incurred by the burning of n
one city. The Royal of Liverpool and
the Aetna of Hartford are paving their
losses systematically and Regularly as
they do their other business.
