since they were selected for trial
service and that Bolton had been
allowed to visit his home only
three times during his wife's fatal ILL
ness lent a pathetic aspect to the mat
ter, and the greatest sympathy was
felt on all sides.
During the brief morning session,
when Bolton had taken his place in
the box, Thaw fixed the juror with his
gaze as he entered. 1t was not a stare
of curiosity or concern as to his own
welfare that the defendant eurned on
the juryman, but there seemed rather
to be light of sympathy in the eyes
of the man accused of murder
DR.. Britton d. Evans was called when
court convened to continue his direct
testimony for the defendant. The wit
ness was asked to detail the conversa-
tfonS he had had on various occasions
with Thaw in the Tombs.
DR.. Evans was about to detail the
events of his first visit, on August 4,
when the summons for juryman Bolton
came.
Mrs. Bolton was then being kept
alive only by the use of oxygen.
In releasing the jurors at the after
noon session, Justice Fitzgerald took
pains to state that the rule keeping
them together had not been adopted on
the separate recommendation of either
side, but was the result of an agree
ment based on reasons which appeared
excellent alike to the interests of the
defendant and the people. There was
intended not the slightest reflection on
the jury in any way.
1t would have been well, Justice Fitz-
gerald said, if the rule could have been
adhered to until the close of the trial.
but the sad incident had brought about
condition which must be confronted.
In announcing the adjournment until
Monday Justice Fitzgerald expressed
the hope that the trial might eventual
ly proceed. He realized. however, that
that would depend largely on the condi-
tion in which Juror Bolton might be If
he felt that he could put aside allpersonal
considerations and continue to act as a
juror, the trial would be resumed If
he feels that his condition of mind is
such, or that his personal affairs are
such as to prevent his giving his whole
attention to the case during the re-
naming days of the trial, some other
solution of the difficulty must be looked
for.

CONGRESS TAKES ACTION
Authorizes President to Exclude Papers

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-Represent-
ative Wharton of Illinois introduced a
resolution in the House today author
izing the President to exclude from the
mails any and all publications con
tanning the revolving details" of the
Thaw case and of cases of similar

The following is the text of the joint

Whereas, the public sense of de-
cency and morality has been grossly
outraged by the publication in detail
of the most revolving features of the
evidence of the trial of Harry K. Thaw,
now in progress In the city of New
York, and which reveals a depth of
moral depravity, degradation and de-
generacy on the part of Stanford White
unequaled in all the annals of our
criminal history, and
Whereas, the publication in detail
of the loathsome and licentious acts
of the said Stanford White in a long
and uninterrupted career of debauchery
of girlish virtue and chastity, must of
necessity have a demoralizing infu-
ence upon the youth of the land, there
fore. be it
Resolved, by the Senate and House,
that as protection to the honor and
the good name of the womanhood of
America, the President of the United
States is hereby authorized and en-
powered to exclude from the mails of
the United States any and all publica-
tions containing the revolving details
of this case and others of similar ma
ture."

United States District Attorney for the

a letter OF warning to the newspapers
of his district with reference to the
publication of the Thaw trial proceed
ings. Atwell says:
THE nauseating testimony of a wit
ness in the Thaw case now being tried
in New York, in my opinion, is super
lative obscenity, and the statute in re-
gard to 1T the Federal courts have
so repeatedly upheld. The reproduction
of further testimony giving rise to

BOSTON, Feb. 14-Before some of
the most prominent educators of the
country and men and women distin-
guished in ali professions, President
Charles ". Eliot of Harvard went on
record at the Twentieth Century Club
today as favoring a separation of the
white and negro pupils, not alone in
the schools Of Boston, but even the
students at Harvard University.
The address was occasioned by a dis
cussion of the present condition of af-
fairs at Berean College, in Eastern
Kentucky. President Eliot said:
"If we had very large negro popu-
lation in Boston we would have sep
arate schools for them, feeling that
this would be better, and if one-half
of the student body at Harvard were
negroes perhaps we should also sep
arate them over there. There is lots
TO be said in favor Of separation"
