MRS. THAw IN COURT.
Answers No Questions Relating Il
Tragedy.

Harry Kendall Thaw was indicted
at New York Thursday for murdsr
In the first degree for the killing of
Stanford White on the Madison
Square roof garden. His wife, Eye
lyn Nesbit Thaw, appeared as q wit
ness before the grand jury, but was
excused from giving testimony by As
sistant District Attorney Garvan and
by the jurors, who did not insist that
she should answer questions. Thaw
will plead to the indictment later No
time will be set for the trial until
District Attorney Jerome returns to
the city. In the meantime witnesses
have been summoned to appear in the
John Doe proceedings at the district
attorneys Office.
The grand jury's consideration of
the case followed an inquest before
the coroner's jury, which heard the
testimony Of several eye witnesses and
rendered a formal verdict that
Whites death had been caused by
Thaw.
The latter calmly listened to the
testimony and Wnlie the jury was out
he chatted with his counsel and po-
liceman sitting near, laughing aloud
at one stage of the conversation.
When the jury had completed its ver-
dict Thaw was recommitted to the
Tombs without bail.
Mrs. Thaw, following her appear
ance before the grand jury, crossed
the bridge of sighs and entered the
city prison to see her husband. They
talked together for long while.
When Mrs. Thaw attempted to leave
she found her way blocked by the
largest crowd. the police say, that has
ever gathered about the structure.
She was virtually held q prisoner by
the inquisitive throng for thirty min
utes, when the police reserves man
aged to clear way for her.
Stanford White was buried Thurs
day with simple ceremonies at St
James. L. l., where he had summer
home.

A WATERTowN SENSATION.
Attempt to Take Life of Prominent
Business Man. ..

An attempt to take the life of j..
Carl Southwick, business man or
Watertown and former grand chancel-
lor commander of the Knights of Py-
thias of South Dakota, was made in q
peculiar manner.
In the baseemnt of Mr.. Southwick's
block is a small furnace which is used
exclusively to heat water. In this fur
mace someone put a quantity of black
powder, and when Mr.. Southwick at
tempted to start fire in 1t he was
seriously injured by the explosion,
which blew the windows out Of the
basement and the plaster off from the
partitions.
Fortunately not one of the many
pieces of flying iron struck him so as
to infiict mortal wound, but the pow
der which blew into his face injured
his eyes severely. The motive for the
attempted killing is a mystery, and no
clew to the guilty person has been
found. .

CONGRESS AT FINISH
All BIG BILLS ARE RUSHED
THROUGH BOTH HOUSES.
Closing Hours Are Stormy-Rate Bill
Will Go Into Effect Immcdiatcly--
Meat Inspection Bin Passed--Final
Adjournment

The congressional situation at
Washington was such that congress
adjourned early saturday All Of the
appropriation bills were passed and
are ready for the signature of the
president. Only the omnibus public
building bill was in disagreement and
an adjustment Of differences was ex-
pected, The final adjournment was
taken early Saturday afternoon.
Were going home, we're going
home tomoIrom,n was in the minds of
the members OF the house Friday
when they assembled for the last real
hard days work previous to adjourn
ment.
Conference reports were considered
throughout the day, The final report
on the agricultural bill containing the
meat inspection provision was adopt
ed, the senate eventually agreeing that
the government should pay the cost
of inspection
Other matters of vital moment were
the agreement to the conference re-
port on the pure food bill, the Ohio
River and Lake Erie ship canal and
the naturalization bill. vs.,
The house at 1920 o'clock a. m.
took recess until 1885 O'Clock a. m.
The senate devoted most of its time
Friday to consideration of conference
reports, including the reports on the
railroad rate bill, the pure food bill
and the meat inspection provision Of
the agricultural bill. All we're adopt
ed during the day session.
The principal controversy was over
the rate bill when Senators Bailey and
Tillman had a heated colloquy, the
more notable because OF the warm
friendship existing between the two
senators. The controversy was on the
subject OF railroad lawyers, and Sem
ator Bailey expressed strong disap-
proval of the South Carolina senator's
views on that subject. There was also
much discussion OF the meat inspec-
tion provision. A number OF sena-
tors expressed themselves as willing
only to accept the house provisions
because 1t was attached to an appro-
priatien bill and a deadlock would
cause the failure OF the supply bill.

