THAW EXPERTS
Were Under Fire From Disirlct Atl1raey Jerome Again
 To-Day
END NOW IN SIGHT

New York, March 19.-District At torney Jerome at the Thaw trial this morning continued his cross-cxanl- ination of Dr Smith Ely Jelliife. one of the alienists for the defense, who was on the stand yesterday after noon when adjournment. was taken.
 Tn your answer to the liypotheti- cal question. doctor" began MT Jer- ome, did you interpret the question in the light of facts which are out side the question.
 Why. in way certainly an swered Dr Jeliiffe, "any knowledge of the alphabet allowed me to read the question, but there is n othing about that in the question" {.
 v)id you answer it in the light of information furnished you about this defendant not in the hypothetical question:"
 .''I did not"
 Did you have such information?
 s'I did"
 Did you deem this information Of importance?"
 T deemed it of value" . But you excluded these facts in framing your answer?'
 So far as it is possible for the human mind to exclude such things, 1 did. |, I have tried to answer con scientiOusly."
 Mir Jerome produced a book edited by Dr Jelliffe and attempted to, in duce the alienist to admit classifi- cation of insanity contained therein. Mir Jerome took up each class of in sanity mentioned in the book and asked the witness if that was the class of insanity Thaw was suffering from when he shot Stanford White. The witness before answering each question insisted upon reading the descriptions given in the book. The cross-examination dragged along slowly and was something of sur prise in view of Mir Jerome's expedi- tious handling of the experts yester- day.

TENANT MUST SETTLE
For Not Removing Snow from Prop.
 erty Where He Lives.

A case of importance to property owners and rent payers as we'll was tried in the district court to-day bc- fore a jury and Judge George II. Cowell. Thomas Conlong of 96J North Main street. was fined in the city court some time ago. $2 for not cleaning off the sidewalk in front of his rent. He occupied the first floor. From that judgment he took an ap- peal to the district court where he was defended by Attorney T. F. Rogers. Attorney [. G Church, pros- ecuted.
 Officer Thomas McEllig0tt testified that four days prior to January 27, there had been snow storm and Conlong, though warned two or three times. refused to remove the snow from the walk claiming that he lad an agreement with the property owner. Jacob Musler by which ne was relieved of that work. Aasrss.-y
 Conlong was prosecuted under tine ordinance and when the ease began to-day Attorney Rogers entered a .le. murrer on the grounds that the or slinance was Indefinite and that iIn- der it every lawyer in the Odd Eel lows building could he prosecuted for not removing the snow of tha ad. joining sidewalk in case the owners of the building refused to do It. The demurrer was overruled. Judge Coweil remarking that 1t was the province of the supreme court. not the district court to pass upon the constitutional. ty of laws and ordinances.
 There are three tenemcnts in inc building in which Conlong lives. His alleged agreement with Musler about removing the snow was ruled out. The jury was out half an hour and return. cd a verdict of guilty. Sentence was suspended and aotice of appeal tO the supreme court was given. but 1t Is very doubtful if the case will go tO that extent.

 Many Clues.

Dover, Del, March 1s.--Dr Horace N. Marvin, whose four year old son disappeared March {, had an early morning interview with private de- tectives regarding the information received from Erie, Pa, that the m!s- sing child may be in that city. Dr Marvin and the detectives find much dificulty in getting accurate informa- tion from Erie. The detectives be- lieve they are on the track of,the boy. Dr Marvin said to-day:
 ''I have been disappointed so much that do not know what to say about the Erie development 10 looks all right but may turn out another dis appointment. have been urged not to say anything further and to guard my language to the newspapers all though realize that the press of the country Is doing more for me than any other agency"
 Erie. Pa, March 19.-An unidenti- fled passenger alighted from the Buff falo express at this place early to-day and immediately went to police head quarters. where he was closeted sew eral hours with Police Captain Det- gel. Nothing could be learned of the nature of the conference as the prin- cipals refused to talk. but it is be- lieved that the stranger was sent here from Buffalo to ascertain the facts Of the reported finding of the missing Marvin boy. son of Dr Hor- ace \. Marvin of Kitts Hammock, Del.
 The report that young Marvin had been located in Erie gained currency yesterday when an unknown man called on Chief of Police Edward w. Wagner and asked for a photograph of the child or a circular sent out shortly after the boys disappearance, and after studying it while. said that he believed he had good clue to the whereabouts of the lad.
 Chief of Police Wagner then prof. fered the the aid of the police and detective force but this offer was re- fused and the stranger kept the cir cuIar. Nothing has been heard of him since.

DEATHS AND FUNERALS.
We'll Known People Who Have Been Called Away.

Mrs Elizabeth Bergin, widow of the late Martin Bergin. died at S:30 o'clock this morning at the family residence, l02 Walnut street. Her husband died three years ago last December and in March of the fol- lowing year she was taken sick and had not been well since. Mrs Ber- gin is survived by 5 sons. daugh- ters and two sisters, Thomas F., Pat rick. S., undertakers; John J., a mem- her of the police force: Martin, Dan- iel, Annie, a teacher in the Hendricks en school; Margaret, Frances, Eliza beth. teacher in the Driggs school: Jennie: the sisters are Miss Frances Maher, teacher at the Welton school. and Miss Margaret Maher. Mrs Bergin was born near Cashel. Queens county, Ireland, and came to this country with the rest of the family when she was quite young. She was daughter of the late Mir and Mrs Patrick Maher, for years prominent residents of East Main street. Other members of the family who have been called away were William Maher, Edward Maher. Mich- ael Maher and Miss Annie Maher. all prominent citizens in their day and time. Mrs Bergin was an ideal wife and mother. very agreeable neighbor and devout Catholic. She took a deep interest in the moral and secular education of her family and the only thing that worried her when she felt death lurking in her foot steps was how the children. especial- ly the younger ones. would fare when removed from her ministrations. Un- til her health commenced to fail she was a most active woman and while she was not obliged to do it. she took pride in being on hand early every morning to preside at the breakfast table. The church and her own home were about the only places that knew her. She was too busy to de- vote much time to anything else. and it is in those places where her loss will he felt most. She was pleasant. cheerful woman and con- ducted her home in such a manner that her children and those who call cd upon her in a social way from time to time always found it attract i've. not merely on account of ma- terial things. but rather because of the happy disposition and ever buoy ant nature of the kindly soul that will light up that hope no more.
 The funeral win take place at SD o'clock Thursday morning to the Sa- cred Heart church.

vada, It's. 1885 held that an agree
ment before an election to share the
salary and fees Of an Office, in con-
s~ideration of the plaintiffs using his
influence to elect the defendant to such
office, is void: and Leonard, Judge,
in deciding the case, said:
cit is undoubtedly void, as con-
trary to public policy. 1t was in
terms a promise to use not only per-
sOnal effort, but personal influence,
among the voters of Storey County to
secure defendants election. Its in
duence upon plaintiff was the same as
though defendant had promised to
give him a definite sum of money in
case of election. Success would bring
reward, while defeat would result. not
only in loss of coveted profits, but
time and labor as we'll. BY it plain
tiff's love of gain was stimulated, and
a great temptation placed before HIM
to promote his own interest regardless
of public good. This arrangement
may have induced him to influence ten
men, or a hundred, to vote for de-
PENDANT in opposition to pre-conceived
political principles, and fixed ideas of
right and duty: and too, when they
have preferred his opponent as an in
cumbent of the office. Such a contract
cannot be upheld. Its tendency was
to corrupt the people upon whose in
tegrity and intelligence the safety of
the State and Nation depends-to lead
voters to work for individual interest
rather than the public welfare.-Adv.
