az am informed by Mr.. Olcott and.
Mr.. Gruber that the interview with the,
latter in one of last evenings papers,
quoting him (Gruber) to the effect that
I am now insane and that a lunatic'
commission would be appointed TO
demonstrate that fact has no founda-
ton whatever; that Mr.. Gruber never
made such statement and that no
such course is contemplated.
"Mr. olcbtt further tells me that he
did not 20 to Philadelphia for the pur-
pose of seeing or inquiring about Har-
riet Thaw or her alleged insanity; ana
that his visit had nothing whatever TO
do with the question Of my mental con-
dition or that of any member OF my
family"
The statement was signed with the
initials H. K. T." When asked II he
had anything further to remark, Thaw
said: .
"That statement embodies all that l
have to say" ..
Despite the rapid fire Of questions
hurled at him by the reporters Tnaw
remained smiling but non-committal
during four or five minutes he was
with the press representatives.
