Jerome Aims at Insanity The
DRY First Of All
EVELYN NOT DlSPROVED
Thaw Knew Previously Of the Stories
About Whites Running Young Girls,
Says Jerome in Stating
His Case.

New York, March ii Frederick Long
fellow, former personal counsel for
Harry X. Thaw, was called by jerome
as the first witness in rebuttal when the
Thaw trial opened this morning.
Almost AZ the beginning Of the exam
ination jerome revealed his intention of
overthrowing Thaw's insanity defense.
He explained to the court that he pro-
posed to show that the tales Evelyn
told Thaw Of other girls being ruined
BY White could not have upset his mind,
because he had known Of the cases which
she recited before. He had never heard
her own story. Jerome declared that
he could show that Thaw secured his in
formation from law suits
In his argument Jerome went into the
details, thus succeeding in getting before
tle jury fact that he could not have
brought out on the stand Delmas fought
had to keep out this line Of testimony
and the battle ragged for half an hour.
Jerome said that he had no wish to at
tack Evelyn's story at the present time,
but wished to show that Thaw had the
knowledge two years previously Of the
facts to which the experts attributed
his @brain Storm Later, he said, he
might wish TO disprove her story
Jerome's attempt to question the wit
ness about Thaws letter, written before
june. 1908, were blocked by DeImas'
objections. Delmas also blocked the way
Nwhen the district attorney tried to lead
UP to the famous Hummell affidavit.
Dolphin M. Delmas, senior counsel for
Harry X. Thaw, communicated with his
client yesterday through his confidential
etenographer, who was admitted to the
Tombs in the day. The young woman
said she had come from Mr. Delmas, who
was spending the day at Atlantic City,
and after being identified by Warden
Flynn, was escorted to the second tier,
wher she talked for some time with
Thaw outside the gate
Upon receiving the message the pris-
oner spent some time in writing. Thaw
yesterday received a letter from his
mother and one from his wife, spending
considerable time replying to them. Part
of the day he spent reading the Sunday
papers, and in the afternoon Dan O'Reil-
IN OF lnaW c0unsei called. Upon leaV-
ing the attorney said be had found the
prisoner in pretty good spirits.
Thaw yesterday attended the chapel
service. He had nothing to say to news
papermen, beyond the message that he
had been warned by counsel that he
SHOULD have nothing further to say, and
that his attorneys would have to do
the talking.
District Attorney Jerome remained AZ
his home yesterday and was in confer
enee with the alienists who were at his
Office Saturday. DR.. Austin c. Flint wa.
present, and it is understood that by.
pothetical question was formed. Assist,
ant District Attorney Garyan was at the
criminal courts building yesterday after,
noon and assisted the stenographer who
made copies Of the questions which were
later submitted to Mr.. Jerome

Car Which was Turned over to
the Consolidated Lighting
Conpany.

A stick Of dynamite was found in a
car of soft coal which was being nm
loaded Saturday for the Consolidated
Lighting company at Montpelier. and the
finding Of ii caused no little excitement.
The coal was originally consigned to the
Central Vermont railroad and came di

the Consolidated company was short Of
coal they appealed to the Central and

was discovered before pick or shovel
came in contact with it. The reason for
its being placed there IS not known.

RESORTS TO DIVORCE

Mrs, Carrie G. Mcveigh Of Brattleboro
Alleges Neglect and Refusal
to Support


Brattleboro, March II Mrs. Carrie
.G. MeVcigh, who has passed through a
variety of experiences mixed with con-
siderable unhappiness, has resorted To-
divorce as d means of enabling her to
Hive peaceably with her four minor
children, Norman aged II, Wayne aged
Z, Paul aged 1 and Dorothy aged 10
months,
Her petition, filed N the office of
county clerk II. ID. TT Stowe. alleges
that since April 1, 1868. her husband
Thomas II. McVeigh, hss wilfiilly and
cruelty neglected aud refused To sup,
port her, and it asks that Vie he allowed
to resume ler maiden name. that she be
given the custody 81 her four minor
children mad that the household furni-
tlme be decreed to her.
MeYeigh formerly WIS might engineer
for the Brattleboro gaalight company
AZ its electric power plant on West
river in West Dummerstan. During the
night Of March 80, 1905, freshet
threatened the power plant. and on the
morning Of the next day McVeigh could
not be found. The machinery was run
ming, and IL was supposed that he had
been drowned,
Afterward he was heard from in New
York, and the divorce petition states
THAT he is now id that elty.
After McYeigh's disappearance the

HAVE TO LEAVE STATE.
In Order to Get New Hampshire Prison,
ers "a Wnndsvilie

ers TO Wo0dEville.
Lebanon. N. H.. March Ito ret
prisoners to the Grafton county Jail at
Woodsville. the easiest and quickest WAY
for the officials of towns in the southern
portion of the county Is to 20 via White
River Junction, VI, over the Passumpsic
division Of the Boston & Maine railroad
to Wells river, and then across the river
to Woodsyille.
This involves carrying prisoners out of
the state and, as consequence may be
seen almost daily, a proceeding which
has not its equal elsewhere in the United
States
Up to The present time no prisoner
has ever taken advantage Of his rights
and refused to proceed farther in the
custody of New Hampshire officer on
the soil Of Vermont. The officers do not
dare take the risk with prisoners accused
Of serious crimes.
When the officers are afraid TO take
men 10 Woodsyile BY way of White
River junction. it is necessary 10 90
via Franklin and Tilton, and then over
the White Mountain division Of the Bos-
ton & Main railroad TO the Jail town,
route that consumes the better part
Of a day each way.
When the murderer Amy was re-
moved from Hanover 10 Manchester jail
the officers did not dare TO take advan.
tage Of the railroad in Vermont, 80 bis
cot was placed III an express wagon and
driven to Lebanon, where the train was
taken to Manchester, without going out
of New Hampshire.
The custom Is peculiar one, and ii
will probably be continued until some
unfortunate officer attempts to carry out
the arrangement with prisoner who
knows his rights, when serious compica.
tions arc likely to result.
