of Harry Kendall Thaw, and question
ed him closely concerning the case of
Edith Thompson, with a view of show

lcontlnned from Page one

alIoting the time for the summing up.
District Attorney Jerome has at last
burned behind him all bridges leading
TO lunacy commission, and has ire
yocably pointed his course to proving
that Thaw was sane the night he shot
and killed Stanford White and that, be-
ling sane, his crime constituted muir
der in the first degree Within 10
days or two weeks the case should be
in the jujrys hands.
Mr.. Jerome said he would conclude
the states case with the testimony Of
three experts--Drs. Austin Flint, Car
los f. Macdonald and William Mabon.
/ 1t was agreed that after the defense
has put in its case in surrebuttal each
side shall have one clear day for the
summing up. Then will follow the
charge Of the court and the considera-
ton of the evidence by the Jury
The experts will not be reached be-
fore Thursday, and. figuring upon the
disposal of one day. the last OF the
trio will not be examined until Mon
day next. The defense will probably
occupy the remainder of next week
with sirrebuttal and the summing up
period probably will begin on Monday,

life for the murder of Stanford White
has realized the predictions made at
the beginning that II would become
the most famous in the history of Grim
inal trials in America. ThFk.Ag trial
has been a record breaking one in
many respects. o.
/ One OF the most interesting side
lights on the famous case is afforded
by comparison of the amount of pub
/ licity it has received with the amount
OF newspaper space given to other
history-making events Of recent times.
Since the date of the beginning Of
the trial, January 23, the leading
newspapers of New York city have de-
voted more than 5000 columns to the
case. The estimated number Of words
range between 5000. 900 and 5000. 900.
Placed end to end the columns would
stretch over one and three ourths
statute miles. The columns OF space
devoted to accounts of the trial by the
daily press Of the entire country. IL
he columns were placed end to end.
would form band Of paper long
enough to stretch from New York city
beyond Philadelphia.
One hundred and forty-two pictures
of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw appeared in
the daily newspapers of New York in
single week The number printed
in New York during the entire period
of the trial runs into the thousands.
while for the country at large the total
can be figured only by tens of thous-
ands.
The space devoted to the case by
the American press greatly exceeds in
amount the space given to the assas-
sination of President Mckinley and
the subsequent trial and electrocutfon
of the assassin.
More space has been given to ac-
counts of the Thaw case than the total
amount devoted to accounts of the ten
most famous murder trials in America
in recent years. These include the two
trials of Roland Molineux, the three
trials of Nan. Patterson, and the
trials of Albert It. Patrick Lizzie Bor-
den, Johann Hoch and the murderers
of Dir. p. Fl. Cronin in Chicago
1t is believed that the entire cost OF
the trial for both sides will total near
" $I,250,0oO.
A half million dollars is placed as
the minimum figure for the cost of
counsel for the defense. Added to this
the cost of expert testimony, the hotel
accommodations for witnesses and a
hundred and one incidentals that have
to be paid for at extravagant rates the
result win be that the Thaw fortune
must be depleted to the extent of
81 100000 before the case is ended
Future developments may run the
amount up to much higher figure
The cost to the state will also be
very heavy The salaries of the pre-
siding judge and of the district attor-
ney, exclusive of the latter's assist
ants, amount to $4,000 since the com
mencement of the trial.
When the trial is concluded there
will be bin of several thousand dol
lars for stenographers' services.
The cost Of talesmen at So a day will
exceed $500
The cost of hotel accommodations
will amount to not less than $4,000
Cost of balif and guards $4,000

Charleston, March 14.--While it is
difficult to accurately estimate the
total of the expenditures of the state
for the fiscal years of 1907 and 1898
and equally as difficult to determine
the exact amount of revenue that win
be raised, it is not thought that any
deficit will be created In round num-

extra 800 for licenses, althoug it APP

the saloonists may make up their
minds to test the matter in the courts.
