Justice Scott Of the Supreme Court was
a guest OF Justice Fitzgerald on the bench
during the afternoon session.
Harry Thaw was unusually pale as he en-
tered the court room. When he had reached
MS seat he took up pencil and paper and
began to make notes until his wife was
again called to the witness stand. Then he
looked up at her and the two exchanged
giances which seemed to have a world OF
meaning in them.
Mr. Delmas was about to renew his ar
gument for the introduction of the letter
from Harry Thaw to an attorney named
Lonefeiiow just after tho Paris incident,
when District Attorney Jerome said he
would withdraw his objection, He first
asked permission to read the letter. The
letter first was offered at the end OF the
morning session.
During this time Mrs. Thaw gazed fire.
quently at Justice Fitzgerald, who sat Just
at her right There was an undeniable APP
peal in her eyes.
Addressed to an Attorney.
The letter addressed to Attorney Long
fellow. and which was offered as tending to
show Thaw's frame of mind, was as fol-
lows:
Mrs. N. insisted sailing New York when
her daughter left. I kept Mrs. N. in Lon
don three months, cost over $1,000. Mrs.
Nesbit sails tomorrow for New York. She
thinks I kidnapped her 17N-year-old
daughter. Before she lands she will know
that l have always done the best I could.
The child cannot be with her mother,
because when she was Is 2-3 years old she
was ruined by blackguard. Don't worry,
but find out her address. Telephone Mrs.
N, but not in your name. Ask her if she
saw Mr.. Thaw aboard. AS soon as she
answers hang up the phone"
On slip of paper inclosed was written:
IF you can't read this don't worry
Please telephone her incog. and wire me
at my expense.

Then he took me into another room.
That room was a bed room. On small
table stood bottle of champagne and one
glass. Mr.. White poured out just one
glass for me, and paid no attention to It.
Mr.. White went away, came back and said:

asked me why 1 was not drinking my
champagne. and said I did not like 1t: it
tasted bitter. But he persuaded me to drink

"A few moments after I had drank the
champagne there began pounding and

stage.

White got up and threw a kimona on me.
HE took me home and / sat up all night
crying
What did he say afterward?"
Made Her Swear.
"He made me swear that I would never
tell my mother about it. He said there
was no use in talking and the greatest
thing In this world was not to get found
out. He said the girls In the theaters were
foolish to talk. He laughed afterward."
WAS Mr.. Thaw excited when you told
him these things?'
Yes, he was excited, and walked up and
down the room. We sat up all night. He
said 1t wasn't my fault, that no one could
blame me, and that I was only an unfor-
tunate girl and that he didn't think any the
less of me: he would marry me any way"
Did he offer to marry you again?'
Yes. and I told him that If did marry
him the friends OF Stanford White would
laugh at him and laugh at me, as they
suspected our relations If they did not

be well to marry on account of his family.
He persisted that he wished to marry her.
Women in Tears.
Mrs. Thaw recovered her composure after
she had got over the most sensational part
of her story. Many of the women in the
court room were crying. and the most in
tense silence prevailed in the ROOM

Thaw about her early life with her mother

they had endured. The money she earned

Mrs. Thaw said she met White in Sep

The door opened of itself, she said, and
the house looked at first as if no one lived
there.
She said she went upstairs and met Mr.

The Thing Republicans Should
Do or Not Dr..

The constitutional cony ention hav-
ing shown its intention of holding a
recess ndjournmentu.ti W It'll the day Of
election, there Is no longer any excuse
for the republican organization to wait
and see what thSy will do before be-
ginning an acti .ve campaign.
There IS a widespread suspicion that
everything is not as it should be in a
mastery inactivity OF the committee at
Oklahfma City. Whatever the inten-
ton Of the controlling spirits OF organi-
zation, they are not only hopelessly
demoralizing the republican party, bat
creating universal reputation for in
tquiious incompeiency, which is the
JOY Of their enemies and the grief OF
their friends.
There is feeling abroad that there
Is motive behind the motive Of this
Obstructive inactivity Many sinister
and dangerous guesses are being made
about the color Of the rat in the wood
pile. This feeling of distrust is becom-
ing so strong that IL the committee
does not soon call state convention,
any group Of men in any part OF the
territory are liable TO step To the front
and do so in the name of the people.
The desi re Of honest republicans to
bring this state into republican ranks
OF the nation is no light matter. They
are willing to go into the fight with
a vengeance, win or lose, and at least
have the pleasure Of an honest effort
They want the matter of how this

the constitution than those who made
it.
This hesitency and half heartedness
is crimi nal to the party and to the
people who desire statehood and desire
the rep ublican party to administer its
affairs. II the gentlemen in charge
have u faith Of victory let them give
way to those who have.
A republican victory at the state
election is not hopeless. There are
demccrats-some OF them members OF
the constitutional conven tion-who
think that the republican party can
even carry the legislature, not in spite
Of the gerrymander but because of it.
Have the republican leaders forgot
ten the great interests at stake wheth-
er this state is brought in republican or
democratic? Are they forgetting that
the democrats by their activity are
making democrats and the republicans
by their activity are losing republicans?
There is nothing left but for the re-
publicans TO go on into the fight for all
they are worth, with the faiti5 Of con-
querors. II the present leaders Of the
party desire to step aside they can be
substituted from the unknown ranks of
the people, and, with a new-found
Cromwell, whip the democrats to a
standstill on their own ground. And
when the fight begins one half OF the
democrats will capitulate and come
over on the republican side. For the
democrats have troubles Of their own,
and there is much wailing and gnash-
ing Of teeth at home State Register.
