commission and to aid us in arriving
at a conclusion TO the best of your pro-
fessionaI and official abilities. Please
remember, Mr.. Jerome, that you will
bring forward any witnesses whom we
may desire to question"
The commission may finish its work
today and be ready to report to Justice
Fitzgerald on Monday. The Thaw jury
will report on Monday morning, and it
is the hope of the presiding Judge as
well as the commission that the matter
of the defendants sanity may be dis
posed of by that time.
If the commission should submit Il
report to the effect that Thaw fully
understands the nature of the proceed
ings against him and has nationally ad-
vised his counsel Justice Fitzgerald
will simply direct that the trial pro
ceed without making public the com
missions findings. If the report should
be against Thaw. Justice Fitzgerald
will announce the decision from the
bench, and if he deems the prisoners
release to be dangerous to the public
peace and safety he will sign an order
directing the confinement in some state
hospital for the insane. probably Mat
teawan.
Mr. Hartridge was with Thaw for
two hours and upon leaving the pris-
oner frankly admitted that the present
situation pleased him immensely.
The attorney said: ''In my opinion he
is in good shape physically and mental
ly and will go through the remainder
of the ordeal as we'll as he did through
the past sessions. OF course the posi-
ton is "A trying one for him. as 1t
would be for any one. but he has met
It bravely and is greatly encouraged at
the course Of events.
Il was pleased to find him in such
good condition and personally am we'll
satisfied with the case as it stands and
confident Of an outcome agreeable to
Mr.. Thaw and his attorneys"
He added;
II am in hopes that the conclusions
Of the lunacy board will be reached by
Monday and dhat the trial before the
Jury can be resumed on Tuesday.
Should this prove to be so | think the
case should 20 10 the jury late Thurs
day or on Friday morning."

GOVERNORS
DICKINSON
STATEMENT
Says the SeCretaryOf State Must
Be Held Innocent Until Proven
Guilty and Time is Short.
to the EVENING NEWS:

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
TRENTON. Mar. 30:-Governor
Stokes today issued an official state
ment with reference to the charges
made by Mayor Pagan, of Jersey
City. against Secretary of State Dick
inson. The governor says in part:
The charges are so serious that it
is no reflection upon the word of the
accuser to say that the secretary of
states innocence must be believed un-
! til the contrary is proven. This is
not only common law, but common
sense and justice. The accusations
are lodged against a man who, for
years, has been in the full glare of
publicity; and they come upon him
now at an hour when the time for
action, which must be taken, is all
too short for such conscientious de-
termination. Today they are accu-
sations. Until they are substantially
proven | shall not, as part of the APP
pointing power, take upon myself the
responsibility, without proof, of plac-
ing the brand of shame upon the life
and character of a fellow man.
The governor says, also, that if
Colonel Dickinson should be ap-
pointed and the charges should be
substantiated, he would ask for his
resignation as secretary of state.

against the New Jersey Produce
Company, of this city, which has

the chance.
When | finally closed by eyes, the
only thing on my mind was the out

to me in this dream.
Taking the old painters outfit that
had been laid out for me, | wrapped
it up carefully and, leaving car at
the old baseball grounds, | entered Il

NEW YORK. March 30. - In the
midst of the oral examination of Har-
ry Thaw by the lunacy commission,
while the prisoner was answering
readily and intelligently every ques-
ton that his inquisitors put to him.
District Attorney Jerome suddenly
startled the commission by announcing
that he had practically abandoned his
fight to put Thaw in an asylum almost
before it had begun. He added that
under no consideration would he bring
any Witnesses forward in support of
his week old declaration that Thaw is
at present mentally incompetent to
confer with the counsel who are de-
Tending him for the murder of Stan
ford White.
Commissioner Mcclure. who was
presiding, gazed at the prosecutor in
astonishment. Commissioner Olney,
sitting on his right. lost his patience
entirely.
You perhaps forget, sir" he said
sharply, that the statutes require you
to attend all meetings of this lunacy

On account of a siX-inch connection
which was being made at Sheridan
ty-four inch main had to be shut off
and the total supply of the city was
through the sixteen-inch main. AS
the sixteen-inch main is much smaller
than the twenty-four-inch, the ve-
locity was increased and caused mud
and sediment in the pipe to flow out
of the faucets. The pressure was also
affected and the gauge at the city
hall registered only five pounds al
one time.
