In the course OF the day the district
attorney went over a goodly portion of the
ground that he and the witness had COW
cred before. There was another Of those
personally conducted tours through Eu-
rope. and at length, in the morning ses-
sion. jerome got around again to the
acquaintance that Miss Nesbit had with
Jack Barrymore. the actor.
At this point there took place little
scene that involved another actor. Mrs.
Thaw had explained that she and her
mother had some trouble over Mr.. Barry
more. her mother and Mr. White being
both displeased when the actor proposed
to her. Jerome had meantime sent a
messenger into the witness room. As he
proceeded with his questions Dr. Carleton
Flint entered the room and was escorted
along behind the jury box until he came
to a point only ten feet or so from the
witness chair. Then the district attor-
ney broke off shortly and asked OF the
doctor:
Does Not Know DR.. Flint.
Are you DR.. Carleton Flint?' DIT Flint
said he was

iner.

ing certainty.
Did you never go to that gentleman
for medical treatment" insisted the dis
trict attorney.
NO. sir" persisted the witness. But
Jerome tried once more. saying:
Did you not go with Jack Barrymore
to this DR.. Carleton Flints Office to his
house in New York City?'
NO, sir" snapped the witness. de6an;ly.
Jerome gave it up and DR.. Flint retired
Interest Increasing.
Interest in the trial seems to be in
creasing rather than falling of. This
is certainly true If the rush for admission
to the trial room Is to be taken as mean
ing anything. Long before the doors
were opened The corridors Of the criminal
courts building were thronged and when
spectators began TO be admitted there

they were observed with much interest
by a thrOng of the curious as they came

The lines Of admission were drawn

Thaw family was present.
Carried About Far Enough.
Jerome was frequently interrupted IN
his task of tracing the life that Miss
Nes0it led with Harry Thaw by objections
offered by Deimas. and Justice Fitzgerald
almost invariably sided with counsel FOR
the defense. It seemed as IL the court
was Of the opinion that that sort Of cross
examination had been carried about far

Seem Much Refreshed.
Both the witness and her husband
seemed 20 be much refreshed by the
three days rest they had enjoyed since
last Thursday. Harry Thaw seemed in
excellent spirits. and never appeared
worried by the questions Jerome asked
his wife. She, on Ter part, while not
looking quite rs youthful as when she

Afternoon Session.
Jerome's first queries after luncheon
were about the letter of credit from STAN
ford White that Miss Nesbit took to
Europe when she and her mother went
there with Thaw in the spring of 1903.
Thaw told her, the witness said, to put
it away and not to touch it again Then
