MRS. THAW CRITICISED.
Her Mother Had to Appeal to Stanford
White For Assistance.

New York, July 23.-Testimony Of
the most damaging kind against Har-
ry K. Thaw will be brought out at his
trial as a result Of various letters
which Mrs. Holman, mother of Evelyn
Nesbit Thaw, wrote to Stanford White.
his victim She told the architect Of
Thaw's cruelty toward her daughter.
how the girl loathed the man with
whom she was living, and she begged
White to do something to stop the
scandal which was caused by the open
Haunting of the relations between her
daughter and Thaw. These letters
were turned over by White to his law
yer, and the district attorney VIII re-
ceive them. The Holman letters have
been published in a New York newspa-
per
One of the strongest features of the
letters of Mrs. Harry Thaw's mother is
the light in which they place the
daughter. In fully twenty epistles to
White the mother complained that her
daughter had acted the part of an in
CRATE, that she had left her mother
penniiess and compelled Mrs Holman
to appeal to the charity of the archi-
tect for sufficient money on which to
live. While the Nesbit girl and Thaw
were spending more than $1,000
month the mother of the girl was left
to starve SO far as the daughter was
concerned
In strange contrast to Thaw was the
conduct of White, as revealed by Mrs.
Holman's letters. The architect, al
though the Nesbit girl was with Thaw,
helped Mrs. Holman and her son finan-
cially and continued to do so for more
than year after the girl had left
him.