A special from Sioux Falls says: Az
an early hour Sunday morning uu,y
executed bond in the sum OF SZo,oVo
for the release of Mrs. Emma haui-
mann was filed with Sheriff Phiiiips
at Sioux Falls.
Through a curious mistake in lden-
tity the report Monday gained clrcu-
lation and was generally credited that
Mrs. Emma Kaufmann, accompanied
by Mr.. Kaufmann, had quietly depart
ed from the city for some small ana
remote place where they would re-
main pending Mrs. Kaufmann's trlai
at the November term Of the state cir
cuit court. The report that they de-
parted proves to be wholly unfoundeo
and was due to an official mistaking
another woman en- route to railroad
depot for Mrs Kaufman. The kau1-
manns left the county Jail at about lo
o'clock Sunday night and instead Oh
being driven to train proceeded di-
rect to their own home, where they
now are. They will remain there at
least for several weeks and perhaps
indefinitely. Their plans for the fu-
ture have not yet been formulated, put
in the meantime they will rest and
seek to recover from the serious strain
Of the past two weeks. Chief OF Police
Wade will maintain guards at the
Kaufman home indefinitely simply
as a precautionary measure.

FOB STATE DIsTILLERY.
Gov. Hoch Would Have the Convicts
Manufacture Denatured Alcohol.


Manufacture Denatured Alcohol.
A Topeka, Kan, special says: Gov.
Hoch is in favor of the establishment
of state denatured alcohol distillery
in Kansas. ''Such a distillery," said
the governor Wednesday night,
would furnish means for employing
a large number of convicts and the
courts could not declare the law in
valid on the grounds set up against
the state oil refinery measure. This
law would have the same effect that
was expected of the oil refinery meas
ure, in that 1t would reduce the price
of light and fuel to consumers.
In its fight against the Standard Oil
Company the last Kansas legislature
passed a bill providing for the estab-
lishment of a state oil refinery to be
operated by copvicts. The courts de-
slared the measure unconstitutional

Harry X Thaw entered a formal
plea Of not guilty when arraigned on
the chargeiof murder in the court Of

The plea was entered with the reser-

The announcement that the defense
will make emotional insanity the
basis for its fight for the release OF
Harry X. Thaw. in jail, indicted for
the murder OF Stanford White, set at
rest speculation on this point Friday.

Remarkable Outbreak by New York
Jews.

Z ~ IL
A wild rumor that children's throats
were being cut in the public schools
resulted in such excitement and panic
throughout the lower east side of New
York City "Wednesday that fifteen
schools, with $4,000 pupils, We're clos
ed for the day. Che trouble was caused
by operations performed on several
children the dd vbefore for the remov-
al of adenoids, a fungus growth in the
back of the throat and nasal cavity.
The operation is not dangerous one,
but the reports spread rapidly, and es-
cially among the Hebrews, and became
changed into rumors that Jewish mas
sacres We're to be repeated in this
country and a start was being made on
Hebrew children in the schools.
1t was not long until many Of the
schools were surrounded by crowds of
frantic-stricken parents bent on res
cuing their little ones from what they
believed to be Impending death. These
crowds became so threatening that
hurried calls for protection were sent
to the nearestapolice stations and all
the patrolmen available were cent out
to restore ordeE. In one instance a
police court was closed for an hour
to permit the court attendants and Of
ficiais to aid the police In protecting
neighboring school
All attempts at continuing the ses-
ssions for the day were seen to be use
less and one after another the princi-
pals decided to dismiss their pupils fol
the day.

Caught in the swiftly revolving ma

outfit, when one more revolution of
the engine meant that he would be
pulled to pieces, was the experience
of Frank Walker, young man resid-

The young man was paying out the
rope over the capstan when the wind
blew his coat on the axle, which was
extending out. In an instant the
young man had been wound around
the axle and was being whirled around
at the rate of forty times a minute.
AS the space beneath was but fifteen
inches it is miraculous that he was
not crushed into a pulp.
