 FROM A HIDf0US PAST
Continued From Page 1.

! terfering with Evelyn continuing il | Thaw's company.
 Mrs. Thaw was forced to admit that
 when she and her mother went abroad with Thaw in 1903 they were stil
 drawing upon a bounty from White Evelyn declared that she had a letter
 of credit for S4oO or $500. which was given her by White. which she late'
 turned over to Thaw. There was still balance in the Mercantile Trust company to her order also.
 But mamma got all that" said the
 witness.
 Jerome dwelt long upon the cable
 grams which Thaw is said to have
 sent to White. IL was brought out
 that the cableSrams were sent after
 Thaw knew of the relations which had existed between Miss Nesbit and
 White. Mrs. Thaw would not admit that she Thew positively who sent the cablegrams or whether her name was signed to them.
 "Surely." remarked Jerome. you don't mean to say he signed his own name?"
 No" she replied, "I don't mean that at all"
 A letter written by Mrs. Thaw tell ing of her gay life in Paris with Thaw and bunch from the Tenderloin" was read Jo the jury by Jerome. This brought out more testimony as to a dead rat" in a Parisian cafe. There seemed to be nothing in the witness past life about which the prosecutor was not informed. He seemed to have been able to trace every step. largely due. doubtless. 10 the typewriter statement of the mother. which Je- rome nearly always holds in his hand while hurling questions at the daugh- ter. In single spaced typewriting. the seems to cover fully seven ty-five pages.
 The springing of sensations did not rest all with the district attorney. Delmas sent a genuine thrill through the court room by declaring that he had been informed that it was the purpose of the district attorney to in- dict Mrs Thaw. Jerome denied trat any such statements had been made, but be did not deny the purpose.
 Ire incident came when Jerome. In m effort to make the dcfrns" produce certain letters from White which Mrs. Thaw declared were in the possession of Clifford Hartridge. one of her hus- bands attorneys. called Hartridge tc the witness stand. The lawyer declin- ad to answer all the questions relating .o the letters when it became ne.ss- sary for him to give a better reason han the mere fact that he was ihe .tt- Orney for the defendant. Delnas SIid | Iartridge had been retained by Mrs Thaw to protect her interests whcE | ;he heard that she was to be indicted. During the afternoon Mrs. Thlw de- l Jared that she was perfectly willing l or the letters to be produced.
 "They are your property. ara they | lot?" asked Jerome.
 No. l gave them to MT. Thaw.'
 Jerome directed Assistant Carvan to | lave a subpoena issued for Hartridge. | When this was done Jerome again de- | handed the letters. Hartridge said he . lad no intention of complying as he ! lad received the letters from the ! ands of the defendant. Jerome ap- ,ealed to Justice Fitzgerald. He had | eglected to have an affidavit made | s to the service of the subpoena, and II ustice Fitzgerald said there was Il othing upon which he could act Il iarvan was directed by his chief to raw up an affidavit. There the mat Il CT rested.
