CONFERENCE WITH ATTOR.
NEYS IN THE CASE.

New York, June est is believed
that the defense of Harry X Thaw
confined in the Tombs on the charge
Of killing Stanford White, was de-
cided upon at conference between
former Judge Olcott, Frederick Della.
6eld and Mrs. Harry X. Thaw At the
close of the conference Mr. Olcott
declined to make any statement, but
he let 1t 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.. Delaheld, but he knew tlAir
import and believed they would aid
the defense.
After this conference Mrs. Thaw
went To the Tombs prison, where she
had 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:
Il can't understand 1t. AS his legal
adviser have no objection to an ex-
animation as to his mental condition
by the district attorneys experts. You
can put his refusal to answer down
to anything you please, obstinacy or
anything else. I cant compel him to

New York, June 28.-With the po-
lice. coroner's and district attorneys
Offices working practically day and
night to learn all the details of the
events which led up to the murder of
Stanford White by Harry X. Thaw
and all sources silent as to their dis
cOveries there Is much room for spec.
ulatiOn on all phases of the case The
motive for the murder, the police be.
Heve. was outlined In 1haw's brief
statement that his home had been
ruined and with this as basis Of in
.vestigation detectives were sent in
various directions looking up Thaw's
habits In New York and investigating
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 q few days ago and her husband
found 1t and vowed vengeance on the
writes.
While the finding OF this letter may
have been the direct cause of the
tragedy Thaws 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 a remote chance that 1t will
not come out at all, 1t Is said. The
coroner's inquest will be a formal in
0uiry into the cause OF death. Evelyn
Nesbit will not testify In the cOroneT's
court. but will go before the gran!
Jury. whose sittings are secret. An
indictment will undoubtedly be re-
turned, the plea Of insanity will be put
Ii and inquiry into the sanity of the
prisoner will be the first proceeding.
That may take a month and the result:
IL at present matter Of conjecture.
Burr Mcintosh, for many years
friend OF Harry X Thaw. who was
with him just before the shooting. is
positive the man was insane. He
says that only last Monday morning
Thaw accused a person who was prac-
tioally stranger Of paying attentions
10 his wife and had threatened to kill
him.
II have known Mr.. Thaw since boy
hood and I have noticed that In the
last few hours he had been erratic In
his behavior. ! have not the slightest
doubt that he was insane when he
committed the deed. Mr.. Thaw was
Jealous OF his wife. He was In love
with her and she seemed to be In love
with him. Within the last few months
he seemed to be possessed with a
mania that everybody was making
