THRILLING AND TREMEND-
GUS STORY" rs PREDICTED.
WHITE SUSPECTED TROUBLE
Told Detectives He Had Done the
Woman No Harm and His Interest
in Her Had Been Purely of a Fa-
therly Nature.

New York,-With the police, Cor
oner's and District Attorneys Office
working practically day and night to
learn all the details Of the events
which led up to he murder of Stand
ford White an architect of national
renown by a muli-millionaire, Harry
K. Thaw, and all sources silent as to
their discoveries, there is much room
for speculation on all phases of the
ease. The motive for murder, the pO-
lice believe, was outlined in Thaw S
brief statement, that his home had
oeen ruined, and with this as a basis
Of Investigation, detectives are look
ing up Thaw's habits in New York
and investigating the many stories
told and published concerning White s
conduct.
Mrs. Thaw told her husbands law
yer that she had received many letters
from Mr.. White since her marriage.
One Of these she threw on the dressing
table a few days ago, and her husband
found it and vowed vengeance on the
writer.
While the finding of this Letter may
IA zen the direct cause Of the trag-
ea M law's jealousy, and hatred of
Wa1sa were of long standing, and the
yora- man made frequent threats to
XII ms supposed rival.
The declaration attributed to coun-
Iel for Harry X. Thaw that Mrs. Thaw
will be the principal witness for the
defense at her husbands s trial, and
chat she will tell thrilling and tre-
nendous story, opening the eyes of
;he New Workers and people all over
he world" attract the greatest atten-
ion of any of the published develop
nents in the case.
Second interest was in the state
nent of a private detective that he
md others had been hired some time
ago by White to learn the identity Of
several men whom he believed to be
shadowing him. The detective says
he found the men were employed by
Thaw to watch White. When he re-
ported these facts to his employer, he
says Mr.. White exclaimed: ''I sus-
pected it all along. This man Tha~
is crazy. He imagines That [ have
done him some wrong"
Mr.. White talked along in this strain
sor some time, denying that he had
wronged Thaw in any way and declar
ng that his early friendship for the
Nesbit girl who became Mrs. Thaw
was purely fatherly interest.
The detective added that White had
talked of appealing to the authorities
TO have Thaw's detectives taken off
his lrail.
Attorney David 7. Watson, who rep
resented the United States Govern
ment in the Northern Securities case,
will likely figure largely in the defense
of Harry K. Thaw.
MI. w dtS0n, VINO Is now IN LOndOn,
England, has been cabled to meet the
defendants mother, Mrs. VIM. Thaw
when she reaches England, and it is
very probable that he will sail for
New York to take part in the ease.
Two Pittsburg detective agencies
have been retained in the case, it is
said and will consult with tbe priso-
hers New York attorneys.
