Philadelphia, June 28.-To prove his
theory that the sting of a bee is E

Glynn permitted himself to be stung
by 100 insects which had been stirred
up to frenzy. This heroic demonstra-

perts from all parts of the East and
some OF the near Western states had

whose business was raising bees Nc
Glynn accidentally upset hive When
the bees were through with him he
was unacceptable. Oddly enough
the next day he noticed that his rheu-
matism had disappeared. 4. ST III
McGlynn consulted a physician and
was informed that the poison from
the bees probably had acted as an
antidote to the uric acid In the blood.
When q recurrence of the disease

the many stories told and published
concerning Stanford Whites conduct
Thaw, advised by some of the most
prominent lawyers of New York and
Pittsburg, is silent Mrs. Thaw is
with friends, ready to respond to a
call from the district attorneys Office.
Perhaps the most interesting develop
ment was the announcement that Mrs.
Thaw told her husbands lawyers that
she had received many letters from
Mr.. White since her marriage One
Of these she threw on her dressing
table a few days ago and her HUSBAND
found it and vowed vengeance on the
writer. r-
While the finding of this letter may
have been the direct cause of the
tragedy Thaw's jealousy of and hatred
for White were of long standing and
the young man made frequent threats
to kill his supposed rival. ...
Early Hearings Purely Formal.
Evidence of the motives that led to
the murder is not to come out for a
time in any public proceeding and
there is remote chance that it viii
not come out at all, it is said. The
coroner's inquest will be formal in
quiry into the cause of death. Evelyn
Nesbit will not testify In the coronerss
court, but will go before the grand
jury, whose sittings are secret An
Indictment will undoubtedly be re-
turned, the plea Of insanity will be put
in and inquiry into the sanity of the
prisoner will be the first proceeding.
That may take month and the result
Is at present matter of conjecture.
Burr Mcintosh, for many years
friend Of Harry K. Thaw, who was
with him just before the shooting, is
positive the man was insane. He

THAN INDICTED FOR MURDER

New York, June 28The coroner's
jury brought in verdict that Stan
ford White came to his death by gun
shot wounds inflicted by Harry K.
Thaw. The most important testimony
at the inquest was given by Lionel
Lawrence, stage director at the Madi-
son Square roof garden theatre.
Lawrence said that Immediately after
the shooting Mrs. Thaw rushed up to
her husband and throwing her arms
around his, neck said:s Never mind
Harry, will stick to you through
thick and thin" Thaw turned to the
crowd which surrounded them and
said sThat = = ruined my wife and
I got him, I fixed him for it, Later
in the day the grand jury returned an
Indictment against Thaw. Il.
New York, June 2S.-It is believed
that the defense of Harry K Thaw,
confined in the Tonlbs on the charge
of killing Stanford White, was de-
cided upon at conference between
former Judge Olcott, Frederick Della
field and Mrs. Harry K. Thaw. At the
close of the conference Mr.. Olcott
declined to make any statement, but
he let it be understood that there has
been no change in the plan to put in a
plea that Thaw is insane. Mr.. Olcott
said he had not seen the letters from
White which Mrs Thaw turned over
to Mr.. Delafield, but he knew their
import and believed they would aid
the defense. -5..-.E -
After this conference Mrs. Thaw
went to the Tombs prison, where she
had a talk with her husband, remain
ing about an hour. -, ..- -
The alienists who examined Thaw
during the day announced that the
prisoner had declined to answer any
| of the questions which they asked
him. Thaw's reason for refusing to
reply to the questions was that his
counsel was not present Finally
Judge Olcott was summoned, but even
then Thaw declined to submit to ex-
!, animation. Judge Olcott said: /. zs
81 can't understand 1t, AS his legal
adviser have no objection to an ex-
animation as to his mental condition
