BATTLE OF LAW AND LOVE
IN TRIAL OF HARRY THAW
ASSEEN BY WOMAN WRITER
By DOROTHY DIX.

NEW YORK. Feb. 1.-THE Thaw trial
is like the making or a wonderful mo-
sale. 4 little stone OF evidence, red as
blood, Is brought from the Tenderloin.
Another little stone OF evidence. gray
ana apparently meaningless. Is fetched
from Pittsburg. other bits are brought
over seas from London. Paris or else
where
Sometimes these stones are fetched by
his wife; sometimes by a business man;
sometimes by Il learned scientist; but
day after day they are brought end
lessly and laid down before the jury.
Sometimes it is MIR. Dclmas' hand that
patiently and artisticany places together
the fragments. Sometimes 1t is Mr..
Jerome who knocks them together with
a single sledge-hammcr blow. but al
ways the picture grows-the picture that
nigh; be called Law and Love"
And, as the picture grows, there
stands out of It. more and more dis
tinctly. the figure OF one man. the figure
of a man who was lost and found him
self; the figure of man half distraught.
ard holding only 20 one thing. seeing
only one thing clearly; man who. with
all his faults. has known how TO love
uOuIA- uUseluSulAr supremacy - marry
Thaw.
Surprise of the Trial.
Il is no exaggeratiOn TO say that the
one surprise OF the Thaw case has been
Harry Thaw as he has been revealed In
his attitude toward his wife, and In his
letters, and his most remarkable will.
The world has known him as a waster.
as a spendthrift. as the chief exemplar
Of how wide and how far a reckless
young millionaire can sow a wild oats
crop. but in this trial. in the stripping
bare OF the details Of his life, il has been
shown that he was something else. He
was man who could be loyal and
faithful, who was chivalrous and very
tender. and pit!ful to the weak.
] do not believe that there is a more
miserable man on earth today than
Harry Thaw, but remorse for his crime
has no place in his misery He has no
more regret for having killed Stanford
White than the man who kills a rattle
snake In his garden or shoots down a
wild beast that is trying TO break into
his house

JEROME READS
THA WIS WILL

NEW YORK, Feb I4-The first move
planned by the lawyers for the defense
for tOday-s proceedings was 10 place
in evidence the will Of Thaw. Through
it they will attempt TO prove that the
slayer of Stanford White lived in dread
that he would meet his end at the
hands Of the architect and believed that
his marriage to Evelyn NesbIt was his
death kneI.
The cOdicil TO the Will setting aside
$4,000 to prosecute the person who
would cause his death was signed on
the night Thaw married Evelyn Nesbit
and fOrecasted a tragedy.
The will. which has not yet been read
to the jury, was turned over 10 the
district attorney for examination. and
Jerome and his assistant spent a por-
tion of the night going over H. Il was
believed the defense would have no
difficulty In having the document, which
contains 5000 words, formally admitted
as evidence.
Rivalry Over Evelyn.
Although White is not named in the
codicil. it is clear that Thaw feared
White as the man who might kill him.
was due TO the rivalry over Evelyn
Nesbit. In one part Of the paper Thaw
brands White as a scoundrel, and ac-
cuses him OF having caused the down.
fall of at least eight young girls.
1t was the intention also OF Lawyer
Delmas today, as soon as the will had
been properly placed in evidence. to re-
call Evelyn Nesbit Thaw to the wit
ness stand.
II was declared by the lawyers for the
defense that Mrs. ThaW had not told
one-half of her remarkable story 20 the
jury. that some of the most astounding
revelations are yet to come. II was ex-
pected that Mr.. Delmas would finish
with HIS victims within an hour or two
and that she would then be turned over
20 the district attorney 10 undergo what
Is expected to become one of the most
gruelling examinations on record.
No Fear of Jerome.
This. it is believed by the lawyers for
the defense Will fail in it's purpose and
only serve to bring out more amazing
details which. through modesty, the
strangeness Of her position and the plea
that in her desire to aid her husband
she might by her revelations do him
harm she as kept back.
The distriL, attorney has worked night
and day to prepare himself 10 take up
the examination Of Evelyn Thaw in an
