EvELYN'S MOTHER
ISSUES STATEMENT
Mrs. Holman Declares She anc
Daughter Slept Together on
European Trip.
GIVES FIRST INTERVIEW
Woman Attacked by DeImas Declares
That She Trusted the Man Thaw
kiIied-Did Not Know
of His Act.

Pittsburg, April 1S.-The Fittsburg
Leader this afternoon prints a six-col-
umn statement by Mrs. c. ]. Holman,
mother of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw. In
which she defends herself against the
accusations expressed and implied
against her during the Thaw trial.
The statement opens by saying that
two nights after the night upon which
Thaw shot White she received this tele-
gram from her daughter:
TT is most important for you to say
absolutely nothing"
Until this time she has remained ST.
lent, but has now been forced to take
the defensive because of the attack
upon her by Mr.. Delmas in his closing
address to the Thaw jury.
She denies she aided District Attor-
ney jerome in n way, and that she
has been seen by jerome, Caravan or
Hartrid~e.
Mrs. Holman then details her strug-
gle following the death Of her first hus-
band in her efforts to properly raise her
two children. She says her daughter
first posed for an artist named Storm
of Philadelphia, who met Evelyn at a
summer resort when a little girl.
Florence (Eyelyn's first name), she
said, was in love with the stage"
She did everything to discourage her.
but it was useless.
The story of Florence Evelyn's first
meeting with White, she said, is sub
stantially as told by her On the witness
stand.
When Evelyn returned she told her
mother she had met the grandest a
and later when White sent for her she
went to his office.
White, she said, warned her specific
ally against several young men whom
Evelyn had been acquainted with, but
did not refer to Thaw.
Would Have Killed White.
His manner, words and actions were
the personification of whole hearted dis
interested generosity. Mrs. Holman
said, and if ever a woman imposed inn
plicit confidence in a man she did in
White.
Mrs. Holman then asserts if Evelyn
underwent the experience that is aid
to have befallen her. she did not take
her mother into her confidence. Con-
ttnuing, Mrs. Holman, avs
