Stokes yesterday fulfilled the promise
he made the day before to Magistrate
Crane, that he would place his big tour
ing car at the disposal of any hospital
one day a week SO that patients might
have an outing. Seven patients from
the general memorial hospital were
given long ride into the country, and
the doctors said the airing was better
than any medicine.
1t is believed that many rich men
will follow this worthy charity and that
members of the Automobile Club OF
America and agents for various motor
cars will fall in line.
Fred Beard, Mr.. Stakes chauffeur
who was arrested Thursday and through
whose arraignment the offer of the
Stokes car was made, guided the party,

and charged with public crime.
! Whether innocent or guilty of that

fused) in a public jail and the expenses
incident should be paid out of the pub

"Is this being done? On the contrary,
this Ruef is the prisoner of a private

Or. Mcclure Missing

Chairman Mcclure asked Mr.. Jerome
why DR.. Mcguire, the Thaw family
physician, had not been produced be-
fore the commission. Mr.. Jerome said
he had not seen the physician today.
1--WE saw him last in the district at
torney's Office" Interrupted Hartridge,
"and we supposed he would surely be
here
A messenger was sent to summon the
doctor. but he could not be found.
'Why has he absented himself?" in
quired Mr.. Mcclure, looking from one
counsel to another. No answer was
forthcoming and the chairman directed
that the doctor be subpoenaed for next
Tuesday, and at the same time re-
minded District Attorney Jerome that
a. he had made the suggestion on the
court record as to Thaws insanity, the
burden of proving it rests on him. Mr..
Jerome said that when his seven ex-
perts are allowed to testify he will
submit to them a group of facts upon
which they will move a scientific opin-
ion that Thaw is now of unsound mind.
Thaw. during the executive session.
was CARED over nearly every detail of
his trial. it is understood, and was
asked regarding the testimony offered
by various witnesses as to the effect
he thought his testimony might have
on a jury and the general tenor of the
courts rulings on the broader points of
law.
Letters Not Admitted
On cross examination Mr.. Jerome
sought to question Thaw regarding the
letters he wrote to Banker ]. Dennison
Lyon of Pittsburg since the tragedy on
the Madison Square roof garden. Mr..
Jerome said he based his contention
as to Thaw's present sanity partly on
those letters. The commission ruled
that the letters could not be accepted
as evidence.
Mr.. Jerome argued the point. but in
vain. That Mr.. Jerome had been in
frequent clashes with the commission,
even during the secret session, was
apparent from the tense feeling which
existed after the doors had been
thrown open.
The Thaw jury will report before
Justice Fitzgerald Monday morning at
10:30 O'Clock. Prior to that time the
presiding Judge will consult with the
lunacy commissioners as to the amount
of time they will require to complete
their work and will then dismiss the
jury for as many days as are neces-
sary.
1t was partly due TO the fact that the
jury is to report Monday and partly
because District Attorney Jerome and
Thaw's lawyers wish to call certain
points of law to the attention of the
comission that Tuesday was fixed for
the resumption of the lunacy proceed
ings.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-31
Jerome Won't Talk

Mr.. Jerome's ross-eXamlnation, an
attorney declared, did not shake Thaw
I'm the least. Mr.. Jerome declined to
discuss the hearings. He seemed much
disappointed at the ruling which shut
out DR.. Hamiltons testimony, the ply
sician already having gone on record
as saying that Thaw is paranoiac
with but q slight chance of recovery.
During the public session the commits
sion examined four priosn guards-one
Of them Thaw's personal warden in
the court room, and a visiting physi-
clan to the Tombs. All declared Thaw
had acted nationally ever since his in
generation. One said Thaw had a
haunted look in his eyes when he first
came to the Tombs, but 1t began to
disappear last September.
Attorneys Delmas and Hartridge also
took the stand. They declared Thaw
had fully comprehended this phase of
the trial and had made helpful sugges-
tions from time to time. District At
torney Jerome asked Mr.. Hartridge If
Thaw had not repeatedly expressed a
desire to address the court.
Mr.. Hartridge said he could recall no
such instance. Asked if his associate
had not informed him of Thaw's
wishes along this line, Mr.. Hartridge
was silenced by an objection from At
torney Gleason, viii h was sustained by
the commission.
Mr.. Jerome then said he would un-
iertake no further cross examination of
counsel.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-31

who could give n competent opinion as
to Thaw's present state of mind the
commission would hear them next Tues
day morning.
Jerome Satisfied
THAT is all 1 DESIRE" said the dis
trict attorney.
When the public session began Mr..
Jerome seemed irritable and was con-
stantly thereafter involved In wordy
clashes with members Of the commis-
sion. His urgent manner Of insisting
that he had a right to adduce additional
testimony before the commission rem
dered its verdict was generally regard
ed as a concession that Thaw had made
favorable impression during his long
examination.
During the district attorneys cross
examination 1t was said Thaw acted
most creditably and answered Mr.. Je-
rome's sharp, pointed questions With
calmness and deliberation.
When the public was allowed to en-
ter the court room Thaw ppeared tubi-
liant To n reporter who leaned over
and congratulated him on the showing
he had made, Thaw replied.
THANK you very much, but thought
that was to be kept a secret"
Thaw's attorneys expressed them
selves as entirely satisfied with the final
stages of their clients severe examina-
tion. Altogether he was on the stand
about six hours, counting Thursday 8
session Of the commission.
