INDICTED
FOR MURDER
ThaW Goes Throw the Ordeal of
COrOner'S Jury Without
Any COmmOtiOn.

1.~1,y ~C-l17, 5uiie 20.-IIarry Ken
dali Thaw has been indicted for muir
der in the first degree in killing Stan
ford White.
The inquest was a p%erfunctory af-
fair and its verdict a foregone concIu-
sion.
Al decision to offer emotional insan-
ity as the defense Of Thaw vas reach
ed by the prisoners counsel after DR..
Allan McLane Hamilton had examined
the murderer for an hour In the Tombs.
Evelyn Nesblt Thaw was before the
grand jury, which took up its investi-
CATION of the crime Immediately at the
conclusion of the inquest. Her counsel
had previously announced that she
would refuse to testify against her hus-
band. She remained in the grand jury
room but fifteen minutes, and it was
reported that she had absolutely re-
fused to answer any questions.
A sensational development of the
day. was the statement by the district
attorneys office that White went to the
Madison Square roof garden on Mon
day night for the purpose of keeping
an engagement with two of the chorus
girls. Detectives are now looking for
these girls,
Harry Thaw was present at the in
quest. He did not seem particularly
nervous, and his color was much better
than it had been in the Jefferson Mar
ket court.
Many stories are told of alleged orgies
in Whites bachelor rooms in the Mad
ison Square tower and elsewhere at
which very young girls were present.
Anthony Comstock admits that he has
been ON more than one occasion re-
quested to inquire into Whites rela-
tons with immature girls, but says
he never found enough evidence for a
case against White.
Thaw's lawyers believe that when
the jury learns of the past of the muir
dered man it will take the view that
White received only "what was coming
to him."
With Thaw anxious to justify his
crime in court, the trial of the wealthy
Pittsburg man will be the most sensa-
tional murder hearing in the history
of this country. 1t will drag into pub
lie view not only the private lives OF
the principles, but it will give the pub
lie an insight into the doings of mer
weather. and more prominent socially
than White or Tliaw.
Among the things found on Whites
body was a gold ring the architect had
worn. It bore an engraving Of two
justified Whites arrest.

Mr.. WadswOrth sprang a surprise on

Mr.. Lamb insisted that the govern

half.
A vigorous protest against placing
any charge on the packer was made
by Mr.. Burleson TEX. The packer,
he said, would Immediately shift the

Mr.. Lever IS. o. was %applauded on

a ~RRIckLAYER'S VIEW
OF SAN FRANCISCO.

The San Francisco Call of June 81
contains an interesting letter from
Edward j.. Brandon, third vice-presi-
dent of the International Bricklayers'
and Masons' Union, to William j.
Bowen, president of~the organization.
We quote in part:
work has commenced among the
large class A buildings that were
partially damaged on the inside, and
it looks as If in the course of a few
months things will be humming. A
great effort is going to be made to
place the reinforced concrete build
ing in a class above the brick build
ing. In my opinion all failures of
brick are due to poor workmanship
and even poorer materials. There
are many brick buildings standing
and they do not show a crack any
where. There is another problem.
We will want many more bricklay-
ers; in fact, we need them now, but
cannot bring them here until we
have sleeping accommodations for
them. We have about fifty members
at present sleeping in tents, and we
are making arrangements to put up
cots in our headquarters which will
accommodate this number. ! nm re-
ceiying letters every day asking for
bricklayers from the small nearby
towns, but we have none to spare.
Santa Rosa wants twenty men, and /
presume they can work there stead
lily for a year or MORE. II men are
too scarce it is going to make brick
buildings cost too much, and this
will be another argument against
them, especially since reinforced con-
crete is cheaper. / would like you
to think over this matter, and when
there is a demand for men and we
can give them sleeping accommoda-
lions / will notify you"
The labor situation, especially with
respect to the building trades, is in
dictated by the foregoing. The fact
is that nearly every industry estab-
lished here is rehabilitating itself as
fast as money can do it, and many of
their workers have left the city. The
reconstruction of San Francisco will
take men of muscle and skill, and
their employment in large numbers
will contribute to the prosperity
which follows activity in the trades.
