claimed: every time he saw him
There's that blackguard."
1t was after the gift of he silver
fox set and ermine coat that Thaw and
the girl went abroad. They STAYED N
a hotel in London, and one morning
when he came down stairs he found
White in the corridor. Thaw at once

FOUND A GOLD "HYPO.'
There were frequent q~uarrels, which
reached a climax when she found a
gold hypodermic syringe in the bath-
tub. She e about saying Thav
was a dope ,iend," and that she was
tired Of him and would return to New
York.
Thaw saw that the girl was drifting
away from him, and in order not to
lose her he offered to marry her. The
I'Offer caused the girl to stick to the
Pittsburg man like f%ypaper. She knew
how he disliked White, and she joined
with him in applying vile names to tfu,
architect. Whenever they sat at 4 Ia
Bile with friends and Whites name
was mentioned. she joined with Thaw
in d~enOuncing him.
Though before the offer Of marriage
she had told friends on the other side
that she was disguised with Thaw. she
realized that the marriage would bring
| her into one of the w%ealthiest families

to this city. Here the haze surrounded
their marital tatus caused them to be

GOT HER PICTURE FROM WHITE.
1t was after her return from the sec
m trip that the Nesbit girl first saw
White. Thaw felt nettled because
the architect had many pictures of the
girl in his studio. He wanted her to
get these photographs, and sooH after
her return from abroad she visited
| White and demanded the pictures.
They were turned over to her without
hestitancy. That was the only time
the girl spoke to the architect after
Thaw took her to Europe.
After the marriage in Pittsburg, the
tThaws resumed their gay career In the
| Tenderloin. They entertained their old
friends, and ThaW made it apparent
he still hated White. He told openly
! Of carrying a pistol, and threatened
the architect. Practically all the
| friends of the couple knew Thaw bad
! hired detectives to trail White in order
| to get evidence to send him to jail.
| Mrs. Thaw, it is said, continually g0ad-
! ed her husband and kept his hatred
of the architect at fever heat. 1t was
! apparent to the friends of the couple
? that a tragedy was impending. They
warned White to be careful, but the
! architect replied that he did not think
Thaw was capable of harming any
one.
, That was the situation on the day Of
the murder. Time, instead of dimln-
ishing Thaw's hatred of White, caused
it to grow stronger, until it eliminated
in the murder. It also caused Harry
Thaw. instead Of spending the Fourth
in Joyous revelry, to buy ice cream and
; cake for his fellow-prisoners in the
Tombs. The ice cream incident W2s
the only diversion yesterday.-NeW
