THE LAWSON SUIT.
Case for $8.O0O,00O Was Opened To-
 day ct Boston.

N0sc AW POsOVVsOVV W0c OPcueu AO- day at Boston.
 Boston, April 23.--The suit of the 'U0pper Ranpsvconsolidated Mining Co against Albert c. Burrage, Thom- as w. Lawson and others in which damages aggregating $3,000,00O are asked, was opened to-day in the Massachusetts supreme court before Judge Loring. The restoration by the defendants of 10000 shares Of the stock of the company is named as an alternative of the damages claimed. The case will be heard on it's merits.
 It is alleged by the plaintiffs to the suit that Albert c. Burrage, in violation of a contract with Paine. Webber & Go, Boston brokers. and the Copper Range Consolidated Co, wrongfully sold 70,000 shares of the company stock, the contract having been made in connection with the ac- quisition in 1904 of the Tri-Mountain Mining Co by the Copper Range Go. Burrage being a stock holder in the Tri-Mountain Go.
 Thomas w. Lawson and c. D. Bur rage are claimed by the plaintiffs to have caused Albert c. Burrage to violate the contract he had with Paine, Webber & Co. This they deny. Albert c. Burrage denies any breach of contract and claims he was induced to enter it by misrepre- sentations and that Paine. Webber & Co waived their right requiring their consent to the disposal of the shares.
 Thomas w. Lawson is at present in Europe, but 1t is understood that his deposition has been taken for use at the trial.
 The early part of to-day's court session was occupied by reading of the bill of complaint by attorneys for the plaintiff and review of the pre- vious legal proceedings in the case.

DEMOCRAT IN LEAD

Providence, R. l., April 23.-Unl' versal interest was shown In the closing session of the Rhode Island legislature to-day because of the pos slbility that the deadlock of 13 weeks in the balIoting for . United states senator to succeed George Peabody Wetmore might be broken. The nc tion of the executive committeA of tts republican state committees yesterday In declaring by q vote of 9 to III favor of Colonel Samuel Ponleroy Colt of Bristol aroused the keenest speculation as the assemblynaen gath- cred for their joint session. The mQn- agers for the three candidates for the position claimed that therc would bc no deflection from the ranks of the , supporters of their respective candi- dates.
 Senator Wetmore and Colonel Colt who are both republican candidates and Colonel Robert H. I. Goddard of Providence, the democratic candi- date have each expressed letermina- ton not to withdraw in favor of any other candidate and in many quarters the belief was expressed that the pres ont session of the legislature would adjourn without any choice beng made and that Rhode Island would have in the upper branch of the next session of congress but one repre- sentative, Senator Nelson w. Aldrich. It was to prevent this possibility that the executive committee of the republican state committee urged the republican members of the legislature to unite on one of tine two candidates, pointing out that in this way repu1i- can success was assured. In the 56 ballots which have thus far been cast, Colonel Goddard, receiving the full democratic strength has led with 41 votes while Colonel Colt has had 38 republican votes to S1 for forner Senator Wetmore, no material change in the result taking place lu a'l the weeks of the balloting.
 The four members of the executive committee of the republican stare committee who dissent from the ma jority report favorlng Colonel Colt in a declaration sent to the assembly men protest against the action of the executive committee. asserting that 1t does not represent the opinion Of the republican state central committee, and claim, that this latter body has mt been consulted on the suhjets. They term the action of the majority of the executice committee Improper and absolutely unjustiflable.' The sIeners of the majority report were William c. Landerse, Edward \. Brown, Jesse V. B. Watson and RoE- ert F. Rodman.
 The first ballot in the legislature today for United States senator was like the preceding ones. no change be ing recorded. The dfty-eighth bal- lot resulted in the same way, each candidate receiving the savne number of votes that he has in the past thir- teen weeks.
 After the sixty-eighth ballot, with out any change being effected re cess was taken until 5 o'clock this af- ternoon.

 New Britain, April 23.-Treasurer Edward N. Stanley of the New Brit ain Savings bank said last evening that the complete restoration of con- fidence is shown by the size of the deposits made at the bank yesterday. They aggregated over $6,000.

 The days business was not due to there being exceptionally large sin gle deposits, but there were large number, mostly small. Some of them were up to $100 or more. The conditions. at the bank are rapidly as- suming their normal attitude.

George B. Cortelyou is pointed out as
the man who saved the Administration
from at least one deep embarrassment.
A high official of the Tobacco trust
called in person upon him IN New York,
and. after expressing his Breat admira-
ton for President Roosevelt, voluntarily
rendered the chairman of the National
Republican Committee a check well into
the thousands,
Cortelyou astOunded his caller by de-
elining the tender and returning the

President what he had done. He was
warmly thanked, for the President then
learned for the first time that records
at the Department Of Commerce and
Labor indicated that ths corporation
might later be classified as a bad

that papers relating to the Tobacco
Trust were sent TO the Department Of

Mother and Wife Could
Not Conceal Nervous
ness From Which
They Suffered.

NEW YORK, April Some of the
most dramatic incidents Of the trial of
Harry Kendall Thaw occurred imme-
diately preceding and following the filing
with Justice Fitzgerald by the lunacy
commission OF the report OF the investi-
CATION as 10 the sanity Of the accused
slayer Of Stanford White.
Thaw himself was absent when the re-
port was handed 10 Jerome and Hart
ridge IN fact. no public announcement
was made OF the finding of the com
mission. But Immediately on being
handed the folded document, Hartridge
feverishly opened it and ran his eyes
over the contents. O'Reilly and Gleason
eagerly reading over his shoulder.
1t was a rather dramatic moment. Ten
feet behind Thaw's counsel were his
mother. his wife and Alice. Countess Of
Yarmouth. as well as Edward and JO-
siah Thaw The ladies OF the party
plainly showed the strain. They had
waited all morning about the court
room and until PAS in the afternoon had
mustered all their strength for this mo-
ment.
Moments of Awful Suspense.
It meant much to them-almost as
much as the other verdict which cannot
now be greatly delayed. Accordingly,
when from the lips of Justice Fitzgerald
fell the announcement that unani-
nous decision had been reached by the
commission, and ne handed copies Of
the decision TO Jerome and Hartridge,
Mrs William Thaw and Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw gripped the chairs in which they
were seated, their faces became drawn
and painful TO look upon, and their eyes
hungrily gazed on the two sheets of pa
per which fiuttered in the nervous fng-
ers of Hartridge.
Every eye in the courtroom was cen
tered upon the lawyer by this time. and
it seemed to take him hours 10 ind the
little word that spelled the fate OF the
defendant Then. with a deep sigh, his
stern face relaxed. he released the pa
per into the hands of O'Reilly and turn
ed quickly with a smile and nod OF
his head, to the party Of ladies'

Little Mrs. Thaw fell back into her

keep back an exclamation Of satisfac-
