sible. Mrs. Bolton passed a restless,
sleepless night, and her condition this
morning was described by the attend
ing physician as extremely critical.
He said that she had no better than an
even chance to recover.
Thaw Interested in Bolton.
All twelve of the Thaw jurors were
on hand at the opening Of court this
morning. When Thaw came into
court he seemed to take a special in

friendly. Mr.. Bolton was serious, his
eyes being directed to the floor. DR..

came that Mrs. Bolton was dying and
the court adjourned.

Mrs. Joseph D. Bolton, wife Of juror

noon. In consequence, Harry Thaw
is much cast down this afternoon. His
condition Is really pitiable. The death

think his chances now of acquittal are
of the best and the new conditions to

dismay.
Will Attend Wife's Funeral.
The Thaw case has been postponed
until Monday. This will give Juryman
Bolton time to attend his wife's fu'

his death with his hand at the wheel,
when given every opportunity to save
himself.
