SHE BLAMES THAW'S WIFE
No Friendship for the Girl from the
Slayer's Mother.

New York, July 10.-From an au-
thoratative source it is learned I day
that another serious rupture has oc-
CURED between Mrs. William Thaw
and her daughter-in-law, Evelyn Mes
bit Thaw, and that no matter how
the present case against Harry Thaw
turns out, the young woman will have
to look out for herself The elder
Mrs. Thaw blames the girl alone for
the perdicament her son is in.
Harry Thaw is entitled to only 3d.
400 a year from his fathers estate,
and no matter whether he goes TO pri-
son, to an asylum or to an electric
chair, he will never be placed in eon-
troll of his share of the estate. No mat
ter if his wife secures all of what he
is entitled to, it will not be over that
figure.
A bitter quarrel between the two
women came just before the elder Mrs.
Tbaw sailed for Europe. She had
been out calling one afternoon IN
Pittsburg and returning suddenly to
Lyndhurst, found Evelyn, Harry and
an actress friend in Harry's den smok-
ing cigarettes, drinking wine and de-
porting themselves in manner which
greatly shocked the elder woman II
was on account of this affair, it is
said, that Harry Thaw did not ac-
company his mother to Europe. Had
he gone with her, as she wanted him
to do, the crime would not have been
committed.
Pittsburg friends of the Thaws de-
clare the breach has been so widened
by the last interview that it can n'v-
err be bridged. 1t was quite notice
able that Mrs Thaw, the elder, when
she visited her son in the Tombs, did
not 90 with her daughter-in-law, and
that she did not speak to her wien
she saw her in the Jail corridor.
