Il have had a note from Harry Thaw
asking me to call on him in the Tombs to-
morrow, and of course, ! shall 60. / Inn
agine he wants to speak to me about the
naanv conversations we had in the past
concerning the set In which Stanford White
was conspicuous
Harry Thaw came to me about eighteen
months ago-I think in January. 1905. He
said that the entertainments given in the
Madison Square tower were worthy of the
attention of the Anti-Vice Society, and he
impressed me as an earnest young man,
speaking under q great emotional strain
He did not mention the name of Evelyn
Nesbft, to whom he was not then married.
However, he gave me the names of three
very young girls and their addresses. also
tired to lease studio in the Madison Sauare
tower in order to have Mr.. Whites guests
watched. but there was a long waiting list
and made no Roadway.
For almost nine months I made every
effort to secure legal evidence against this
group of pleasure-loving men. l was I'M
successful. Last summer Mr.. White ADAM
dored his studio. l tried TO persuade the
young women, whose names young Thaw

we could even approach them.
Along with their names were the names
of three middle-aged men, who were SAID
to be Whites lieutenants. During my In

He did not seem like a crazy man, yet ne
was strikingly intense and 81 oke so feeling

II don't believe his motive in coming to

Charged With Retaining Political
Contribution Entrusted to Him.

BOSTON. Mass. June 2s-Robert G.
Proctor, former secretary to Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge. was found guilty Of larceny
In sealed verdict which was returned last
night and which was opened at today's ses-
sion OF the court. He was charged with
the larceny Of 1925 from John G. Bestgen
of Quincy. who alleged that he paid the
amount as contribution to the republican
campaign fund in 1904. giving it to Proc
tor in connection with an alleged promise
to secure for Bestgen an appointment as
consul. Sentence was deferred
The case has attracted considerable AT

money from Bestgen in 1904 and that he
turned the amount over to some one at
