SAY THAW
Is SANE

New York, Mar. 15.-Delmas today
sprang a decided surprise upon Je-
rome by announcing that ne would
not cross-examine any of the experts
for the state in the Thaw trial. Je-
rome thereupon during the morning
session put five alienists upon the
stand one after another, and claim
ing their familiarity with the nypo-
thetica1 question put to the experts
for the defense and also Jerome's
IL 900 word exposition of the evil
dence, they declared their opinion
that at the time Thaw shot and kill
ed White he knew the nature of his
act and knew that the act was wrong.
DIR. Allan McLane Hamilton, who
mad been summoned as a witness in
the case, had long conference with
Delmas and others of Thaw's coun-
sci before the morning session. When
Jerome proposed calling Hamilton ne
seemed intent On proving that Thaw
suffered from an incurable form of
insanity. Then came the discovery of
the James Clinch Smith testimony
as to Thaw's rational conversations
upon the Madison Square Roof Gar
den and his roaming about the place
as if looking for the man VINO be-
came his victim, and Jerome switch
ed his policy to pressing the trial to
a conclusion upon the Indictment for
murder in the first degree. Hamilton
had expressed the opinion that Thaw
was insane when he saw him in the
Tombs and that he remains SO.

ABRAHAM HUMMELL
ON WITNESS STAND

New York Mar. 14.-After Abra-
ham Fummell mad been called to the
stand at the opening of the Thaw
trial today. Delmas began al arg,l-
ment in reply to Jerome as to the
admissibility of the evidence Hum
nell had to offer regarding the aff1-
davit Evelyn Nesbit is said to have
made in his Office When Delmas had
completed his argument Jerome res
ponded briefly and Justice Fitzgerald
sustained the objection made by Del
mas, saying the cases cited by jerome
were not proper authority on the ques
tio1 under consideration. The ruling
seemed to bar all of HummePs testi-
mony, but Jerome proceeded to ques-
tion him, and soo1 there was dra-
matte clash with Delmas.
AT the interview in your Office" p"
asked Jerome, did Evelyn Nesbit,
prior to your debating anything, tell
you that she had told Thaw that it
was not true that White had drugged
and ravished herr" Delmas was on
his feet to object, but before he could
do so and Immediately after Jerome
ceased to speak, Hummell said in a
loud voice, "She certainly did"
Delmas looked at the witness, and
with scorl in his voice, said: 'And
you call yourself a lawyer?"
Jerome objected to Delmas ad-
dressing remarks to the witness, and
stated further that he understood
Delmas to have said that he would
not object to the answer of such a
question as was asked the witness.
Delmas said he had made no such
statement, and turning to Hummell,
said: "You heard me reserve that
right, didn't you?" '1 did, replied
Hummel, not in the least perturbed.
Delmas then moved that the ques-
tion and answer be stricken out, but
before Justice Fitzgerald could rule,
he said: Through the extraordinary
conduct of the district attorney this
question and answer are in the rec
ord. Let them stand. 1 waive my
right
JeToHc lHou QucSCioHcu tAe "lIH~oo
about Thaw wanting Evelyn to sign
paper accusing White, and Delmas
Immediately objected. The objection
was sustained 1t was agreed to ex-
cuse Hummel temporarily and go
o1 with the states experts tais af-
ternoon. A recess was then taken.
The hypothetical question which
Jerome put to his six experts this af-
them to base an opinion as to Thaw's
sanity, covered practically all the ev-
idence in the case. 1t contained about
$4,000 words, and throughout Thaw
was referred to as III K T." and
Evelyn as "E. N. T."

Circus Day in St. JOhnSbury.

Forepaugh & Sells Bros. united shows
exhibited here July 4th and as it was
also our greatest national holiday
good time was anticipated by the people
generally. The first section of the circus
arrived in town about O'Clock from
Newport and by s o'clock everything
was unloaded. Through a mistake at
Newport the cars were loaded wrong
which occasioned considerable unloading
and delay here.
At 10 o'clock, the advertised time of
the street parade, our streets were lined
with anxious people who waited pa
tiently until IL o clock. The parade was
the best ever seenEn st. Johnsbury and
was one long gorgeous dazzling pageant
of fine horses, beautiful costumes and
many novelties rarely seen in a street
parade. There were 240 horses in the
parade, 16 elephants, y camels and sew
eral open cages. Two performances
were given, at 2 and p. m. At the af-
ternoon show the helcapacity of the large
tent was considerably taxed, but in the
evening very Slldll crown dIleHueu.
The performance was never equalled here
and was the best Conducted and clean
est circus that ever vis;tedSt Johnsbury.
The climax was reached when Madame
Larock, who makes the daring automo-
bile somerset in Inid-air made her ap-
pearance. She carried her act out as
advertised and it certainly was wonder
full. The circus went from shere to Lam
caster, where they showed the next day.
AS the last section was pulling through
Summervlle brake beam dropped down
and threw two of the large circus cars
off the track. It was found necessary to
take the rear part of this section around
by SCOTS Junction. Nobody was hurt
and only little delay was caused by
the accident.
