DESIRES HER TESTIMONY.
District Attorney After Mother Of Mrs.
Harry ThaW.

New York, July 1.-THE presence
Of Mrs. William Holman, mother Of
Mrs. Harry X. Thaw, is said to be
much desired at the district attorneys
office. According to the report the at.
torneys who are at work on the pros
ecution's case would like to question
Mrs. Holman particularly with regard
to one OF the trips to Europe made by
Thaw and Evelyn Nesbit. According
to one story while Thaw and the girl
were in London al appeal was made
to the American embassy to break up
the relations between Thaw and Eve.
Ign Nesbit and have the girl sent
home. This appeal, it is said, was
made by Stanford White, who acted
on the request of Mrs. Holman. 1t
was at this time, the story goes, that
Mrs. Holman was much prejudiced
against Thaw.
1t is said that if Mrs. Holman
should come within the territory COW
cred by a subpoenae from the district
moned to his Office.
James L.. Lederer of Philadelphia,
who was manager of the "Wild Rose"
company when Mrs. Thaw was a men,
Der of the chorus, was examined by
Assistant District Attorney Garvan.
Lederer is said to have told Mr.. Gar
van that he had long believed Thaw
to be insane. This opinion, he said,
was based upon his observations of
Thaw during the time the Wild
Rose company was playing in this
city. In this connection he mentioned
several incidents in which ThaW was
the central figure.
