ANOTHER LINER ON ROCKS.

sight of the wrecked White Star line
steamer Suevic, the Eider-Dempster

crew were safely taken ashore by the
breaches buoy. The Jebba will prove

New York, March 20.-The case for
the people In the Thaw trial was final
ly closed yesterday by the Introduction
of the much discussed Hummel afiida,
Wit. which, with the consent Of the de-
Sense, was read in full to the jury.
The affidavit proved surprise only in
the alleged severity of the assaults
Harry K. Thaw is said to have made
upon Evelyn Nesbit during the trip
through Europe in 1903, when, accord
ing to the testimony of Abraham Hum
mel, Miss Nesbit would not sign state
ments which Thaw had prepared. ac-
cusing Stanford White of having drug.

contradicts Humner.
The affidavit was in some ways a Ill,
rect contradiction Of Huu,mcl's recent
testimony upon the stand. In order
that the defense might not prevent
him from telling the story of the atii-
lavit he stated positively that he was
not acting as Miss Nesbit's attorne.
when he drew up the document; that
he was acting solely in the interest o,
Stanford White and that no legal &C
tion was contemplated in behalf ot
the young woman who is now Harry
Thaw's wife. ... ..

plated with the affidavit was the recov

When Mr.. Delmas began the intro

introduced first of all the record in the
trial and conviction of Hummel on the
charge Of conspiracy.
Mr.. Delmas put upon the stand three
policemen who saw Thaw the night OF
the tragedy or early in the morning
after, and they all declared that he
either looked or acted irrationally.
After this testimony had been pre-
scented Mr.. Delmas passed to the final
stages of the trial by introducing the
