DeIras Essays to Burn Into the
Jury's Mind His Plea for
Harry Thaw.
TRIALS LAST STAGE IS BEGUN
Counsel Repudiates the "Unwritten
Law as His Basis.
Client Is Safe Under the Statutes OF
New York - Scathing Denun-
citation of Mrs. Nesbit
and Hummel.

New York, April 9.-The trial OF
Harry X. Thaw is nearing the end.
Attorney Delmas has begun his clos
ing address to the jury, and after he
had spoken for more than two hours
and a half an adjournment was TAX
en- for the day. Delmas expects to con-
clude before the luncheon hour is
reached. District Attorney Jerome win
make the closing address of the trial
tomorrow and Thaw's fate should be
in the hands of the jury by Wednes-
day evening. Justice Fitzgerald or
dered the jury locked up until the end
Of the trial
Discards the ''Unwritten Laws"
Declaring he would not base his plea
upon the ''unwritten law" because his
client found ample protection in the
written statutes of the state of New
York, Delmas made a striking appeal
to the sympathies of the jurors, and
so far as he progressed the subject
Of Thaw's insanity at the time he COM
mitted the homicide was not even hint
ed at. DelmaS based his argument
solely upon the story of Mrs. Harry
Thaw. With flushed cheeks, but dry
eyes. that young woman heard her
life history repeated to the men who
are to Judge her husband, and bowed
her head as her mother was denounced
in the bitterest terms and tones the
eloquent lawyer could command
Denunciation of the Mother.
EVEN a beast protects its young"
he declared with scornful emphasis.
'but this unnatural mother deserted
her daughter in this city of millions
to be betrayed by false friend, to be
lured into a gilded palace and there
left the victim of gray-haired man.
wounded, bleeding and deyoured.'
Delmas went with great detail into the
life Evelyn Nesbit had led up to the
meeting with Harry Thaw. In all OF
his remarks he referred to her as
this child,' for child he said she lG
today. He told of Thaw's great love
for her and his efforts to rescue hel
from 1.-The clutches of Stanford White,
whose achievements in his profession
declared were an aggravation Of his
! crime"

DENoUNOEs STANFORD WHITE
Again Accuses the Mother-Lived on
Her Daughters Ruin.

Her Daughters Ruin.
Delmas, before beginning his attack
upon Evelyn Thaw's mother, poured
out torrent Of denunciatiOn upon the
architect who became the victim OF
Thaw's pistol. He accused him of the
crime Of rape,' and then declared
that President Roosevelt had said in
message to congress that such
crime should be visited with death.
This was one of the suggestions which
ThaW himself made to his counsel for
his summing up speech-one of the
suggestions which played so important
part in the proceedings before the
lunacy commission. Delmas declared
that God heard the cry of the fated
child upon whom Stanford White had
fixed his gaze and had determined
should be his. He quoted from scrip
ture that HE who afiicts a fatherless
child shall PERISH" and declared that
Providence had sent Thaw to avenge
the wrong.
The attorney declared that Thaw 10
his wife's only protector-that he
came into her life when she was on
the downward path, told her that no
matter what the world thought of her
she was to him an angel. He took her
to be his wife, ready to share the bur
dens that a mother had helped to place
upon her daughter Delmas accused
Mrs. Nesbit of having lived upon the
wages of her daughters ruin. He
sought to picture to the jury what he
termed the sinister surroundings in
which the girl had been reared, and in
doing so he mercilessly attacked tho
mother.
Delmas rose to the highest point OF
his address when he told the jury that
the girls mother was the one who had
supplied District Attorney Jerome with
the arrows with which to wound the
daughter on cross-examination q
cross-examination which he declared
would live long in the annals of Grim
| inal history. but which left the girls
story mistaken in all Its essential de
tails. That Evelyn Nesbit's story wac
true and was told to Harry Thaw
| formed the subject of the argument
for more than an hour. Delmas de-
clared the only evidence the district
attorney had to bring against the girl
was the "miscalled affidavitr procured
